The Problem of a
Tired Mother.
^7
( T^ie funny papers have told,
/ time and again, how it makes a
' man feel to be shut up alone
with the children even for a
few hours*
It’s no wonder that nerve
troubles attack the mother for
she has the children all the
time. How can she help being
nervous, especially while the
little ones are making such con*
slant drafts on her Energy ?
No woman can endure the
strain of her housework and
two or three little ones unless
her digestive powers are of an
unusual order. She can’t man*
ufacture force enough to stand
the strain.
We can suggest one thing
that will surely help her and it
isn’t a drug poison either. It
Is Vinol, made by a remarkable
j new process from that wonder
ful remedy, cod liver oil, a
true tonic.
Money back if you don’t find
this true.

WOMEN AND SOCIETY.
[All Communications to tills column sliould
be addressed to P. O. Box
Every woman admires pretty din
ner gowns, and every jwoman should
make it a point to look as charming
as possible on sucii occasions as call
for a gathering around the festive
board. Our illustration shows a
dinner gown fashioned of pastel-blue
voile. The blouse waist is gathered
to a deep yoke, embroidered with
Corticelli filo silk in a spreading
flower design, and the odd garniture
that frames the yoke and extends
down the front consists of black vel
vet diamonds edged with narrow sil
ver braid. The vest is made of nar
row folds of voile and the tucked
sleeves spring out into puffs ending
r - 7/
.
w
in rufiles. The skirt ;is adorned with
clusters of horizontal tucks and com
pleted with a Vandyck-pointed
flounce handsomely embroidered with
Cort celli filo silk to match the yoke,
falling over a gathered under-flounce
of pastel-blue chiffon. The belt is
of black velvet fastening with a silver
buckle iu front.
Entire lace blouses are.still^fashion-
able, though some models show a
lustrous doth or silk combined, this
being noticeable when the blouse is
to be worn with a skirt made of the
same material as that used with the
lace. Long basques or skirts of the
lace, having the edges finished with
the cloth or silk, are an innovation
on some of these models.

Mr. Itlack’a Plan* for Farming.
R. G. Black was in to see us Tues
day. He said farmers were getting
low-spirited on account of the con
tinued rains and he, like the others,
was wishing for dry weather, but was
not despondent, for last year he
hauled his first load of fertilizer to
his farm on the 9th day of April and
finished planting his cotton on the
29th, that he never made a better
crop in his life, and the last be plant
ed made the best crop.
He also stated that he planted his
first corn last year on the 15th of
May. He planted it on unland and
made as good crop as he ever did in
his life. He said under no circum
stance would he plant any of his
main crop of corn before the tenth of j
May.
We insert the above because Mr,
Black is a practical and successful '
farmer who every year makes his hog
and hommany at home and as much
cotton to the plow as any man in
Cherokee.

Do not miss the lecture on Alaska
at the opera house on next Tuesday

Alaska and its beautiful scenery."
The following regarding Miss
Courtney, from Edgefield, appeared
in The State recently.
‘‘Miss Elinor Courtney, of Edge-
