THE. EASY OIL.
to
, Scott s bmulsion is
"the easy oil" easy to
take, easy in action. Its
use insures deliverance
from the griping and nau
seating sensation peculiar
to the raw oil. Nobody
who has any regard for
their stomach thinks of
taking cod liver oil in the
old way when Scott's
Emulsion is to be had.
It is equally certain that
no one having a regard for
their health will accept a
cheap emulsion or alco
holic substitute for Scott's
Emulsion. It fulfills ev
ery mission of cod liver
oil and more. ,

FUNERAL OF MISS M'CALL.
Young Lady of Grovetcn Died Very
Suddenly Yesterday Morning.
The funeral of Miss Fannie McCall,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. YV. A. Mc
Call, of Groveton, who died yesterday
morning, took place from the residence
yesterday afternoon, the services being
conducted by Rev. A. L. Coburn. The
remains were taken this morning to
the old home place about ei?:ht miles
from the city where the interment took
place.
The death of Miss McCall was very
sudden and unexpected. She spent Sat
urday afternoon in the city shopping
and after returning home did not com
plain of feeling bad until about 4:30
o'clock Sunday morning when she
called to her parents. She told them
that she felt very badly and continued
to grow worse until the end came at
the hour mentioned above.

For so the proverb runs,

TAKE TIME TO EAT.
Hurry at Meals Will Send You to
Woodall & Sheppard's for Mi-o-na
Stomach Tablets.
'"Eat in haste and repent at leisure"
is an old saying brought up to date.
Hurry at breakfast means a bad
start for the day, and if you hurry al
so at the other meals, you will soon
suffer with loss of appetite, sleepless
ness, nervousness, furred tongue,
specks before the eyes, headache,
backaches, weakness and debility, in
digestion or other ills that are caused
by an abused stomach.
Here in Charlotte, as in thousands
of other places over the country, hur
ry at meals increases the druggists"
business. Not a day passes that Wood
all & Sheppard do not sell several
packages of Mi-o-na stomach tablets to
those who have ruined their digestion
by not. taking time to eat.
Wcodall & Sheppard have seen so
many cures made by Mi-o-na that they
sell it under and absolute buarantee
that it will be successful in every case
where it is used in accordance with
the directions, that is, one tablet be
fore each meal, and will refund the
money to any one whom it does not
help. A large box of Mi-o-na tablets
costs but 50 cents if it cures; nothing
if it fails.
If not convenient to obtain Mi-o-na
of "Wooaall & Sheppard or some other
retailer it will be sent by mail postage
repaid on receipt of price.

Bladder houbles most always result from

obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and

It corrects inability to hold urine and scald

unpleasant necessity of being compelled to

TRIES TO KILL HERSELF.
Girl Drives Needles Into Her Skull
..and Breaks Them !Off Many
Other Attempts.
Denver, April 16. After having
vainly tried nearly a dozen different
novel methods of committing suicide,
Miss Mamie Hendricks, nineteen years
old. drove needles into her head with a
hammer, and after she had driven them
as far as they would go, broke them
eff, leaving the broken pieces sticking
in her skull. Later she took a butcher
knife and tried to bore a hole in her
head with it. A record of the girl's
various attempts at suicide follows:
July 23, 1902, drank half a pint of
varnish ; Oct. 2, 1.902, drank concentrat
ed lye; Sept. '25, 1903, took Peruna
and ink! Jan. 14. 1904. drank concen
trated lye; Oct. 25, 1904, eye-salve in
ternelly; Nov. G, 1904, took hair tonic
internally: Nov. 13. 1905, cut ner
forehead with a knife; April 12,1906,
pierced a hole in her head with a
darning-needle and tried, to Dore a.
hole in it with a knife.
The latest attemrot followed the ridi
cule cf neighborhood boys after Miss
Hendricks had lmured nerseii oy a
fall downstairs. The girl fell down a
cliff, her head striking on a rock, when
young and her mind has never oeen
clear since that time. Her recovery
from yesterday's wound is doubtful.
The Royal School of Embroidery.
Many of the most beautiful of the
embroideries and laces purchased in
London and Paris today are the pro
ducts of the Royal School of Embroid
eries in Athens. It was a few poor
Thessalian women, refugees in the
Turco-Greek war of 1897, who formed
the nucleus of the present flourishing
and prosperous school, where the poor
est and most unskilled of peasants
are being trained to remarkable work.
The work is not confined alone to the
parent school in Athens, but is being
extended among the islands, where its
educational influence has proved far
reaching. A full account of the found
ing, growth and fruits of the royal
school has been prepared for the May
Century by Anna Bowman Dodd, au
thor of "Normandy Inns," etc.
CORDIAL INVITATION
ADDRESSEDT0 WORKING GIRLS
Miss Barrows Tells How Mrs. Pink
ham's Advice Helps Working Girls.
Girls who work
are particularly
susceptible to fe
rn a 1 e disorders,
especially those
who are obliged
to stand on their
feet from morning-
until night in
stores or facto
ries.
Day in and day
out the girl toils,
and she is often the bread-winner of
the family. Whether she is sick or
well, whether it rains or shines, she
must get to her place of employment,
perform the duties exacted of her
smile and be agreeable.
Among this class the symptoms of
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is a burden.
All these symptoms point to a de
rangement of the female organism
which can be easily and promptly
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta
ble Compound.
Miss Abby F. Barrows, Nelsonville,
Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :
"I feel it my duty to tell you the good
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and Blood Purifier have done forme. Before
I took them I was very nervous, had dull
headaches, pains in back, and periods were
irregular, I had been to several doctors, and
thev did me no good.
"'Your medicine has made me well and
strong. I can do most any kind of work
without complaint, and my periods are all
right.
"I am in better health than I ever was,
and I know it is all due to your remedies. I
recommend your advice and medicine to all
who suffer."
It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink
ham holds out a helping hand and ex
tends a cordial invitation to correspond
with her. She is daughter-in-law of
Lj'dia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five
years has been advising sick women
free of charge. Her long record of
success in treating woman's ills makes
her letters of advice of untold value to
every ailing working girl. Address,
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass.

