Atlanta Engineer Won Bet Pulling Wilson in on Time. By puttinur the presidential special into Atlanta on the dot at 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon, Engineer L. F. Busiia of the Southern Railway. won "the eats" from th rt train dispatcher at Charlotte, N. C. The wager between the engin eer and the dispatcher hinged upon the former arriving with the President in At'anta at exact schedule—neuher one second early nor one second too late. He won by bringing the train to a dead stop in the terminal as the hands of the clock tplit 5. "Wire him I'll take bacon crisp and eggs scrambled," said the engineer to the At'anta dispatch er, as he climbed down from his engine, Mr. Busha is a resident of College Park. The Southern rail way put one of its best engines at the head of the President's train from Cnariotte, and gave Mr. Busha the honor of running it because he has been with thi road twenty years and his recon is one of the best. Not a mishap marred the trip. —Atlanta Journ al.

A MESSAGETO WOMEN Who Are "Just Ready to Drop." When you aro "just ready to drop," when you feel 80 weak that you can hardly drag yourself about—and be cause you have not slept well, you get up as tired-out next morning as when you went to bed, you need help. Miss Lea Dumas writes from Ma lone, N. Y., saving: "I was in a bad ly run-down condition for several weeks but two bottles of Vinol put me on my feet again and made me •trong and well Vinol has done me more good than all the other medi cines I ever took." If the careworn, run-down women, the pale, sickly children and feeble old folks around here would follow Miss Dumas' esample, they, too, would eoon be able to say that Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron remedy, had built them up and made them strong.

Women of Mexico in Active Warfare A dispatch from Del Rio, Texas, 3 ays the women of Mexico are playing i prominent part in the warfare of the southern Republic principally as "sola daderas," foraging succesifu ly fcr the men, and occasionally as actual fight ers. This is true probably because the present revolution has touched individ uals and homes more intimately than any other conflict of recent times. Mearly every woman in northern Mex ico has seen warfare, shorn of its the atricality. because it entered the home and left death and want. Many of these women have left their homes rather than remain alone, and a few of them have gone under fire to get revenge. In the tiege new in progress atMon terey, a valuable member of General Pablo Gonzale's Constitutionalist com mand is Senorita Marie Sanchez, said to j2 a wealthy Castillian whose brother .vas shot by Federal irregulars. She up the comforts of a luxurioui iome and begged for permission to re place her brother. A few months ago at Montclova. a son of Senora Pimental, cf that city, had been sentenced to be shot. The mother got into the Federal jail by stealth, stabbed two of the guard-, and rescued her son. In the Federal ranks there is told the story of the wife of an officer, who led the Constitutionalists into an ambus cade at Puerta Carmen, and though fired upon by the maddened troops, galloped through the lines to her hus band's side. When the Federal army cf General Maass occupied the Constitutionalist's ; provisional capitol at Piedras Negras on the American border across from Eagle Pass, the "solaSaderas" played an im-: portant role in the blcodicss capture A small group of them pitched their tents on the overlooking hills two days before their men arrived, acting as look j outs. When the army arrived, fully 500 cf these soldier women accompa nied it, most of them guarding the wa gon trains, wh.ch their skill as foragers had filled to bursting. A few hours af ter the city was occupied, the women spread suvper for the entire army in the open p'.rza It is said a demmd for food h m e refused these "solodaieras." i -uv are expert with both knife or-.i r.ne and no. sow to empby t.. uo Oi death to gsi what they way.

A citizen of Statesville familiar with the tobacco trade and with the territo ry suitable for growing tobacco, says that with tobacco at profitable prices, the farmers of Catawba county have a gcod field before them. "There are some sections of Cataw ba county," says the gentleman, "where excellent tobacco can be grown. So far as I'm informed the farmers of our neighbor county are not growing tobacco to any extent. There are cer tainly some sections where I belitve the farmers would add very materially to their income by growing tobacco. The land and climate pre suitable for producing good tobacco and when pri ces are so good much money could be seared. When a man keeps cows and stock I do not know that I would advise one 10 go too extensively in tobacco. But there are many farmers who are not in the dairy or cattle business. In some sections the farmers are looking around for a money crop, a crop which may be called a surplus and money crop. To bacco may be the thing. ''Statesville is near at hand for these Catawba farmers and an excellent (mar ket is offered here for all the tobacco brot ght in. The buyers are coming here and they come to buy. With suit: ble lands and a good market close at hind I feel satisfied that many Ca tawl a county farmers will certainly find tobacco worth a trial at least." Income Tax in Force.

My stomach was very much swollen. My bowels acted as if I had acute dysentery. I was in great distress and pain. Three doctors had been employed, but gave me no relief. I was .continually growing worse. t Was In Despair. "In my despair I caught at every straw. Picking up a newspaper I saw some account of Peruna. There was a testimonial from a woman who had been troubled much like myself. I concluded to try Peruna. 1 Wrote to Dr. Hartman. "At the same time I wrote to Dr. Hartman. He pronounced my case catarrh of the stomach and bowels. I soon began taking Peruna. At once I began to improve. After tak ing half a bottle my stomach was so improved that I could eat some." I Began to Recover. Then this good housewife goes on I to narrate in detail her rapid im provement and final, recovery. She said. "After taking two bottles of Pe runa I was strong enough to stand up to wash the dishes." When she be gan taking Peruna she weighed 102 pounds. After she had taken five bottles of Peruna she weighed 122 pounds. She concludes by saying that she Is welL It Was Twelve Years Ago. The letter from which the above quotations were made was received January 29, 1901. In a later letter, written September 11, 1904, she says, "I sing the praises of Peruna far and near.
