MRS. LOU M. CHURCHILL,
g High ST., Penacook, n. II.
Many persons have headache
after any little excitement or ex-
ertion. They cannot attend
church, lectures, entertainments,
Or ride on trains without suffer-
ing. Those who suffer in this
way should try DR.. Miles Anti
Pain Pills. They give almost
instant relief without leaving
any disagreeable after-effects, as
they do not derange the stomach
or bowels; just a pleasurable
sense of relief follows their use.

regarding one of the most progressive
towns in the State, Kingstree, an
original English settlement, as its
name will indicate. Seven years ago
the writer visited this town and the
less said the better. Now, what does
he see and learn? And now, as briefly
as possible, he will give slight re-

serves the patronage of the public.
The court house is about rs or 50

A tobacco warehouse is now in
course of construction.
The Klngstree High school is d
model building and we'll equipped
forthe comfort and convenience OF
teachers and pupils.
Kingstree enjoys four churches;
Methodist, Rev W A Fairy, pastor;
Baptist, Rev w E Hurt, pastor;
Episcopal, missionary service; Pres
byteriau, Rev E E Eryin,pastor. All
the churches have large attendance.
Black river is spanned by steel
bridge. The town has "a blocks of
concrete pavement. The streets are
level, clayed with sand, and are per-
fectly dry after heavy rain in ten
minutes.
A very commodious opera house
graces the town-The Thomas, Louis

ers. They have two banks with
large surpluses-Bank of Williams
