EVER HAVE 1T?
.If You Have the Statement
OF This Man Will Inter
est You.

Ever have "low-down" pain in the
ss back? aas SO
In the "small," right over the hips2
That's the home of backache,
It's caused by sick kidneys.
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills cure it,.
Laurens people endorse it. Read q
case OF it:
w. M. Starmes, employed in the
mill, living on Factory Hill, says:
''Doan's Kidney Pills are a great medl-
cine and did me more good than any
thing else ever used. My back was
atling for good long spell, and some
times 1T was SO bad that was entirely
laid up. L could scarcely get my clothes
on, my back was so weak and the kid
ney secretions were all out of shape,
lookei like blood and on standing
looked just like liver. The too fre-
,quent action was greatly annoying es-
pecially at night when my rest was
greatly disturbed. Among all the
things L tried nothing did me any good.
| SAW the advertisement about Doan's
kidney Pills and went to the Palmetto
Drug Co.'s store aud gotta box. They
are the best medicine ever used and
did me good the first night used them.
Since taking the pills my backache left
me, the kidney secretions are ali right
and do not disturb me at all. They are
a good remedy and L will give them a
good word to anyone who asks me-"

GORDON JOINS
LONGSTREET.
Another Great SOutherner
Crosses the River.
DIES I'm FLORIDA.
Great i'm Intellect AS I'm
Courage.
DIES I'm FLORIDA. !.
The Commander of the United Confed.
crate Veterans Psses Away at the
Age of Seventy One.

General John b. Gordon, of G sorgia,
died Saturday night in Miami, Florida.
Not only was G ,neral Gordona great
soldier, but he was a great orator. He
was man OF splendid mind. His iu-
tellectual abilities were never fully ap-
preciated'
He was man of princsly figure. No
finer picture is conceivable of human
splendor than Gordon at the head OF
Of the Confederate veterans in one OF
their reunion parades.
General Gordon lectured in Laurens
on the "Last Days Of the Confederacy"
In October. This was probably one Of
his last appearances in public.
General Gordon's fatal illness, which
overlook him last Wednesday, was con-
gesLion of the stomach and liver, fol-
lowing an aonte attack of indigestion,
to which he was subject.
General Gordon was born in Upson
County, Ca, July 8, 1882, of Scotch an
cestry, which had a prominent part in
the Revolutionary War.
Young Gordon graduated from the
Georgia State University in 1862. and a
few months later was admitted to the
practice of law. EARLY In 1861 he en-
listed In the volunteer Confederate SER
vice and was elected Captain Of his
company. He rose rapidly by promo
tion to lieutenant colonel Of the Sixth
Alabama Infsntry in December, 1851.
He participated In the struggle on the
Peninsula, aud, took part in the battle
at Malvern Hill, and was commissioned
brigadier general November, 1852. He
was in command at Charlottesville
and in the Pennsylvania campaign. In
an official report to General d. H. Hill,
General Gordon was characterized as
"The Chevalier Bayard of the Confed-
eracy." #s
When hostilities ended, he called his
men about him and advised them to
bear the trial of defeat, to go home in
peace, obey the laws and rebuild the
wasted country. He has taken promi-
nent part in the councils of his party
since 1866. He was defeated candi-
date for Governor Of Georgia In 1858,
and in 1878 and 1879 was elected to the
United States Senate. Resigning that
position in 1880, he participated ac-
lively In building the Georgia Pacific
Railroad. In 1886 and 1888 he was
elected Governor Of Georgia and In
1890 entered again into the United
Senate for the full term. Since his re-
tirement from political activity he has
devoted much of his time in lecturing
presenting the North as well as the
South in his lecture upon "The Last
Days of the Confederacy."

NOTICE
To The Farmers of Lau-
rens and Adjoining
Counties.

Our experience for 80 years in the
Stock business in this State has proven
that the time business Is not the best
system for either buyer or seller. The
losses sustained by the seller on poor
paymasters and dishonest men causes
the honest customer to have to pay too
much for his stock. The worry, ankle
ty and expense of collection, the hard
ships endured and in-will incurred
Oft times in making settlements, alto
gether make this system both objec-
tionable and undesirable to the seller,
therefore, we have decided to change
the basis of our business to cash
system. Accordingly, we solicit the
patronage OF all who have the money
