A MEDICINE In Her Mother's Home, Says Thu Georgia Lady, Regarding Black Draoght Relief From Head ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc. Ringgold, Ga.- Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: "I am a user of Thedford's Black-Draught; In fact, it was one of our family medicines. Also in my mother's home, when I was a child. When any of us child ren complained of headache, usually caused by constipation, she gave us a dose of Black-Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty reg ular until the liver acted well, and we would soon be up and around again. We would not be without it, for it certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just a dose Df Black Draught when not so well saves a lot of days in bed." Thedford's Black-Draught has been in use for many years in the treat ment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which it now enjoys is proof of its merit If your liver is not doing its duty, yon will suffer from such disagree able symptoms as headache, bilious ness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result Thedford's Black-Draught has been found a valuable remedy for these troubles. It Is purely vegetable, and ects In a prompt and natural way, regulating the liver to its proper functions and cleansing the bowels of impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed* ford's, the original and genuine. B 79 117 Acres of Good Farming Land On Aiken road, three miles from Trenton. One of the best commu nities in Edgefield county.

Take Care of Your lires America's greatest need is for ships more ships. Every available vessel is being utilized in government service. Many ships that have been carrying rubber from Sumatra and Brazil have been taken for active transport duty. The number now left to bring rubber to this country is extremely limited. This will necessarily force a temporary curtail ment of tire production. So, make the most of the tires you have. Use good tires. Take good care of them. Keep them in perfect repair. See that they are properly inflated. Increase their mileage by careful driving. Keep out of car tracks and away from bumps. Don't scrape the curb 'Usco . Tread OT apply brakes too suddenly. Get every mile your tires have in them. Only in that way can you be assured of your car's contin uous service-and remember, your tire is a vital war-time necessity. So again, -take care of your tires.
