Tumors Conquered
Withoul Operations
Unqualified Success of Lydia EL Pinftham’s
Vegetable Compound in Cases of Mrs. Fox
and Miss Adams.
One of the greatest triumphs of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is
the conquering of woman’s dread
enemy, Tumor.
So-called “ wandering pains” may
come from its early stages, or the pres
ence of danger may be made manifest
by excessive menstruation accompanied
by unusual pain extending from the
ovaries down the groin and thighs.
If you have mysterious pains, if there
are indications of inflammation ulcera
tion or displacement, don’t w r ait for
time to confirm your fears and go
through the horrors of a hospital opera-
tidn; secure Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound right away and begin
its use and write Mrs. Pinkham of
Lynn. Mass., for advice.
Read these strong letters from grate
ful women who have been cured:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— (First letter.)
* In looking over your book I eee that your
medicine cures Tumor of the Uterus. I have
been to a doctor and ho tells me I have a tu
mor. I will be more than grateful if you
can help me, as I do so dread an operation.”
—Fannie D. Fox, 7 Chestnut St.,Bradford,Pa.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— (Second Letter.)
“ I take the lilierty to congratulate you on
the success I have had with your wonderful
medicine.
“ Eighteen months ago my monthlies
stopped. Shortly after I felt so badlyl sub
mitted to a thorough examination by a phy
sician, and was told that 1 had a tumor on
the uterus and would have to undergo an
operation.
“ I soon after read one of your advertise
ments and decided to give Lydia E. Pink
ham’ s Vegetable Compound a trial. After
tfcidor '
entirely gone. I have again been exainii^^.,>
by the physician and he says I have no signs
of a tumor now. It has also brought my
monthlies around once more; and I am
entirely well. I shall never be without a bot
tle of Lydia Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
in the house.”—Fannie D. Fox, Bradfom, Pa.
Another Cane of Tumor Cured
by Ly dia R. Pinkham's Vegeta
ble Compound.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
“ About three years ago I had intense pain
in my stomach, with cramps and raging
headaches. The doctor prescribed for me,
but finding that I did not get any letter he
examined me and. to my surprise, declared
I had a tumor in the uterus.
“I felt sure that it meant my death warrant,
and was very disheartened. I spent hundreds
of dollars in doctoring, but the tumor kept
growing, till the doctor said that nothing but
an operation would save me. Fortunately I
corresponded with my aunt in the New Eng-
und States, who advised me to try Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound before sub
mitting to an operation, and I at once started
taking a regular treatment, finding to my
great relief that my general health began to
improve, and after three months I noticed
that the tumor had reduced in size. I kept
on taking the Compound, and in ten months
it ha«l entirely disappeared without an oper
ation. and using no medicine but Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and words
fail to express now grateful I am for the good
it has done me.”—Miss Luella Adams, Colon-
I nade Hotel, Seattle, VV ash.
Such unquestionable testimony
proves the value of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, and should give
confidence and hope to every sick
woman. _

CROP BULLETIN.
Report of Condition of Crop* Through
out the State.
Columbia, Sept. 12.—The week
ending Monday, September 11th, was
from two to three degrees cooler than
normal, with weekly extremes of a
maximum of 94 degrees at Blackville
on the 7th, and a minimum of 54 do
grees at Greenville on the 5th.
The weather was generally clear
and the air dry, with somewhat
more than the usual amount of bright
sunshine.
There were showers, some quite
copious. In the eastern and southern
counties, but over the greater portion
of the State there was no rain, or
inappreciable amounts .
The absence of rain was favorable
for general farm work, but was un
favorable on growing crops which de
teriorated sligh’ly over all but the
coast counties, where there was im
provement. Late corn needs more
moisture in the central counties.
Thre was no marked change in the
condition of cotton. In some locali
ties there was a slight improvemen*
and the plants continue to fruit, while
in others there was a steady deterior
ation due to rust and the premature
opening of small bolls. The fruit
ing season is now over as what fruit
age is taken on after this time is very
unlikely to mature. On sandy soils
the plants are shedding leaves and
have stopped growing, while on clay
soils, and over the western counties
generally, the plants continue green
except where attacked by rust. The
mature bolls are opening rapidly and
in many places half, or more, of the
crop has been picked. Sea-island cot
ton has improved and as picking
progresses, the yields are better than
anticipated, while the lint is of ex
cellent quality. Some open cotton
was injured by heavy rain in a few
central counties, but generally the
lint has been saved in fine condition.
All but very late corn has been
stripped of fodder. Haying made
good progress. Truck is coming up
well in the southern district and
poorly in the northern ones. The
general condition of minor crops is
less promising though still fairly good.

As the Result of a Revival at King' 8
Creek.

Bailey filled his regular appointment
at Antioch last Saturday and Sun
day, preaching an excellent sermon
each time. He also baptized Sunday
evening at 2 o'clock. He had twenty^
seven to baptize. A large crowd r&s

as large as it would have (teen if the

there that it would be at 19 o’clock
Sunday morning and at preaching
Saturday it was again announced to
be at 3 or 4 o’clock and at the close
of preaching it was again changed to
about 2 o’clock. These changes were
made by the preacher on account of
the water being cold, I think.

the church would elect a pastor for
next year and requested that all mem

young people of Antioch section and
surrounding sections are going on a
picnic, clown to Piedmont Springs. A
large crowd Is expected to go and it is

fine time, for they are sure of that, as
they have selected a fine place for the
occasion. All that desire to go will
be welcomed.
Mrs. Dr. Geo. Oats, of Grover, N. C.,
went to Piedmont Springs yesterday
to stay a while for her health and
pleasure. We wish her much success
in her undertaking.
Last Monday a number of Grover
section went to Rutherford to attend

dust, which made travel more pleas
