Women shou.d t.ear this important fact in mind when they go into a drug store, and be sure not to accept anything that is claimed to be “ just as good ” as Lydia E.

How Another Sufferer Was Cured. 44 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—I cannot praise your wonderful remedies enough, for they have done me more good than all the doctors I have had. For the last eight years and more I suffered with female troubles, was very weak, could not do my housework, also had nervous pros tration. Some days I would remain unconscious for a whole day and night. My neighbors thought I could never recover, but, thanks to your medicine, I now feel like a dilferent woman. * I feel very grateful to you and will recommend Lydia E. Pink- ham's Vegetable Compound to alL It has now been four years since I had the last spell of nervous prostration. I only weighed ninety- eight pounds at that time; now I weigh one hundred and twenty-three. “I consider your Vegetable Compound the finest remedy made. Thanking you many times for the benefit I received from your medicine, I remain, i ours truly, Mrs. J. H. Farmer, 2809 Elliott Ave., St. Louis, Mo. Remember Mrs. Pinkham's advice is free and all sick women mre foolish if they do not ask for it. She speaks from the widest experience, and has helped multitudes of women.

Left Two Rabun County Prisoners at Police Headquarter. Atlanta, March 1G.—The police are more than anxious to find E. D. Hen son., lessee of convicts for Decatur county, this state. They want the lessee because he left two convicts at the police barracks nearly a week ago and has failed to return for them. ‘‘1 wish to leave these convicts here,” stated Henson, ‘’and I will go after others which wo have leased. 1 will be back tomorrow.” Henson did not return the next day nor the next, and nearly a week has passed and he is still absent and the convicts are still in a cell at police barracks. If Henson is not soon found the con victs will be returned to Rabun coun ty officials. •oine Word* of Prulnp Kor the Candy of Our Diifldiea. The old style stick candy has red stripes running around it In spiral form. The body of the stick is white. It is slightly flavored with peppermint. It is very sweet and wholesome. Good enough for a king! So cheap that the poorest may have it. Six sticks for 5 cents. Enough to last a family of six two days. Break a stick in two in the middle, eat half of it after dinner or aHer supper if preferred. That is enough candy for one day. It is good for children. Keep it in the house. Away up in the pantry where the chil dren can’t help themselves. After din ner is over take it down, break a stick in two and pass it around. The chil dren will like it Immensely. They will like it all the better for not being able to get too much of it. Never let them have all they want of it. A half stick is enough, although a whole stick might be allowed occasionally. All the fancy slut? put up in boxes that cost a dollar or more cannot equal the old fashioned stick candy. Six sticks of It contain more solid comfort and more nutrition than a wagon load of cars mels and painted bonbons. It Is the candy of our forefathers. Our grand mothers used to eat it. Accept no otk er. Be sure that you get the proper trademark—red stripes running spiral ly round the stick. Beware of substi tutes.—Medical Talk. Inflammatory Rheumatism Cured. William Shaffer, a hrakeman of Dennison, Ohio, was confined to his bed for several weeks with inflamma tory rheumatism. “I used many rem edies,” he says. “Finally I sent to McCraw’s drug store for a bottle of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm, at which time I was unable to use hand or foot, and in one week’s time was able to go to work as happy as a clam.” For sale by Cherokee Drug Co, Gaff ney; L.

Pneumonia is too dangerous a dis ease for anyone to attempt to doctor himself, although he may have the proper remedies at hand. A physi cian should be called. It should be borne in mind, however, that pneumo nia always results from a coll or from an attack of the grip, and that by giving Chamberlain’s Cough Rem edy the threatened attack of pneumo nia may be warded off. This remedy is also used by physicians in the treatment of pneumonia with the best results. Dr. W. J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala., who is also a druggist, says of it: “I have been selling Chamber lain’s Cough Remedy and prescribing it in my practice for the past six years.
