NOVEMBER 27, 1913. “Th# Least of TSes«.” Two little girls, evidently the chil dren of some not too »uccessful farm er, came to Barnwell last week to at tend the Fair. They had a nlckle apiece to spend. At one of the num erous “wheels of fortune" they heard the man shout, *.‘A doll for a dime " “Let's put our nickles together and get us a doll," said one of the little tots So they pooled their meagre mites and invested in a ticket that they fondly hoped would win for them the cher ished doll baby. The Barnwell lady who tells this story could not bear to stay and see the disappointment on the childish faces if they lost, so we can only hope they got the lucky numt>er But how many little boys and girls in Barnwell County are going to be dit appointed on Christmas morning when they awake to find that .Sant* Clau% has paaaed them by' Old NhW is • mighty g'>od old fellow it tt true hut like many other i*e<>ple his purse is , limited and every year many a .dt.e , heart is tore and sick with dr 1 ferred l.et esery msn snd woman ^ who Is a tile t o do so make the little vm or the little daughter of tomr Ira* for Tax Sale State of South Carolina, I County of Barnwell, i By virtue of sundry tax executions to me directed bv J.

An excellent lesson in the vtlue of good roads was giwn by (ieorge Cul len, s (ieorgia farmer, recently Mrt Cullen, who lives about ten miles from Dublin, hauled thirty bales of cotton s one time on one wagon The load wss hauled with nine mules hitched to a steel-frame, roller-bearing wagon The cotton was sold at auction to the highest bidder and brought M cents a pound all around, netting approximately $2,1000 Thi^s no doubt the largest load of cotton ever hauled in this country, and had it not been for the excellence of the Georgia roads the feat would have been impossible. When the farmers of Barnwell County and the State at large are fully alive to the great sav ing that better roads will mean to them in the marketing of their crops, this section will enjoy good highways. Su pervisor Diamond is doing what he can with the money and machinery at his command, but even this leaves much to be desired. “Have a heart’’ and do your Christ mas shopping early.

She says further: “Before 1 began to use Cardui, my back and head wouki.hgrt so bad, I thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework, as well as run a big water mill. I wish every suffering woman would give CARDUI The Woman’s Tonic a trial. I still use Cardui when I feel a little bad, and it always does me good.” Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness, tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman’s tonic. You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailing women for more than fifty years. Get a Bottle Today!
