Douglasvilie, Tex. — “Five
years ago I was caught in the
rain at the wrong time,” writes
Edna Rutherford, of' Douglas-
villie, "and from that time, was
taken with dumb chills and fe
vers, and suffered more than I
can tell. I tried everything that
I thought would help, and had
four doctors, but got no releif. I
took (^ardui, the woman’s tonic.
Now, I feel better than in many
months. ’ ’ Cardui does one thing
and does it well. That’s the se
cret of its 50 years of success.

Bad Fire in P!ant of Mills at
Randleman.
Randleman, Sept. 5.~ The dye
house, a part of the Deep River
mills plant, was burned this
morning about 6 o’clock. The
damage, including building and
machinery will reach about $15,
000. Expert machinists had just
finished placing a lot of new ma
chinery in the building which
was destroyed. The fire will not
cause the mills to stop. The au
thorities announce that the mills
will resume operation at noon.
It is reported that gum-chew
ing will prevent seasickness.
Probably some gum manufactur
er reported it.
Terrlbie Picture 01 Suffering
Clinton, Ky.—Mrs. M.. C. Me
Elroy, in a letter from Clinton,
wiites:“ For six years, I was a
sufferer from female troubles. I
could not eat, and could not stand
on my feet, without suffering
great pain. I had lost hope. After
using Cardui a week, I began to
improve. Now I feel better than
in six years.” Fifty years of,
success in actual practice, is
positive proof, furnished by those
who have used it, that Cardui
can always be relied on for re
lieving female weakness and
disease. Try Cardui, today, now!
Spit, m, Fft.
Hines, Ala.—In a letter from
this place, Mrs. Eula Mae Brad
ley says; ‘ ‘I used to spit up all I
ate. I was tired and sleepy all
the time. My head ached, and
I could hardly drag around. Sinice
taking Cardui, this has entirely
quit, and now I feel quite fit.”
Mrs. Bradley suffered frohi ner
vous indigestion. Cardui builds
;j the nervous system, and
strengthens the womanly consti
tution. That’s why Cardui help
ed Mrs. Bradley and why it will
help you. Try it.
