Established 1399 ON THE SOUTH FORK. Cvrus Yo ;er Travels Clear Across the Map-Personals. Correspondence of the Democrat. Jacob's Fork, Jan. 30.—This coid speil has frozen out all the g:ne al news in r.his vicinity. It caused a delay in plowing operations. But iume few farm ers aid not stop. Tne folks are havir.g their social and box parties, as they call them. Cyrus N Yoder, a lumber in- 1 spector at a saw mill in Califor-! nia, near Savona, has been to' Texas to visit his brothers, who j live there, and has returned to' California. He went byway of Chicago, through North Dakota and Montana, to visit his sister, Lilly, who is employed in a hotel on the main line. From there it takes him about 40 hours to reach his home. Miss May Finger, a trained nurse, is on a visit to her sister Blanche, who is also a trained nurse in Virginia. , Some few farmers have—been hauling potatoes to Charlotte for the last few weeks. D. L. Leonard has bought Miss Mary Finger's pine land at $32 per acre. Rufus Helton will soon finish sawing the pine timber bought of Lee Yoder. He is getting out lumber to build a large commo dious barn. Enloe Yoder, the County Sur veyor. has been surveying land about Plateau. The young people had a box party at the Yoder school house the past Saturday night and real ized about sl6 in clean cash. Ralph Yoder's Texas measles that he brought home has about played out. Charles Shuford has completed his new house which will be oc cupied this coming week. Sam. V. Yoder is still at his father, F. A. Yoder's, recuper ating from the rheumatism. All is very quiet now, though there has been some trouble in the neighborhood that will be settled ere long, we hope. There was some drinking of booze by some of the young men, ol : which they ought to be ash amed in walking in such a course of evil. COLONEL. Her Life a Burden Ruciiff, Tex —ln a letter from Ritcliff, Mrs MattieCampbell says, "My health was very bad. I suffered un told misery every month, and at times, I wished for death to end my suffering for life was a burden to me. I tried Cardui, and it helped me right away. Cardui has stopped my suffering, made life worth living, and filled my home with joy and happiness." If you suffer as Mrs. Campbell did, Cardui will certainly help you, as it did her. Why not try it? 11 Salt as a Fertilizer. Bueklen's Almanac for 1911 is an extremely useful and instruc tive publication. The following is only an illustration of the many good hints in it : The French and German Agri culturist recommends salt per acre, for clover, 150 lbs.; for wheat or flax, 250 lbs.; and for barley and potatoes, 300 lbs; to be sown broadcast early in the sea3on. It keeps the land cool and moist. It neutralizes dro wth. It exterminates all soil vermin. It prevents potato rot and glazes and stiffens straw, preventing crinkling and rust. It keeps the ground in such condition that the berry of many kinds of gram fills plumplv, regardless of long continued hot and dry weather.

The town seems to- be practically a unit to have it in this fine situa tion. The Huffry Hotel was built about ten years ahead of the town, as a modern hostelry, and for its sake alone we should like to see the hotel "Put at this place. Two hundred travelling men have signed a petition to the same effect. A parkway is . provided for from 13ih st* to the depot and driveway at the rear at the limit of the railroad's right away. And now that the site is de cided, let have the depot, please, Mr. Finley, Texas Woman Near Death Wills Point, Tex. —In a letter from Wills Point, Mrs. yictoria Stallings says: ''l was afflicted with womanly? trou les, had a dreadful cough, and suffered awful pains.

I commenced to take Cardui, and I saw it was helping me, at once. Now, I can work all ;ay." As a tonic, for weak women, nothing has been found, for fifty years, that would take the pl vie of Cardui. Try a bottle toiiy. It will surely do you good. 8 There is a remarkable fine likeness of President Finlev. of the Southern Railway in Moser & Lutz window. It is a little car toon said to be the work of Mr. Fred Flagler. Stopped Those Pains Timberville, Miss Gertrude Gatlin, of Timberville, writes:"l did not know anything could stop those Womanly i pains, from which I suffered for two years,until I tried Cardui.

It relieves headache, backachs, dragging leelings, irregularity, nervousness, misery, and womanly weakness. It is safe. It is reliable. It does the work. : Will you U7 it?

In the ab sence of her pastor, Mr. Hollo way, her funeral was preached by Mf- SinforJ, of the Granite Falls station. A large crowd at i tended the burial, attesting the high esteem in which the deceased ! was held. Her husband, Wm. j W. Sherrill, was not able to be at ,the funeral, he having been in i bed with penumonia and only able to be about in the house. Mrs. Sherrill was about 83 years old, bad been very delicate for a number of years. She had been a member of the Methodist | church almost from childhood. She was unassuming having j passed a very quiet life as home | keeDer. We extend sympathy to the bereaved ones. vVork is now being done on the old road just north of the Catawba bridge. It is purposed to build a bridge over the branch I and about the steep part of road at the top of the hill and j onen up the road to the public. | The new road has been a disap pointment. During rainy the I weather it becomes almost im ! posible to pass over it with empty i wagons, much less loaded.

CAUSES 95 PER CENT OF DISEASES Advice Concerning Stomach Troubles and How to Remedy Them Do not neglect indigestion which leads to all sorts of ills and complica tions An eminent doctor once said that ninety-five per cent of all the ills of the human body have their origin in a disordered stomach. A phisician who made a specialty of stomache troubles, particularly dyspep sia, after years of study perfected the formula from which Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are made. Our experience with Rexall Dyspep sia Tablets lead us to believe them 10 be the greatest remedy known for the relief of acute indigestion and chronic dyspepsia. Their ingredients are sooth ing and healing to the inflamed mem branes of the stomach. They are rich in pepsin, one of the greatest digestive aids known to medicine. The relief they afford is almost immediate. Their use with persistency and regularity for a short time brings about a cessation of the pains caused by stomach disor ders. Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will insure healthy appetite, aid digestion and promote nutrition. As evidence of our sincere faith in RexaU Dyspepsia Tab lets, we ask you to try them at our risk. If they do not give you entire satisfaction, we will return you the money you paid us for them, without question or formality. They come in three sizes, price 25 cents, 50 cents and S.OO. Remember you can obtain them only at our store. —The Rexall Store. The Grimes Drug Co. Two of Hickory's popular young men, Messrs.
