TO WOMEN
Tdb of Mrs. Vogel's Terrible Suf
fering sod How Sbe Was Restored
to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound
Detroit, Michigan. — “My troubles
were severe pains in my back and ter
ruue oeating-aown
pains in my right
side, also headaches
and sleepless nights.
I first began having
troubles when 1 was
16, and they have in
creased as 1 grew
older. A little book
let was left at my
door, and Iread
what Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable
Compound has done
for women and decided to try it After
the first week I could go to sleep every
night and I stopped having that nervous
feeling and got a better appetite. The
doctor had always said that an operation
was the only thing that would help me,
but I never had any faith in an opera
tion. Since the Vegetable Compound
has started helping me I do not suffer
the severe pains, feel stronger, and am
able to do my own work. I am more
than glad to tell my friends that it helps
where other medicines have failed."—
Mrs. Gus Vogel, 6608 Pelouze Street,
Detroit, Michigan.,
A record of fifty years service mugt
convince women of the merit of Lydia

show shape. Poultry was also extra
good at El Bethel.
The Boiling Spring? fair was the

this year were notably good, while;
the farm and field crops ran better
than last year, although Inst year
was a bcter crop year than this.
There was a splendid exhibit of poul- !
try, while the races and basket ball |
games furnished amusement to the
large crowd present.

Worth Carolina is setting a vigorous
pace.
* Government reports show that—
North Carolina, in twenty years, has
made a gain in wealth from less than
i- million to more than four and a
half billion dollars.
In ten years, while the rest of the
country has gained 72%, North Caro
lina has added 176% to her wealth.
From less than 100 million dollars
'. twenty years ago, the manufacturing
output of the State has risen to nearly
a Million dollars a year.
The value of fiarm properties is five
times and the value of farm products
hine times the value of twenty years
ago.
Amazing has been the industrial ad
vance of North Carolina. And the
State has only just begun to grow.
.The progressive population which has
capitalized this opportunity inevi
tably will carry the State forward to
greater industrial activity and in
creating prosperity.
The Southern Railway has had to
fceep pace with North Carolina, be

OUt adequate transportation facilities.
'With courage and foresight, and an
faith in the future of North
the Southern has gone
steadily ahead, in good years and bad
years, putting new capital into its
property—improving its lines for
heavier traffic, acquiring equipment
of greater capacfty, and increasing
the .ability of the road to provide
dependable and adequate service.
