Kincer, of R. F. D. 1, Cripple Creek, Va. "I tried different medicines and did not get relief. The head aches became very frequent, heard of Bedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT and took it for a headache, and the relief was very quick, and it was so long before I had another headache. Now 1 just keep the Black-Draught, and don't let myself get in that condition." Thedford'g Black - Draught (purely vegetable) has been found to relieve constipation, and by stimulating the action of the liver, when it is torpid, helps to drive many poisons out of your system. Biliousness, indigestion, headache, ana similar troubles are often relieved in this way. It Is the natural way. Be natural! Try Black-Draught Sold everywhere.

This year winter buying lor immediate delivery has been mora active than ever before and in addition 200.000 orders hava already been booked through the Ford Weekly Purchase Plan lor spring delivery.

Swink, on West Broad street, High Point, was burned last Friday morning at an early hour. L. F. Honeycutt, of the North side Fire Co., was overcome by the smoke in trying to rescue some of the roomers, and was taken to the hos pital where he revived after treat ment for . several hours. Emmett Ussery, of Charlotte, was hurt worse than the others when he was forced to jump from the second story win dow, as were several others. Most of the people who slept upstairs in the building found escape down the stair steps impossible and had to jump to the ground. Mr. Swink wrenched his back in assisting the many occupants of the second story to reach the ground in safety, and several then sustained sprained &n- kles, arms, and various bruises. The two story, ten room building was at most, a total loss, as was the furni ture, and the clothing of the occu pants of the house. The fire, which Drone out around 3:00 o'clock, was first discovered by Mr. Swink. The origin is undetermined.
