( LOCKHART JUNCTION Lockhart Junction, March 20.?The k March winds still blow and it is cold today. The land is in fine condition for plowing and the farmers are taking advantage of it. There hasn't been much guano shipped to this place yet. It seems as if there won't be .much used this year. Bedding sweet potatoes and planting Irish potatoes has taken place in this section. Gardens are late. Very few have been planted. Some prophesy a late springs Late planting will come up and do just as well as planted so soon and the weather keeps cold and it will not grow as well as planting later and the > warm weather sets in and all planting will come up and do better. This writer attended the Interdenominational Sunday school convention held at Union last week, spending a couple of days in the city. The convention was very well attended. Nearly all Sunday school were represented by delegates and good reports made. Program was carried out. All speakers were present. Rev. B. M. DeMent of Greenwood and R. D. Webb of Spartanburg, who is State secretary, both these speakers are expert Sunday school workers and their speeches abounded in many practical suggestions. Prof. Davis Jeffries and Dr. F. M. Ellerbe were also speakers, both making interesting speeches for the occasion. Mr. G. C. Wilburn of Cross Keys and I were assigned to the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Sanders, where we enjoyed our stay during the convention. Miss Sallie Cunningham, who is teaching at the Mabry school, spent the week-end with her mother and sister, Mrs. A. L. Gault. I had the pleasure of meeting Misses Ruth Rast and Annie Kelley at Jonesville, where they were spending the week-end with friends and/relatives. They are teaching at the Cedar Hill school. Prof. R.

Since my last letter another good man has died. This is Mr. James O. Gault, a we'! known farmer and a good citizen. Mr. Gault had been living at Jonesville for a number of years, but was taken sick at his son's, Mr. Oetzel Gault, near Kelton, who was also sick and there is where Mr. Gault died, near his old home where he was born. He was a Methodist. He was once on the board of stewards and I heard a member of that board say he was true to his trust. He always stood ready to collect and help pay out the assessment.

U fpEBDEN'S CASE IS Fk TALK OF NEIGHBORHOOD svilie, Ala., Woman KjT is 27 Pounds on Three ^ Bottls of Tanlac. SUBFERED FOR YEARS Was Twice Examined and Each Time W a Told Operation Would Be Her Only Hope. "I have just finished my third bottle of Tanlac and have trained twentyseven pounds," was the truly remarkable statement made by Mrs. Chas. Pedden, who resides at 550 Mill St., Huntsville, Ala. Mrs. Pedden is one of the best known and highly respected women of that thriving little city, where she has made her home for a number of years. "When I commenced taking Tanlac," she continued, "I only weighed ninety-eight pounds; now I weigh one hundred twenty-five pounds, and never felt better in my life. Tor years I have suffered with a bad form of stomach trouble, constipation and pains in my side and back. At limes the pains took the form of torture and I was twice examined and each time I was told that I had appendicitis and that an operation would be my only hope. I had fallen off until I only weighed ninety-eight pounds and was so weak I could hardly get around. "I had no appetite at all scarcely and what little I did eat would cause gas to form in my stomach, which gave me palpitation of the heart, sick headaches and a dizzy feeling about the head. When these spells came on me 1 would get awfully nervous. I vorried about myseif until I could rest and sleep but little. "I had fallen off until I was almost 'skin and bones,' and my strength and energy were slowly leaving me. I had a dread of the future and could see nothing but the operating table and the knife. I had a perfect horror of an operation, but had made up my mind that it was either life or death and prepared to submit to it. I had made all preparations for the operations and called on my sister to tell her good bye and I did not know whether I would live to see her again or not. My sister begged and pleaded with me not to allow them to cut on me and told me to wait and try a good tonic for a while. The next day as I returned from the ennsnit?ti?" room I thought of what she said, and, as I had heard so much about Tanlac I decided to try it as a last resort, and stopped at Gilbert's Drug Store and got a bottle. Of course' I had lost heart and had no faith in the medicine, but to please my sister I made up my mind to take it, and, oh, 'what a happy day that was for me! "I never returned for the operation but just kept taking the Tanlac. 1 Right from the start I began to feel better. The medicine seemed to take i hold right at once. It had a soothing effect, and in a few days I felt no pain ! at all. I was so happy over the wonderful improvement in my condition that I sent for my neighbors to tell them how much better I felt. I senl and got another bottle of Tanlac ant have just finished taking my thin . bottle and feel like I have been mad< > all over again into a new woman. "As I have said before, I now weigl 125 pounds and my improvement has been so rapid that none of my clothes are big enough for me. I will hav< to make them all over again. I nov have a ravenous appetite and my bus - band says I am simply eating him ou i of house and home. I have even gon< i.~i- ? .... i uau tu niy eonee, winch I was toh < not to touch. Those terrible pains ii my hack and head have all disap peared and I sleep like a child. I an , no longer nervous and when I fret u| in the mornings I feel refreshed cheerful and bright. 1 am now abb to attend to my household duties am 1 feel as if I had started life all ove again. My husband is highly de j lighted and my recovery is the tall i of the neighborhood. I do nothing bu rejoice all day long over the recov cry of mv health and 1 praise Tanla< to everybody. "I feel so grateful for my escapi from the operating table and th< knife that you may publish what have said. You may, if you wish, tel other women suffering as I was, b come to me and I will be glad to tel them all about my ease."
