The report also contained the amounts suggested for each fea ture of thep roposed celebration, such as $500 for the military feature and so on through every feature of the celebration. The $7,450 was mad" as a maximum figure and Mr. Williams stated that, the event could probably i be financed for less.

As soon as the necessary amount is guaranteed contracts will he signed with the representatives of a num ber of amusement purveyors. There are a dozen or more propositions al ready in the hands of the entertain ment committee awaiting the oppor tunity to sign up and prepare their part of the entertainment feature. It is very probable that one feature of the amusement kind will be a balloon race with three or four entries, the first of the kind ever attempted here. An aviation feature will also proba blv be included. Besides these, there is a proposal for a big midway at some point about the city and num erous features at the fair grounds, such as horse races, college athletics and other things. Other Cities Interested Mr. W. S. Orr, chairman of the committee on parades, stated that he had already received letters from sev eral towns and cities, including one or two South Carolina towns, express ing their purpose to be represented bv a float in the parade that will be held Mr. Orr explained that a great manv of the town were probably waiting until last night, the first Mondav night of the month, to lay the matter before the boards cf al dermen in their various places. He was encouraged to believe that the invitations to towns to come and par ticipat3 in the parade would meet with a hearty response. Mr Morris McDonald stated tnat he had received a letter from Dr. H. Q. Alexander, president of the North Carolina Farmers' Union, saying that organization would probably accept the invitation to be represented in the parado. Capt. T. L. Black reported that he presented, at the meeting of the of ficers of the North Carolina National Guard at Gastonia recently, an invi tation to all the military companies of the state to bep resent at the cel ebration. They evinced much inter- ready to proceed at once toward ar-j ranging his part of the program.! ae soop as the directors gave him) authority to do so. j It was agreed that Mr. Edgar . : Moore, who has had large experience in this line of .work in connection with fairs, should go this week to Atlanta to confer with the railroad authorities relative to securing the coupon feature along with the reduc tion of railroad rates for the week of the Twentieth. Mr. Morris McDon ald may accompany him. if he finds it possible, and Mayor Bland will also be asked to accompany them. Warner's Features present "In the Watches of the Night."

When I first began taking it I was Buffering from female troubles for some time and had almost all kinds of aches pains in low er part of back and in sides, and press ing down pains. I could not sleep and bad no appetite. Since I have taken Lydia E. Pirtham's Vegetable Com pound the aches and pains are all gone and I feel like a new woman. I cannot praise your medicine too highly. Mrs. Augustus Lyon, Terre Hill, Pa. It is true that nature and a woman's work has produced the grandest remedy for woman's ills that the world has ever known. From the roota and herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham, forty years ago, gave to womankind a remedy for their peculiar ills which has proved more efficacious than any other combination of drugs ever com pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is recognized from coast to coast as the standard remedy for woman's ills. In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seek ing health many of them openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia E.
