lessness, the growing Irrrtableness and
nervousness, the cold feet and hands, the
lack OF appetite; all these symptoms are
plain monitors of a deranged stomach,
and given a general name is nervous de-
bility
Many remedies can be obtained but
the best, In the opinion Of most people is
Plant Juice, the new herbal stomach
medicine. Thousands of people have been
restored TO health by the use of this
famous preparation. Among these is Mrs.
Fannie Gring, a popular lady of Shilling
ton, Pa, who has a number of friends In
this city. She stated:
~ took Plant Juice because of the
wonderful benefit it worked right In our
own family, as my mother and husband
had been restored TO health by il. Nv
mother had been In very low condition
and was not able 10 eat anything what
ever: she would be in agony from gas
after a few mouthfuls of food; she was
always constipated and in highly ner-
vous state so that she could not sleep at
night She was so weak that she could
not leave her chair where she sat on the
piazza all day. We were all discouraged
as she had taken a number of medicines
and treatments and didn't get any better
We had heard so much about Plant Juice
that | got a bottle for my mother, and
now she sleeps soundlv all night, has
fine appetite and is able to be up and
around on her feet again. My husband
and myself found Plant Juice the only
remedy for stomach trouble after wears Of
searching and we are now enjoying the
best Of health. l do not hesitate to say
what splendid medicine Plant Juice is
and to recommend it to my friends"
The Plant Juice man is at The Miller
Drug Store, 404-406 Market street,
where he is daily meeting the local pub
lie and introducing and explaining the
merits of this remedy. Free samples

As a further evidence of the ten
dency of the legislatures to provide
what we would term ''wet nursing"
for certain of the people an act was
passed in 1915, we understand, pro-
v::>''::.:::g for the segregation of the
races working in textile manufacture
ing esta blishments, and under its pro-
visions the attorney general says that
even the mills can not employ negro
women to do the sweeping in the
mills, and Mr.. Harris says that all
violations of the act shall be prose-
cuted.
This would be good law to repeal.
Just as we'll say that the good house
wives of Newberry should not be al
lowed to employ negro women to
come into their homes to do the
housecleaning and the sweeping and
the cooking while the truth of the
matter is all of them are anxious to
have these colored women when they
can get any that are willing to work.
We fail to see the common sense
or the good of any such law. The
people who work in the textile insti-
tutions are perfectly willing to have
these colored women do the sweep
ing. In fact, we should suspect at
this time the mills will find it a little
difficult to get any one else to do the
sweeping. We fail to see the good
to be accomplished by saying that a
negro woman can not do the sweep
ing in a textile manufacturing estab-
lishment where white people are en-
ployed. But that is the law and Mr.
Harris and his agents are prosecuting
the officers of such institutions where
they are employing negro women to
sweep out the dirt and the result
very likely will be that many of the
floors that need sweeping will go un-
swept for lack Of labor to do the
work.
