johannesburg, S. Africa, Sept. IA.
This portion of South Africa Is fast
becoming an important trading point
for American goods. The natives are
not an Insignificant source of this
trade. Cotton goods, in particular
are in special demand among
them. About 100000 worth of
business was done last year by the
American trade agencies. American
Negroes could do a big business
among the natives if they would es-
tablish agencies and put themselves
in a position where they could .ex-
tend reasonable periods of credit. The
growing color prejudice is doing
much to increase race consciousness
among the natives.

The campaign recently inaugurated
lin Texas in the interest of better
health for women through the Stella
Vitae treatment has started off with
a vengeance and is rapidly spreading
throughout the entire state. Nothing
like it has ever been seen before.
Reports indicate that women every
..x5ere are quickly recognizing the OPP
portunits Of overcoming Female Suf-
fering," offered through Stella Vitae
and are taking advantage of the
chance to acquaint themselves with
knowledge concerning the diseases of
their sex.
In commenting upon the remarkable
interest being displayed by the public
in the Stella Vitae health campaign,
officials Of the Thacher Laboratories,
who have exclusive control of the
preparation Of Stella Vitae, said:
at is only natural that such success
should be realized once the women Of
Indiana were correctly Informed re-
gsrding Female Diseases When it
is realized to what extent ignorance
regarding this class Of disease has
existed among women, it is. easy to see
why the suffering has been so gen
eraI.
Hours might be consumed in de-
scribing this universal ignorance Of
the troubles that are fast uniting
women for the high duties of their
sex. 1t is enough. however, to know
that this lack of knowledge has been
so great that even the subjects of
these maladies themselves have been

so ignorant OF the true nature Of their
troubles that they have been neither
prepared to seek relief in the proper
direction nor to submit to the remedy,
il it CHANGED to be proposed.
"But with the perfection of Stells
Vitae came publicity, and women be-
gan to be interested in learning more
about such things and taking proper
measures to overcome the miserable
troubles that cause so much suffering
and unhappiness to their sex.
1T is we'll TO remember in connec-
ton with this campaign, however,
that it is not claimed that Stella
Vitae will produce results in every
case. 1t may be that the trouble is
so deep seated and of such long stand
ing that no medicine can do much
good. Or it may be necessary to re-
sort to surgical treatment. But in
the vast majority of troubles classed
under the general head of Female
Diseases the Stella Vitae treatment
has been remarkably effective in aid
ing Nature to throw off the symptoms
of disease and restore the patient to
her normal health, strength and nat
ural beauty"
So, in view of its phenomenal sue
cess, we say to women in Texas !:
IF Stella Vitae will save suffering.
build up wasted health and restore
the roses to pale cheeks and the
springiness TO tagging steps, it is
your positive duty to keep this great
remedy in your home at all times"
Note-Stella Vitae may be obtained
from any druggist and is sold upon a
positive guarantee to bring relief or
the purchase price will be refunded.
