MAY PROVE FATAL
When Will Webster People
Learn The Importance Of 1t!

Backaehe is only a simple thing at
first;
But when you know It's from the
kidneys;
That serious kidney troubles follow;
That diabetes, Bright's disease may
be the fatal end,
You will gladly profit by the following
experience.
IT'S the statement of Webster citi-
zen.
John Sjoberg, of Webster, So. OAK,
says: -Four years ago ! had severe
attack of kidney complaint and suffered
intensely from pains in my kidneys and
loins. The kidney secretions became
scant and painful in passage and ! was
alarmed, for my condition grew so bad
that had to give up work. After try
ing many remedies without getting
relief, Doan's Kidney Pills were highly
recommended to me and | procured a
supply from the Irwin pharmacy.
Their use brought the best of results.
The kidney disorders were corrected
and after | had used three boxes of
this remedy, was completely cured.
What is more gratifying, / have never
had the slightest recurrence of kidney
complaint"

Loss by Storm.
CITIZENS REPAIRING HAVOC
Much of the Debris Has Been Re.
moved, but Danger of Pesti-
Ience Has Not Passed.

Charleston, 8. c., Sept. DRY out.
clean up, disinfect and repair" is the
watchword in storm stricken Charles
ton. Mayor Rhett, having hurried
from New York on hearing of the hur-
ricane. has taken the helm and is d.
recting the work of rehabilitation. The
death list has reached seventeen and
the property damage Is conservatively
estimated at $1,000,000.
Reports are getting in from the ex-
posed sea islands, where only two
lives were lost on James island, but
the property damage is very heavy
II is said by planters that long staple
cotton and rice have been almost
wiped out. Houses have been wrecked
and cattle and live stock killed. Road
ways are impossible, as the bridges
have gone and trees have been felled.
First reports Of damage at the Isle
Of Palms, a resort directly on the
ocean nine miles from here, were ex-
aggerated. Buildings were not as Sc
riously damaged as believed. In
Charleston things are approaching the
normal with splendid progress. The
railroads. though their yards are Grip
piled, are giving much better train
service for passengers and freight.
The trolley cars are running on all
the city lines and the cars on the sea-
shore division will be in operation
regularly shortly. The telephone COM
pany reports most of it's system in
working order. Electric light and
power service is being rapidlysextend-
ed over the city.
Much of the storm debris has been
removed and all the streets are clear.
The board of health is imploring
householders to get their premises
sanitary without delay, citing the dan
ger of sickness from continuance OF
present conditions. The damage about
Beaufort and Port Royal is placed at
S1,000,000. There was no loss of hui
man life In that section.

II. r. DENTON, Editor.
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7. 1911.

The Reporter and Farmer last week
contained well written appeal to the
commissioners to stand by the news
papers of the county during these close
times, and mentioned that last month s
proceedings showed that several hun
dred dollars were spent outside of the
county for job printing, and pointed
out that any one of the news papers of
the county could have turned out the
same work at the same price. No
doubt the Reporter scribe was actuated
by the very best of motives, and the
little fellows outside Of the county seat
Of course, appreciate any favorable
mention; the theory is all right but it
won't work out. Some ten years ago
by the grace of God and VIM. Egeland
this shop turned out a job for the
auditors Office and received therefore
So from the general fund-not other
wise appropriated. That same So con-
stitutes the sum total received at this
station for Day county job printing in
twelve years. The theory is right.
Day county printing should be left with
the printers of the county, but as one
Of the little fellows outside of the
county seat we do object to being used
as an argument, without our consent,
for leaving it with the printers of
Webster or any other seaport where
the coast trains refuse to stop. Pier
pont Signal.
Ii 1t were not for his
blindness the editor of the Signal could
see where it would be benefit to him
to have the money left in Day county
even though he did not get it--that is
our position in the matter and we
believe the majority of people will
coincide with us that all money should
be spent at home. Why not send to
Sears, Roebuck & Co. for the supplies
for the county poor farm?

In Memory

OF my cousin Rachael Gochenour,
who died Aug. 30, 1911.
IT'S hard to break the tender cord,
When love has bound the heart.
Ills hard SO hard to speak the words
Must we forever part.
She is waiting by the river,
just a cross the silver stream,
Where sweet flowers are ever blooming
And the banks are always green.
Where no cold chill blast of winter,
To tiwn the rose blossoms fair,
But where ali is love and sunshine,
She is waiting for US there.
In the graveyard softly sleeping,
Where flowers gently wave
Lies the one I love so dear
In her lonely silent grave.
Sleep dear Rachael sleep and take
your rest,
God took you home, He thought it
best,
Tt was hard indeed to part with thee.
Farewell dear Rachael, sad fare
we'll
For our dear Rachael has forever
passed away.
