After The Grippe
f‘I am much pleased, to be able to write and thank
you for what Cardui has done for me,” writes Mrs. Sarah
J. Gilliland, of Siler City, N. G . u ,
"Last February, 1 had the Grippe, which left me in
bad shape. Before that, I had been bothered with female
trouble, for ten years, and nothing seemed to cure it
“At last, I began to take Cardui. I have taken only
three bottles, but it has done me more good than all the
doctors or than any other medicine 1 ever took.
M? CARDUI
J<2
The Woman’s Tonic"
For the after-effects of any serious illness, like the
Grip, Cardui is the best tonic you can use.
It builds strength, steadies the nerves, improves the
appetite, regulates irregularities and helps bring back the
natural glow of health. ,
Cardui is your best friend, if you only knew it.
Think of the thousands of ladies whom Cardui has
helpedl What could possibly prevent it from helping you?
Remember you cannot get the benefit of the Cardui
ingredients in any other medicine, for they are not for sale
in any drug store except in the Cardui bottle. Try Cardui.

UMPIRE LOAN & TRUST CO.
The county commissioners of Sum
ter, through the personal direction of
Supt Robert Christian, of tiro county
roads department, are demonstrating
what can be done In restoring waste
and poor land through careful fertil
ization, good, deep plowing and judi
cious planting of crops.
Sumter county owns a farm of two
hundred acres, two miles west of
Americus, and will make of It a ver
itable garden paradise.
For half a century It has been
known as the county pauper farm, but
only two or three of the county’s poor
are kept there now. This year the
county commissioners decided to op
erate the farm for tiro benefit of the
county.
First of all, one of Sumter’s “good
roads’’ leads through the farm, thus
rendering It accessible.
Hundreds of tons of stable fertil
izer has been spread upon the area
cultivated, and the magnificent crops
show for it. Old fields have been
cleared, put in culti’ ,'tlon, and are
verdant with growing crops.
Vast stretches of fine oats promise
to feed the ninety mules owned by
the county, while the green corn fields
greet the eye a3 well.
Supt. Christian has a vast truck farm
also, in which he will raise supplies
of potatoes, cabbage, collards, melons,
etc., for tiro horde of eighty convicts
engaged in road building here. This
will greatly decrease the county’s ex
pense, and besides provide better food
for the convicts.
In a pasture nearby Supt. Christian
has a hundred fine stock, hogs and
porkers, which will supply the gang
In time with a goodly portion of their
meat. The truck patches are work
ed by convicts unfit for road duty
thus costing the county absolutely
no’hlng for labor.
The commissioners are gratified at
th j experiment of operating the coun
ty’s farm. A few years ago this land
would not have sold for $5 per acre
Fifty dollars per acre would scarcely
hnv It now.
The Secret of Long Life.
A French scientist has discovered
one secret of long life. His method
deals with the blood. But long ago
millions of Americans had proved
Eectrlc Bitters prolong life and makes
it worth living. It purifies, enriches
and vitalizes the blood, rebuilds wast
ed nerve cells, Imparts life and tone
to the entire system. Its a godsend to
weak, sick and debilitated people.
“Kidney trouble had blighted my life
for months,’’ writes W. M. Sherman,
ot Cushing, Me., “but Electric Bitters
cured me entirely.” Only 50c at Eld-
ridge Drug Co.

veteran, of Kemp, Tex., that a plot ex
isted between a desperate lung trou
ble and the grave to cause his death.

stuck to me, In spite of all remedies,

od my health completely. I now

STEPS TOWARD OPENING

ties may be brought Into touch with
the great opening here the following
advertisement has been Inserted In

est agricultural section of tho state

tion, and furnishes market for all the

five millions in crops last year.

onable to expect a number of inqui
ries. Out of them It is quite proba
ble that some one will be found with
