AH the bVoo in your body passes through your kidneys or.oe every three minutes. ^ The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil- I) ter out w aste or ‘ impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. I Pains, aches and rheu- uJ matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney tr - ible. Kidney ^rouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, md makes one feel as though tney had ncart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned biocd through veins and arteries. I. used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin- aitig *n kidney trouble.

Edgar Howe Forlmsh, New England agent for the National Association of Audubon Societies, makes a plea for the protection of birds. Mr. Forbush says: “Sixty to seventy years ago "n>e:i winged teal were abundant In New England. Now they are rare. Fif ty years ago blue winged teal were plentiful. Now they are few. Forty years ago the wood duck bred com monly throughout the New Euglaud staies. Now it is in danger of extermi- n ition. Already most of the states and provinces of North America have awak ened to the necessity of protecting wild fowl in spring, but Massachusetts and Rhode Island lag far behind the leader; in this movement Fully thirty species of wild fowl that normally visit these states have practically no protection un der the law. The statutes ^re so ar ranged as to allow the shooting of some of these birds during every month of the year, while others are protected only when they are out of the state.” LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION- State of South Carolina, County of Cherokee.

About eigh teen months ago I had grown so much worse that I could not digest a crust of corn bread and could not retain anything on my stomach. I lost 25 lbs.; in fact I made up my mind that I could not live but a short time, when a friend of mine recom mended Kodol. I consented to try it to please him and I wag better in ou tlay. i now weigh more than I ever did in my life and am in better health than for many yean.

