?1jp County Urrcrh. KINQSTREE. S. O. THURSDAY, NOV. 9.1916. A Miserable Fluke. The proposal bolt from the Deni. ocratie State ticket in South Carolina Tuesday turned out t<> l?e a miserable Huke. W e do not l?elieve that it could have succeeded in any circumstances. In the glaring publicity which was ]H>ured upon it it had no chance to make any sort of headway. Men who were counted upon to distribute the tickets substituting Mr I>!ea>e for that of Mr Manning flung tiie tickets from them as if pestilential. The Democrats of South Carolina have handled this matter as it deserved to l?e handled. They will not soon forget that it was left to the voters at the polls to repudiate this undertaking.?Xetcsand Courier NEWS NOTES FROM LAKE CITY. Successful Chautauqua?Visiting Minister?Personal. Lake City, NovembersMrs Pauline Keels, who has been in bad health for 9ome time, was taken to Johns Hopkins hospital, Baltimore, ome days ago. She was accompanied by Dr C D Rollins. Dr Jerome, an Episcopal minister of Detroit, Mich, preached an excellent sermon Sunday night at the Baptist church. He had a good large audience, and the very thoughtful address was much appreciated. Many pronounced it one of the finest sermons they ever heard. X lit? UUHUUlllllUil, nuivii 1IIU through Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, was quite a success. The sessions, two in number each day, were well attended, and the several nu mbers of the programme were excellent. Those taking part were lecturers, musicians, readers, etc. The manager was Dr Culp, of Chicago University. It would be of little interest to the public to have an enumeration of the various features of the sessions.

The gates to the big fair swung: wide open at 9:30 o'clock yesterday ( morning to admit a seething mass of humanity which had gathered early in front of them all eager to ! gain admittance that they might ntMc nnnn tlio hit/orpQf 1CAOI lliru V.C.I up?/u VHV ; and best to . e seen ar a county fair. The day dawned with al) of the glorious beauty and splendor of an autumn season and doubtless infused 1 into the hundreds of pleople who awoke yesterday morning and rub- , bed their sleepy eyes, with a new animation and made them feel that I life is truly worth while. For several days prior to the open- i | ins: yesterday, enthusiasm ran high, , i and the people seemed indifferent i to everything else, so notable was this indifference that many of them hereabouts forgot that Tuesday was J election day and failed to deposit a ballot for Wilson and Manning. f Governor Richard I Manning ar- ( rived at 11:00 o'clock yesterday and delivered the opening address at noon to a large and interested crowd < i comnosed of the cream of Williams- < burg's citizens. The Governor's address was along thoroughly practical lines, directed chiefly to the farming element. He told them of the approach of the : boll weevil and the attending dangers that may be expected as a re- i suit of this most notorious "bug's" arrival in South Carolina. For some reason or another the parade was a fizzle. There was none, j I for everybody in town went to the j fair grounds early and those that came in from the country seemed to be bent in the same direction, and 1 really there was nobody left to make | up a parade. Everybody was on the ground by 10:00 o'clock and there ; was so much to see that there was i no time for joining a mere street parade. j What is there to interest one? Well, go and see! But we will say here by way of information that you will see what can be produced in this i county, perhaps in your own neigh- i borhood in the way of live stock and farm products in an astounding variety. We would advise our farmer < friends, everyone in Williamsburg, to i make a careful and thorough survey of the booths of Messrs R B Fitch, ' W 0 Camlin, S A and J C Graham, j and there may be other individual j exhibits equally as interesting. Then , j there are the different school dis | plays, and they are superb,but, you'll 1 have to see these to appreciate the work the schooi boys and girls of j Williamsburg county are doing along s , agricultural end industrial lines. I i Any one of the school exhibits is ' J worth a visit to the fair. Among the schools having booths i j are Heinemann, Mulberry, Wayside. Hebron. Hemingway. Johnsonville, j I J? o n- : -J v: I I L/tfUHr owamp, uimuj auu rvm^an cc. There is a department of fancy work, and the exhibits are of such a ] high order that even a man of coarsest grain would have to stop still and j take notice, not merely because the ,' department represents the work of' the deft and dainty fingers of thei gentler sex, but because of the ex- | quisite beauty of each and every j piece of work displayed there. The display by the Indiantown; demonstration club is highly credit-: able as a community exhibit, while: < the home demonstration work de- i partment by Miss Amanda Edwards, I county agent,is second in importance 1 only to the farm demonstration de- I partment by County Agent C W Ba- 1 ker. These departments clearly point i the way to better and more econom- t ical living. 