Of Mrs. Chappell, of Five Tears'
Standing, Relieved by Cardui.
Mt. Airy, N. C.—Mrs. Sarah M. Chap
pell of this town, says: “I suffered for
five years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my punishmenl
was more than any oieVouIa tell.
I tried most every khhd of medicine,
but none did me any good.
I read one day about Cardui, the wo
man’s tonic, and 1 decided to try It 1
had not taken but about six bottles until
1 was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines 1 had
tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why 1
looked so well, and 1 tola them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it”
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache.
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
feeling?
If so, let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial, we feel confident it will help you,
lust as it l as a million other women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won't regret it All druggists.

Smythe; her sisters. Mrs. J. Leroy
Hankinson and Mrs. James Foxliall

Her marriage to Mr. James Camak
was an important social event of June
28, 1911. this marriage uniting two of
Georgia’s oldest and most aristocratic
families. Their home was in Athens,
Ga., where the Camak family have al
ways lived. About a year and a hair
ago Mrs. Camak came to Augusta for
surgical treatment, and for months af
terward lingered between life and
death. Finally she improved suffi
ciently to return to her home, but her
health again failing, she returned to
Augusta and lias been, for some
months now, with her sister and
moth

remained in Augusta to be near her,
and everything that medical science,
skilled nursing and devoted love could
accomplish was done, in vain.
The death of this beautiful, lovable
young woman in the prime of life;
with everything to make her happy;
tlie center of a devoted family circle
is indeed a dispensation of Providence
difficult to understand.
Always from her earliest childhood
she was loved by all who knew her,
or she was not only possessed of
every womanly charm and attraction
calculated to win the admiration of
men and women, and a sparkling
mind, but she was so true and loyal—
so faithful to all duties and to all
friendships; so gentle and lovely to
all—that to know her was indeed to
love her.

GEORGIA HAS YOUNGEST
LITERARY GENIUS OF AGE
Atlanta. Ga., Dec. 31—Georgia lays
claim to the honor of having the
youngest literary genius in the United

Although the young miss is only 12
years old, she has written poems that
have been accepted and published in
standard magazines and newspapers
She is also a very talented music

such masters as Gounod. Schubert

But literature is her forte, and she

THE FIRMNESS ABROAD SEEMED
TO BE TAKEN BY SOME TRAD
ERS AS FORERUNNER OF MORE
ACTIVE. EXPORT DEMAND AS
A RESULT OF DIMINISHING
STOCKS.
(By Associated Press.)
New York. Dec. 31.—Finn Liver
pool cables were followed by an open
ing advance of 6 to 9 points in the
cotton market here today. Additional
lanuary notices amounting to 900
bales were reported in circulation, but
evidently caused little liquidation,
while houses with Liverpool connec
tions were again active buyers of near
months. The firmness abroad seem
ed to be taken by some local traders
as a forerunner of a more active ex
port demand as a result of diminish
ing foreign stocks, and a better feel
ing with reference to the Ancona af
fair was also in evidence around the
ring, as prices worked about 12 to
14 points above last night’s closing
figures. January sold at 12.24. March
at 12.52 and May at 12.75 before the
end of the first hour.
The early advance which carried
prices about $2 per bale above the re
cent low level attracted enough real
izing to cause reactions of 4 or 5
points, but the undertone continued
steady on reports of a better de
mand from exporters in the South.
Trading became comparatively quiet
after the close of Liverpool and fluc
tuations during the middle of the day
were narrow and irregular with
March holding around 12.60 or about
12 points net higher.
The market was very quiet during
the afternoon with March contracts
easing ofT to about 12.45 and May to
12.68, or back to within 7 points of
last night’s closing figures tinder
