fifth Of which is payable upon the
completion of the preliminary studies
and plans, the remaining four-fifths

asking for Todd & Benson represents
one-fifth of the amount they may say
is due them for plans for eniarging
the State house by adding an eastern

We are so positive that we can re
lieve constipation, no matter now
chronic ii may be, that we offer to fun
nish the medicine free OF all cost if
we fail.
We think that it is worse than lsc-
less to attempt to cure cOnstipati3n
with cathartic drugs. Cathartics may
do much harm. They may cause a
reaction, irritate and weaken the BOW
els, and make constipation more
chronic
Constipation is often accompanied
and may be caused by weakness of
the nerves and muscles of the large
intestine or colon. TO expect cure
you must therefore tone up and
strengthen those parts and restore
them to healthier activity.
The discovery of the active princi-
pie of our remedy involved the labor
of skilful research chemists. This
remedy produces results such as are
eXpeo ed from the best of the best
known intestinal tonics, and ii is par
ticularly prompt in its results.
We want you TO try RcXall Ordcrlics
on our guarantee. They are exceed
ingly pleasant to take and are ideal
for children. They apparently act di-
rectly on tn nerves and muscles of
the bowels, having, it would seem, a
neutral action on other organs or
glands. They do not purge or cause
Inconvenience. If they do not posi-
lively cure chronic or habitual const-
patton and thus relieve the myriads

Columbia, 8. c., Feb 5--A subcom-
mittee, composed of w. w. Dixon of
Fairfield, F. Nj. Bryan of Charleston
and c. ID. Lee of Darlington from the
State house and grounds, has put in
claim for $13 $50 on behalf of Todd
Benson, architects of Charleston.

model of the state house as it would
appear were the plans of the ar
chitects to be adopted The model is
very pretty.
The subcommittee asks the State
to pay the architects $4,000 now
which is about one-flfth of the total
cost Of the plans they have drawn
for remodeling the State house, add
ing an eastern and western wing
and a new dome. The remaining $3.50
of the $13,550. is for the travelling ex-
penses Of A. w. Todd, senior mem
Der of the firm of Todd & Benson,
who is in his third term as n mem
ber of the house.
The minutes Of the meeting of the
subcommittee on September 27, 1911,
at which the members Of the com
mittee, Gov. Blease and A. w. Todd
were present. say In regard to this
travelling expense item:
MIR. Dixon then moved that Mr..
Todd visit as many of the members
as possible, and use any means in
his power to acquaint them of the
contemplated work, at cost not to
exceed $1,000" The minutes are sign
ed by w. w. Dixon.

Remember This,

When you go to call on the sick al
ways remember that the conversation
should deal with cheerful topics and
never with anything dull or gloomy.
Many an invalid has been plunged into
a state of nervous melancholy through
the untimely remarks of some igno-
rant or thoughtless visitor. eyes,"
sadly related a visitor to n very sick
woman, MRS. Jones died yesterday.
She suffered from the same malady
as you have, and she was sick for such
a long time" After which she in
sisted that she must depart, urging
the invalid to be of good cheer. It
was with great difficulty that the sick
woman was pacified by the nurse, for
she imagined that she would be the
next to follow Mrs. Jones into the
grave.

FINAL RESULT Of
IMPURE BLOOD
The System Is Left Weak, Ron
Down and Helpless Against
the Attacks of Disease.

If you need strength, if your blood is
pay you to investigate the merits of DR..
Williams Pink Pills, the remedy that
has transformed so many weak, anamic,
dyspeptic, ambitionless people into
strong, healthy, hungry men and
women.
Mrs. Lena May Roberts, whose ad-
dress is R. F. D. No. 8, Aberdeen, So.
Dakota after several months of suffering
finally found the right tonic in DR..
Williams Pink Pills. She says:
"For months after the birth of my
baby, I suffered terribly from a general
breakdown in health. Twas in bed for
three months and after that was able to
be up only part Of the time. I was
sick all over, being pale, weak and
thin. My appetite was gone and my
head ached most of the time. Often
times there seemed to be a rush of blood
to my head and I would faint away. I
was very nervous and was not strong
enough to do any work.
"As the treatment I was taking did
not help me, I began to take DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills, which a friend said
had helped her. After taking a few
boxes, I began to get well rapidly. I
continued using them for a time and
am now as well and strong as ever in
my life."
The value of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
in general debility lies in their direct re-
Spouse to the needs of the blood. Their
work is to make new blood. That they
do this well is shown by the gradual
disappearance of the symptoms and
the return of color and health. They
lay the foundation for permanent health
in the future.
For the same reason these pills have
cured anamia, after-effects of the grip
and fevers, rheumatism, indigestion,
and nervousness, dizziness, neuralgia
and St. Vitus' dance, and are recon-
mended wherever a tonic for the blood
and nerves is needed.
A valuable booklet, Diseases of the
Blood" containing fuller information
about rheumatism and other diseases oi
the blood will be sent free upon request.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on re-
ceipt of price, SO cents per box; siz