1 The boys' corn club department is 1 worthy of careful note by every boy t in the county. There he will get new t ideas and valuable information. t Outside the administration build- r ing one will find the poultry and live s stock exhibits, representing some 1 wonderful improvements in the class i of horses, cows and bogs that are I now being raised in the county. r In the big arena yesterday the t horse and mule shows were excellent. The animals shown were chiefly j county raised, and were well worthy of the attention they received. There is a large and up-to-date k carnival, the Sibley Greater Shows, t on the grounds?a merry-go-round, ii Ferris wheel, wheels of fortune and 11 other shows and devices too numer- I h nus for us to enumerate here. Then s there are the little diving pony and ! ii dogs, which especially interest the c children. 11 If you have not already visited the t fair, you should do so tomorrow? c Educational day - which promises to be the greatest day in the history of s the county from an educational;! standpoint. Come, you will find a c hearty welcome by all. .( FINDS SUBSTITUTE FOR "FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH," Mrs Lee, Though Much Older, Says She Now Feels Like "Sweet Sixteen," ONCE SUFFERED MUCH. Gains Thirty-live Pounds?Took Tanlac and Says It Broke up Her Ills. "I weighed ninety pounds when I began hiking Tanlac, and T now weigh 12"? pounds,'' declared Mrs Annie Lee, of 41"> Pall Mall St, Colutnbia, in a statement she recently gave in endorsement of Tanlac, "'the National Tonic," which she took a year ago and which restored her health. One year after she took Tan lacMrs Lee gave the following endorsement of the remedy which gave her juch remarkable results. Her statement follows: "Before I took Tanlac I suffered from nervousness, and this trouble was very bad. Also, my system in general was run down and weakened. I was so nervous that I would jump if anyone spoke when I was not expecting it or if anyone knocked on the door. I had no appetite at all, and really I did not eat as much as a cat. My strength had almost left me and I could hardly walk across the floor, I was so weak and nervous. I suffered awfully with headaches and it seemed that nothing would stop them. I could not sleep at all hardly and a few minutes after I would get to sleep I would jump and l>e wide awake. There was very little rest for me at night. In general, I felt badly all the time. "I bought Tanlac because I had heard so much al>oiit it, and I took four bottles. That was a year ago,^ and I feel as well now as when I quit taking Tanlac. I was a well woman when the fourth bottle was gone, so great was the results Tanlac gave me. "The Tanlac helped me so much that I feel like I was sixteen years of age now, though I am much older than that. I weighed ninety jiounds when I began taking Tanlic, but now I weigh 125 pounds (a gain i?f 35 pounds or more). My rterves ure fine now and I feel well. "I am always glad to recommend Tanlac and I do so because it is a remarkable medicine, and it did all I could want it to do for me. It just broke up my troubles. It has been a year since I took Tanlac and 1 feel as fine now as I did when 1 quit taking it." Tanlac, the master medicine, is sold by Kingstree Drug Co, Kingstree; Mallard Lumber C<>, Greelyville; Farmers' Drug Co, Hemingway; S S Aronson, lane; R P Hinnant, Buttons; \V D Rryan, Bryan. The Truluck-Cook Co will have a fresh car of high class horses and mules here Saturday. If you want live stock call on this hrm. BE CAREFUL AFTER FEVER, COLO OR GRIP. Many Fatal Cases of Kidney Trouble Can be Traced to Some Infectious Disease. Colds, fevers and infectious diseases very often leave the kidneys .veak. So little attention is given the kidneys during recovery from the original trouble that a severe attack of kidney disease often follows. Sere's how it happens. The kidneys ire worked hard enough in healthy times. They have to filter the blood. n any germ disease the blood is oaded with extra poisons made by the disease germs. This overwork ends to weaken the kidneys.
