ADMONISHED TO PRAY
Chief Bateman Receives Anonymous
Letter and Suspects Leave
Kingstree's fearless and efficient
Chief of Police received an annonymous
letter through the mail last
week in which the writer admonished
him to "pray and prepare to meet
his brothers." Chief Bateman has
made an efficient officer since he has
been on the force anil it is inconceivable
as to why anyone should attempt
to scare or coerce him by such underhanded
or cowardly means. A few
nights ago some colored men were
arrested and locked in the guard
house. It is not known whether or
not they had anything to do with the
sending of the annonymous letter, but
anyway there, suddenly arose considerable
excitement late Friday night
and a crowd of twenty or twenty-five
men gathered around the guard house
with the apparent intention of dealing
with the suspects. Mayor Shuler was
summoned and the men were tried
and advised to leave town without delay.
They are said to have left without
waiting for the next train. They
were not molested by the crowd.
o
New Phone Directory
The Kingstree Telephone Company
have just issued a new directory

these new directories in hand and if

the same they are urged to notify
central office and it will be promptly
supplied.

MRS. CATHEY TELLS OF RESULTS
TANLAC GAVE
("It Sure Is Fine"
Anderson Woman Says She is Glad
To Recommend it Publicly
"I am glad to recommend Tanlac
to the public, for it has done so
much to give back health to my boys
and girls and other relatives. It
sure is a fine medicine," declared i
Mrs. Josephine Cathey, of No. 12 R
Street, Anderson, in a statement she
gave Maq 25, 1917. Her husband
a daughter, a son and daughter-in
law, Mrs. Cathey said, had all been
greatly helped by Tanlac.
"My husband suffered from indigestion
and he was troubled a lot
with headaches, and also his appe- i
tite was bad. He complained fre- 1
quently of being weak and run down.
My daughter, Mattie, had about the
same trouble her father did?indigestion,
nervousness and terrible 1
headaches. Mr. Cathey thinks Tanlac
is a mighty fine medicine, for it
helped him so much. Now he never
complains of his troubles for which
he took Tanlac, and Tanlac got him
in fine shape. The Tanlac just made
a new person of my daughter Mattie,
and soon had her in fine health. It
sure is one more good remedy. One
of my married boys and his wife also
took Tanlac and it helped them a
lot."
Tanlac, the master medicine, is
sold by Kingstree Drug Co., Kingstree;
Farmer's Drug Co., Hemingway;
S. S. Aronson Lanes; R. P.
Hinnant Suttons; W. D. Bryan,

WHY IS A
HEADACHE?
Various Causes For This Common
Affliction
ANEMIA OR BLOODLESSNESS A
VERY COMMON CAUSE
Pepto-Mangan Overcomes Anemia j
And Tends to Prevent Headaches
When one has an occasional headache
it is usually due to some transient
or passing cause, such as indigestion,
eyestrain, over-tiredness,
etc. When, however, one suffers from
frequent periodic headaches there is
always some special reason for it.
Among the most common of such
reasons is Anemia or Bloodlessness.
This condition is especially frequent
among girls and young women and
those whose occupations or habits of
life keep them too much indoors.
The one important necessity in such
cases is to build up the quantity and
quality of the weak and watery
blood. Gude's Pepto-Mangan is exceptionally
valuable for this purpose.
It increases the number and improves
the quality of the red blood cells,
those vital little bodies which carry
nutrition to all parts of {he body. It
improves the appetite, imparts color
to the face, and restores health and
strength to the body generally. After
a short course of Pepto-Mangan
the headaches decrease in frequency
and severity, and finally disappear,
if they are due to Anemia. PeptoMangan
may be had either in liquid
or tablet for, as preferred. When
buying Pepto-Mangan be sure the
name "Gude's" is on the package.
With out '"Gude's" it is not PeptoMangan.
