Miss Watkins To be Missionary Endorsed by the Musion Board atKashmg, China—Member oj the Second Prebbyterian Church, this City, to be Re sponsible for Eer Support. The meeting of the Woman’s For eign Missionary Society of the Second Presbyterian church yesterday after noon was particularly interesting. The society had the pleasure and profit of having the pastor of the church, Dr. McGeachy, present. Dr. McGeachy made a short talk to the society en couraging It along the lines of endeav or toward which its energies are be ing bent. Another thing xo make the meeting memorable was announcement of the fact that Miss Mildred Wat kins, who has been in Kashing, China, for about a year studying to become a missionary, has been endorsed by the board of missions and will be come a regular missionary, and that a gentleman member of the Second church will be responsible for her sup port. Mis9 Watkins went to China about a year ago with the object in view of beconii'ig a missioii';ry. She took the position of governess in the family of Rev. Mr. Hunter, teaching his chil dren for eight hoars a day, and de voting the rest of her time to studying the language. The irJssion siation at ivashlng has found that she mastered the language v.'ell and has endor.’od her as a misionary. She wl’l maKe formal application for appointment to the Board of Foreign Mi.'&ions at Nashville, Tenn. Miss Watkins was for yeai’s teacher of Bible at the Presbyt,;riau College, in this city. She :? acknowledged to be one of the ablest in&h’uofors in Bible ever I:nown in this communit:'. She >s a remarkable Avoman.intellectually and spiritnally. The desire of her heait had been to l)e"a tni.-'.ionary. Affer tVie death of her moliier she left for the mission field. Thought She’d Never Get Up But Lady in Chriesman, Who Went to Bed With This Idea, Has Changed Her Mind Chriesman, Tex.—In a letter from this place, Lillie Gibson says: “About three years ago, I was just entering womanhood and was sick in bed for nearly nhie months. I took medicines from four doctors, but it didn’t help me. Sometimes I would ache all over, and I would have such a headache, I had to go to bed. I w'as in a bad fix. and that is all there is to it. I thought I would try Cardui. Now I am cured of all my troubles, and I shall praise Cardui as long as I live. My sister said I never would get v;ell, but now' I am perfect ly well, and I am thankful for what the medicine did for me.” Cardui is made from strictly vege table ingredients. It acts gently on the womanly organs, stimulating them to do their proper work, relieving pain and restoring health. Are you weak, tired, worn-^ut? Do you suffer from any of the pains pecu liar to weak women? Cai'dui has a record of more than fifty years in re lieving £;uch iroubles. Will you try It? X.

The purpose is to transact all business between the interstate offices hereafter by wire in stead of by letter. This method will be given a thorough trial and it is believed it will be a decided improve ment over the letter writing method for several reasons, among them be ing the fact that intercourse can be carried on more expeditiously, with less chance of having a great mass of accumulated correspondence con gest the business. The Virginla-Carolina Chemical Company has offices in Virginia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Geor gia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louis iana. The Charlotte plant is one of the most Important Jin this section of the country and the experiment will no doubt be watched here with great in terest by othed firms.

"The N'Iqger.” The scenes of “The Nigger,” Edward Sheldon’s race problem play, which will be presented at the Academy of Music Saturday matinee and night are typically southern in motif. And yet the drama is said to be neither con ventional nor sectional. The story is described as intensely human, with a bYoad application that appeals to all who enjoy intensity and realism on the stage. 'The underlying plot has to do with a young, ambitious and aris tocratic southern governor, who, in the midst of his political triumph, dis covers that he has black blood in his veins. In the south that means so cial ostracism, and the effect of such a discovery on a man w’ho has always lived as a white man. and occupied high station in life as a white man ran readily be imagined. ‘The Nig ger” is said to make an irresistible ap peal to the emotions. It Is the most discussed play of the year, a.nd was originally produced at the famous New Theatre in New York.
