IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake The Cause of Your IrOu'
blrS.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it is only muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kid
ney disorders. That is just where
the danger lies. You must cure
these troubles or they may lead to
diabetes or Bright's disease. The
best remedy to use is Doan's Kidney
Pills. 1t is for ills which are caused
by weak or diseased kidneys. Resi-
dents of this vicinity are constantly
testifying to benefit received.
CA Ardis, "a N Liberty St, Sum-
ter, S C, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills

LEVERS MODEST CONSTITUENT,
The Funniest Story I'm a Hundred

A letter which would undoubtedly
be considered a hoax perpetrated by
some professional wag, if the docu'
ment itself did not bear unmistakable
evidence of its seriousness, was re-
Gently received by Representative A
F Lever, of the 7th South Carolina
district. This missive has caused
great deal of hilarity among those
who have seen it in its original in
nocence.
During the debate on the farmers
free list bill, recently passed by the
House of Representatives, Mr. Lever
delivered speech, of which he was
justly proud. He mailed number
of copies of the speech to his con-
stituents in South Carolina. HIS ref
erence to the measure as putting
various agricultural necessities on
the free list" brought this remark
able requisition from his district:

on these bonds of about 81, 10000
They will be retired in about eight
years.
The present rate of insurance in
Kingstree is as follows:
For shingle roof, frame dwell
ing, 90c per 500; with metal roof
Csc per 500, For shingle roof,
frame mercantile building, S3.25 pei
500. For a metal roof, brick mer.

Under the existing law Kingstree
may issue bonds for an amount not
exceeding 50 of the total assessed
valuation of all taxable property
eS53l, $4,000 which is S42, ,54i.92.
The proposed bond issue is for an
amount not exceeding S42, 100000,
which, if disposed of for a so inter-
est profit to the purchaser, will re-
quire an additional tax of 3, mills to
pay the interest.
The statute under which these
bonds may be issued provides for a
sinking fund of LAO part of the to-
tai amount to be set apart annually
for the purpose of retiring the bonds,
which sinking frnd,it is believed, can
be raised out of the net proceeds of
the operation of the water works
and sewerage systems.
From the present condition of the
streets Of the town and the town
treasury it is reasonable to suppose
that within the next two or three
years the present s mills town tax
may be reduced very materially.
The installation of the proposed
water works system will have re-
duced the above rates of insurance

KEEPING UP OLD ROADS

New York Sun: In adopting az her
cross-state highway route of the pio-
neers, Missouri follows the lead Of
the modern pathfinders. The men who
first cut their way through forests and
wild land cared more for direct avail
able route than a scenic and pictur-
esque road, and those that came after
them have round have found the first
crude surveys the best.
Maryland in undertaking to develop
her old roads has found them full Of
historic interest and has made little
changes In the original lines. The
roads now under discussion from
Washington south are the routes
tramped by troops Of earlier wars into
the Virginias and Carolinas or fought
over by armies. There is the same
charm OF associations with national or
state history in the old national road
and in the turnpike leading from 1t in
Ohio and Indiana southwark to Ken
lucky and n the trails westward across
across the prairies from the Missouri
river.
The dedication OF the end Of the
santa Re trail has just been celebrated
on the plaza at Sante Fe This old
trade route has been carefully marked
across the Kansas plains and through
the passes Of the Rockies. 1t has been
found not only the most interesting
but the most available IL a way liz 10
be made across the continent from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, and so well has
ii satisfied the demands OF the mod
ern traveller that already much OF 1t
has been improved from grass grown
trail to an automobile road. The pio-
neer route from wyoming to Texas
has been transformed into 1000 miles
Of good highway over which motor
cars are travelling, while the paths Of
the frontiersman and the soldier In
Montana, wyoming, Colorado. New
Mexico. Arizona, California Oregon
and washington have been joined to
make loop automobile road OF 10000
miles. with only three bad stretches
throughout the entire circuit.
when three routes were proposed
for the Missouri road there was grave
thumbing OF histories throughout the
state. One route had nothing to meet
the historical claims Of the others but
the fact that at one point on the line
two generals once met and agreed 10
to separate their armies and avoid j.
battle. A Missouri committee natur-
ally brushed this aside In favor or the
Boone Lick road" There was a strong
appeal III the very name, Besides, ii
was the first regularly Travelled road III