How Rapid Life is Killing Our People.
UNPRECEDENTED NUMBER OF DEATHS RESULT FROM HEART DISEASE.
. The fact that 125 persons died recently
In one week in New York City, from
heart disease, when the death rate the
corresponding week in 1904 was only 56,
has given rise to the belief among phy
sicians that New York residents, and
American people generally, for that mat
ter, are living too rapidly. The strain of
business and cares attendant on fierce
competition and the worry attendant on
anxiety to gain wealth are given a aa
explanation by physicians of the condi
tions which exist to-day.
Doctors have established the fact that
the nerve forces which control the stom

years ago, a case was rare when a person
under 30 years of age died from this
malady.
Women are also victims. This is at
tributed to the manner in which they
worry over social engagements, also to
over-work. Worry and excitement, to
gether with many nerve .shocks which
come to all in their daily 'life, of bustle
and hustle, are the principal causes
which snap the heartstrings.
We Americans, both men and women,
are living too fast. We work too hard
and worry too much. How can the strain
be best contracted and the damage done
be quickest repaired ? Only by humor
ing and assisting the stomach to act in a
more healthy manner. -Thus will the
blood be enriched, the nerves invigorated
and the action of an enfeebled heart
strengthened and regulated. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery contains just
the right ingredients to do this, as will
be seen from what eminent medical
authorities say of the different ingre
dients composing it. To make the weak
ened stomach strong that it may prop
erly digest the food and thus manu
facture rich, red blood. " Golden Seal, a
prominent ingredient of the " Golden
Medical Discovery " is pre-eminently the
article needed. The late Prof. John M.
Scudder, M. D., of Cincinnati, author of
"Specific Medication," says of it:
"It stimulates the digestive processes,
and increases the assimilation of food.
By these means tfie blood is enriched.
The consequent improvement
on the nervous and glandular systems
are natural results." He further says :
"In relation to its general effects on the
system, there is 110 medicine in use about
which tJiere is such general unanimity of
opinion. It is rmiversally regarded as
the tonic useful in all debilitated states."
The United States Dispensatory
says of Golden Seal root: "As a local
remedy Hydrastis (Golden Seal) has
a remarkable effect upon the mucous
membranes. Used in gastrointestinal
(stomach-bowel) catarrhs. ,
" In its influence upon the nervous
svstem this agent (Golden Seal), has
stimulating properties, affecting respira
tion and circulation, imparting lone and
increased power to the heart s action.
Then besides Golden Seal, which, ac
cording to the best medical authorities,
stands at the head of all stomach and
heart tonics and invigorators, there is
Stone root (Collinsonia Canadensis).which
enters largely into the composition of
"Golden Medical Discovery," and it is an
acknowledged stomach and heart tonic
especially superior to all other remedies
in valvular and other affections of the
heart. The late Prof. Wm. Paine. M. D.,
of Phila., says in his work on Concen
trated Medicines:
"I, not long since, had a. patient who
was so much oppressed with a valvular
djsease of the heart that his friends were
obliged to carry him up-stairs. He. how
ever, gradually recovered under the infln
ruce of Collinsonin (the active medicinal
' principle of Stone root), and is now at

tonic and invigcrator, "Golden Medical

It is a trite saying that no man is
stronger than his stomach. Dr. Pierce's
(olden Medical Discovery strengthens
the stomach puts it in shape to make
pure, rich blood helps the liver and
kidneys to expel the poisons from the
body and thus cures both liver and kid
ney troubles. If you take this natural
blood purifier and tonic, you will assist
your system in manufacturing each day
a pint of rich, red blood, that is invigo
rating to the brain and nerves. The
weak, nervous, run-down, debilitated
condition which so many people suffer
from, is usually the effect of poisons in
the blood; it is often indicated by pimples
or boils appearing on the skin, the face
becomes thin and the feelings "blue."
Dr. Pierce's "Discovery" cures all blood
