Nothing uncertain about the work
Of Doan's Kidney Pills in cases Of kid

the following statement:
Mrs. l.. II. Stevens, Manchester De

did me world Of good when ] had
kidney trouble. All kidney sufferers
will do well to give this remedy fair
trial. In my case Doan's Kidney Pills
have always lived up TO the claims
made for them and also know Of
many other people who have had ben

THE SPLIT LOG DRAG

more toward economic maintenance
Of public highways than any imple-

require special acts Of the legislature,
bond issues nor expensive educational

drag can be built or purchased for 800

can drive a team. We need more

able results seem about to be achieved
by A. w. Brabham Of Olar, S. c., who
has succeeded in producing cotton
which ranges in color from snow
white to a deep olive green. The
planter asserts positively that black
cotton, sought for ages by spinners
and manufacturers, is about to be-
come a reality.
That the statements of Brabham
are no idle dream is borne out in con-
crete fashion by the receipt in Savan-
nah of samples Of his colored cottons.
The exhibit has been framed and lung
on the walls of the Cotton Exchange.
The seeds used by Brabham in his ex-
periments were those Of Egyptian sta
pie. He has practiced seed selection
extensively, and in four years has Sc
cured in regular order from the Egyp-
tian seed a tan, yellow green, light
