A WELL-KNOWN INSTITUTION. Probably no institution in America is more widely known than Doctor Pierce's Invalids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y. Although established many years ago It is today a modern sanitarium, having all the latest facilities for the correct diagnosis of diseases and their successful treatment through medicine or surgery. It was Dr. Pierce, its founder, who over 50 years ago gave to the world that wonderful stomach tonic and blood purifier, "Golden Medical Discovery," and that famous non alcoholic medicine for women, "Fa vorite Prescription." In his early professional career, Dr. Pierce realized that every family, but especially those who live remote from a physician, should have at hand an Instructive book that would teach them something about First Aid, Physi ology, Anatomy, Hygiene; how to rec ognize different diseases, how to care for the sick, what to do in case of ac cident or sudden sickness, etc., so he published that great book, the "Medical Adviser," an up-to-date edition of which can be procured by sending 50 cents to Doctor Pierce's Invalids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y. Later, Dr. Pierce added another link to his chain of good works by estab lishing a bureau of correspondence to which any one can write for medical advice, without any expense whatever, and if necessary, medicines especially prepared in Doctor Pierce's Laboratory will be sent by parcel post or express for use at home, at a reasonable cost. Thus those who have symptoms of dis ease need not suffer mental agony fear ing that they have some serious ail ment, but can have a diagnosis made fcee by a physician of high profes sional standing. Write to Dr. Pierce relating your symptoms if you need medical advice for any chronic disease. All letters regarded as confidential.

Stanton, and L. S. Had ley, all of Wilson, Simmons Defends War Taxes Washington, (Special)— Senator Simmons defended the War Revenue legislation against an attack launched in a speech Senator Gronna, of North Dakota, made. The North 'Carolina Senator charged that "low rat? o *." of taxation on incomes and excess pro fits provided in the revenue bills which were piloted through the Sen ate by the North Carolina Senator, have operated to create the fortunes of the great number of "mushroom" millionaires now in the country which otherwise could not have been. Inspection of Dairy Herd On March 4th, the State College dairy herd consisting of 67 pure bred cattle were tested for tuberculosis by Dr. W. C. Dendinger of the United States Department of Agriculture and found absolutely free from the di sease. Dr. Dendinger expressed much gratification over the results. This is the first time the herd has been tested by United States govern ment officials. Heretofore the work has been carried on by the department of animal husbandry under the direc tion of the college veterinarians. The Potential Sugar Maple. Washington (Special).—The sugar shortage and the approach of "'sugar weather" lead Department of Agricul ture experts to make the statement That many thousands of American farmers throughout a region compris ing more than a score of states, in the eastern and northeastern part of the United States, are overlooking op portunities to secure maple sugar and sirup for home use, as well as for sale, at very little cost. Discovery was made by government investigators of many groves of sugar maples in North Carolina, one of which is probably larger than any now to be found in New England. The owners, being unaware of the value of the trees from the maple-sugar standpoint, had begun cutting them for lumber at an average return of less than SI.OO a tree. Last season, upon suggestion of government ex perts, these groves were tapped and yielded sirup that sold for $4.00 a gallon. Revelation or the potential value of the groves induced the own ers to plan more extensive operations for this spring. .

Woodall, Jr. Raleigh; Bun Hearn, Chapel Hill; Lee Meadows, Oxford; Frank Davis, Wil son's Mill; Buck Burrus, Beaufort; George Whitted, Durham; Tim Mur cheson, Liberty; Jack Courtney, Ashe ville.

Young, celebrating his 20 years as commissioner, entertained in the de partmental offices several hfindred visitors representing all sections of the state. The commissioner, who will not run in the 1920 primary, made no an nouncement of his retirement and it is not improbable that he will serve out his official days. In his incumbency the office has be come a great revenue maker and this year raised $650,000. It is the clear ing house for fire prevention and has made that one of its biggest features. It has prosecuted 2.000 violations and convicted 300 of burning property. College Cadets Commended The review and inspection of th« State College cadets recently by an officer of the Southeastern Depart ment was highly satisfactory. Com mendatory report of the officer has been received by Dr. W. C. Riddick from Major General Henry G. Sharpe. In a letter to President Riddick General Sharpe says: "The authorities of the educational institutions in this country have a grave responsibility, in that they are responsible for the training of our young men to be good Americans.

The office of the Alumni Secretary of the North Carolina State College has receptnly completed an investi gation of the employment of State College students during the present college year. Some interesting figures have been brought to light. It was found that 175 men, or about 17 per cent of the total enrollment, had earned approximately since school opened in the fall. In the irja* jority of cases, these men have been enabled to continue their studies only through the ability to earn money. THE OOURTER. FOREST CITY. N. C. FOUND GARDUI GREAT BENEFIT South Carolina Lady Suffered Un til She Couldn't Stay Up or Go Anywhere.—Tells How Cardui Helped Her Get Well. Batesburg, S. C—ln telling how she found relief from troubles that had caused her much suffering, Mrs. E. E. Oswalt, of this place, says: "Each month I would begin to suffer with my back and head. My limbs would ache and I would chill. I wouldn't be able to stay up, no matter what I wanted to do, or where I wanted to go. My people tried giving me different medi cines and teas and tonics, yet I didn't get any better. "Some one told me of Cardui, and I began to take it. I noticed it helped me. I kept it up. After a few months I didn't have any trouble. For about six months I used it, before . . . "I found I was all right, and from that day to {his have never had any trouble at this time. I have taken it since, a bottle or two in the winter, especially when I have been exposed, and would take a cold, for I consider it the best thing a woman can take to tone up the system, keep off nervous ness, and increase the appetite. I certainly know it has been of great benefit to me." If you are weak, nervous, or suffer from womanly troubles such as Mrs. Oswalt mentions, take Cardui, the Woman's Tonic. All good druggists sell Cardui. —Adv. Curiosity. Bay (to lutcher who had put on a bone to make up weight)— Mother said the pork she had this morning was all bone.

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND SWAMP-ROOT For many years druggists have watched with much interest the remarkable record maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medi cine. It is a physician's prescription. Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi cine. It helps the kidneys, liver and blad der do the work nature intended they should do. Swamp-Root has stood the test of years. It is sold by all druggists on its merit and it should help you. No other kidney medicine has so many friends. Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start treatment at once. gt However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.—-Adv.

RECIPE FOR GRAY HAIR. To half pint of water add 1 oz. Bay Rum, a small box of Barbo Compound, and oz. of glycerine. Apply to the hair twice a week until it becomes the desired shade. Any druggist can put this up or you can mix it at home at very little cost. It will gradually darken streaked, faded gray hair, and will make harsh hair soft and glossy. It will not co'or the scalp, is not sticky or greasy, and does not rub off. —Adv. Nail This, Quickl "Why has he named nis motor VVil ton ?" "Because it's his car-pet." I Insist on having Dr. Peery's "Dead Shot" for Worms or Tapeworm and the druggist will get it for you. It is the only Vermifuge which operates after a single dose.—Adv. Pessimists live long—like Voltaire and Schopenhauer—in spite of their pessimism about all things. • Reliable Information All American women know of the great success of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound inrestor ing to health women who suffered from ailments pe culiar to their sex, yet there are some who are skeptical and do not realize that all that is claimed for it is absolutely true —if they did, our laboratory would not be half large enough to supply the demand, though today it is the largest in the country used for the manufacture of one particular medicine.
