■ bottlo if the apteedld nn-l Umehoaored
remedy. Mother's Friend, thet has aided many
a woman through the trying ordeal, saved
her from suffering and pain, kept her in
health of mind nnd body in advance or
baby's comlnir. and had a most wonderful
Influence In developing a healthy, lovely dis
position in the child.
Mother’s Fnend relieves the pain and dis
comfort caused by the strain on the liga
ments, makes pliable those fibers and muscles
which nature is expanding, and soothes the
Inflammation of breast glands and other
soreness. The tendency to nervousness and
to morning sickness or nausea is counter
acted.
By regular uso during the period the mus
cles expand with ease when baby is born,
tension is reduced and the pain and danger
at the crisis is naturally less.
Mother's Friend is an external remedr,
is absolutely safe and wonderfully effective.
It not only allays distress in advance but
assures a speedy recovery for the mother.
This splendid preparation may be had at
every drug store, and is one of the greatest
blessings ever discovered for expectant moth
's™. Write to the Hradfield Regulator Cos..
Lamar Bldg., Atlanta. Ga., for their
"Motherhood Book," so valuable to expectant
mothers, and in the meantime do not fail
to yet a bottle of Mother’s Friend at the
drug store and thus fortify yourself against
and discomfort.

OF
Etheridge, Smith & Cos.
Jackson, Georgia
WISH to announce the arrival and exhi
bition of Fall and Winter 1918 and
1919 Merchandise in all departments of our
store. We have dispensed with formal open
ings—consequently all goods are opened, dis
played and shown from day to day as they ar
rive. Nothing held back.
t
We are very optimistic in regard to the out
look for business and the price of cotton this
season and have accordingly bought goods many
months ago in large assortments to meet every
demand, and we can’t urge you too strongly to
Buy! Buy! Buy! Goods! Goods!
Goods! Buy Goods Early, buy
all you want for a year to come
We insisted cn the public doing this one
year ago and all those who listened to us and
acted on our tip saved money.
I
The same is true now. Buy, don’t wait un
til they go higher. This is not to try and fright
en you* BUT TO WARN YOU. THE SOON
ER THE BETTER. And if you can find any
stock carried over at old prices buy it.
BUY DRESSES AND SUITS.
BUY COTTON GOODS, DRESS
GOODS in both Wool and Silk.
A word to the wise is sufficient.

LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEER WRITES
Over work and worry cause kidney
trouble. When the kidneys are not
working properly, poisons accumulate

for the third time and put on pas-
sage, when nine of the sixteen mem

YOU CUNT FIND ANY
DANDRUFF, AND HAIR
STOPS COMING OUT
Save Your Hair! Make it
Thick, Wavy, Glossy and
Beautiful at Once
Try as you will, after an applica
tion of Danderine, you cannot find a
single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch, but
what will please you most will be af
ter a few weeks’ use, when you see
nw hair, fine and downy at first —
yes—but really new hair—growing
all over the scalp.
A little Danderine immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle,
and scraggy, just moisten a cloth
with Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is imme
diate and amazing—your hair will
be light, fluffy and wavy, and have
an appearance of abundance; an in
comparable lustre, softness and lux
uriance, the beauty and shimmer of
true hair health.
Get a small bottle of Kn owl ton’s
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any—
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment. A small trial
bottle will double the beauty of your
hair. advt.
