Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound saves woman from surgical operations. Mrs. S. A. Williams, of Gardiner, Maine, writes: “ I was a great sufferer from female troubles, and Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound restored me to health in three months, after my physician declared that an operation was abso lutely necessary.” Mrs. Alvina Sperling, of 154 Cley- bourne Ave., Chicago, 111., writes: “I suffered from female troubles, a tumor and much inflammation. Two of the best doctors in Chicago decided that an operation was necessary to save my life. Lydia E. Piukham’s Vegetable Compound entirely cured me without an operation.” FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN.

Digests what you eat AN ELDERLY LADY DEAD* “Ben Hope” Compliments Lodger Cor respondents and Compositors* Filbert, R. F. D. 1, March 2.—There was a party at the home of Mr- W. J. Love on Monday night which was en joyed very much by every one pre sent. Mr. and Mrs. E. N. Caldwell gave a “sociable” on Monday, evening. I had the pleasure recently of meeting Mr. Stewart, of Mississippi, whom C. E. Stewart mentioned in a recent letter. Mr. Stewart left this country thirty-seven years ago and settled in Misslppi where he has since made his home. By the way, Charlie, why don’t you write oftener than you do, giving us the news along Smyrna No. 2. The Ledger has some excellent country correspondents truly. To be only country scribes, I think many of them are above the average in in telligence and ability. All who have the time and are so inclined, should write. One doesn’t know how little he does know until he attempts to write for publication. At least, that was my case until very recently, and, between you and me, i don’t know very much yet. ’Tis about time ‘early garden wor* was beginning.^ Let us hope that we will have an abundance of fruit and berries this year. I am not a “kicker” at everything generally, but however that may be, I am forced to acknowledge that we need more honesty and fair dealing in political and business life than we now have. A race which is ana claims to be superior to another race, should do nothing to engender ill feeling between the two. He who would go to a gathering of any sort and “raise a row,’’ is in need of a taking down. Mr. Jesse N. Hogue has been do ing sftme much needed work on the road near the Buckhorn bridge. This particular place in the road had be come very bad, but it is in fairly good order now. Miss Amelia Stephenson, an elder ly lady who once lived near here, was buried in Beersheba cemetery on Wednesday at 12 o’clock. I under stand that she.had been ill for some time. ’ Winter, cold winter, is departing and spring, balmy spring, is return ing. “Come, gentle spring! ethereal mildness come.” Some of the writers seem to think their readers are hard to please, hut I flatter myself that I manage to get along without losing my scalp very often. By the way, I heard from a reader in Columbia recently, who seems tb enjoy my sketches. We ought to feel right and write as we feel, and lot Is go at that. The Ledger has excellent com positors, judging from the way in which my poor copy is set up. Be lieve me, to have ones copy “mang led up” in the printing, tries ones pa tience to a degree. But The Ledger doesn’t mangle it up. Politicians of the right sort are of much service to their country, but those of the opposite sort are un speakable—sometimes. As I have not much news this time, my letter is composed of more or less uninteresting paragraphs. And I fear that the “Old Man” will blue pencil me, to, hut maybe not. It isn’t always easy for one to gather news items who has to sit in one place and wait for the news to come to him . I, however, flatter myself that I get all that is going in this quiet section. I will ask a riddle: What evidence have we.that Adam used sugar? I should love to hear Mr. Richard son play on the violin, for I love fine music. Mr. Arthur McAfee spent Saturday night at Mr. H. S. Love’s. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. McCarter spent Saturday night at Mr. Robert Fergu son’s, near Filbert. “Q(rey Byes,” you write interest ingly. i Mr. J. L. S., at the time I answered the question I was certain that you propounded it, but it now seems that I was in error. I have lost the paper which contained it, so I do not know exactly whose question it was. I have, however, answered it to the en tire satisfaction of one person—my self. My information was taken from Wentworth’s arithmetic, and I sup pose he knows. Mr. Erskine Adkins spent Friday night at Mr. J. R. Hogue’s. Mr. J. R. Hogue, who was sick for a number of weeks, is now able to plow. Mrs. J. R. Hogue is visiting rel atives in the Beth-Shllop section. Mr. Roy