By September 15 the NnrtVi forniini
Corporation Commission will have filed
with the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion; a brief !in the pending suit by Vir
ginia", fc which it is sought? to ob
tfeni'for. freight shipments from Virginia
cities,to North Carolina shipping points
the same reduction in freight rates that
applied as proportionals in .the . rates
that tfpply from western noints throucrh
-yirgihia cities to these North Carolina
points j This case has been pending
for several "months. The hearing was
held - some months ago and now ths
commission is to file its brief in oppo
sition to the petition.
It is the i contention of the North
Carolina commission that to grant the
demands of the Virginia cities would
rob the North Carolina wholesale
houses of all advantage that was gain
ed in the. original victory of the com
mission in securing the application of
proportionals in making up the ship
ping rates from the Western and! East
ern points that gave North Carolina
dealers relief from what they contended
was unjust discrimination against
them in favor of the Virginia cities.

Various Forms
Of Headache
"It Is necessary in order to treat head
aches properly to understand the causes
which produce the affection" says Dr. J.
W. Ray of Blockton, Ala. Continuing,
he says: "Physicians cannot even begin
the treatment of a disease without know
ing what causes give rise to It, and we
must remember that headache is to be
treated according to the same rule. We
must not only be particular to give a
remedy intended to counteract the cause
which produces the headaches, but we
must also give a remedy to relieve the
pain until the cause of trouble has been
removed. To answer this purpose Anti
kamnla Tablets will be found a most
convenient and satisfactory remedy.
One tablet every one to three hours
gives, comfort and rest In the most
severe cases of headache, neuralgia and
particularly the headaches of women."
"When we haveapatlent subject toregular
attacks of sick headache, we should cau
tion him to keep his bowels regular, for
which nothing Is better than "Actoids,,,
and when he feels the least sign of an on
coming attack, he should take two A-K
Tablets. Such patients should always
be Instructed to carry a f ew Antl-kamnia
Tablets, so as to have them ready for
Instant use. These tablets are prompt
in action, and can be depended on to
produce relief in a very few minutes.
Ask for A-K Tablets.
Antl-kamnia Tablets can be obtained
at all druggists. -
What is back of the roofing you buy is just as important as what is in it. With three
huge mills the General is equipped bigger and better than any roofing manufacturer
on earth. Operating these mills on military principles applying military precision to
every step from the securing of raw materials to the snipping and delivery of the
finished products all this means added value in the goods and in their service.
The Certain-teed label goes on only the best qual- Certain-teed Products is the kind of a guaranty that
ity we can make. It is the best quality that can be
made. The price is reasonable. We guarantee the
one-ply for five years, two-ply for ten years,
and three-ply for fifteen years.
In addition to Certain-teed Roofing the highest
quality possible to make we produce Standard
Quality and Competition Quality at lower prices.
No matter what kind of roofing you want to use, we
will supply it and give you a better product at tha.
The remarkable record of Certain-teed Roonng and
7
inspires confidence. We look ahead with as much
satisfaction as we look back. Every buyer and user
of Certain-teed Products may absolutely know that
there is everything in and everything back of his pur
chase to more than justify his entire confidence.
Ask your dealer for Certain-teed products. He will show you
the Certain-teed label on them: That label is his protection as
well as yours. It means just as much to him as it does to you,
and that is why, from the standpoint of making a satisfied
customer, he is as likely to insist upon you taking Certain-teed
products as you are likely to insist upon getting them.
