HEARN Editor and Publisher. )88 WELCOME THE STRANGER rill "But the stranger that dwelleth * with you shall be as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself." Quoting this passnge from the holy writ, Clarence Poe, editor of nThe Progressive Farmer, makes out a strong case for the new tenant or ^ renter in a community. He says: 2 "We hope, therefore, that a hearty I j welcome will be given to all new I tenants or renters in your communiII tv. It. 1R rnnnifoaf fV*of ?a Sunday School can neglect giving such a welcome if it is worthy of the name Christian, nor can any individual of generous spirit neglect this duty. And ?ven if you find cases where the parents seem shiftless and ! caroless do not lose faith in the chil dre. Moreover, if there is a spark of race pride in your being, never let yourself utter the most discreditable I phrase that is common in the south ?' poor white trash.' Rather let us remember that the index to the power and frbssibilities of every boy and girl is found, not in the achievements i or non-achievements of two or three | immediate ancestors, but is found in his or her racial heritage; let us reB member that in the blood of every child born of our race there beats the spirit of the long, long centuries of toil and struggle, achievement, disciplin, moral restraint and spiritual aspiration which make up the g body of Caucasian civilization, and ino one knows when or where or in whom the genius of that race may again 'burst full-blossomed on the thorny stem of time.' "Welcome these stranger-chidren into your Sunday school, and the parents into your church and Sunday school, and farmer's club, and ask for their cooperation in everything that makes for education, co-operation and and progress in the community." That cartoon in the State last h a nui v waa tit iCilM run I LTUC. It S ? legend read: "Aunt Samuella Runs W Things," and pictures women voting and the men looking on with their * arms full of babies, etc. It is pretty w generally conceded that the good 9 women of the West elected Mr. Wil9 son and The Advertiser is thoroughly V satisfied with the start "Aunt Samuj| ella" has made at running things. More power to her elbow! _ The Ohio Republicans are said to have spent about $400,000 to beat Wilson and yet he carried that normal Republican State by a good majority. The Republican State Committee spent seven times as much as the Democrats spent. Four hundred thousand dollars ought to have bought a great many Buckeyes. THE PRIMARY A SACRED OBLIGATION The Augusta Chronicle comments upon this paragraph from The Columbia State: "The democrats of South Carolina may be depended upon. They do not I take oaths it, nrimarv election* | break them. They preserve their self I respect. They do not play fast and ! loose with matters of sacred obligation." The Chronicle says "the editor of The State in speaking of the steadfastness of his own people, while not intending to do so, probably, hits at a situation in Georgia. A situation, which by the way, must be handled without gloves." """ The situation in Georgia is. in this "* respect, deplorable. The recent election in Georgia was a notable example of broken faith by several thousand voters who went into the so-called Democratic primary but in the general election voted the Republican ticket. This was done too, at the instance of a leader who prior to the convention proclaimed what "we Democrats" would do. That leader in his paper, The Jeffersonian, threatened that if the chairman of the Democratic State Committee should do certain things and should not do certain things he would be lynched. Wilson was abused like a pick-pocket up to the last week before the presidential plantmn ""'J II- 1 1 * ' v.wwvri. onu uukiicb was neia up as a saint. Is it any wonder that The Chronicle should demand that this political * furce should cease and that none but Democrats should participate in the Democratic primaries? By the way, The Chronicle in a recent issue illustrated the hopelessness s' of trying to convert to Democracy some of the followers of this designing leader. . It happened at the polls. A voter was slowly spelling out one of the amendments to be voted on. It referred to ships engaged in foreign commerce. The word "foreign" was enough for him. "I'm agin foreign missions," and he marked out the dangerous amendment. Another was ? being persuaded to vote for Wilson. r. He said: "I know Wilson has kept us out of war and he has made us a good president, but I can't abide of his being a * Catholic" (!)

