BUFFALO

Buffalo, June 6.-Mr Editor: AS
the political pot is warming up and
will soon begin to boil, we notice
good and honorable men are announc-
ing themselves for various county of
fees. There is one who deserves
special mention and should receive the
aiority of the votes of Union county
and especially should he receive the
solid support of the voters of Buff alo
as it was here that he spent the best
efforts of his life, and within sight of
the place where he first saw the light
of day; has lived here all his life,
and no county, State or nation can
become higher than the ideals of her
citizens. the people who make and
call it their home. Home is the great
est institution in the world 1t is
here that inspiration, ambition, lofty
ideals are created and generated, and
1T is likewise here that these qualities
are foStered and nurtured until they
become vital forces, capable of influ-
encing the life Of the community, the
county. the State and nation. And
not only fortunate, but blessed is the
county that can raise up a son or
daughter who can take their places in
the world and with honor and ability
become part of it, directing in
flEence IN the life of State or ma
ton. What man or woman does not
thrill with pride in the thought that a
son Of our soil. a native of our coun-
ty, a product of our own home is pos
Sessed Of the requisite ability, intel
lect and wisdom to occupy one of the
highest positions in the nations life.
Doubtless no county in the State feels
greater pride than Union in her con-
tributIons to the life of the great
State in which we live Her history
Is entwined and intermingled with the
progress Of South Carolina. She has
4 record that is stainless, a career
that is honorable. Her officers have
ever been men of integrity and no
scandal has ever permeated her politi-
cal or official life. 1t is a monument
Of honor and glory to the citizenship
of Union county, and no man has con-
tributed more for her advancement
and upbuiiding than r. c. Duncan
Of Union, and which he is deserving
of some recognition, so let's show our
appreciation and gratitude by electing
him to the legislature by handsome
majority, and his brilliant oratory will
constantly be reverberated through
the Legislative halls of our State in
thunderous appeals for the rights OF
his people.

Them.
Many bad cases of kidney trouble
result from a cold or chill. Congest-
ed kidneys fall behind in filtering the
poison-laden blood and backache,
headache, dizziness and disordered
kidney action follow. Don't neglect a
cold. Use Doan's Kidney Pills at the
first sign of kidney trouble. Follow
this Union residents example:
X. f. Henderson, l Louise ST., Un-
ion, says: 81 caught cold on my kid
neys and it brought on backache.
Often, when I stopped over, pain
caught me in the small of my back
and had to brace myself in order
to straighten up. My kidneys acted
too freely and the secretions burned
like red-hot Goals. There was also
a great deal of sediment deposited
in the secretions. The first few doses
OF Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me
and one box cured me. The cure has
been permanent"

! However, pure face powder may
be gotten for twenty-five cents a box,
if one is sure Of the shop where it is
purchased. II is never perfumed at
this price, but the buyer can per-
fume it to suit herself. A year ago,
wanted to adopt a certain very
delicate perfume, but did not want
to pay the high prices the various
articles scented thus commanded.
So 1 paid 80 for an ounce Of the Won
derful extract, and then bought a
double-sized box Of unscented rice
powder for half dollar, and the in
gradients from which I make nv
own cold cream.
I added half a dozen drops Of the
expensive extract to the powder,
stirring it about till the whole box
full was scented, and added a few
more drops to my cream when I had
it made. A couple of drops went
into the talcum powder shaker, to
scent this for me-and the rest [
added to a bottle Of slightly per-
fumed toilet water-which 1 also
make at home.
So, had my own set Of toilet
goods, deliciously scented, and very
inexpensive. In fact, I had paid no
more for them, by making the water
and cream, and buying unscented
powder, than if I had gone to the
shops, and compromised on cheaper
goods that did not want.
