and I don't hanker after any more."
"Can you give us any particulars
about them?" was asked.
. "Why, yes, a few. when the last
cyclone came along I was out in the
field ^plowing with a four-mewl team.
I started to run for cover, but I had
'not gone more'n four rods when the
.wind picked me up, and the next thing
I knew I was astride of the back of
one of them mewls, and we were both
In a tree top, 50 feet above the ground.
The handles had been twisted out of
the plow and driven right through the
trunk of the tree and one of the other
mewls was hanging to them by his

you were left in the tree top?"

"But can't ? ask you how you got

"Oh, yes, you can ask that and wel

""I began to use Postum because the

THC STATE FAIR A SUCCESS
Contrary to the Custom Visitors Did
Not Leave After "Big Thursday."
Columbia, Special; - The State
Pair held here last week was a splen
did success from every standpoint.
The attendance was the largest in its
history and the exhibits surpassed
these of any previous year. The
crowds were good humored and every
body was well pleased.
The side shows were as popular as
ever and many lingered here * even
after the showmen had started to take
down their tents. The speilers were
at work explaining that each perfor
mance was the last and that all should
see their particular show or they
would regret it for a lifetime.
The Clemson boys were very much
in evidence and all over the grounds
the gray uniforms were to be seen.
There was a very fine exhibition of
mules in the area and the display of
the animals was very good. The win
ners of the events were as follows:
Best pair of harness mules, South
Carolina raised: First. H. H. Caugh
man, Lexington.
Best single harness mule, Souih
Carolina raised: First and second,
R. H. Caughman, Lexington.
Best mule, two years old,* South
Carolina raised: First, B. S. Rawls,
Lukesland; second, P. B. Taylor. Ba- i

Best mule, one year old, South

Chapin; second, R. E. Shannon,
Blackstock.
Best mule colt, under one year old,

Blackstock.
Best jenet and colt: First, Fred
Harmon, Lexington
Special best single harness horse or
mare, South Carolina raised, three
yesrs old: First, J. C. Shannon,
Blackstock.
All in all the fair has been the best
on record and it now seems that rho
time has come for the extension of the
length of the fete. The risk taken
yearly by the society in the event of
rain on the big days is large and the
fail' would be even more successful
uunder a full week's run.

A Minnesota Fish Story.
John Munter and John Frankson re
turned recently from a week's outing
at Swan lake. Mr. Muater tells this
fish story:
"Monday night we were crossing the
lake in a small boat, when I saw some
thing floating on the surface of the
water. Frankson said it was a fish,
and I stuck to It that it was a piece of
wood that had been criven by the
wind into the middle of the lake..
"Frankson insisted that it was a
fish, and was so sure of lt that he fired
a shot at it from a shotgun. Imagine
my surprise when I saw a monster
pickerel flopping about in the water.
We secured the fish and it weighed
close up to twenty pounds.

Two Grateful Letters from Women Who Avoided
Serious Operations.-Many Women Suffering
from Like Conditions Will Be Interested.
When a physician tells a wotiaan, suf
fering from ovarian or womb trouble,
that an operation is necessary it, of
course, frightens her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the kniie strikes terror, to
her heart. As one -woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation, she. felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals aro full of women
who are there for ovarian or womb
operations!
It is quite true that these troubles
may reach a stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed,
because a great many women have
been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must b? per
formed. In fact, up to the point where
the knife must be used to secure instant
relief, this medicine is certain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from
women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound, have
escaped serious operations.
Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. An
drew's Society, Hotel English, Indian
apolis, Ind.,writes of her cure as follows:
Dear Mrs. PInkham:
" I cannot find words to express mv thanks
for the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound did me. Tho <'->ctor said I could
not ?et well unless I had an operation for
ovar?an and female troubles. I knew I could
not stand the strain of an operation and made
up my mind I would be an invalid for life.
Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound had saved other womsn from
serious operations I decided to try it, and in
less than four months I was entirely cured;
and words fail to express my thankfulness."
Miss Margret Mcrkley of 275 3d
Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :
" Loss of strength, extreme nervousness,
severe shooting pains through the pelvio
organs, cramps, bearing down pains and
extreme irritation compelled me to seek
medical advice. The doctor, after making
an examination, said that I bad ovarian trou
ble and ulceration, and advised an operation
as my only hope. To this I strongly objected
-and ? decided as a last, resort to try j^ydio
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
" To my surprifio thc ulceration healed, all
the bad symptoms disappeared, and I am once
more strong, vigorous and well; and I can
not express my thanks for what it has done
forme."
Ovarian and womb troubles are
stcadilj' on the increase among women
-and before submitting to an opera
tion every woman should try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and
write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass,
for advice.
For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has been curing
the worst forms of female complaints',
all ovarian troubles, inflammation, ul
ceration, falling and displacement of
the womb, leucorrhcea, irregularities,
indigestion and nervous prostration.
Any woman who could read the many
grateful letters on file in Mrs. Pink
ham's office would be convinced of the
efficiency of her advice and Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
