24o POUND PIGS

With corn above SO cts. hogs eat
their heads off very quickly The
hog that takes two or three months
to get on full feed never brings you
profit.
It is better for the loaf pans to be
narrow. This will insure thorough
baking.
When you are ready to put your
shoats on feed, begin with the B. a.
Thomas Hog Medicine. Use regularly
and watch your shoats round out into
fat hogs in nine months-hogs going
well over 200 pounds and as high as
24O pounds. Figure the average feed
ing and you will see why the B. A.
Thomas medicine is good investment
Try feeding out your hogs on this
plan and if you are not more than
pleased, we will refund the cost of
the medicine.

I relieve the distressing aches, pains and
misery peculiar to the diseases of wo-
men, readthetestimony of these women
who have tried it and are glad to tell
others what it has done for them. The
only interest they have in the matter
is that which any true woman feels in
helping to relievethe sufferings of other
women. You can believe them.
Mrs. j. T. Lee, Milstead, Ga, had
female complaint for years. Three bot
Ties of STELLA-VITAE cured her, she
said, and added,"I am certainly thank
full for this great female tonic" Mrs.
Paralee Frazier, Longview, Tex, ex-
pressed appreciation of STELLA-VITAE
in these words: cannot say too much
for this wonderful medicine. [ had
taken other female medicines for two
years with no good results. am truly
grateful for the good STELLA-VITAE
has done me-" Mrs. Sandy Withers,
ofGreensboro, Ala, was terrible suf-
ferer from female trouble-and only a
woman knows what that means! Her
condition got so bad her pains threw
her into spells like fits. Her husband
feared she would lose her mind. The
Greensboro doctors pronounced her in
durable. Then somebody suggested
that she take VITAE. She did
SO. The first dose lightened her spells.
STELLA-VITAE is perfectly harm
less compound and it not only alleviates
, woman's pain,A but builds up her
health; it stimulates her appetite, aids
digestion, quiets her nerves and clears
her complexion. 1t improves her per-
sonal appearance.
All dealers sell Stella-Vitae, and are
authorized to return the money paid
for the first bottle it does not benefit.

Foreman is so modest that nobody
knew he was famous motion pic

Camp Gordon introduced him by his
real entitlements. He is carried away
with army life, regarding it as the
finest experience a man can have.
Born in Texas, typically southern in
manners and speech, he feels quite at
home in Atlanta, and has made many
friends here.
About year ago Foreman enlisted
along with a number of other motion
picture actors from the Lasky Studio,
and went to Camp Kerney, near Los
Angeles, as private. In short while
he advanced to the rank of a corporal,
then was made sergeant, and then
was recommended for admisshion into
the Officers Training Camp, after
which he was transferred to Camp
Gordon and took his training here, at
the close of which he recently received
his commission as lieutenant. He has

wheat saving have shown what democ.
racy can do. For several months the
household consumption Of wheat has been
less than so per cent Of normal, while
in the immediate past the whole country
has been content to do with only about
IS or 40 per cent of normal wheat re-
quirements. The result has been that we
were able to export l4l, 100000 bushels
Of wheat, much Of it as -four, that other
wise, in the face of a short harvest, we
would not have been able to send over
seas This wheat was the salvation of
the allies, and each individual who helped
to attain this result may have in some
degree the same consciousness of duty
well done and of actual achievement as
have the soldiers in the trenches.
What has been done with wheat can
be done with sugar. 1t is up to the indi-
