BrannoD’s Ice Cream I
It costs us more to
give our patrons Bran

would if we made our
own Cream and conse

smaller; but it is a satis

we are giving you the £
b6st product that money |
can buy. Brannon's |
Cream is favorably ’

known all over South jsj

it were possible to get m
better Cream than Bran-

it we would get it. Try 4
Brannon’s Cream; if you -
are not delighted simply £

THREE FACTS
For Sick Women
To Consider
Gaffney Drug
Company.
r<
P
y
i
r
l
ip.
r
First,—That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
of the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing-down pains, nervousness, diz
ziness and sleeplessness.
Second.—The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
It regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inflam
mation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. It has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
Third.—The great volume of unso
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass., many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give ab
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham’s advice.
Mrs.Pinkham’s Standing Invitation
to Women.—Womensuffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink-
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter-
in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been ad-
visingsickwomenfreeofcharge. Outof
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish if she doesnot take
advantage of this generous offer of
assistance.
CHICAGO SKYSCRAPERS
STOPPED 8Y STRIKE
Delay Also In Store For New
Courthouse.
HUNDREDS OF MEN ARE 01
Millions of Dollars’ Worth of Improve
ments Unable to Proceed In the
“Windy City”—Carpenters on Strike
In Brooklyn, N. Y.
Chicago, May 2.—Jusl as the wreck
era started the demolition of old struc
tures on Wednesday to make room
for 000,000 worth of new buildings
iu the loop, a strike was called, which
promises to tie up the building indus
try of Chicago.
One hundred structural iron work
ers will drop their work and their Idle
ness will entail the Idleness of sever
al hundreds other workers.
The strike promises to be of a large
character. Contractors of several
large buildings under way down town
will especially receive a set-back.
Delay is also in store for the new
courthouse where the contractors were
preparing to begin work next week.
The $6,000,000 figure on buildings h
only for improvements, the whole fig
ures netting up about $15,000,000.
The iron workers insist on a wage
of $5 a day for 8 hours’ work. The
contractors’ offer of $4.60 for four
months and $1.80 for the rest of the
coming year, was rejected.
Aside from affecting directly four
iifths of the mchanics engaged in the
steel and iron construction work, the
strike will throw out of employm mt
several thousand other building work
ers, such as carpenters, brick layers,
hod carriers and stone cutters.

Atkinson Lines Now All Under New
Title.
Atlanta, (ja., May 2.—The Atlantic
and Birmingham passed out of exis
tence with the tolling of the midnight
hour on the last day of April.
Tuesday the final legal steps were
taken which with the discontinuance
of the Atlantic and Birmingham made
this road with its prosperous past and
Its brighter future the Atlanta, Bir
mingham and Atlantic. While the
folders and all of the advertising mat
ter of the Atlantic and Birmingham
has for some time carried also the
name of the Atlanta, Birmingham and
Atlantic, official action was taken by
President H. M. Atkinson Tuesday
which means that the road from now
on will be the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic.
While the new system has not yet
reached Atlanta nor Birmingham, the
headquarters and general offices have
been instituted here. Work is being
rapidly pushed and the big system
expects to be running local and regu
lar trains between Birmingham, At-
lama and Brunswick in less than a
year and a half.
