Offer Service Free of Charge

The Associated Doctors. Specizl-
lists licensed and authorized by the
State Of S. c., and who have met
with such phenomenal success will
be In kingStree cu Saturday, August
9Th, fo7 orc day only to demonstrate
their new system of treatment of
chronic disease cases. These regular,
r. Gutabie physicians believe that the
combined skill of several trained
specialists in chronic disease cases
can accomplish more than one doctor
alane-in other words, in unity there
is strength
The offer. to treat all wha. call on
this visit absolutely free, is their
original method of getting their sys-
tenn of treatment before the public
quicker, and no one, rich or poor,
white or colored, should neglect to
take advantage of their very liberal
free offer-ABSOLUTELX FREE
(medicine eXcepted). No cutting, no
knife.
1t makes no difference how many
doctors you have consulted or how
many patent medicines you have
taken, you cannot afford to miss this
opportunity of ascertaining your eX-
act condition and be honestly adyis-
ed. No one should require furthes
evidence of the skill of these special
lists than the following:
TESTIMONY:
Mrs. S. A. Baker, LAMAR, S. C.,
writes: 81 am feeling lots stronger
and better. Have a good appetite. l
am sure glad I am taking your RENE
dies"
william C. Or, Bamheurg, S. c.,
writes: 81 have. taken all the RENE
dies you prescribed for me and am
feeling much better. VIII you please
send me another"
C. L. Therrel, Chesterfield, S. c.,
writes: 81 am getting on just fine
Feel we'll, eat we'll and. sleep we'll"
Now that you know the truth, ycu
have only yourself to blame if you
continue to suffer from Piles, Kid
(ney and bladder trouble, Discharges,
Bed Wetting, Blood Poison, Skin,
Eruptions, Rheumatism, Epilepsy,
Uric Acid Poisoning, Paralysis, Nerv-

Bear in mind that this will likely
be the last visit When the specialists
extend their services FREE.
Hundreds havs been restored ts
their perfect good health, with rosy
cheeks and sparkling eyes-so may
you. The specialists are too vel

KEEP IN YOUR PLACE

1t is a foregone fact and pre-; all:
throughout the length and hreadli
Of the United States that the Negro
get into serious trouble when.
ever he attempts to modest white
J women. This fact has been demon
strated by lynchings and "clean ups
Z among the race in nearly every State
in the union. The negroes in many
cases form themselves into mobS and
attempt to protect culpret against
white mobs, but Mr.. Negro usually
gets the worst of it in the end, and
most frequently just what is due or
coming to him. If he escapes punish
ment at the hands of the mob he is
speedily handled by the courts. And
IN this day of enlightment we can
see no excuse for such conduct on
the part of the most ignorant classes
OF the race, especially in a great
city ike Washington, where mobs of
white men, military and civilian,
have taken it upon themselves to put
a stop to the numerous atrocities
committed by negroes upon innocent
white women. A similar outbreak oc-. .
Cured in Norfolk several days ago
and a number of people were shot. .
At Denmark, in Bamburg county
last week a negro man named Brown !
attempted to kill some white men
who had testified in a magistrates
court against him. Brown and his
race got the worst of the undertak-
ing for he was killed in his tracks,
and an innocent negro mortally
wounded, also there is strong prob
ability that others of his race will
yet suffer at the hands of the law as
q result of his madness. In this af-
fair three white men were shot, one
of whom has since died from his
wounds.
The negro man who walks upright
~ obeys the laws of his state, prop
'erly respects white men and white
women neve, gets into trouble, ne IS !
respected by white people and the
laws of the land place around him
the same protection that it. gives to
all other men.
1t is best that the colored man
know his place and not overstep the
line of racial equality. There IS
strong line of demarkation, and
leaders of the colored race realize
it and preach it to their fellows, yet
there are those among them who
seem to thing they can insult white
BFomen, Iill white men on minor
provocations and get away without
paying tie penalty. This idea IS
wrong, though years may sometimes
.elapse before the hand of justice gets
|the offender within its grip and the
law is vindicated.
