Attorney-at-law - Barnwell, S. C.
Mr. Teagle, president of .New Jer-
rey Standard Oil, warns oil men that
'hey are cutting their own throats.
This country is treating thp nation’s
rij wealth as unintclltgentlyront-
^rsjnen treated The herdjtrof bison.
Therl)isons soon \anished.
Oil is actually being sold for less
than it cost* to produce, cheerful for
l uyers, but it will not last.
Millions arc spent developing nev
v/clls to increase competition while
c il companies are carrying 530 000.009
barrels of oil stored above gnund
-Tt an annual cost, loss and waste of
$13(7,000.000.
——
The country’s national oil wealth,
is not merely private wealth. —
It is a great national asset and
a way should lie found to give oil
production some national control and
stop waste. -
You are told many things about
prohibition, for and against. R. H.
Davidson, writing from Coronado

cent per annum since prohibition
came ?’’

Everybody will agree that 400 per
cent more shoes for children, com
bined with larger savings bank de
posits, is a strong argument for pro
hibition, assuming those things to be
results of pfohilation.
Those that would modify the Vol-
*trad Act say the average man is
earning a!>ont twice v hat he earned
l-r fore the war. and increased earn
ings, not the absence of beer, explain
greater savings and more children’s
shoes. •
A coal -trike of a sort was start
ed last week in whaf is called “the
emtral cumnetitive field.’’ Union
men in the North cannot compere
with non-union men farther South. -
The alleged attempt to reduce wag
es in the North would cause still
further reduction of wages in the
South. Industry and business are nor
civilr/ed while it is ncCCsaary for
employes to engage^in periodical hat-
iIcn. at the expense of the workers’
wives and children, to decide what is
fair pay. Some impartial third par
ty should fix wages. The public pays
in the price of coal.

CANCER
We Cannot know too much about
things that concern life itself. This
terrible disease always strikes ter
ror in the heart of its victim as
well as in the minds of those who
love, or are called to minister to
him. Hence, this brief article. ..
We know that cancer is not com-
inWcable—and that it is not His-,
tinctly hereditary, though .the “ten
dency” may belong to certain fam
ilies. 1 have noticed that florid
complexions are more Fable to skin
malignancy than the medium; and
that the very dark individuals are
moro^ofton afflicted with malig
nant growths ofythe internal or
gans. In either instance, continual
irritation is the thing that bring
cancer info activity. Hence, peo
ple with cancer-tendcncics muT
avoid all things that set up con
tinual irritation; a pipe-stem or
cigar; a stiff, hard, hat; a corset
-that exerts pressure in some par
ticular locality; a rectal grqwt.x
simple at first, may become mriig
nant by constant irritation; the
eating of strong condiments, pep
per. catsup, or other active irri
tants of the gastric membrane
lining, continued for years, nia;
hasten a malignant condition.
In, this terrible disease, an ounc?
of prevention is worth many
pounds of cure.. May I insist upon
the well-known axiom that, «uc-
cess with career depends upon it-
early recognition. Treatment here
may wrll h^gin when r ■<n?sn : cion
■ cf the disease is aroused. Often to
await ♦h 1 ' pn.-itive dkrgnosi- is too
lat'X Instant removal is th° only
*afo way, if removal h~ pos ible.
No mc*t»r what faddists may ,e-
ciu-e, we know this Is th“ best po—
advie**. After remov::l, the
X-ray or Raiiium becomes a Got!-
-errl. I k*ow of nnny cares hap'
pily cureil by this Kr.e <f action,
I have never knt.wn any other wa>
for a cure to br po«sibl -

Hurry* Worry and Overwork Bring
Heavy Strain.
M ODERN life throw* a heavy
burden on our bodily ma-
> chinery. The eliminative organs, es
pecially the kidney*, are apt to be
come sluggish. Retention of excess
uric acid and other poisonous waste
often gives rise to a dull, languid
feeling and, sometimes, toxic back
aches and headaches. That the kid
neys are not functioning perfectly is
often shown by burning or scanty
passage of secretions. More and
more people are learning to assist
their kidneys by the occasional use
of Doan’s Pills—* stimulant diu-
redc. Ask your neighborl
