Reliably Information
All American women know of the great success of
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound in restor
ing to health women who suffered from ailments pe
culiar to their sex, yet there are some who are skeptical
and do not realize that all that is claimed for it is
absolutely true—if they did, our laboratory would not
be half large enough to supply the demand, though-
today it is the largest in the country used for the
manufacture ol one particular medicine. *
Thd^Pacts contained in the following two letters should
prove of benefit to many women:
Buffalo, N, Y,—“ I suffered with Sacramento, Cajif —“ I had
organic inflammation and displace
ment. When lifting I had such pain
and hearing down that I was not
able to stand up, and it hurt me to
walk or go up or down stairs. I was
going to a doctor without any re
sults and he said the safest thing
would be to havo an operation. I
met a lady who told me she hod
three operations and was not well
until she took Lydia £. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound.
I felt relief after takifig two bottles
of Vegetable Compound and I kept
on with it until I was cured. I al
ways use Lydia £. Pinkham’s Liver
Pills and they are fine. Everything
used to turn sour on my stomach and
the Liver Pills relieved that.”—Mrs.

Clemson College June 24—The
Planters’ Produce and Storage Com
pany of Florence 4 n ^ of
Timmonsvllle, through the agency
of County Agent J. W. McLendon,
are doing good work with fhe club
hoys in the Timmonsvllle territory
by means of a Potatb Club.' A do*-
en oi more boys around Timflions-
vl.le have already enrolled to cohi
pete for prizes offered by the Plant
ers' Produce and Storage Company
for the best acre of sweet potatoes
grown by any mender of the club,
whic h is to contain not less tban 25
members.
The original offer of the Planters
Company is for prizes of $25 for the
best acre of potatoes, $15 for the
second Lest, and $10 for the third
best, to be awarded on the basis of
yield, growth, quality and market
ing desirability.
The Bank of Timmonsville (thru
Vice-President R. C. Rollings) de
cided after the Planters’ Company
had made its offer, that this bank
would finance all boys of the Tim
monsville section who wish to enter
the competition, in thin way plants
fertilizer, labor, and any other sup
plies may be obtained by the young
slers in thei- undertaking.
Quite, a number ot larmers will
plant potatoes c« nimetdally this sea
son in acreages from 2 to 10 acres.
’Tills is another great step," says
McLendon, “toward putting Flor
ence county ahead of the boll Wee
vil. and it will result in tkking the'
’evil’ out of the weevil.’’

or
ganic trouble and had such terrible
pain and swelling in the lower part
of my side that I could not stand on
my feet or even let the bed clothes
toucli my side. I gave up my work
thinking I would not be able to go
back for months. My mother ad
vised me to take Lydia E. Piukham’s
Vegetable Compound as it had saved
her life at one time, and it put me
.in a wonderful condition in a couple
of weeks, so I cau keep on working.
I .work in a department store and
have to stand on my feet all day and
I do not have anv more pains. I
surely recommend your Y*egetable
Compound to all my friends and you
may use these facts as a testimon

While we were at boarding-school

10th of January. Oh, the Joy of the
Christmas on the plantation! We
had to have presents .for so many—
fruit and candy and dolls and, huts
and handkerchiefs .and stockings
and head handkerchiefs.. Rejoicing
and festivities every*wbe*a! All
busy preparing and selecting Christ

with little children helplpff thorn

round with grown-ups a^d filling
stockings. Christmas morning very
early, "Iferry Christmas!” echoing
all over the house; all the .houde ser
vants stealing in softly to “ketch
yu,” that is, say the magic words
“Merry Christmas!" before you did.
Then joyful sounds, “I ketch you!"
and you must produce your gift,
whereupon they bring from the am
ple bosom or pocket, as the case
may 1-e, eggs tied in a handkerchief
r—two, three, six, perhaps a dozen,
according to the worldly pdsitlon. -of

tithe. As fast as one party left aap

vants had to creep up softly fo eacp
door and "ketch” each tnember df
receive their presents, . and qpep
them and exhibit them and .compare
them and see the children’s pres
ents and do an immense deal of
unnecessary talking and Joking. So
that it was hard for them to settle
down and come to prayers, which
papa had always in the library,, and

well-trained servants, ,... ’ i ‘. < ‘
