When physician tells n woman, sui
fering from female trouble, that an
operation is necessary it, OF course
frightens her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror to
her heart AS one woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for just such operations!
1t is quite true that these troubles
may reach stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed,
because a great many women have
been cured by Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must be per-
formed. In fact, up to the point where
the knife must be used to secure instant
relief, this medicine is certain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from
women who, by taking Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, have
escaped serious operations.
Margrite Ryan, Treasurer OF St.
Andrews Society, Indianapolis, Ind,
writes of her cure as follows:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
81 cannot find words to express my thanks
for tho good Lydia e. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound did me. The doctor said | could

81 dined with Charles Dana Gibson
at Princess restaurant in London
during the season." said Chicagoan.
THE lofty, spacious dining room
was filled with women in pale gowns,
their hair uncovered and their arms
and necks bare, and though these
women were fashionable, aristocratic,
they smoked cigarettes with their
coffee as they watched the biscope
pictures that went on at one end of
the big room, and as they listened to
the singing that went.On at the other.
Amid all this feminine smoking
we Americans began to discuss and
to define the word lady Was it
ladylike to smoke? we asked. Would
a lady ever smoke? What was a
lady?
Il think Mr.. Gibson's definition of
a lady was the best that was given
"a lady he said, ignoring the
smoke question altogether, is a wom-
an who always remembers Others and
never forgets herself '-Philadel-
phia Bulletin.

AS will be seen by the outline Of the
proposed time card published in an
other column, the c. & NV. rail-
road people have definitely decided to
put on the additional passenger train
referred to recently, and 1t will be a
good one for all points along the line
Of the road in this county, especially
Yorkville.
Going north, trains carrying passen-
gers one mixed and the other two reg
ular passenger trains will leave York
vile at 5.57 a. m, s.4S a. m, and SO
p. m, and going south the schedule
will be 80 a. m, 3.05 p. m, and $50
p. m.
People living in the county to the
north Of Yorkville, may leave home af-
ter 8 o'clock in the morning, reach
this place at 80 a. m, and leave for
home at $40 p. m. If they do not
care to remain here all day they may
arrive at sos, and start back home in
about two hours. People from the
south may leave after o'clock, get to
Yorkville before 10 and start back
home at either S.O5 or $50 p. m.
The schedule Of the Southern already
run so as to permit people from either
the east or west to spend eight to
twelve hours in Yoarkville and get
back the same day.
This new schedule will prove Of very
great advantage to the town Of York.

The very desirable building lot on
East Liberty street, purchased by the
town a few years ago with the view OF
eventually putting a town hall, or at

headquarters on it, is to be sold. That
Is the present mind of the town coun-
ell. Because of recent extraordinary
expenditures in connection with the
installation Of the electric service from
the Catawba Power company, and for
various other purposes, the town is now
several thousand dollars in debt, with
the tax levy pledged as security
against outstanding notes, and at a
meeting held one night last week, it
was decided to offer this lot for sale.
1t is not understood, however, that the
sale Is to be go except the price Of

Next Monday is salesday for
March and the indications are that it
will be a good day for business, espe-
cially in horse and mule flesh.
Mr.. F. C. Black has moved his in
surance office to the room over the
rear of the store Of the Strauss-Smith
company, in the Witherspoon building
- There has been very little demand
for electric power up to this time be-
cause of a feeling on the part of
rates fixed by the town Is rather higher
than ordinary consumers can afford to
pay. The quality of the service, how
ever is most excellent.
- The moving picture people, who
are to exhibit in the opera house to-
morrow night, promise quite lengthy
and interesting programme, practically
every number of which will be new to
the people Of this place. They claim
for their machine great superiority
over those carried by street show peo-
pie.
- The horse Of a negro preacher
named Griffin ran away down Chester
road yesterday and carried a buggy
across the c. & NV trestle over the
Southern on the outskirts Of town.
The animal made two or three mis-
steps between the crossties, first with
front legs and then with hind legs;
but managed to complete the trip
without breaking any of its legs and
then continued to run as If it had not
been injured at all.
- The Ladies Auxiliary society OF the
Yorkville Cemetery association has
commenced the work of beautifying
the lot recently acquired in froht OF
the cemetery. The lot has been plow-
ed up and is now being laid off In
walks Among other things, the beau
tifcation plan contemplates the setting
of numerous flowers of the choicest
varieties. AS yet there. has been no
call for contributions of money; but
these will be welcome, and the local
public may rest assured that they will
be put to proper use.
People are beginning to talk about
the approaching municipal election,
still nearly three months off. Several
names have been mentioned in connec-
ton with the office of mayor; but up
to this time the situation seems to be