One day he remarked to one of his sons: "Can you tell me the reason why the lions didn't eat Daniel?" "No, sir. Why was it?" "Becanse the most of him was backbone and the rest was grit." "Do you believe it is unlucky to marry on Friday?" "Why should Friday be an exception?" A THOROUGH TEST One To Convince the Most Skeptical Chesterfield Reader. The test of time is the test that counts. Doan's Kidney Pills have made their reputation by effective action. The following case is typical: Chesterfield residents should be convinced. The testimony is confirmed?the proof complete. Testi- | mony like this cannot be ignored. J. N. Stricklin, editor of Chronicle, Green St., Cheruw, S. C., nays: "I have used Doan's Kidney Pills ^ for kidney trouble and a lame and aching back and they have given me the best of relief. I have found them 4 to be just as represented and I consider them a fine kidney medicine." (Statement given in Dec. 1910.) J On December, 10, 1914, Mr. Strick- * lin said: "I still use Doan's Kidney Pills whenever I need a kidney medieine and they always benefit me." ? Price 50c, at all dealers.

Wouldn't Take i S 10,000 For The Good It Did Her GEORGIA WOMAN GAINS TWENTY POUNDS ON FOUR BOTTLES OF TANLAC\ SHE SUFFERED 15 YEARS DOCTORS HAD TOLD HER THAT NO MEDICINE WOULD DO HER ANY GOOD "I have pained twenty pounds since taking Tanlac and my improvement in every way has been so great that when I stand before the looking-glass I am actually amazed and hardly know myself," was the remarkable statement made by Mrs. Elizabeth Jennings, of Hephzibah, Ga., to the Tanlac representative at Howard's Drug Store, at Augusta, Ga., a few days ago. "Fifteen years ago," continued Mrs. Jennings, "my health began to fail and I began to take medicine, and the more I took the faster I seemed to go down hill. My troubles multiplied until they were many, and my ( condition becamo complicated and very serious and no one seemed to j understand it. My stomach was in such bad shape I could not digest anything, and what I would eat seemed to poison my system. "My blood was thin and my arms were covered with spots. My back about my kidneys ached and hurt me dreadfully, and I was told I had spinal affection. The rheumatic pains all over my body were so awful they were hard to bear, and my head ached me constantly. I lost flesh and strength until I got so weak I could not walk to my garden without help and I kept going until I was simply a physicial and nervous wreck, and I believe that I was all but dead. My condition was too awful to even describe and I cannot tell you half of my suffering. "When a day would close on my miserable existence I could think of nothing but another day of suffering tomorrow, and I was so nervous and racked with pain I could not sleep. I wanted to live, and my husband spent thousands of dollars trying to get me well, but nothing did me any good. The doctors said there was no medicine that would help me. Finally 1 became so weak and out of heart that I prayed to die. 'When I read about the wonderful help other people were getting from Tanlac I bought a bottle and began taking it, and honestly I would not take ten thousand dollars for the difference in the way I feel now and the way I felt the day I bought my first bottle of Tanlac. "I can eat now and enjoy my meals and when night comes I can lie down and sleep like a child. I do not have any more trouble with my kidneys and the hurting I used to have in my back has left me and all the rheumatic pains have gone. My blood has thickened up and seems to be in good condition and those ugly spots have left my arms and my head does not ache me any more. I do not know what all was the matter with me, but I have been relieved of all my suffering and, as I have already said, I gained twenty pounds in weight besides.

FROM AN APPRECIATIVE PUPIL Editor Chesterfield Advertiser: , Will you allow me spuce in your valuable paper to express my deepest appreciation to Miss Mims and the others who assisted her in the tomato club work? I am one of her club girls and I feel that I should thank her publicly for her great service to us. First, I feel that 1 have been greatly benefitted by the tomato club work and have gained much in knowledge through her instruction. It has been quite a pleasure to me this year to work in my tomato farm. i want to urge every girl in the county to join us next year?we will be glad to have every one. -Hflp un A to make our exhibit at the county ' fair next year even better, if pos- * sible. I think that one of the greatest things that Chesterfield county ever did for herself was to get Miss Mims to come here and help the girls of the county prepare their fruits and tomatoes for canning. ^ I had never seen any canning done where a canner was used until the three-day course at Chesterfield this year. I shall never forget the day we first met in our work. I do think that Miss Mims should be praised for the work she has done since she came to Chesterfield. There is much more that I could say but it would make my letter too long. May God's greatest blessings be with Miss Mims wherever she may go. We will certainly be glad when the time comes for her to help us -again with our canning. Aline Moore, A Tomato Club Girl.
