WHATS The REASON?
Many KlnqSree People In Poor Health
Without Knowing the Cause.

There are scores of people who
drag out miserable existence with
out realizing the cause Of their suf-
fering. Day after day they are rack
ed with backache and headache; suf-
fer from nervousness, dizziness, weak
ness, languor and depression. Per-
haps the kidneys have fallen behind
in their work of filtering the blood
and that may be the root of the
trouble. Look to your kidneys, assist
them in their work-give them the
help they need. You can use no more
highly recommended remedy than
Doan's Kidney Pills-endorsed by
people all over the country and by
your neighbors in Kingstree.
Mrs 7 S Kelly, Kingstree, says: l

back, and was sore and lame in the

and spells of dizziness. The kidney
secretions were unnatural. When |

Injured by Auto Skidding.

Orangeburg, April 30:-Ashley E
Merrimon. of Sumter. was killed;
Julian Wolfe, of this city, was seri-
ously injured, and several others
were hurt when an automobile ran
into ditch and struck a tree. about
two miles from Rowesville and sew
en- from Orangeburg, this afternoon
about 6 o'clock. A party of six
young men and three young ladies
was returning to Orangeburg in a
large touring car. The road was
exceptionally good, and it is said
that the car was running at rapid
rate of speed when it became un-
manageable. 1t seems that the
brakes were applied, causing the car
to skid into the tree.

Wolfe. the car contained the follow
ing: Sidney O Seignious, who was
severely cut on the leg and face;
Hammond Crum, of Denmark, slight
ly bruised; Eddie Blackmon. cut on

Crum, one rib broken; Miss Georgia
Manning, of Clio, several teeth

George, of Lexington. who was un-
hurt. The auto was demolished.
Julian Wolfe suffered broken leg
and it is feared that he is also in
ternally injured. He was taken to
hospital in Columbia tonight,
/ 1t seems that Mr. Merrimon was
instantly killed. He was caught un-
der the car and was dead when ef-
forts were made to rescue him. His
skull was crushed. He was a law
student at the University of South
Carolina and was spending the week
end ip Orangeburg as a member OF
a house party. He was graduate

ONE CENT SALE ON.

n. B. Danforth's "Rexall Store" Sec
ond and Market streets, opened a one
cent sale today TO continue for the
remainder OF the week.
What a one-cont sale is has puzzled
a number Of persons. II is a sale
where an article can be bought at its
regular price, and another Of the same
kind for one cent The sale prom
ises TO be a success.
The sale has strongly appealed TO
the people who want good values for
their money. The store is able to con-
duct such a sale only through the
plan developed by the United Drug
Company
Rather than spend large sums Of
money in other ways 10 convince buy
ers of the merits Of their goods, they
are spending Il on this sale. II is de-
cidedly u money saving opportunity
and the customer actually gets two
articles for the price Of one. plus the
one cent. such articles as tooth paste,
SOAP talcum powder, writing paper,
ETC. can be kept indefinitely and 1t Is
always well 10 have surplus supply
on hand. Not only are toilet articles
and drugs offered in the sale, but
housewives Will find two splendid
values I'm coffee and tea, grape juice,
cigars and such nOndescript articles.
