Of Interest to Chesterfield Readers
For months Chesterfield citizens
have seen in these columns enthusias.
tic praise of Doan's Kidney Pills, by
residents of this locality.
Would these prominent people re-
commend a remedy that had not pro-
ven reliable?
Would they confirm their state
ments after years had elapsed if per-
sonal experience had not shown the
remedy to be worthy of endorsement?
The following statement should
carry conviction to the mind of every
Chesterfield reader:
w. A. McCormac, Dillon, s. c.,
says: ~ suffered from backache al
most constantly. The kidney secre-
tions were discolored and filled with
sediment. Nothing gave me relief
until I used Doan's Kidney Pills. They
stopped the backache. strengthened
my kidneys and cleared up the kidney
secretions." Statement given March
9Th, 1909.
Over Six Years Later, Mr.. McCor-
mac said: 81 still take Doan's Kidney
Pills occasionally when my back aches
or have any other signs of kidney
trouble and they never fail to re-
lieve me-"

YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
up a corn or callus so it lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the
shoes that nearly killed you before
says thisCincinnati authority, because
few drops of freezone applied de-
rectly on a tender, aching corn or cal
lus, stops soreness at once and soon
the cern or hardened callus loosens so
it can be lifted out, root and all, with
out pain.
A small bottle of Freezone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as it
is inexpensive and is said not to irri-
tate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any free
zone tell him to get a small bottle for
you from his wholesale drug house.
1t is fine stuff and acts like a charm
every time. 1-Adv

owl. Is one Of the most beneficial of

exclusively on small mammals that

such mammals as pocket gophers,

tkRkSPUR As MENACE
Determined Definitely to Be Poi
sonous to Live Stock.
Uncle Same Experts Undertake Big
Task OF Eliminating Plant From
the National Forests.

Uncle Sans forest service, In line
with its general policy to better the
conditions Of the national forest ranges,
Is now undertaking the eradication of
various poisonous plants which each
year, 1t Is stated. cause the loss Of
some 100000 worth Of live stock using
the ranges as pasture.
Forest rangers and others have made
an investigation Of this condition, and
1t has been ascertained that, while
other plants are known to poison live
stock. larkspur Is the one which is
responsible for the greatest losses Of
cattle on mountain stock ranges, and
consequently the one plant which the
service Is determined it must dispose
Of In some way or other.
This plant occurs. 1t has been found,
both "as scattered plants and in
patches. varying In size up to as much
as 100 acres. The bulk Of the losses
from cattle are confined to those areas
where the plant Is more plentiful and
where, therefore, 1t Is possible for the
cattle to obtain larger quantities Of 1t.
In an effort to conquer this evil many
OF the ranges containing the largest
patches Of larkspur have been fenced
by the stockmen, but this NJ II is
not only expensive, but 1t al Usually
involves the loss Of a large quantity
OF valuable forage which is included
In the infested range.
1t has been known, 1t Is said, In a
general way for years that larkspur
Is poisonous to live stock, but there
has been, up to recently, very little
definite knowledge on the subject.
Therefore, it was necessary to carry
out number of experiments to find
out what effect the plant had on vari-
Gus kinds Of animals; whether all the
varieties Of the plant are poisonous,
and last, whether the cases Of poison
Ing are caused by the eating of the
roots OF the plant, or eating the leaves
and stalks.
Extended experiments have been con-
Quoted along these lines which have
shown that some animals are poisoned
by the plant, while others are not.
With the results Of these experiments
the forest service has been able to
make Its plans for handling the ranges
on which the larkspur occurs and for
the eradication Of the plant. It was
found that the most satisfactory meth
Cd OF solving the larkspur problem
would be to grub up the plants by the
roots. Considering the wide areas
that must be covered, this sounds like
a man-sized Job, and 1t Is; but the re-
suits which have been obtained, it is
said, have proved that the expense in
volved has been more than justified.
