SEVERE PUNISHMENT
""
Of Mn. Chappell, of Five Year*’
Standing. Relieved! by Cardui.

I
Mt. Airy, N. C — Mrs. Sarah M. Chap
pell of this town, says: ‘‘1 suffered for
five years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my punishment
was more than any one could tell. i
I tried most every kind of medicine,
but none did me any good.
I read one day about Cardui, the wo- I
man's tonic, nd I decided to try it. 1
had not taken but about six bottles until
I was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines I had
tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked so well, and 1 told them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it.”
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of Ihe ailments due to womanly trouble, i
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
feeling?
If so. let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial. We feel confident it will help you,
just as it has a million other women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won’t regret it. All druggists.

Will Hold Adjourned Session
I
J Batesville, Nov. 14.—Circuit
court adjourned here yesterday
i after the court overruled a mo
tion for a new trial in the case
of McMichael vs. Iron Mountain
and Southern Railway ,and the
attorneys for the railroad gave
notice of appeal. McMichael
was awarded $35,000 damages.
The court here was a busy ses
sion from (he start and a great
many cases were disposed of.
The docket as published was al
most completely disposed of, but
new cases came up, and some cas
es were brought here from the
courts of other counties, which
made it impossible to clear the
docket at this session.
On that account Judge Jeffery
announced that he would hold
an adjourned session of the
court here beginning December
15th.
It is thought that the adjourn
ed session will last for at least
a week, and perhaps longer, but
Judge Jeffery announced that it
would last long enough to clear
the docket and finish up the bus
iness.
Circuit court at Mountain View
will convene the coming Mon
day, and after spending the in
tervening time at his home in
Newport, Pudge Jeffery will
leave for that place Monday
morning.
The same jurors who served
for the regular session of the
court will serve here at the ad
journed session.

A PHYSICIAN'S DIAGNOSIS OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE.
A Seemingly Common Disease
which Becomes Fatal through
Neglect and which May Be
Readily Cured by Prompt At*
tention.
More thav two-thirds of the annual
death rate, physicians claim, is directly
traceable to kidney disorders.
Interested by this remarkable asser-,
tion and desiring to acquire a better un
derstanding of the origin of the disease,
a prominent physician was recently in
terviewed as to the symptoms of such
troubles.
“To what do you attribute the great
destructiveness of kidney disease?’ was
asked.
“The hold which the disease gains in
the body before the victim becomes a ware
of his true condition, and the rapidity
with which it eats its way into the *ita1
organs.”
“Would not the proverbial ‘ounce ol
prevention’ check the progress of the
disease?”
“There is no doubt of it. ihe trouble
is that victims of this disease mistake
»he symptoms for some trifling ailment
in the stomach or bowels; therefore they
do nothing to arrest the course of the
disease until it is well advanced.”
“What is the origin of kidney trouble? ’
“Almost invariably bad digestion, fol
lowed by torpid liver and a constipated
habit.”
“What are the symptoms?”
“Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish
brain, restless nights, pale or sallow
;kin, bad breath, lack of appetite, heart
burn, sour belching, backache or tender
ness over the kidneys, nervous weak
ness, dark rings around the eyes, tired
feeling, too much or too little urine, and
sediment in urine.”
ITS EFFECT OX THE HEART.
“In what way is the heart affected from
kidney trouble?”
“In all cases the heart is disturbed,
‘.hough in many instances the palpita
tion does not become alarming until the
disease has advanced to a serious point.
A severe heart throbbing and nervous
trembling is noticeable, especially aftei
a little bodily exercise; the victim fre
quently imagines he lias heart disease.’
HOW TO CURE IT.
- ^ . -.A
“What is the proper course of treat
ment for kidney disease?”
“First, to get rid of uric acid and other
poisons in the system. This can be done
by stimulating the bladder and bowels
so that they will act more freely. The
suffering kidneys must be strengthened,
the liver and stomach toned up and the
digestion improved.”
Prickly Ash Bitters is a remedy that
answers these requirements completely.
It is not only a system tonic and regu
lator, but its healing and restorative in
fluence will build up the weakened kid
neys and urge them to a better perform
ance of their duties. It gives strength
and tone to the liver, stomach and heart
and promotes harmony of action through
out the body.
M. W. Burr, village blacksmith and respected
Citizen of Starks, La., says: "I was troubled with
kidney and liver disorder for 18 years. I was in
continual misery uutil I began taking Prickly
Ash Bitters which has entirely cured me, and t
am now a strong, healthy and hearty man. 5
give it to my wife and four children and they ar'
in the best of health, too. I feel that Prickly Ast
Bitters is the best remedy on earth and tha;
everybody should keep a bottle at home."
