WOMEN DOING WAR WORK.

During the war women were called
into almost every vocation in life, and
right well did they assume the re-
sponsibilities and fill such positions.
In many instances, however, their
strength has been overtaxed. and such
ailments as arc peculiar to their sex
have fastened themselves upon them.
Such women should remember there is
a tried and true remedy for their
troubles in Lydia f. Pinkham s Vege-
table Compound, which for more than
three generations has been relieving the
women of America from some of the
west forms OF female ills.

It's positively marvellous how speedily it

three days at most, in cases with pro-

treatments and operations, really wonderful
results have been accomplished.
The author of this amazing discovery de-

Reception to Pupils and Teachers

A hearty reception was given to the
teachers and new pupils of the junior
senior high school in Seminary hall
Tuesday evening, Sept. 16, at which
over 100 We're present. The large at
tendance showed the interest taken by
the citizens of the West River valley
IN this school and their readiness to
back up the school board and teachers
IN an effort to raise the standard of
this school to the first class and so at
tract larger number of pupils and in
crease its efficiency.
The hearty welcome and assurances
of cooperation by those present was
tittingly voiced in a short address by
the pastor of the Baptist church, Rev
j. H. Blackburn. Principal Salmon re-
sponded by stating the teachers hearty
appreciation of the warm welcome Civ
en- them and the course of strict dici-
pine they intended to maintain, the
high standard of scholarship they aimed
at and the guarded social pleasures
which were not onlv to be allowed but
encouraged. On the other hand play
IS not to be merely for amusement, but
also a means of promoting more en-
thusiastic and efficient school work.
"A solo by Mr.. Northup, a duet by
Misses Noreross and Greenwood, reci-
tation by Mrs. Northup, charades by
the sophomores and juniors, the differ
ent class yells and the yell of the entire
school, followed by the serving of ice
cream to all present, served not only to
make the evening one of pleasure to
all but to bring the people, teachers and
pupils into closer fellowship with each
other.

Even chronic cases of 20 to 80 years
standing, with profuse bleeding,
have been completely cured in
from three to ten days.

No discovery of recent years in the field
OF medicine has. caused such stir amongst
the medical profession as the recent discov
cry that piles can be successfully treated and
cured at home by a wonderful prescription
known to druggists as Miro Pile Remedy.
1t has been proved that so-called external
remedies applied inserted into the rectuni
cannot cure piles and at the best only give
temporary relief. This is also true of sur
after formation. but in no wise acts on the
source of the trouble.
This prescription, although taken internally,
is not dgested in the stomach. but is rapidly
passed unchanged to the intestines in a
