BILIOUSNESS
Retired Minister Teßs How He
Keeps in Good Fee. With
lk» Wltllfft of
Black-Draught
West Graham, Va.—The R*T.
Imwis Evans, a well-known retired
minister, now past 80, living here,
has a high opinion of Black-
Draught, which be ears he has
: taken when needed, for 25 years.
‘IFor years I had been suffering
with my liver,’' he says. “Some
times the pain would be very in
tense and my back would hurt all
the time. Black-Draught was the
first thing I found that would give
me any relief.
“My liver has always been slug
gish. Sometimes it gives me a lot
of trouble. I have suffered a lot
with it —pains in my side and back,
I and bad headache, caused from ex
; treme biliousness. .
“After I found Black-Draught, i
would begin to take it as soon as I
felt a spell coming on and it re
lieved the cause at once. I can
recommend it to anybody suffer
ing from liver trouble. A dose or
two now and then keeps me In good
form.”
Made from selected medicinal
roots and herbs, and containing no
dangerous mineral drugs, Black-
Draught is nature’s own remedy
lor a tired, lazy liver. NC-168

MAKE YOUR TAX RETURN.
Tlie taxpayers are most urgently
l requested to make no delay in' seeing
the list takers who have posters in
public places which g ; ve information
ns to the dates and places of listing.
Refer to these posters during week,
thereby saving congestion on Satur
days.
For several years there have been
thousands of dollars worth of prop
erty which has been returned after
the tax books were closed. This
neglect perhaps makes it necessary for
yonr county commissioners to he forc
ed to raise ths rate, of taxation. If
all property were returned at the
proper time, there Is no doubt but
that the tax .rate would be much low
er than it is today.
Hoping that everybody will comply
with the law by returning all property
in May, 1 am,
