"Ho, the woods!" warbles an
Alabama poet. All right, ho it,
and get through with it; they
will need you pretty soon to help
hoe the cotton patch.
If you want to ruin your boy
just take his side on every ques
tkm and dispute he has with his
teacher or your neigbors' child
ren. Just let him know you are
with hijn, right or wrong, in all
his hisputes. This will give him
a good start in the downward
path.
Ages pass, but each returfilrfg
Easter brings again its lessons
of sacrifice, 01 unselfishness and
sf great love for humanity. Great
snowy banks of lilies, emblems
of purity, are offered in remem
brance of the greatest self-abne
gation in the history of the
world. In vast cathedral and
modest chapel vibrates the ma
jestic music of praise for that
most wonderful resurrection, up
on which is based the faith of
the mightiest people of the earth.
"Keep it out of the paper" is
the cry wich the local newspaper
publisher diily hears, To oblige
often costs considerable, though
the party who makes the* request
thinks the granting scarcely
worth saying "thank you" for.
A newspaper is a peculiar thing
in the public's eye. The news
gather is stormed at because he
gets hold of one item and is
abused because he does not get
another. Young men, and often
young women, as well as oltfer
persons, perform acts which be
come legitimate items for publi
cation and then rush to the new
paper office and beg the editor
not to notice their escapades.
The next day they condenm the
same paper for not having pub
ished another party doing the
same thing they were guilty of,
forgetting apparently their late
visit to the printing office.

Iron and Atom Water
J '
Contains such a remarkable combina
tion of natural minerals that it has
■ made a reputation fofr itself by curing
i Chronic Diseases after many other
; treatments had failed.
I It is 150 times as stiOng as the Nat
| ural water, and one 18 oz. bottle of it
j equal; 25 gallons. Only a teaspoon
i ful is necessary for a dose.
Its equal cannot be found in the
| treatment of Indigestion, Rheumatism,
( Catarrh, Kidney and Bladder Eroubles,
Female Complaints, Malaria, Nervous
ness, Stomach and Bowel Disorders,
Piles, Inactive Liver, Scrofula and oth
er Blood and Skin Diseases.
Th«s water is simply a Natural
treatment for Chronic Diseases, and is
'by no means a patent madicine. By
, its use you can be cured in your own
home, at the cost of 5c per day even
better than vour rich neighbor who
spends several hundred dollars, and
loses several months time by going to
the Springs.
We do not want your money unless
we can do you good. Read what it
has done for others.

TESTIMONIALS
I think your Iron and Alum Water
s fine tonic, also splendid for inactive
Kidneys and Indigestion,
W. A. SCOTT,
Chief of Police,
Greensboro, N. C.
I have recently prescribed your Con
centrated Iron and Alum Water for a
lady who was the subiect of a very
prostrated case of Typhoid Fever dur
ing the past summe. She derived
great benefit from the ;water, and has
continued to take it. I can endorse
it as an excellent tonic, particularly in
Nervous and Neurasthenic females
DR. HENRY W. LEWIS,
Member N. C. Board of Health,
Jackson, N. C. -
About six months ago I had an at
tack of chil's and fever, having a chill
nearly every day for thirty or thirty-five
days. I commenced using your Con
centrated Iron and Alum Water, and
after I commenced using it I only had
one more chill, and was completely
cured at once. I soon regained my
appetite, weight and strength. I con
sider it the best medicine I ever used,
and shall continue its use when sick.
JAS. KIRKPATRICK,
Burlington, N. C.
I do not hesitate to recomfaend
Piedmont-Bedford Concentrated Iron
I and Alum Water, which I have used in
imy practice several years with fine re
sults. Especially do I recomment it
for diseases peculiar to females, and
it is with pleasure I add my tesiimony
to such valuable medicine as I know
this to be.
E. H. MURRELL, M. D.,
Lynchburg, Va.
I was an intense sufferer for some
months with Indigestion, and could
get no relief from the ordinary reme
dies. During the month of January I
began the use of your Concentrated
Water, and one bottle has entirely re
lieved me. I can now digest any diet
and am entirely free from suffering. I
take great pleasure in giving this testi
