New Scheme to Secure Labor.

A new scheme has been ad opt,
ed by the labor agents who are
now busily engaged cnticing ne

construction camps from the hill
countries of the state. The plan
is to EN- ploy intelligent colored
women who move about among
the labor forces and picture the
glitterng inducements offered
by contractors and planters else,

scheme lies in the fact that the

A WORD TO FARM TOILERS.
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
The Home Friend of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls ofthe summer time,
and harvesting of crops in the early autumn,
many of our farmers, their wives, daughters,
and sons, find themselves in condition of
health demanding careful attention if suffering
is to be avoided later on. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver is torpid; there is bilousness, nausea, and
vomiting, with loss of appetite and depression
of spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, damp winds and rains while toilng in
the harvest fields, now feel the twinges of
terrible rheumatism;, others run down by
worry, overwork, and irregular dieting, are
tormented with the pangs of dyspepsia.
10 the thousands of run down, sickly, and
half dead men and women in farm homes we
recommend with all honesty and confidence
the workers friend, Paine's Celery Compound,
the only medicine that can quickly and fully
restore strength Ap the weak body and vigor to
the muscles. Paine's Celery Compound tones
the stomach; it removes poisonous acids from
the blood which cause rheumatism; it feeds
the weak and diseased nerves and banishes
neuralgia tortures; it purifes the blood and
gives true vitality and life. The use of Paine's
Celery Compound in autumn means the estab-
fishing of perfect physical vjgor to Withstand
the ngors OF a severe winter.

Her love andconstancy are, by far

He is Willing to go to Washington

in the senate last Saturday.
