The Advice of This Newberry Woman
is of Certlin Value.


Many a woman's back has many aches
and pains.
Ofttimes It's the kidneys fault.
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills are
so effective.
Many Newberry women know this.
Read what one has to say about it:
Mrs. B. F. Cannon, 1902 Harper St.,
NeWberry, says: ''I suffered terribly
from kidney ailments. had such ter
rible pains in the small of my back
that l couldn't turn over in bed and
many nights I didn't get any rest at
all. l was nervous and out of sorts
3Ihe kidney secretions were unnatural
and caused me lot of annoyance. I
anally got Doan's Kidney Pills from
Glider & Weeks drug store and began
.aking them. They helped me right
away and one box fixed me up in good
shape
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Cannon had. -Milburn Co.,

ENTENTE'S FORCES
NEARING StL0NIhI
BulgarS Said 10 Have Crossed Greek
Frontier in Pursuit-Balkan Sit
uatiOn Further Complicated.

London, Dec 1.-THE next big ba.-
tie of tie war probably Will be fought
in Greece, despite the efforts OF the
Hellenic king and government to save
their country from the horrors Of war.
The British and French forces have
made good their retirement down the
Vardar valley and the approaching Sa
loniki, where reinforcements are be-
ing landed, while reporjs received in
Paris and Rome say that the Bulga-
rians have crossed the Greek frontier
in pursuit. Reports Of this action by
the Bulgarians come somewhat as a
surprise, as it had been thought that
such a move by them would provoke
the Greeks and that consequently if
the entente allies are followed at ali
the task would be allotted to the Aus
trians and Germans.
Greece's situation automatically has
been complicated by the request OF
Germany to know whether the Athens
cabinet does not look upon the use OF
Greek territory by the entente allies
as a breach of her neutrality and this
inquiry is considered to foreshadoW
German participation in the pursuit.
However, it is not believed here that
the Germans have many troops in that
part of the Balkans, their main forces
having been diverted to the Distichuk
when Russia threatened an invasion
of Bulgaria.
1t has been again reported that the
Italians have landed an army on the
Albanian coast to assist the Servians
and Montenegrins
There has been more fighting on the
Gallipoli peninsula. The Turks mere
claim to have repulsed an attack
against their left wing at Seddul Bahr
The Turkish official accounts say moth
ing new has occurred al Kut-el-Amara,
where the Turks are operating against
the British who retired from the Bag
dad region This is taken in military
circles here as an admission by the
Turks that their attacks have failed.
Private information here says pre-
v4ous reports of the losses the Turks
infictedoen the British during the
British retirement down the TigrisI
river have been exaggerated. The
three vessels which they captured turn
out to have been tugboat and two
barges
The Italians are still hammering
away at the Austrian positions around
Gorilla. The town of Gorilla itself
has again been bombarded.
The appointment of Gen. Sir Horace
smith-Dorrien to the supreme com
mand of the forces operating in East
Africa means that the British are TAX
ing steps in an endeavor to clear the
Germans out of the only colony that
remains to them, except small part
of the Kameruns. The Germans are i'll
strong force in East Africa, but Gen.
smitn-Dorrien, with the army that is
being raised in South Africa, the troops
who are already there and those who
are going from nome, hopes to COM
plete his new job in short order. The
commander, like the men under him,
is experienced in African warfare.