Interesting Paragraphs Penned by School Boy.” Draytonvllle, Mar. 24.—The weath er at present is very unfavorable and the farmers will have to discontinue their plowing for a few days or ’mtil the ground will do to plow. Your correspondent and his fr' * 1 * * * d, Mr. Logan Jenkins, had the pleasure of attending services at Mt. Ararat last Sunday. Rev. Mr. Hoke deliver ed another one of his good and theolog ical sermons to a very large congre gation. Mr. Hoke is one of Blacks burg’s good ministers and a man of great influence. Mr. and Mrs. Adolphus Phillips and children spent last Sunday in Gaff ney with Mr. and .Mrs. Sol Phillips. Messrs. Willie Huskey and Stain- ly Wilson were appointed delegates to represent Draytonvllle Sunday school in the convention at Abingdon Creek next Sunday. Mr. Paul Bridges and sister, Miss Mae, of Corinth, attended religious services at Ararat last Sunday and spent an enjoyable afternoon with Mr. Claude and Miss Nellie Hammett. Mr. Bart Parker, of Gaffney, spent Saturday night with his father, Mr. A. J. Parker, at this place. We notice in last Friday’s issue of The Ledger that Mr. J. L. S. gave another good lecture to the girls and we hope they will take and live it. We hope that he will give the boys one after he gets through with the young married folks as we think that another one to the boys will help them. There are some boys who are very hard headed and it seems libe they can not be taught how to do. Some will disobey their parents and hunt on Sunday as well as any day of the week and do other things that they should not do. Ben Hope, we are glad that you are well pleased with your letter party and we hope that you will have the opportunity to have many more like that one. We read your good letters to The ledger and we hope that you will meet with great success in every thing you undertake. The school at Pondfleld will close next Friday and we are informed that there will be some good speakers present as well as the children’s ex ercises and as your correspondent has an invitation we will try and give a report of the exercises. The Ever green school also closes on that day and the teacher, Miss Sallie Huggins, has an invitation to carry her school to the closing exercises of the Pondfleld school. Mr. John Rains, of Gaffney, was a visitor in our Sunday school last Sun day and spent the day with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Rains. Miss Ola Bailey is spending a few days with relatives in North Carolina this week. Some of the people of this section planted corn and did some gardening last week and we think that they will have to replant before the montn of April passes. Wle notice that some of the corres pondents ask some clock* problems and we wish to ask one. Here is the problem: Mr. B. always goes to bed and gets up on the hour, if the hour hand of the cock, when he goes to bed, is exactly opposite to its position when he gets up, how long does he rest?. Mr. B. eats his meals when the hands are exactly perpendicular (whether opposite to each other or together). Give his breakfast, lunch and dinner hours. Mr. and Mrs. Calep Spencer spent Saturday night with relatives at Cherokee Falls and returned home Sunday afternoon. The month of April will soon enter upon its record and we presume the boys and girls will keep their mall carriers very busy carrying “April fools” as well as post cards. What State contains a great coun try, a savage and a goddess? We often think if there are as good statesmen in our State at present as there were in formation of this State. When we read the history of South Carolina we find the names of a good many great men such as Pickneys, Laurens, Drayton, McDuffie, Calhoun and others too numerous to mention, whose services were given to make this State one of the greatest in the Union. We, are too weak to say and we will leave this question to be answered by some one else who may know and will express his opinion on this great question. We thought last Friday when the cold rain began to freeze and the snow began to fall, that the fruit would all be killed but glad to say that it did not injure it very much We heard one man say that if the fruit was not billed he did not know what would kill it. Fruit is a great food and when this crop is destroyed there are a good many people with hearts full of sorow, but the one that gives us the fruit knows best in all things. .Mr. Cleve Phillips is working at his saw mill while the ground is too wet to run his plows. , Our champion cow trader says ne has seen enough of his business writ ten in the paper by our pen and wants us to discontinue writing about him. We don’t know his reasons, but we presume we are hurting his business and we have decided to stop until he does something else. George is a good fellow and we like to meet him, especially when we have a good joke on him. “C.,” we are glad to have you come back to Ravenna as we hope you will give us the news from that section. We thought, as it was leap year, some girl had took you and left for some other section and would not let you come back home. We are gald to say that Mr. Forest Huggins has recovered from a serious illness and is going about. He went to Gaffney last Saturday and attended services at Ararat Sunday. He looks as well as ever and says he feels all right, but does not want to go about too much until he thinks he is out of danger Mc/and Mrs. Will Gaffney, of Gaff ney/ visited Mrs. Gaffney’s mother, Mrs. Martha Macomson. last Sunday. Wle hear some people say that it would be better to have the sale of whiskey restored bach into the coun ty of Cherokee. They say that there would be more money for the educa tion of the children and It would help in other ways. We know that there would be more money for educating the boys and girls but we do not want tc get our education with the money that was given for that cursed drink called corn liquor, or any other kind. If the sale of whiskey should be re established there would be homes of eternal ruin and furthermore, there would be homes that where the child ren are getting an education at pre sent, would not get to see the inside of a school room, much less having a primary book to learn their letters. We will be glad when the day comes that whiskey will not be allowed to enter the State of South Carolina and all the whiskey houses in the other States are done away with. Mr. and Mrs. R. S- Spencer made a buStness trip to Gaffney last Satur day. While we were in town last Satur day we could not hear anything but something about the low price of cot ton. We say, let the people who are not able to hold their cotton sell it and those who are able and can hold it, let it stay in their warehouses as long as they want to and then sell it. The mills can not run without cotton and they are shutting down to a few days a week now, so those who are able to hold cotton, just hold on and when they see that you are going to be “boss dog of the boneyard,” they will give you a better price for your cotton ai d not before. Mr. William Owensby, of Cherokee Falls, attended service here last Sat urday night. A young man walked up to us last Saturday and said that he was afraid that we would mention the way in which he respected some young ladies one Sunday, and said that he was ashamed of the way he did and was going to stop it. We hope all of the boys will take this step and be more polite toward the young Iqdies and the older ones, too. Be polite to all, bys. Wte notice in the paj ers that Sen ator Ben R. Tillman and William Jen nings Bryan are very ill and that they are in a very critical condition. We hope they will have a speedy re covery. We often hear people speaking of which Is the best paper published in Cherokee county and we find that they have different opinions, but when the subject is brought before us to express our opinion, we give tl\em the understanding that we stick to the one published by Editor De- Camp. We tell them when the other papers get to be better than ours, then we will pull away from The Led ger and not before. We heara one fellow say -that he would rather give one dollar and fifty cents for our pa per than to give fifty cents for the other papers that are published in our county. We take pleasure in thank ing the boys of The Ledger for the way they treat us and the “Old Man” for giving us space in his commena- able paper for our letters. ■Wishing The Ledger and all of Its readers success.

The two soldiers came to the ground, ..locked in a mutual em brace; and, for a brief moment, a des perate trial of strength was exhibit ed in the effect to gain their feet. “I have you the^” said Robinson, as at length, with a flushed cheek, quick breath, and blood-shot eye, he rose from the earth and shook the dragoon from him, who fell back wards on his knee. “Curse you James Curry, for a fool and villain!

Again and again, the clamorous cheering of the victors broke forth from the mountain-top, and echoed’ along the neighboring valleys. During this wild clamor pnd busy movement, a party of horsemen were seen, through the occasional intervals of the low wood that skirted the val ley on the right, hastening from the field with an eager swiftness towards the spot where Mildred and her com panions were stationed.
