THIS IS YOUR BUSINESS
Following the suggestion of a number of the business men of Pelham, 1
have leased the Royal Cafe stand, and it is now open for business.
Pelham is big enough to support a good, up=to-date cafe. I have a sp!end=
ly equipped stand and I know how to run it.
NOW IT’S UP TO YOU
With your support we can have a nice cafe here the year ’round. Without your support it will be impossible.
Send me all the transient trade that you can.
Drop in here and buy your cigars or cigarettes or cold drinks.
Bring your out-of-town acquaintances in here for lunch,--They will appreciate the attention.
Get your own lunch here when you have to eat at odd hours, or when you haven’t time to go home after it.
Let us know when you will want your lunch and it will be ready for you at that time.
SPECAL DINNERS
Get Sunday dinners here so that you and your family can have a day of rest. Don’t let your wife be fixing
dinner all the day, Notify me in advance, and I will give yo j special dishes.
A LUNCH, OR A BANQUET

without your support, I cannot.

IN ONE AWFUL PAIN
Morse, La.—Mrs. L. P. Lam¬
bert, who has been a popular
school-teacher here for several
years, her recently told a visitor of
Cardui. interesting experiences with
“Just before my . . . came
on,” said Mrs. Lambert, “I would
ache all over. My feet, my toes,
my arms, hands, head—my whole
body seemed to be in one awful
pain. I would grow so nervous
that I could not hold a cup in my
hand. My husband would have
to hold my coffee for me to
drink. Last fall I was in such a
bad condition that I had to spend
about three days in bed every
month. It seemed to me that I
was on my last go-round.”
Then one day, said Mrs. Lam¬
Cardui bert, she happened to read about
and the experiences of
some women who had been
helped by it. “I felt that Cardui

makiug gathering at its permanent !
court house, beginning at 10:30
A. M.
Leading farmers, bankers, busi
ness men and others interested in
the development commercially of
the Georgia sweet potato, have
been invited aud it is expected

ance. A letter has been addressed

continued, “for I had been suf¬
fering with similar troubles to
those mentioned there. I had
heard of Cardui all my life and
I knew many women who said
they had been helped by it. The
very next day I began to take it.
“Very soon after, I began to
notice my improvement. I kept
on till I felt like a different
woman. I gained in weight from
98 pounds to 115 and felt better
than I had in years. I took six
bottles right along and found it
a splendid tonic. My suffering
was partly due to a run-down
condition and the Cardui stimu¬
lated my appetite and helped me
to gain the strength I needed.
. . . I take a bottle every now
and then, even now, just as a
tonic to keep up my strength,
but I am in better health than
I have been in for years.”
All druggists sell Cardui. Try
it. IBS

CAUTION!
It has been brought to
our attention that many
users of electricity are
using pennies in the fuse
box where fuse plugs
should be used.
THIS IS DANGEROUS!
A crossed wire would burn out
every light in your house. A
crossed wire might burn your
building, as has often happened
to others.
Fuses are made for your pro¬
tection. They are cheap =- use
them =- keep them on hand all
the time.
