Confirmed Proof.
Residents of Edgefield Cannot
Doubt What Has Been
Twice Proved.

In gratitude for complete relief
from aches and pains OF. bad bach-
from distressing kidney ills-Saou-
sands have, publicly recommended
Doan's kidney pills. Residents of
this vicinity who SO testified years
ago, now say their cures were per-
manent. This testimony doubly
proves the worth of Doan's kidney
pills to Edgefield sufferers.
RI Newsom, 2l9 Washington
street, Augusta, Ca, says: I take
pleasure in confirming everything |
said in regard to Doan's kidney
pills in my former public statement,
given in 1908. l have not had occa-
sion to use this remedy but once
since then. About a month ago |
felt a lameness in my back caused
by overlifting and l again began
using Doan's kidney pills. They re-
moved the trouble at once and ]
have not had a return attack. l can
not say too much in praise of Doan's
kidney pills"

Has Purchased Steam Engine.

The large flour mill of Hon. w.
R. Parks near Parksville contains
several hundred bushels of wheat,
each lot awaiting It's turn to lie Con-
verted into -four. Owing to low
water, the mill has not been in op-
Grafton for some time, causing Mr..
Parks to lose heavily. However,
the loss to Mr.. Parks and the
trouble and inconvenience that his
patrons have experienced will soon
end. He has purchased a large
steam engine that will be used as
supplementary power. AS soon as
the engine can be installed the mill
will be run to its fullest capacity.
The Parks mill has become Gel
ebrated for the superior quality of
flower that it makess hence many
are loath to send their wheat else
where, preferring to wait till the
mill resumes operation. Mr.. Parks
will give notice through The Ad-
vertiser when his mill will be ready.

Has Surrendered to the Sheriff.

MI. Joseph L. Grafton who shot
Mr.. P. o. Thurmond Saturday
night, August 18th, came up
Saturday last, accompanied by his
brother-in-law MI. Philip Markert,
and voluntarily surrendered to
Sheriff QUITS. He has engaged
counsel and will doubtless apply
for bail.
The differences between the two
men have existed for two years,
family troubles being the cause of
the tragedy. The two men met in
the public road some distance above
SCOTS store. Mr.. p. O. Thur
mond was in his buggy and coming
behind in another buggy were Mrs.
J. L. Grafton and her little girl.
Mr.. Grafton shot Nj. Thurmond in
the thigh. The. wounded man was
carried to the hospital in Augusta
Saturday night, where an operation
was performed Monday. His heart
is said to have been weak, death re-
sulting Monday night. Mr.. Thur
mond left no family his wife bav-
ing died about two years ago.

Had to Kill Four Chickens.

The writer met that genial, %jovial,
jo%cular, prince-of-good-fellows, Geo.
A. Adams, at Clark's Hill barbecue
Friday, and during the conversation
he asked if we were going to the
Woman's meeting at Rehoboth this
week. Upon receiving an affirmative
reply, he stated that he was going
also to carry his two daughters,
stating further that he expected to
stop with Cook Burckhalter. We
told him that we had first claim
upon Cooks hospitality, having
promised him some time ago that
we would spend a night with him.
After discoursing at some length up
on the lavish Burckhalter hospitality
of which every one who has spent
a night with Cook has abundant
knowledge, he said: Il got ahead
Of you anyway. / stopped with Cook
when I went to Rehoboth to the
union meeting and l never saw so
many good things to eat in my life
before. Why, they killed four chick
ems for supper and four more for
breakfast" We then got in a word
edgewise and silenced him by say
ing the hostess would not find it
necessary to kill as many as four
chickens for us. Our good friend
soon changed the subject of CONVEX
%sation.

A Last Word.
To the Democratic Voters of the
End Congressional District:

10 Glle llOCIdo OUSho 1HS
End Congressional District:
AS your Representative in Con-
gress, the Hon. James O. Patterson
was, through a malarial illness con-
tracted while aiding the distressed
people of his District in the section
almost ruined by the overflow of
the Savannah river, rendered phys
ically unable to address his cons tt
tuents at the campaign meetings
held in his District, / think itdue
both to You and this faithful public
servant to say that if he had been
able to address the people at these
campaign meetings, they would
have had convincing proof of his
great ability as a worker in the
ranks of the Democratic minority,
of his thorough equipment for the
intelligent and effective discharge
of the duties you have committed
to him.
In that greatest of all political
schools, the Congress Of the United
States, there has been no more pro-
gressive student of public affairs.
than James o. Patterson. His as
ISOLATION with the leading public
men of the Congress has broadened
his powers, strengthened his good
Judgment, and made him tie equal
in effectiveness of any, and superior
in every particular of many of the
favorite sons of other and larger
States. Our state has never had a
worthier representative in Congress
than he is, and as he will continue
to be as long as honored by the bal
lots of his District fellow citizens.
1 say this because l know it to be
so because the records of Congress
prove it. As a reader and student
| of the Congressional Record, the Of
fetal journal of Congressional pro-
ceedings, / bear my testimony to
his worth and work.
