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 chil4
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 un'til the livere 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 of 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,
you will suffer from such disagree.

Thedford's Black-Draught has been

be on an equal 'footing with the buy
er. The holders of spot cotton should
not permit the sentimental influences
pn prices in the exchanges to affeet
the real values of their present hold
ings or what they may produce in
1920. 8 If it cost 38 cents to produce
a pound of middling unlind cotton in
1919, the present price of such grades
show but little profit to the growers,
while October contracts are being
quoted several cents under the cost of
production and are going down every
day."
