SCIENCE AIDS THE DYSPEPT|C
The Application of Scientific Treat
ment-SarDraS-Has Proven of
Great Benefit

To successfully treat any ailment
one must find the cause of the trouble.
To remove the cause is to eliminate
the disease.
Science teaches us that Dyspepsia
and Indigestion with the kindred all
mcnts are the result of careless treat
mcnt of the organs of digestion and
assimilation, and the resultant i'm
proper functioning of those organs.
To stop Indigestion and Dyspepsia
therefore, one has but to regulate the
habits, especially of eating, and assist
the stomach and liver in the discharge
of their functions.
SarDraS, scientific preparation of
medicinal herbs and roots contains the
proper ingredients to enliven the liver
and kidneys and renew the vigor of
the stomach glands. Contains no al
cohol.
If you are suffering from Digestive
troubles, regulate your habits and
take tablespoonful Of SarDraS be-
fore every meal. 1t will do what the
common laXatives cannot. The result
is simple and gratifying. Ask all
dealers and jobbers.

99,967 FORD CARS
made IN One MONTH
One Every Eighteen and Half Seconds
One Days Record.

During October oo,967 Ford cars
were made in the Ford factory at De-
troit and shipped out to join the four
and one-half million already in SER
vice. This is the highest record ever
reached by the Ford Company, or any
other company. Thirty-threc more
case would have brought production
up to the 100000 mark for the month.
October 26 was the banner day, hav-
ing brought forth 4,688 cars. This
was also record breaker. 1t means
that one was completed every eigh-
teen and one-half seconds for the en-
tire twenty-four hour day. The Ford
estimate for this year is one and one
quarter million cars and trucks.
1t was during the fall of 1909 that
Henry Ford placed on the market his
now famous Model "T"-the car that
brought Ford unquestioned supremacy
in the motor car industry. TO date,
more than four and one-half million of
this one model have been built and
distributed to the four corners of the
world. OF models prior to the "p',
thirty thousand were manufactured.
During 1910, 1904 Ford cars were
built tremendous output for those
days. Yet in ten years from that time
Ford production has grown to more
than one million year.
Almost half of the motor cars in the
world are Ford cars. In the United
States and Canada, a little better
than one-half are FOrds.-Adv.

ADVERTISE IN THE TIMES
TO BRIDGE SANTEE
AT MUKRAY'S FERRY

Columbia, Dec. 1.-THE State High
way Commission definitely determined
at it's meeting here today that the
proposed bridge across the Santee
river connecting Berkeley and Will
liamsburg counties and the lower and
middle sections of the State, would be
located either at Murray's Ferry or
within one mile of this spot. The def
mite location was not settled upon.
Five members of the Santee Bridge
Commission, headed by William Bur
guson, of Charleston, it's secretary, ex-
planned that the body had construed
the act passed at the last session Of
the Legislature to mean that 'e
bridge had to be built either at Nl,,r-
rays Ferry or within one mile of it,
interpreting the statute, which reads
"at or near Murray's Ferry" to mean
this.
The State commission agreed with
the Interpretation and approved it..
Obeying instructions of the Bureau of
Public Roads, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, which believed
that the bridge could be constructed
cheaper three and onc-half miles from
Murray's Ferry than at the crossing,
the State Highway Engineer had COM
pleted survey at the designated spot
and estimated that htc difference in
saving would be only $4,000, which
wa sncgligiblc in such a large enter
prise.
Members Of the Santec Bridge Com
mission said that the additional con-
venience to the public in having the
bridge placed at or near Murray's
Ferry would more than compensate
the increase in cost.
