WOMEN'S WOES.
Abbeville Women are Finding
Relief at Last.

It does seem that women have more
than. a fair share Of the aches and
pains that af1ict humanity: they must
''keep up" must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must stoop over, when to
stoop means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many sches from kidney ills.
Kidneys cause more suffering than
any other organ of the body. Keep
the kidneys we'll and health ia easily
maintained. Read of q remedy for
kidneys only that helps and cures the
kidneys and is endorsed by people in
this locality.
Mrs. v. Griffin, 225 swygart st.,
Greenwood, g: c., says: II had symp'
toms of kidney trouble for years. The
complaint would generally start with
a dull pain in the small Of my back,
soon followed by a languid feeling and
I was tired and worn out nearly all
the time. I was told that Doan's Kid
ney Pills were a good remedy for such
troubles and I procured a box. 1 am
now a great deal better and have no
hesitation in saying that 7 consider
Doan's Kidney Pills to be an excellent
remedy for kidney complaint"

econ Wednesday evening, December 30th, at
Upper Long Cane Church. The church was
beautifully and artistically decorated with
fens, palms, and other potted plants togeth-
e.with Ivy and holly. An arch was used COW
eed with ivy from which was suspended q
white bell draped In samilax. The lanpe
we're draped in red and white crepe paper
which caused a soft dim light to fall on the

Prohibition.

There seems to be q wave OF prohibit1on
rolling over the country. The reports from
the different dry" places differ, as we think,
according to the view point from which the
writers see things.
Speaking for this editor We are ready TO be-
lieve almost any story as to the immediate
effect OF prohibition. We once had prohlbi
tion In Abbeville. During the ] first few
months when the law was enforced the Town
was as "dry' as the proverbial powder house.
The next few months the town became as
wet as liquor could make 1t.
The drunkenness and the disorder became
30 notorious that good old church elders pre-
scented petitions for signature asking the
Legislature to re-instate the license.
Abbeville has had all sorts OF control Of IL
quor, namely:
/. Low license.
Q. High license.
8. Prohibition.
4. Dispensary.
Our testimony would be: II prohibition
was enforced that law IL best, but II allowed
to 60 It's wi way, 1t is worst.
High license 10 the worst possible form OF
controlling the liquor traffic. 1t gives men q
chance, whether exercised or not, TO doctor
the liquor and to extort in price.
Low license allows competition and compe-
tition leads to honesty and fair prices.
Experience would teach US that the dlspen-
sary Is the best legal method OF dealing with
LIQUOR. And If temperance people would pro-
mote sobriety they ought TO demand that the
dispensary be opened for fewer hours In the
day.
The head of every family should try to
teach his children the danger incident to
tipping.
