HOOVER Virginia Beach, Va.—Mrs. Her bert Hoover praised Girl Scouts for their part in national relief work and emphasized veracity as a natural virtue in an address be fore the national convention of Girl Scouts. Helped By Cardui Here’s the true story of how Car dui helped Mrs. H. E. Dunaway, of McComb, Miss., as written by herself: “I was sick and rather discour aged. I was so weak and thin, I was not able to do my work as it should be done. This made me fret a good deal, and did not help my condition. “I had pains across my back and lower part of my body. My nights were spent in rolling from one side of the bed to the other, hoping I would soon go to sleep. Then when morning would come, I would be just as tired as when I went to bed. A neighbor, seeing how badly I felt, told me to try Cardui. After I had taken one bot tle, I was much better. I kept on taking Cardui, and I was stronger and slept much better at night.” JBBb_ WHEN Your brakes are bad they are potential in struments of murder.
