Mr.. F. l.. Wolfe,
Manning, S. C.
Dear Sir:-
In reply to your favor asking what think of
the Hudford' Truck, (27ton) which I purchased
SO much of it, that could not get along without
it and wish very much that had another.
We haul anything that wish this truck,
and never have any trouble whatever with it.
We haul cord of green wood nine. miles over
the worst kind of roads with it, We do not make
just one trip but make an average of four trips
per day.
The only trouble that have had with the truck,
is that broke the driving shaft, which the
Company replaced without a question I am
certain that the breaking of this shaft caused
by the way the truck put up here.
Any one having much hauling to do, it will
most certainly pay them to invest IN of these
trucks, as l find that mine will GO more work
than four good mules and do it much cheaper.
Yours very truly,
MANNING LIGHT AND ICE CO.,
L. II. Harvin, Sec. and Treas.

Many a woman endures with noble
patience the daily misery Of backache,

spells, dizziness and kidney disorders,
HOPELESS Of relief because she doesn't
know what Is the matter.
1t is not true that every pain in the
back or hips is trouble peculiar to
the SEX" Otter when the kidneys get
congested and inflamed, such aches
and pains follow.
Then help the weakened kidneys.
Don't expect them to get we'll alone.
Doans Kidney Pills have won the
praise Of thousands Of women. They
are endorsed-Read this Maysville wo-
mans convicing statement:
Miss Dora Edgington, Wood st.
Maysvilles, says: II have used Doans
Kidney Pills and from the results re-
ceived, have every reason to recon-
mend them. At times, my kidneys have
become weak and have been irregular

TARIFF REVISION
by the Next Congress Will Meet With
No Serious Opposition According to
One Of the Leading Republi.
cans Of the Country.

Washington, March 1.-THE Repub-
lican Publicity Association, through
its President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne,
Ir., today gave out the following state
ment at its Washington Headquarters
I'm the tariff revision which the Re-
publican majority of the next House
| Of Representatives will undertake, no
such resistance will be encountered
as that which almost without excep-
ton has been experienced by tariff
legislators in the past. If the Wilson,
Underwood law has performed no 9TH
or good service it has served to con-
vince the people once more that the
Democratic policy is wrong in every
particular.
Since the enactment of that law
We have witnessed each session the
Democrats enacting some sort of tax
legislation in the hope of making up
'ur losses in customs revenue. We
have had the war tax, with its adhe-
'ive stamps plastered from Maine to
California, exacting as its petty trib-
ute for communication enough cop
per pence to wire the nation, taxes on
capital stock, income and corporation
taxes, the rates finally doubled, the
free sugar clause repealed, bond is
sues authorized, a tax on munitions,
on inheritances, on profits; encroach-
ments on States sources of revenue in
every direction, while the average tar
III rate Of duty at our ports fell from
20 to 10, to II, and at length to less
than 8 per cent. And still the Treas
ury deficit grew and expanded.
I'm its effect on our trade the peo-
pie saw our imports increasing at the
monthly rate of $4,000, 900 during the
first ten months of its operation be-
fore the war broke out, while our ex-
ports were falling off at the monthly
rate Of $16,0OO,O00. They know that
in spite Of the fact that 1916 was
war year imports increased $500, OOO,-
900 over 1913, nine months under pro-
lection, while customs revenues for
1916 were $93,0O0,OOO less than for
1913. They recall the depression
which existed before the war began,
and they are acquainted with the part
which the war has played in our as:
tonishing export trade and resulting
prosperity.
But, more convincing than all this
is the certainty with which we look
forward to postwar competition. We
know that the entire commercial pol
