THE SOUTH, A LAND OF WEALTH - The Southern Newspaper Publish ers' Association, of which The News is a member, is composed of the larg est and most successful papers of the Southern states. This association is a live wire in the development of the South along every material line. Just now it has fallen upon the unique scheme of turning the attention ol advertisers in other sections of the United States to the South and to the Southern newspapers. As a result of the desire to do this it is com---mencing a line of advertising . in "Printer's Ink," which i3 striking in context and get-up. . On yesterday The News published a fac similie copy of the first adver tisement which has appeared and we believe the facts it contained will be gratifyingly new to most Southern people. We all know that New England is immensely rich but did you know that the comparison with the South "shows the latter to be infinitely more so? The advertisement commences, "Whatever the commodity the thirty million people of the South have the desire to buy it, and what is more importan, the money," then follow statistics from the United States national bank report of June 24, 1915, which shows that while demand de posits in New England amounted to $484,854,630.90 the demand deposits cl the Southern states aggregated the grand total of ?586,155,168.68. Time deposits in New England banks amounted to $73,175,851.23 as against time deposits in Southern states ol $149,406,705.82. The fact was likewise noted that of the twelve federal reserve banks established in the entire United States three of them were placed in the South. The advertisement concludes: "And tho most effective and economical ap peal for this wealth lies through the Southern newspapers. They offer a combined circulation of 2,554,672 at $6.21 per agate line on a 2,500 line basis, and $4.95 per line on a 10,000 line basis. Surely this is worthy your careful investigation. . Aside from the importance of. the Southern newspaper as a general ad vertising medium, as this advertise ment emphasizes, the manner in which the South has surpassed New England in wealth is a consideration of great importance. Up until recent years the bulk ot tho South's cotton crop was shipped North to be manufactured, but today tho tables have changed and the South manufactures more cotton goods than does the North. In other respects we are utilizing our natural resources and adding to the wealth . of the section. THE FUND GROWS. ; In addition to the list published Monday, the following contributions to The News' school book fund have : been received: - A. Thies .. .. .. I5.no C. W. Tillett i.oo Miss A. H. Brown i.oo An idea of the interest taken by tha public in this campaign for the .benefit of poor children may be had by the letter which Mr. Thies sent along with his contribution of five dollars. He writes: "Enclosed please find a check for $5.00 which I wish. to give to the fund you are raising, to provide proper school books for the poor children of our city. It is in deed a worthy cause and I sincerely trust you will soon have the re quired sum. ".Very truly, etc." SOUTH CAROLINA DRY. In the election held yesterday in South Carolina the prohibition forces won by what now seems to be at least twenty thousand majority. the Jaw absolutely prohibits the sale of beers, wines and liquors. It becomes operative the first of next January. South Carolina's experience with the liquor problem has been long and varied. The last form in which it has been handled has been by local option in the counties, those so de siring being allowed to operate dis pensaries. .The new law is state-wide in its scope and will mean the clean- !ing out of all dispensaries in the state. It is said the law as so drawn as to leave "but few loop-holes." 1 j The results of this election may be surprising to many, that is with re- j gard to the size of the majority. It only goes furttfer to show the trend of public sentiment the country over. John Barleycorn is not on the go. he is on the run and runriing fat from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf. Few prohibition fights have been lost, no matter in what state or section they have. been staged. .South Carolina sim ply lines up with an ever increasing Majority. Shall we harbor the horrible sus picion that Bob Gray left South Car olina on the strength of a hunch as to what would happen? However the next Paragraphers' Onion meeting is to be held in Co limbia in November some little time before the old berg dries up. We suppose that today a bunch of crepe is displayed on the door of Bob Gonzales' office. September has taught us a greater love for B. V. D.'s and palm leaf fans. Important to all Women Readers of this Paper Thousands upon thousands of wo men have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it. Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer a great deal with pain in the back, bearing down feel ings, headache and loss of ambition- Poor health makes you nervous, irri table and' may be despondent; it makes any cne so. But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restor ing health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions. A good kidney medicine, possessing real healing and curative value, should be a blessing to thousands of nervous, over-worked women. Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swramp-Root, the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy will do for them. Every reader of this paper, who has not already tried it, by enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing hamton, N. Y., may receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase the regular fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles at all drug stores. . Claims Presented at Meeting of Creditors of Gold Hill Consolidated Company Special to The News.

The proposition to redredge Clark's creek was defeat ed today by a votp of 83 to 76 in a meeting of the landowners interested. There was nothing said to indicate when redredging would take place but it will not be soon, although the ma jority against it now was only seven. For the current year a tax of $1 the acre will be collected to pay off old scores and after that nothing will be done until the stream's condition be comes much worse than at present Several thousand acres of fine botton land are involved in the re clamation project, which was put through several years ago.

Tells Why Food Does Not Always Pro duce Mestrand What Thin Folks , Should Do To Gain Weight. Most people who arc thin and un derweight eat just as heartily .as do folks who ' are stout and well built but they cannot seem to gain in weight. They , finally think its their nature to be thin and that nothing can make them fat. But this is not necessarily true. While flesh and fat must of course come from! food nourishment it' has been proved time and time again that most thin people have defective pow ers of assimilation and that the bulk of the fat-forming elements of their meals is .passing right through their bodies, never reaching theblood at all. Naturally, therefore, they stay thin. y By a simple correction of the assim ilative functions this condition .rapid ly changes and thin people take on new flesh and weight at an amazing rate. A preparation known as x Sar gol offers a splendid means for accom plishing this purpose. Sargol is an ideal combination of well known as similative agents. A single concen trated tablet eaten with meals has, according to reports received in many cases within a short time been the means of adding from ten to thirty pounds of solid, healthy flesh. It does not make flesh of itself but its aim is to stop the leakage and waste of fatty nourishment and to prepare the flesh building elements of food into a form which the blood can readily ab sorb and distribute throughout the body. The effect of this added nour ishment in weight increase is remark able. Thin folks can easily and safe ly make this test for Sargol is harm less, .pleasant to take and inexpen sive and R. H. Jordan & Co. and many other leading druggists agree to sell it on a positive guarantee of weight increase or money back. This guaran tee, plainly printed, is found in every large package. LIFE INSURANCE & CREDIT. In discussing the relations of life in surance to the credit fabric of busi ness, Mr. A. Barton Hepburn, Chair man Board of Directors of Chase Na tional Bank, said: "There wras a time when it was a rule, even among con servative business men, to carry large ly, if not entirely, the risks of fire, ac cident and death, against which today it is almost the universal custom to insure. Then a lack of life insurance did not carry special significance. Now the failure of a man to take the pre cautions which are commonly taken by his fellowmen is a fact of such im portance as to. put the prospective creditor on notice and call for careful inquiry as to why he; things he can disregard what has come to be the common judgment of mankind. Or to put it another way, the man a gen eration ago who carried life insurance of large amount was so exceptional as to excite inquiry as to his reasons and motives for so doing, while today it is the man who thinks he can af ford to do without life insurance that is subjected to inquiry."
