Sick
Headache

When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous sys-
tenn, centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom-
ach causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and
prolonged attacks weaken the
brain, resulting in loss of
memory, inflammation, epi-
lepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated,
aching condition by taking
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by sooth-

Bureau Report on Acreage.

Under the present systematic
method Of gathering statistics by
the United States government it
will be utterly impossible for the
cotton growers to deceive the pub
lie as to the amount of cotton ac-
reage put into cultivation during
the next 90 days. The United
States department of agriculture,
through its thousands Of cores
pondent in the cotton belt, will
have prepared carefully tabulat-
ed statement, which will be issued
on June sd, stating the number of
acres of cotton that will be plant
ed in the south this year. If this
report shows a general decrease
in acreage Of IS per cent, then
the problem of southern pros
perity during the year of 1905
will be solved. If, however, the
report indicates but a small de-
crease, or shows practically the
same acreage as that of 1904. no
power under heaven can stop the
immediate downward tendency in
the price Of cotton, and financial
ruin and disaster will present itself
to every line Of business and all
professions in the south within
the next eight months. The at
tention OF the entire cotton world
is turned at this time upon the
action of the cotton growers and
they have now the practical control
Of the situation.-Harvie Jordan.
