Weather Forecast
Issued by the U. S. Weather Bureau,
Washington, D. C., for the week be
ginning Wednesday, May 19:
Fair Wednesday, followed by show
ers Thursday and Friday in • East Gulf
States and probably from Friday to
Sunday in the South Atlantic States,
followed by general fair weather there
after. Moderate temperatures.
''This year Mr. DeWitt has planted
76 acres in cantaloupes, cucumbers and
Tom Wataon watermelons, 600 acres in
cotton, 600 acre* in corn, 200 acres in
oats and 76 acres in wheat,” says the
Blackville Herald in a glowing "wrtte-
■p” of the splendid farm of Mr. W. H.
DeWitt How we do envy that Black-
villa editor this summer!
Remember, every word spoken in
favor of Germany's alleged right to
murder a shipload of non-combatants is
a word spoken against Americans.
Are YOU a German or an American?
A few short years ago the German
Kaiser warned the world against “the
Yellow Peril.” Now the newspapers of
Japan are railing against ‘the German
menace." What irony!
Here’s a new one for which The State
is responsible: "A prognacious Jaw in
menace.” Will The State kindly in
form us just what “prognacious
s
s?
Our latest information by wireless
was to the effect that Santa Claus has
decided to give his little friends no
more “made in Germany” toys.
"Man’s inhumanity to man "(has been
supplanted by Germany’s inhumanity
to men, women and children—particu
larly the latter.
We fail to see how Germany can “re
sume the offensive.” She has made
herself just that for lo, these many
months.
The News and Courier will confer a
favor on its readers if it will tell them
just who, what and why is Paul Wierse.
Surely the hand of Providence
in the election of Woodrow Wilson. ^
“To be or not to be (neutral).- That
is the question.”

i suffered for four
troubles, and during
Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter
from Ujis place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows:
years, with womanly troubles,
this time, 1 could only sit tip for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all At times, ( would have severe pains
in my left Side. ?
The doctor was called island his treat
ment relieved me for a while, bOf I was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that nothing seemed to do me any good.
I had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and 1 gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it wiB da Ask trim. .He wm recom
mend it Begin taking Cardui today. "
