A FAMILY MEDICINE In Her Mother's Home, Says This Georgia Lady, Regarding Black Draught. Relief From Head ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc. Ringgold, Ga. Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: "I am a user of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact, It was one of our family medicines. Also in my mother's home, when I was a child. "When any of us child ren complained of headache, usually caused hy constipation, she gave us a dose of Black-Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty reg ular until the liver acted well, and we would soon be up and around again. We would not be without it, for it certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just a dose of Black Draught when not bo well saves a lot of days In bed." Thedford's Black-Draught has been in use for many years in the treat ment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which It now enjoys Is proof of its merit. If your liver is not doing its duty, you will suffer from such disagree able symptoms as headache, bilious ness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result. Thedford's Black-Draught has been found a valuable remedy for these troubles. It is purely vegetable, and acts in a prompt and natural way, Tegulating the liver to its proper functions and cleansing the bowels of Impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed ford's, the original and genuine. E 7S COMMISSIONER'S SALE OF LAND. Under and by virtue 01 a juugmem ot the Superior Court of Robeson county in the spe cial proceeding entitled, "E.

The only interest they have in the matter is that which any true woman feels in helping to relieve the sufferings of other women. You can believe them. Mrs. J. F. Lee, Milstead, Ga., had female complaint for years. Three bot tles of Stella-Vitab cured her, she said, and added,"I am certainly thank ful for this great female tonic." Mrs. Paralee Frazier, Longview, Tex;, ex pressed appreciation of Stklla-Vitae in these words: 41 1 cannot say too much for this wonderful medicine. I had taken other female medicines for two years with no good results. I am truly crrateful for the eood Stella-Vitab has done me." Mrs. Sandy Withers, of Greensboro. Ala., was a terrible suf ferer from female trouble and only a woman knows what that means! Her condition got so bad her pains threw her into snells like fits. Her husband feared she would lose her mind. The Greensboro doctors pronounced her in curable. Then somebody suggested that she take Stella-Vitab. She did so. The first dose lightened her spells. Stella-Vitab is a perfectly harm less compound and it not only alleviates a woman's pain, but builds op her I UL. -4. 1 , Z atisJn No. 40, at page 279, (default having been made I ueaun; It Humiliates uer aupewre, mua in the payment of the indebtedness secured j digestion, quiets her nerves and clears thereby), I, the undersigned Trustee, will on !
