Last year a newly settled jdace was tenanted by a family who along about Christinas moved away. A colored family lives there now. During the whiter trees, some shrub ery and rose bushes were planted out ! in the yard, and there are to he seen other evidences of improving and beautifying the premises. Tile Itliail to Success.

For months at a lime I had backache, Often so severe as to lay me up. A sharp pain caught me across the small of my back when I attempted to stoop and was. so Intense that I had to cry out. 'The kidney secretions were too frequent in pas sage, particularly at night and at times contained much sediment. 'The various remedies I used brought me no apparent benefit and when I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised, I pro cured a box at the Palmetto Drug Co. After taking them a short time.
