WHY WOMEN
WRITE LETTERS
To Lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co.

Women who are well often ask care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" Are they truthful 2"
"Why do women write such letters? 2"
In answer we say that never have we
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent of the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink
ham s Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.
1t has relieved women from some of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis
placements, inflammation, liberation,
Irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.

ATE OUR CABBAGE
CRIED FOR MORE
SHIPMENT TO ATLANTA BRINGS
PROFIT OF s274 TO THE
COUNTY FARM.

Atlantians not only ate the Glynn
county cabbage sent to them but they
cried for more. c. d. Ogg. chairman
of the county commissioners, yester-
day received check Tor 9z74.01 which
represented the amount OF profit made
on the carload of cabbage which was
grown at the county farm. There was
about 10000 pounds of the cabbage
and the profit was approximately two
and three fourths cents per pound
The consignment of cabbage was
shipped several days ago and found
a ready market in Georgia's metropo-
lis. The Atlanta firm which handled
the shipment made quick payment and
asked for another shipment immedi-
ately but this cannot be made because
the cabbage already shipped was prac-
tically all that could be spared from
the farm
The entire amount was grown on
less than an acre of ground and the
quality was said to be fine. Although
no spraying was done, there were
very few wormy heads in the lot.

before attorneys and receivers for the

clared. Attorneys for the gas COM

cussed- Apparently no real action has
been taken. The matter will be fur

Destroy the Raiders
The most effective method of pre-
venting raids of this nature. as past
experience has fully dem nonstrated, is
to visit punishment or destruction on
the raiders It Is precisely this plan
which the United States desires to fol-

tention of infringing upon the sover-
eign rights of her neighbor, but which,
