THERE tS HO SUBSTITUTE
BELLAIR.
Apill 15. The public school at Bellair
will cloae next week and Miss Edna
Llneberry, the teacher, has done very
acceptable eervice. 8ho le a faithful,
patient worker. Wo would be glad to
secure her services for next fall term.
On Friday evening, April 24th, there
will be a concert at Bellair school house
by the school and young people of the
community. Public are cordially Invited
to attend. We do not hear or any ad
mittance fee, but It will bs safe to bring
a little cash for when you Icum that the
school room needs scats ac 1 desks you
will desire to help them.
The full moon In Apvl has passed and
the prcllcicd frost ha not come, so the
truckers aro rejoicing that what few
peas they have will not likely bo killed
this time.
The pea crop U very poor, poor stand
and not full ( fruit. Cabbsge generally
far behind l he avenge, they diid out
bidly and run to soed, and a few headed
up so small that they could have boen
mailed iu good niz envelopes. The
heavy rain did Bomo dsmage In a few
bottoms wheic potatoes nro planted,
consequently there Is net a good stand In
wet places.
Early planted c:irn is coming up nice
ly, and cotton pi .in ling will soon begin,
If those beautiful spring days continue
to dispense their bounllcg of sunshine
and gentle zephyrs. The strawberry
crop will soon l;o in Its prime, a few
shipments have already gone .forward.
Our fruit crop Is thus far safe and
promises to be a bountiful one. Nearly
all kinds of fruit In our midst seems to
be in abundance and prospects good thus
far.
The absence of much wind has marked
March this year, and thus far April has
not done much borrowing.
Next Saturday and Bunday 18, 19, the
Second Quarterly meeting for Craven
circuit will be held at beech Grove.

Enemy to Women.
RET. HARRIET R. EDWARDS, ( LISTON, IA.
Hcv. Harriet R. Edwards in a rceent letter from Mt. Pleasant Park,
Clinton, la., writes:
" have found that Penna Is a wonderful medlclno to use In diseases
peculiar to women. It quickly and permanently restores health and vigor
and arts csa natural toalc to a worn-out system. I have so tar never observed
a case which was not greatly aided hylts use. "-REV. DR. H. R. EDWARDS.
THERE aro a multitude of women,
especially housewives, and nil other
women obliged to bo on their feet
constantly, who aro wretched beyond do
scription, simply becauso their strength
and vitality Is sapped away by catarrhal
discharges from tho pelvic organs.
These women get up in tho morning
tired, ''drag themselves through their
dally duties tired, only to go to bed at
night as tired as before.
Peruna Is such a perfect fipeeillo for
each case that when patients havo ones
usod it they can never bo induced to
quit it until they arc permanently cured.
It begins to relievo tho disasroeable
i'.ity oi (iriy SufYercrH.
It is now t::i:vi'rsn!!y realized thut
grip Is contagious. Many persons are
still dlnposed to treat it lightly. Their
heedlessness Is liable to spread a mal
ady which too often develops into
pneumonia, whose fatality this seuaon
is unprecedented. Grip sufferers should
neither receive nor pay visits, and to
whatever degree they aro nble to de
tach themselves from tho rest of tho
community they should remain detach
ed until their influenza symptoms have
disappeared. Unfortunately, n largo
portion of the American people canuot
follow such advice. Thoso who can aro
Inexcusable for refusing to tako It.
