During the early days, or when
the Western Railroad was built
giving this section entrance to the
West, Salisbury was known pretty
generally as the Gate City, but
for some reason her people cared
little for such things and it has
been long years siooe she has worn
the title. The discarded garment
sparkled in the eyes of our neigh
bor, Greensboro, so she drug if
off and is now wearing it with ap
parent' satisfaction, while the
Charlotte Observer stands sponsor.
Ttese things being tiue, and as
there is no spebial significance in
Greensboro's use of the usurped
title, Salisbury nas decided to
adorn herself with a a later and
more becoming crown, a real gem ;
so at a meeting of the executive
committee of the Salisbury Indus
trial Club, Thursday afternoon, it
was deoiced to call Salisbury
'The Gem City," and literature

HOT FLASHES.
Women in middle age often complain of hot flashes. They are at that stage
of life when their delicite organism needs a tonio and helping-hand which only
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription can give them. Many women suffer needlessly
from girlhood to womanhood and from motherhood to old age with backache,
dizziness or headache. A woman often becomes sleepless, nervous, " broken
down," irritable and feels tired from morning to night. When pains and aches
rack the womanly system at frequent intervals, ask your neighbor about
Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Mrs. J. Imhof, of 321 S. Bentalon Street, Baltimore, Md., says: I
wrote you about nine months ago, telling you of my condition. I have a
fine baby girl Bhe weighed nine pounds when born. She is my third child
and the strongest of them all. My suffering was only for two hours. I
took Beveral bottles of ' Favorite Prescription and one of Dr. Pierce's
Smart-Weed. I never had a well day before I took your medicines. I was
surprised how well I felt could eat was always hungry, and never had a
sick stomach. The nurse who was with me said the medicine was wonder
ful because il got along so nicely after having had so much trouble before.
' She intends to recommend it to all her suffering patients. Everybody is
astonished at me because I only weighed 102 pounds before and now I
weigh 135. I have had several ladies come to me and ask about Dr. Pierce's
medicine. I am willing to recommend it to all who suffer and want help.
If any want information I will be glad to give it."