Mefek and Miss Iniss Hogue spent Saturday night at Hick ory Grove. Mr. R. W. Whitesides, of Smyrna, spent Sunday night at MT. W. L. Caldwell’s. I love our little birds as well as any one, but I do not believe that I could ever bring myself to cage one of these innocent creatures and de prive It of its liberty. Some complain that money la scarce becanse there yet remains so much cotton to be sold. But this is an unfair complaint While it is true to a certain extent, that some money is kept out of circulation in this way, it lg also true that a large portion of the money supply is con centrated in Wall street, New York. And they seem determined to keep it there, too. Ben Hope. Rational Pneumonia Treatment The most successful physicians are now treating pneumonia by the ap plication of counter-irritants. They are learning to resist the temptation to doctor the cougb, which, after all, is only nature’s effort to relieve her self, and are endeavoring to reach the seat of the congestion without the use of internal remedies. Some an? using preparations about as pleasant to the patient as an ap plication of mud or putty, but the wisest use a pleasant liquid counter- irritant. The Ideal remedy Is Noah’s Lini ment. Its carefully compounded in gredients possess wonderful powers of penetration and immediately re duce the Inflammation and congestion. Noah’s Liniment is absolutely harmless, and can be used freely without consultation with a physi cian. Apply the liniment freely over the point of pain or congestion. Satu rate a hot flannel and keep it ap plied to that portion of the body. The effect will be almost Immediate, and la many cases the threatened pneu monia will he dispelled before a phy sician can he secured. Best for rheumatism, sclatla, lame back, stiff Joints and muscles, sore throat, colds, strains, sprains, ents, bruises, colic, cramps, etc. For in ternal and external aches and pains Noah’s Liniment has no equal.

Instead of being rich, strong and healthy, the circulation has become infected with germs of disease which destroy the rich, red corpuscles that furnish nourishment and strength to the body, and reduced this vital fluid to such a weak watery condition that it is no longer able to keep the system in health or ward off the countless diseases and disorders that assail it. The loss of these red corpuscles takes the color and glow of health from the cheek and we see pale, sallow faces and washed out, chalky complexions among the first symptoms of Malaria. But Malaria is a £t»eral systemic disease and as the blood becomes more heavily loaded with its germs we have more serious and complicated symptoms; the impure blood having its effect on ail parts of the body. The appetite fails, digestion is weakened, chills and slight fever are frequent, and the sufferer loses energy and ambition because of a constant ti red-out and ‘ ‘ no account ’ ’ feeling. The lack of necessary nour- ishment and healthful qualities in the blood causes boils and abscesses, skin affections, and in some cases sores and ulcers to break out, and sometimes the patient is prostrated with a spell of malarial fever which may leave his health permanently impaired. To cure Malaria both a blood purifier and tonic are necessary, in order to remove the cause and at the same time build up the sj’stera from' its weakened and run-down condition. S. S. S. is the medicine best fitted for this work. It is the most perfect of all blood purifiers, and the purely vegetable ingredients of which it is composed make it the During 1900 I was running a farm on the Mississippi river and became so impreg nated with Malaria that for a year I was almost a physical wreck. I tried a number of medicines recommended as blood purifi ers, chill cures, and Malaria eradicators, but nothing did me any good until I began to use S. S. S. The result was that after taking it for awhile I was as well and strong as I ever was. I have never had a chill since nor the slightest symptom of Malaria. I hope others will be benefited by my experience, and with that end in view I give this testimonial, knowing that S. S. S. is the best remedy for Malaria. Amory, Miss. S. R. COWLEY. greatest and safest of all tonics. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation and removes every trace of impurity or poison, and at the same time'gives to the blood the health-sustaining qual ities it needs. It cures Malaria thoroughly and permanently because it removes the germs and poisons which produce the disease, and while doing this tones up and strengthens every part of. the system. When S. S. S. has cleansed the blood the symptoms pass away, the healthy color returns to the complexion, the old tired, depressed feeling is gone, and the entire health is renewed.
