Home Keeping Women Need
Health and Strength.
The work of a home keeping
woman makes a constant call on
her strength and vitality, and
sickness results from weak in
active kidneys, and irregular
bladder action more often than
she knows. So many times it
turns out that her weakness,
tired out nervousness, headaches,
depression and weak back are
caused by kidney trouble instead
of female trouble and Foley Kid
ney Pills have helped many a
woman back to a state of strong
buoyant healthful activity. Foley
Kidney Fills are a blessing in
the home. A lady of Saginaw,
Mich.. Mrs. Anna Drebold, 162
Oak wood Ave., writes: "I had
terrible pains across my back, I
was very nervous and felt all
tired out I took Foley Kidney
Pills and in just a few days the
pain and nervousness all passed
away and I no longer suffer."

Cut and Shot to Death
at High Point -Woman
Scared to Death.
Greensboro News, 8th.
Thinking they had caught the
negro detective who had turned
up 13 alleged retailers, a crowd
of negroes in the suburbs of
High Point Saturday night killed
Robert Hall, who strongly re
sembled the detective. Hall was
knocked down, was severely cut
across the leg, then shot through
the heart. Three negroes against
whom suspicion is strong are
guarded in the calaboose,
The murder occurred after a
wholesale raid had been made by
the police on information furn
ished by the detective, who had
been at work since Tuesday.
Starting at 9 o'clock the force
gathered up 13 negroes, the
completing
the arrests in 45 minutes. The
friends of these arrested set
about to do away wTith the detec
tive who would be the witness,
and thought they had him when
they got Hall.
Hali was caught about 11 o'clock
just east of High Point in the
edge of the district occupied by
the negroes. The assault was
directly in front of a house,
and the woman there
heard someone say "shoot him"
followed by the pistol shot. As
she opened the door the crowd
ran. There were several in the
party.
The dead body which was in
the road was found by a passing
negro man who notified the po
lice. They started to work on
the case immediately and by 3
o'clock were making further ar
rests, this time taking up 20 to
