and was very disheartened spent hundreds
Of dollars In doct0ring, but the tumor kept
growing, TIL the doctor said that nothing but
an operation would save me. Fortunately /
corresponded with my aunt IN the New Eng
and States who al vised me 10 try Lydia +
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound before sub
hitting 10 an operation, and I at once started
taking a regular treatment, finding 10 my
great relief that my general health began %
Improve. and after three months l noticed
that the tumor bad reduced in size I kept
on taking the Compound, and In ten months
70 had entirely disappeared without an oper
alton, and using no medicine but Lydia
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound, and words
fail 10 express how grateful am FOR the good

Largest Bust on Record.

The bust of Sir Joseph Paxton, the architect of the famous Crystal palace in London, is now being moved from its old position on the Terrace to the Pa rade. The work of moving it Is much like that of moving house, for the bust is one of the largest ever made. It was completed in 1869 and stands over nine feet in height. Sir Joseph Paxton was born in Bedfordshire in 1903, and was knighted for his services in designing the Crystal palace. He died in Syden- ham in 1865. His plan for the Crystal palace was accepted after 233 other plans had been declined. He also won fame as landscape gardener and archi- tect, and was elected to parliament as Tribune.

MANY STAGE SETTINGS.
Elaborate Preparations for the Pro- ductiOn of New Modern
 Drama.

The preparation for a new play, as far as the scenery is concerned, is most interesting. A complete model in min iature is made about the size of one of the Ger1n.-n toy theaters seen in the shops. T.e picture Is carefully painted, the rc .1,s, if there be any, and the foliage are cut uut, and all the de- tails are followed with no less thought than when the real affair is attacked. The work is done in water color, mounted on pasteboard, and if the scheme be an interior there are real curtains in miniature, flights of steps, and the hangings, all seriously worked out. It is something that would de- light the heart of boy and furnish him with endless amusement. These models are kept until after the piece is produced aud are then put away on shelves, alas! only to warp and be- come covered with dust. But the mas- ter painters work does not end here by any means, for there are lights to be arranged, since they play an impor- tant part in the performance, and must be regulated by the scheme of color, so there are long conferences with electricians and many discussions with the makers of glass shades where by the exact tints may be obtained. When every detail has been settled then the great acres of canvas are spread on the paint frames and the drawing is begun. Large china pots are used for the colors. These are filled with paints, which are mixed with water and size, and enormous brushes put the pigment on the can vas. It is wonderful to watch the artist, who dashes on the paint with no apparent care and who has to work fast to cover the surface before the color dries, which it does quickly.-N. Y Commercial Advertiser,

A Living

If we were to assemble all those who have been cured of heart disease by Dr. Miles Heart Cure, and who would to-day be in their graves had not Dr. Miles been successful in perfecting this wonderful heart specific, they would pop ulate a large city.

Is Prohibition a Success.

We leave this for the people of the To-
calities interested to decide, while we
try to induce those who have to use it,
for sickness of for family use in any
way. to use pure whiskey. The kind
that does the least harm and the most
good. We don't suppose there ever was
or ever will be a person but who would
want pure whiskey il he could get it,
and yet, the impure article has been
sold so much, and the claim S o often
made that it was pure that some people
do not know the taste or qualifications
of the genuine article.
Convenience again causes some to be
careless in ordering their whiskey.
They either imagine they will not get
their orders filed promptly, or that we
are too far away to give their orders
the attention they should have. Still
another wrong impression, as we deliver
goods in the South as promptly as to
local points, and we make a specially OF
shipping all orders promptly on the first
train.
During the last three months we have
endeavored to give the readers Of this
paper a few facts concerning whiskey
to guide them in it's use and buying. We
have already received magnificent re
suits, and are particularly pleased will
our part of the advertising, and should
there be anyone who would like for III
to go more into details, we will give
them all the information they desire i
they will write us.
Let us send you our order blanks an
instructions-give Premier Pure a trial
and even though you are the poores
judge of whiskey you will experience NJ
trouble in telling the difference in on
goods and others.

COMMONWEALTH AD
BRINGS BIG RETURNS.
Greenwood Furniture CO., Make Good
Sale, Traceab;e to Their Ad.

That ads in The Commonwealth bring
splendid returns, has been SO often de-
monstrated by local merchants that it
needs no argument to convince those
who have already tried the experiment.
A case in point occurred recently. Mr..
G. E. Wright, manager of the Greenwood
Furniture Co., in speaking to a repre-
sentative Of the Commonwealth the 9th
or day relative to the splendid trade has
been doing recently, was asked II he
could trace results from his advertising.
He replied:
yes, our advertising in the Common
wealth has brought us satisfactory re-
turns. For instance, / had an inquiry
from a w~ell-known citizen Of Morehead
for some furniture she saw advertised
in our page ad in The Commonwealth
recently. In answer to the letter, |
made q trip to Morehcad, and in a very
worth Of furniture. | have found that
newspaper advertising pays a splendid
interest on the Investment, and am wei
satisfied with the advertising results il
The Commonwealth.
The moral is obvious: The merchanr
who will use space regularly in his loca
paper, and who gets up his ads properly
will find it the best investment he can
make. And, by the way, it should b.
regarded as investment, and not an ex
