BACK ACHES.
A Woman Finds All Her En-.
ergy and Ambition Slipping
Away.

Lexington women know how the
aches aud pains that come wher the
kidneys fail make life burden. Back
ache, hip pains, headach g, dizzy
spells, distressing urinary troubles, all
tell of sick kidneys and warn You Of
the stealthy approach of diabetes,
dropsy and Bright's disease. Doan's
Kidney Pills permanently cure all
these disorders.
Can Lexington sufferers desire stron-
ger proof than this woman's words?
Mrs. Lucy Whites. 1927 Pulaski
Street, Columbia, S. c., says: ''For
several years, during the winter
months, I was bothered by pains in
my back and shoulders. My head
some times ached severely and was
hardly able to attend to my house
work About three months ago was
advised TO try Doan's Kidney Pills and
I procured box. They helped me so
promptly that I obtained a further
supply and after using that, was free
from pain. l think there is no other
remedy equal to Doap's Kidney Pills"

To Vote on Bond Issue For
Public Buildings.

Wednesday, April 12, has been
named by the town council as the day
on which the people of st. Matthews
will decide by ballot as to whether or
not the town will issue $40, 900 in bonds
for the purpose of aiding the county
of Calhoun in the construction Of pub
lie buildings, including court house
and jail. This is a matter that has
been waited for by the people with
considerable interest. The pledge of
the town will, in all probability, be
faithfully kept and the election would
have been held at an earlier date but
for the fact that. the constitution had
to be amended before the election
could be legally held.-Orangeburg
Times and Democrat.

A man hardly ever has to give up
money in order to square himself with

he soon gets the idea that he could do

Some men do lot of unnecessary
