STOMACH TROUBLE Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Ky., says: “For quite a long while I suffered with stomacn trouble. I would have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most disagreeable taste in my mouth. If I ate anything with butter, oil or grease, I would spit it up. I began to have regular sick headache. I had used pills and tablets, but after a course of these, I would be constipated. It just seemed to tear my stomach all up. I found they were no good at all for my trouble. I heard THEDFORD’S recommended very highly, so began to use it. It cured me. I keep it in the house all the time. It is the best liver medicine made. Ido not have sick headache or stomach trouble any more.” Black-Draught acts on the jaded liver and helps it to do its important work of throwing out waste materials and poisons from the sys-, tern. This medicine should be in every household for use in time of need. Get a package today. If you feel sluggish, take a dose tonight. You will feel fresh to morrow. Price 25c a package. All druggists. ONE CENT A DOSE u Elfin Miners. All over Europe a popular belief prevails that elfin miners are con stantly laboring In the bowels of tlie mountains, where they have accumu lated enormous stores of precious met* als. Jn Wales they are called “knock ers.” They make strange noises, and the tapping of their picks muy often be heard in ors bodies not yet reached by the human workmen. As to Our Looks. “Improved photography,” remarked the man on the car, “has given us the mistaken notion that we are bet ter looking than our ancestors.” Why Meat Prices Vary in Different Stores Prime .teem $19.9<H520.35 Good to choice steers 17.00^19.86 Common to medium 5teer5........ 10.76(6,16.75 Yearlings, fair to fancy 16.00&1990 Fat cows and heifers 8.^5^15.35 Canning cows and heifers 7.26(0 8.25 Bulls, plain to best ••••••• 6.50(^-12.50 Poor to fancy calves 6.76^-16.75 Western range steers 10.00^18.60 These newspaper quotations represent live cattle prices in Chicago on December 30th, 1918. The list shows price ranges on nine general classified groups with a spread of $13.85 per cwt. —the lowest at $6.50 and the highest at $20.35. Why this variation in price? Because the meat from differ ent animals varies greatly in quality and weight. Although the quotations shown are in nine divisions, Swift & Company grades cattle into 34 general classes, and each class into a variety of weights and qualities. Asa result of these differences in cattle prices, (due to differences in weights and meat qualities), there is a range of 15 cents in Swift &. Com pany’s selling prices of beef car- . casses. These facts explain: 1— Why retail prices vary in different stores. 2 Why it would be difficult to regulate prices of cattle or beef. 3 it requires experts to judge cattle and to sell meat, so as to yield the profit of only a fraction of a cent a pound—a profit too small to affect prices. Swift & Company,U.S. A. To Clean Lamp Glasses. When cleaning lamp glasses hold them over the steam from a teakettle, then rub them with a dry newspaper folded up into a wad, and, lastly, with a soft cloth, and they will be all that can be desired. Fitting Expiring Sentiments. To Vespasian is attributed as an ex piring sentiment, “An emperor should die standing!” which seems tc have appealed to two sixteenth-century Eng lish bishops—Woolton, whose Inst ut terance is recorded as, “A bishop ought to die on his legs,” and Sewell, who declared, “A bishop should die preaching.” /MSstfgVi r 1 vPw#// MANY WOMEN KILLED BY FILM EXPLOSION Fire Which Threatened To Become Serious Followed The Crash Pittsburg.—Between fifteen and twenty persons, mostly women and girls, were killed and more than a score others injured here, when a ter rific explosion wrecked a Him exr change building at 804 Penn avenue, in the downtown section of the city. Eight bodies were recovered from the ruins, and firemen working in the in terior of the structure, report that many other bodies are buried under wreckage. All the fire apparatus was summoned and ambulances from every hospital. A serious fire threatened the down town section and spread through the block to Liberty avenue. The building in which the explo sion occurred is a six-story structure, and many of those Injured received their hurts by jumping from the up per floors. Persons in the vicinity when the explosion shook the district say that prior to the upheaval a dense cloud of black smoke poured from the lower floor. Then came tlie terrific report, shattering windows and cast ing many persons on the interior of the structure to the street. More States Vote For Dry Measure Chicago.—Three more states rati fied the proposed prohibition amend ment, making a total of nineteen states that have indorsed the proposal of congress. While the proposed ad dition to tlie basic law was ratified by the legislatures of Ohio, Colorado and Oklahoma, representatives of the dis tillery companies met in Chicago and decided to oppose both the amendment and the war prohibition law by all legal means. Banker Robert J. Lowry Is Dead Atlanta.—Col. Robert J. Lowry, pres ident of the Lowry National Bank, prominent as banker and business man, pioneer of Atlanta and well-be loved citizen, died here. Robert J. Lowry was born in Greeneville, Tenn., on March 4, 1840. He was the son of William M. and Julia Eason Lowry. He came lo Atlanta in his boyhood days and began with his father in the banking business in 1865. He was married to Miss Emma Markham, the oniy daughter of the lata William Markham, a distinguished pioneer. Importance of in* F*4loW v ’r.

