Much sickness is of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any of these organs are weak,
it is the fault of the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
a specific for the nerves. 1t
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation of nerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if you take DR.. Miles Neryine
when sick. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac-
cording to directions, and if it
does not benefit he will return
your money.

sale of the land, were paid by Mr.
Clemson out of his own private
funds.
Mr. and Mrs Clemson resided at
Fort Hill. After the death of their
two children, Mrs Lee and Calhoun
Clemson, they entered into an agree
ment to make wills in each others
favor, and the survivor was to de-
vote their joint property to the State
to found an industrial college, Mrs
Clemson having nothing to will but
her three-fourths of the Fort Hill
plantation, while Mr. Clemson had
quite a sum of money which ne had
fortunately saved after tina war.
1t was also a part OF this agree
ment that Mr. Clemson was to will
out of his private property the sum
of ten thousand dollars to their
granddaughter, the only surviving
child of their daughter, Mre Lee,
and their object in making this do
nation to their granddaughter was
that they could donate their property
to the State free of any claim or
equitable right that she, the grand
child, night have to the Fort Hill
plantation.
In the meantime the Fort Hill
plantation had been divided accord
ing to the terms of Mrs Calhoun 8
will, setting off three-fourths to Mrs
Clemson and one-fourth to Mrs Lee
or her daughter. They having
agreed to donate this three -fourths
to the State, they considered the
eight thousand dollars paid to his
granddaughter, which subsequently
he increased to fifteen thousand dol
lars; would be indisputably the value
of the land. Mr. Clemson always
considered that the Fort Hill plan.
tatlon, or three. fourths thereof, was
legally and rightfully his property
as far as any claims that the CAL
houns might set up, and therefore
was his to do as he pleased with, he
having paid $4,000 therefor.
These facts are all matters of rec
ord except as to the agreement to
compensate their granddaughter, and
let the Fort Hill plantation be freed
from any claim that might be set up
by the Calhouns or others that they,
Mr. and Mrs Clemson, were donating
that which they had no moral right
to donate. was a witness to these
facts and to the purpose they had in
view.
There is, therefore, no foundation
for the statement that Mr. Clemson
had settled Calhoun's 8 property to the
State, and then given his name to
the proposed institution. l wrote Mr.
Clemson's will, and | state positive.
ly that if any one is responsible for
his name given to the college am
that one. Mr. Clemson wanted to
give the name of Calhoun to the
proposed institution, but l insisted
that It should bear his name, be-
cause knew of the transactions by
which his granddaughter was to be
compensated for the full value of the
plantation, and that which he was
donating to the State was his indi-
vidual property, and Mr. Calhoun
had nothing whatever to do with
the property or the donation. But it
was Mr. Clemson's purpose and de.
sire to Lame the college Calhoun
and not Clemson.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
Lancaster People Should learn to De-
tect the Approach of Kidney
Disease.

The symptoms of kidney trouble
are SO unmis .akable that they leave
no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys
excrete a thick, cloudy, offensive
urine, fill of sediment, irregular of
passage or attended by a sensation of
scalding. The back aches constantly,
headaches and dizzy spells may occur
and the victim is often weighed
down by feeling of languor and
fatigue Neglect these warnings and
there is danger of dropsy. Bright's
Disease, or diabetes. Any one of
these symptoms is warning enough to
begin treating the kidneys at once.
Delay often proves fatal
You can use no better remedy than
Doan's Kidney Pills. Here's Lancas-
ter proof
Mrs. NJ. V. Burris, Fourth Ward,
Lancaster, Wis. says: Il am re-
commencing Doan S Kidney Pills in
the hope that few of the many who
are suffering from kidney trouble may
learn of them and be benefited. My
husband suffered for months from
severe pains in the small of his back
and weakness of his kidneys. He
went to Hatch's drug store and got
Doan's Kidney Pills. They gave
him relief in short time and | have
not heard him complain since. -
