CAN'T DO THE WORK

IT'S too much to try to work every
day against q constant. dull backache
or sudden dartins pain in the small
of the back. Be rid of It. Try Doan's
Kidney Pills. Your neishbors rec
ommend them. Ask your neighbor!
Mrs. J. B. Caudle, Church street,
Cheraw, says: II was so bad OF with
my back and kidneys couldn't do
my work On account Of the severe
backaehes. I was sore and lame and
tired very easily. had headaches
and spells Of dizziness. My kidneys
acted lrregualrly, too, and caused me
much annoyance. read Of Doan's
Kidney Pills and got supply at
Wannamaker 4 Sons Drug store. I
used about four boxes In all and was
entirely relieved Of all the trouble.
I use Doan's when I have any slight
return Of the complaint and they al
ways give good results
(ststement given December 9, 1919
On February I, 1918, Mrs. Caudle
said: "Doan's Kidney Pills are, with
out doubt, the best kidney remedy to
be had, and I certainly know, for l
have suffered terribly. and when a
remedy like Doan's cures you, you
can't speak too highly Of It. 1 am
glad to confirm my former state
ment."

THE DOOR SLAMS
ON HAPPINESS
Poor Blood Makes Bad Health-Then
Comes the "Blues"

Poor BLOOD MAKES BAD healtH-lnon
Comes the "Blues'
Once the vigor Of red blood becomes
sapped Of its strength, the door to hap
piness is literally slammed. Weari-
ness Of body follows and it unfailingly
engenders depressed thoughts. To be
reserved and cheerless becomes hao-
1t. After a time there is an almost
flmy dimness in the expression OF the
eyes and a pallor to the skin. Days
seem dull and dark and difficult. A
sense of insufferable gloom pervades
the spirit.
Then it is that GUIDES Pepto-Man-
gan is the great help. 1t Is a red
blood BUILDER. 1t puts red into the
blood-increases the number of cor,
puscles which make blood rich and
red. When the blood is restored to
its natural healthy state, the sensation
of well-being returns. Instead OF
shutting alogn carelessly, there is the
firm and springy step, the bright lus-
terful eyes, the clear complexion, iden-
titled with the strength and vigor
good health. The druggist has Guides
Pepto-Mangan in both liquid and tab

shows that the first three weeks Of
June we're too dry for normal dcvel-
opnent OF all the growing crops, eX-
cepr cotton, but rains appeared in
most sections during the last week
and improved conditions very ma
terially. Old corn, however, in many
places, is still badly in need Of more
rain. while other sections report too
much rain for cotton.
Increase in acreage Of corn, sweet
potatoes, rice. peanuts, sugar cane,
sorghum for sirup. An interesting
feature Of the report is the notable
increase in acreage of the leading
crops over last year, the increase"e
pressed in percentage being as fol-
lows: Corn II per cent: sweet pota-
