talking of the lasting bene

I this sensational medicine.
“Why, before I got Karnak my
■ stomach was so terribly out of or
der that my tongue kept coated, my
breath foul, and after every meal
there was such a heavy feeling in
the pit of n.y stomach and such a
terrible burning sensation it just
seemed like I had swallowed a red
hot brick. Why, I would puff up
with gas so tight I had to loosen
my clothes. I just felt like some
thing was closing in around my
heart and smothering me to death.
I tell you, many a night I simply
had to get up and pace the floor

During the year leading up to my
complete breakdown I tried every
medicine I knew of and just got so
disheartened I hardly expected to
ever see another well day.
“I got Karnak as a last chance
and started taking it regularly ac
cording to directions, and it wasn’t
any time before I began to pick
up right along. Karnak soon put
n.y stomach in such good condition
I could eat anything set on the ta
ble, too, without it hurting me a
bit, and I tell you, by the time I
finished my sixth bottle I just felt
likt twenty years had been lifted
from my age.
“It’s a fact, I never felt bettter
in my life. I got on the scales and
found I had gone up in weight
from 142 to 162 pounds, a gain of
20 pounds. Nights T slept like a
top, and morning I felt so good I
just got out and took a good long
walk before going to work. And
the beauty of it is, I haven’t felt
a sign of any of my old troubles
although I stopped taking Kanak
last winter after it fixed me up. It’s
without a doubt the greatest medi
cine ever made, and you can bet
your life it will do more than is
claimed for it.”

cd help in his office now and th it
alone one man could not fill both
jobs.
“On the streets they will tell you
that the office 1 hold pays SIO,OOO
a year,” Mr. Brittain said. “This is
not true by a long sight, and I can
not, see where the county can save
a dollar by combining the two offi
ces and placing one man on a sal
ary. f am not opposing the pas
sage of such a bill, but I do thin!:
that it should not go into effect un
til the end of the term for which
I have been elected.”
Neither Mr. Small nor Mr. Brit
tain stated specifically what each
was paid in the form of fees, but
from his talk to the commissioners
it was intimated that the two offi
ces combined paid about $6,000 i
year.
The commission adopted a reso
lution calling for the consolidation
of the two offices and requesting
that the naming of the salary for the
consolidated office be left with the
commission.
11. A. Cliett .county agent, was
granted a two weeks vacation, begin
ning the latter part of the month.
He asked the commission to repair
or rebuild the hog sales pens be
fore September hog sales begin and
was told that the pens would be
“fixed” before September.
Mr. Cliett said that the recent
agricultural survey made in the
county showed Sumter county to no
producing almost everything th it
grows. “Our products are as varied
as in any county in the South,” ho
said. “This survey has given us
some valuable and important facts.
The Seaboard railway is coming in
this week to take some pictures of
our crops—peaches, watermelons,
cantaloupes, corn, cotton, and oth
er things. I am compiling the data
and expect to use these pictures and
data in an illustrated booklet so
we can tell the world what a great
county we have.
“Such a booklet should be sent
all over the country. Farmers from
the north and east and the Caro
linas should have one and when they
see what can be done here, they
will buy our lands.”
The commission told Mr. Cliett
to go ahead with the booklet and
that the commission would aid him
in any way it could. “I was born
in North Carolina,” Chairman Neal
Ray said, “But they haven’t any
such land up there as we have here.
The trouble with we folks is we
don’t advertise. If farmers knew
what we have here, they would come
to Sumter in droves. We must tell
them and such a booklet as this
will be worth lots of money to us.”
“We have the best people here
in the world, and folks like to live
where there are good people. We
got the best soil and the best
crops in such a variety that even
we don’t know’ all that we raise
I here.
Other members of the commis
ision expressed like views of the sub
ject and told Mr. Cliett to prepare
his data and get pictures as earlv
as possible for distribution through
every possible source that will reach
farmers looking for locations in the
South.