About Gone Many thousands of women suffering from ■womanly trouble, have been benefit'd by the use of Cardui, the woman’s tonic, aocording to letters we receive, similar to this one from Mrs. Z. V. Spell, of Hayne, N. C. “I could not stand on my feet, and just suffered terribly,” she says. “As my suf fering was so great, and he had tried other reme dies, Dr. had us get Cardui. . . I began improving, and it cured me. I know, and my doctor knows, what Car dui did for me, for my nerves and health ’ were about gone.” TAKE CARDIII The Woman’s Tome She writes furttnefr **l am in splendid health ... can do my work. 1 feel 1 owe it to Cardui, for I was In dreadful condition.” If you are nervous, run down and weak, or suffer from headache, backache, etc., every month, try Cardui. Thousands of women praise this medi cine for the good it has done them, and many physicians who have used Cardui successfully with their women patients, for years, endorse this medi cine. Think what it means to be in splendid health, like Mrs. Spell. Ciive Cardui a trial. All Druggists J n Clasified Ads. FOUND. One automobile casing.

SUMMEROUR. TORNADO INSURANCE Your neighbor’s home burned only a few days or months ago, and a cyclone is likely to strike this section at any time, so INSURE with US anl lie down at night with a clear conscience and a peaceful mind. Don’t DELAY. It may mean the loss of your home. Any man can build a home once. A WISE man insures his property in a reliable insurance company so that when calamity comes he can build again. He owes the protection that it gives, to ihs peace of mind and the care of his loved ones. Kilgore, Radford & Smith As Balzac Depicted Man. Balzac’s object in writing the nuru erous volumes that succeeded each other with an astounding regularity was to depict man as lie presented hmiself to his view, and, in fact, in his works he brings to life again the history of the generation to which he belongs, describing his contemporaries, In particular the humble bourgeois of the middle class, with a most striking exactness. No Detriment. Yeast —I see that blond typewriter of yours chews gum. Crimsonbeak —Yes, I’ve noticed that. “And don’t you think It Interferes with her work?’’ “By no means. I had one before her who didn't chew gum, and her spelling was quite as bad.” Merits of Wooden Bam I Obvious. A barrel cnn be relied. This is its greatest merit, says Popular Science Monthly. Every other shape* of "on talner which weighs over n hundred pounds when filled, must be lifted bod ily and carried on a hand truck or by hoisting machinery. One man can un load a carload of sugar—2oo barrels of It —in less than an hour. Don’t yuU wish it were at your door? No other container can be handled at this rate, even by two men working at top speed. Rare Quality. To be abie to summon courage enough to one’s own wrong-doing is to be possessed of qual ities that raise humanity to the plane of the angels, observes a writer. The man who has this coarng* in the high est degree “cannet la the world be singly counterpoised.’’
