ADVERTISING.

10 consummate a sale, a person
must have something to dispose OF
mat some one else wants. There are
great many people who have things
70 dispose Of, and there are great
many people who want these very
lnlhgS. but do not know where they
are for sale.
Inc object of advertising is for the
purpose OF notifying those who may
" prospective purchasers that the
aflicle which they desire can be had.
Advertising is not alone for the
merchant, but it is for the land own
glS and for everybody else, and for
people who hold land and personal
property OF value which they would
like to sell.
II people of this community who
na'e things to sell, would make it a
m ~ to advertise, they would find
NAT there are many times the de-
s sudhd for things than there are things
for sale.
we would suggest that those who
ae thlngs to sell, and those who
%ant 10 buy things, consider serious
~ the advisability of advertising.
ne advertisement need not cost a
sleat deal, and yet be Of such char
"oVer as to produce results.

Pains and Aches
Caused by Kidneys

Many women attribute ailments
and suffering to some disease pecu-
liar to their sex, when often the
pain and misery is caused by weak
or deranged kidneys. Homework,
office work or factory work may
start the trouble, and dizzy spells,
pulL1ness under eyes sore muscles
tleep disturbing bladder ailments,
rheumatism or diabetes may result.
When the kidneys are strong. and
healthy they filter out from the blood
the poisonous waste matter: When
they are sluggish or overworked they
need a medicine to clean them out
and invigorate action. Foley Kidney
Pills are prepared expressly for the
purpose Of dissolving all poisonous
substances and uric acid that lodge
in the joints and muscles ana 20
inactive kidneys. Thousands of men
and women in all parts Of the county
testify to the wonderfully satisfac-
tory results they have had from TAX
ing Foley Kidney Pills.

partment Of Justice. was one of the
few men In the town who was awake
except those who had been guests Of
the banker and who had fingered to an
hour which was almost unprecedented
Ia New Beaufort. They would have
gone home ut eleven but the banker
insisted that they remain for further
entertainment on the part Of his New
York musicians. One song called forth
another and the quality OF the music
proved so much more pleasing than
that Of their customary local talent
that they forgot the passing Of time.
The special agent sat on 4 hill near
the Compton home and smoked a pipe.
II was twelve o'clock before the
party finally broke up. Those of the
townspeople who had come In their au.
tomobilas were being tucked into the
tonneaus. and those who mad walked
up the gray macadam drive were Just
setting out on foot when the clatter as
OF bunch OF giant fire crackers called
their attention to the village below.
From the bank building was seen sud.
denly to burst cloud Of smoke while,
q moment later, a skylignt was broken
and a tongue of fame leaped forth.
Fire! Fire!" came the shout from
dozen voices. .....
Gard had seen more than had the
guests OF the banker. As he smoked
his pipe and watched the village be-
low. the lights In the windows OF Stone
Crest, and the silent cottage OF Lor-
ance. the assistant cashier, he had
seen an automobile. with no lamp
showing, creep through the quiet back
street, purr stealthily into the alley
back OF the bank and stop behind a
small building that shut of his view.
Half an hour passed and the darkened
machine reappeared from behind the
intervening building. turned into the
thoroughfare leading to the southeast
and disappeared in the distance at an
ever increasing rate of speed.
When the exploding cartridges in
the cashiers drawer at the bank gave
the first warning Of the fire, the clamor
OF the alarm followed and pande-
monium broke out in the village. or
the dispensing group on the hill, every
one ran for q nearer view Of the fire.
The musicians, the servants, the mas
ter OF the house himself. all hurried
into the village to make part of the ex.
element that prevailed. Stone Crest,
the lights OF its entertainment still
glowing, was left deserted.
Gard. the special agent. again acted
differently from his fellows by failing
to do the thing which others did. He
crossed over from the. hill on which
