The Creator has endowed every woman with beauty and every woman in good health, •who is of a cheerful nature, is beautiful and comely to look upon. A clear, fresh, wholesome look is the result of the pos- : session of good health and no woman can be beautiful and attractive without good health. The dull, dead, gnawing pain, the sense of nervousness, weakness, oppres sion and discouragement, the tired, listless, languid feeling, the shooting pains, the aching head the pain in the back all these are of dull, leaden complexions, unnatural ii flushings,dark circles under theeyes,bum- I ors, eruptions, black heads, lustreless eyes i and other disfigurements which divest i women of their natural gift of beauty, i Why be homely when you can be ji beautiful and attractive?

The iiuest cherries and largest cherry trees in the known world grow on the li mous Cherry Mountain near Ellenboro, N. C. For the past few years trees from this famous orchard have been transplante in the surrounding country and have proved a surprise to the people by the: rapid growth, enormous size and delicious fruit. The trees grow very tall an spread out long heavy limbs and are filled with large black heart-shaped cherrie As many as five bushels have been gathered from one tree. The fruit is very fin in flavor and suitable for canning, pies, drying, etc., and ripening as they do i May and .1 une they come in when other fruit is scarce and sell readily at ten cent per quart. Besides their great value as fruit trees they make the finest of shac trees. Mr. John T. l'atrick, Chief Industrial Agent of the Seaboard Air Lint after examining them and seeiog their great value as a fruit and bhaae tree says "These tree 3 trees are rapid growers, they make a good shade and yield an abui daut crop of large black cherries that find a ready market. One thousand tret will in five years from planting yield a revenue to the town that puts them ot sufficient to pay town taxet, keep up the streets and work the country roac exding into the town." "It would be a big advertisement that will be worth thousands of dollars tot able to say 'our town has fruitbearing trees enough on its side walks and publi parks to pay the expenses cf the town and build good county roads,' and will giv you a world wide reputation for thrift, euterprise and good judgment." Mr. Patrick did not only talk but acted on his judgment and we furnished t him and his agents over six thousand trees during '97-"J8 season. The trees can be set at any time from October 20th to March the 20th and it: a very rare thing for one to die. So rare that we will gladly send another in plac of any that die the first season, that has been carefully set out. We carefully pac all trees so as to arrive in good condition. We can furnish them either by ma or express oue to three years old. Small trees grow off better and will make arge tree as quick as a ten foot oue, but we will furnish them any size up to te feet high. We prepay all trees when cash accompanies the order.
