STUDENTS OF STATE COLORED
COLLEGE JUMP FROM SECOND
STORY TO SAVE THEIR LIVES.
Orangeburg, March 20:?Forty-six
teachers and students were injured
at an early hour this morning, when
the administration building, the
greater part of which was used as a
girls' dormitory,of the State Colored
college,was totally destroyed by fire.
Several are considered in a very crit
ical condition, and it is feared that
two are fatally injured.
It seems that the fire,the origin of
which is not known, had gained considerable
headway before discovery,
making it rather difficult for the occupants,
about 350, to escape, and in
the excitement many jumped from
the second story. Only a very small
part of the contents was saved, and
the majority of the students lost
their clothes.
Everything possible is being done
for the relief of the injured ones and
the care of the others. Eight physicians
were pressed into service this
morning, and they were kept busy
several hours attending the injured.
A part of the president's house was
made into an improvised hospital,
and the relief work was carried on
with as much dispatch as possible.
Some of the students were Riven
temporary quarters in a dormitory
at Claflin university, which adjoins
the State college, while temporary
accommodations were secured elsewhere
for some of the others. President
Wilkinson states that arrangements
will be made to provide for
the studeqts, so as not to interrupt
their work any more than necessary.
Some will be allowed to go home
long enough to replenish their wardrobes.
The building, which was a large
two-story brick structure, and contents
were valued at approximately
$60,000. About half of this is covered
by insurance.

TALK Of fSESGHBOH^OOii.
Hunfsville, Alabama, Woman Gains Twentyseven
Pounds on Three Bottles
of Tanlac.
SUFFERED FOR YEARS.
|
Was Twice Examined and Each Time
Was Told Operation Would be
Her Only Hope.
"I have just finished my third
nf TWilne and have eained
twenty-seven pounds," was the truly
remarkable statement made by Mrs
Chas Pedden, who resides at 550
Mill St, Huntsville, Ala. Mrs Penden
is one of the best known and
highly respected women of that
thriving little city, where she has
made her home for a number of
years.
"When I commenced taking Tanlac,
"she continued,"I weighed only
ninety-eight pounds; now I weigh
one hundred and twenty-five pounds
and never felt letter in my life.
For years I have suffered with a
bad form of stomach trouble, constipation
and pains in my side and
back. At times the pains took the
form of torture, and I was twice
examined and each time I was told
that I had appendicitis and that an
operation would be my only hope.
I had fallen off until I only weighed
ninety-eight pounds and was so

"I had no appetite at all scarcely
and what little I did eat would cause
gas to form in my stomach, which
gave me palpitation of the heart,
sick headaches and a dizzy feeling
about the head. When these spells
came on me I would get awfully
nervous. I worried about myself
till I could rest and sleep but little.
"1 had fallen off until I was almost
'skin and bones' and my
strength and energy were slowly
leaving me. I had a dread of the
future and could see nothing hut
the operating table and the knife.
I had a perfect horror of an operation,
but had made up my mind
that it was either life or death and
prepared to submit to it. I had
made all preparations for the operation
and called on my sister to tell
her good bye and I did not know
whether I would live to sye her
again or not. My sister begged and
pleaded with me not to allow them
to cut on me and told me to wait
and try a good tonic for a while.
The next day as 1 returned from
the consultation room I thought of
* * 1 1 Till ] ?
what sne saiu,ana,as i nau iieuru ?u
much about Tanlac I decided to try
it as a last resort and stopped at
Gilbert's drug store and got a little.
Of course I had lost heart and
had no faith in the medicine, but to
please my sister I made up my mind
to take it,and, oh,what a happy day
that was for me!
4 41 never returned for the operation
but just kept taking Tanlac.
Right from the start I Ixigan feeling
better. The medicine seemed to take
hold right at once. It had a soothing
effect and in a few days I felt no pain
at all. #I was so happy over the wonderful
improvement in my condition
that I sent for my neighbors to
tell them how much better I felt.
I sent and got another bottle of Tanlac,
and have just finished taking
my third lx)ttle and feel like I have
been made all over again into a new
woman.
4 4As I have said l>efore, I now
weigh 125 pounds and my improvement
has Wn so rapid that none
of my clothes are big enough for me.
I will have to make them all over
again. I now have a ravenous appetite
ami my husband says 1 am
simply eating him out of house and
home. I have even gone back to
my coffee, which I was told not to
touch. Those terrible pains in my
back and head have all disappeared
and 1 sleep like a child. I am no
longer nervous and when I get up
in the mornings I feel refreshed,
cheerrul and bright. 1 am jiow
able to attend to my household duties
and I feel as if I had started
life all over again. My husband is
highly delighted and my recovery is
the talk of the neighlnwhood. I do
nothing but rejoice all day long over
the recovery of my health and I
praise Tan lac to everybody.
| "I feel so grateful for my escape
from the operating table and the
knife that you may publish what I
have said; you may, if you wish,
tell other women suffering as I was
to come to me and I will he glad to
ten tnem an aoout my ease.
Tanlac, the master medicine, is
sold exclusively by Kingstree Drugi
Co, Kingstree; price, SI per bottle, j
straight.
The only satisfaction some married
women have is that they are
not spinisters. J
It makes no difference whose j1
name is on the safe provided you '
hold the combination.
