WHAT SAVED
her LIFE
Mrs. Martin Tells About a Painful
Experience that Might Have
Ended Seriously.

Rivesville, w. Va.-Mrs. Dora Martin,
in a letter from Rivesville, writes:
For three years, suffered with wo-
manly troubles, and had pains in my
back, and side. was nervous and
could not sleep at night.
The doctor could not help me. He
said would have to be operated on be-
fore I could get better. I thought I
would try using Cardui.
Now, / am entirely well.
am sure Cardui saved my life. I
will never be without Cardui in my
home. recommend it to my friends. !"
For fifty years, Cardui has been re-
lieving pain and distress caused by wo-
manly trouble. 1t will surely help you.
1t goes to the spot-reaches the
trouble-relieves the symptoms, and
drives away the cause.
II you suffer from any symptoms OF
womanly trouble, take Cardui.

it. Get a bottle from him today.

that an election for submitting this
to the people be called. We think that
legislation along the line of having
wide tires on all vehicles would prove
of untold value to our road beds.
The following resolutions were Of
fered and adopted by the grand jury.
First: That it is the sense of this
grand jury that the law relative to
automobiles in Georgia and Sumter
county be more rigidly enforced. The
provision relative to children under
age driving machines, regarding lights
and reckless driving at crossings, are
frequently violated, and we think
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1912-06-15

should be more rigidly enforced. W.
recommend that the public-those who
operate autos and those who operate
other vehicles-study the law as tc
the rights of both parties on tha
highways.
Second: That it is the sense of this
grand jury and we believe a MAORI
ty of the taxpayers of Sumter county
and of Georgia, that the fee system
as now practiced in our state in set
Ting with our county officers. should
be changed and all officers be placed
on regular salary basis.
We recommend that our representa-
tives in the legislature take notice OF
the growing demand all over the state
to stop this system and enact the nee
essary measures to make the change
Third: We do not feel that there
is much use for the Office of treasurer
of the county, as the duties of this
Office are very light at cost of some
three thousand dollars annually to
the county. We think any one of our
banks would gladly give the neces-
5ary bond and handle the account free
of charge to the county. We there
fore recommend the adjustment oil
this office, and suggest that our mem
bers of the legislature be notified
that it is the sense of this grand jury
that special legislation be enacted do
ing away with it in Sumter county.
Fourth: 1t has come to our ears
that our county is becoming more and
more overrun with vagrancy, and
th2t our farmers are frequently call |
Ing on laborers in various towns in |
Sumter county to work for them, and |
the reply is they don't have to work on
farm, and so they continue in APP. |
parent idleness, we therefore ask that
our county sheriff and other officers
exercise renewed diligence in prose-
cutting such class of idlers for vagran ]
cy. I
We recommend that Mr.. w. T. Nc
Nath be appointed to fill the office of j
notary public and ex-officio justice of
the peace of the 7S9th district, G. NJ,
of Sumter county, beginning June 9
1912, and ending June 8, 1916.
Mr. J. l. Hitler and r. J. Wade are
elected as members of the county
board of education.
We desire to express our thanks to
his honor, Judge IA. Littlejohn, for
his able charge to this body, and also
to Solicitor j. R. Williams for his
courteous service to us.
We recommend that copy of these
be published in the
Americas Times-Recorder and the
South Georgia Progress.
We have engaged Miss Evelyn Crew
to make typewriter copy of these
and recommend that her
bill for the work be paid.
Respectfully submitted.

are in a bad state of repair. Many
places along the public highways are

be to the interest of the public at

as are needed before any grading or
building is done by the county gang

We attach hereto the annual report of
the county school commissioner, as
follows:
To the Honorable Grand Jury of Sum-
ter County, Gentlemen:
I respectfully submit my annual re-
port OF the operations of the public
schools of Sumter county for the year
1911.
We had during the year sixty-four
schools Of this number twenty-siX
were white and thirty-eight colored
The white schools run from eight to
nine months, being supplemented in
most cases by the patrons and the To-
cal tax The enrolment of pupils was
1882 The average attendance 84o.
This shows that eighty-two per sent at
tended the schools during the year.
The colored schools were run six
months, except few in local tax dis
,tricts. BY the aid of what tax was
collected from colored taxpayers, the
schools in local tax districts were run
seven months. The enrolment during
the year was 1926. The average at
tendance was 1855. This shows ff-
ty per cent. attended school during
the year. The schools were taught
by thirty-three white and thirty-nine
colored The teachers as a rule did
good and efficient service and were

WOMAN'S MOST
\ SUCCESSFUL
~~~
MEDICINE
Known All Over The World
Known Only For The
Good 1t Has Done.

We know of no other medicine which
has been so successful in relieving the
suffering of women, or received so many
genuine testimonials, as has Lydia Z.
Plnkham's Vegetable Compound.
In nearly every community you will
md women who have been restored to
health by this famous medicine. Almost
every woman you meet knows of the
great good it has been doing among
suffering women for the past 80 years.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds OF
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health, in which many openly state
over their own signatures that they have
ffeegained their health by taking Lydia
L. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
many of whom state that it has saved
Them from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is made from roots and herbs,
and is perfectly harmless.
The reason why it is so successful is
because it contains ingredients which ac'
