A woman who is weak, nervous and sleep- less, and who has cold hands and feet, can not feel and act like a well person. Car- ter's Iron Pills equalize the circulation, remove nervousness, and give strength and rest.

Hs -How do yon know that ? She -Oh, I can easy tell, for there is not a young man in Dublin who has courage enough to kiss ayonng lady." In another column will be found the mar- riage of Mies Rumball, which took placeat her father's residence, in Clinton. This young lady is a native of Clinton and her removal to the "Sunny South" causes a blank in church and social circles that will not be easily filled. The groom is Mr J.
