Periodic
Pains.
Dr. Anti-Pain Pills
are a most remarkable remedy
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head-
ache, or any of the distress-
aches and pains that cause
women so much suffering.
As pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex-
condition, it i wrong
to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in-
of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as well as in the
fact that they will leave no dis-
agreeable after-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, chloral, cocaine or other
dangerous drugs.

There is no politics to speak of in

gatherings and later by district con-

one subject as they are on the

ton to ten cents and over, and
encouraged by this success, they are
determined to perfect their
on a business basis and be-
come the masters of the cotton
situation. That they can do this is
clearly demonstrated by what they
have already accomplished through
a partial and imperfect organization.
The picnics, meetings and

no doubt result in most perfect
business of the farmers
