"From the time I en
tered into womanhood
. . . I looked with dread
from one month to the
next I suffered with my
bade and bearing-down
pain, until life to me was
a misery. I would think
I could not endure the
pain any longer, and I
gradually got worse.
Nothing seemed to help
me until, one day,

Mrs. Jones goes on to
say, "and was not only
greatly relieved, but can f4
truthfully say that I have
not a pain. . .
"It has now been two
years since Hook Cardul,
and I am still in good
health. . . I would ad
vise any woman or girl

sufferer from any female

If you suffer pain caused
from womanly trouble, or

A DEAD STOMACH
Of Vfhat Use Is It?
Thousands? yes hundreds of thou
sands of people throughout America
are taking the slow death treatment
daily.
They are murdering their own stom
the best friend they have and In their
siblime ignorance they think they are
putting aside the laws of nature.
This Is no sensational statement: it
Is a startling fact, the truth of which
any honorable physician -will not de
ny. i These thousands of people are swal
lowing daily huge quantities of pepsin
and otherstrong digesters, made espe
clally to digest the food in the stom
ach without any aid at all from the
digestive membrane of the stomach.
Mi-on-a stomach tablets relieve dis
tressed stomach in five minutes; they
more. Taken regularly for a lew
weeks they build up the rundown stom-; x0. n township W. F. Litaker.

have been bred up for high yielding
qualities you cannot make the largest
possible yield although you have fer

they are one of the most important
factors in high yield.
tl will be Impossible to get first class
seed if yo udon't place your orders

grow enough seed to plant your entire

soldier, his complete foreign address
the name of the camp where he was
trained, whether he worked on the
farm before going to the, army, and
whether he will work on the farm if
he is released. The parents or guard
ian, wife or other relative should at
once inform the township Adviser of
these facts. It is not expected that
the township Advisers get out oyer the
township and find out about these men
but their relatives must furnish thexa
the information. Please attend to
this immediately. The soldiers may
not have worked on home farm. The
man who worked as a farm laborer
may be just as useful as a boy who
was working on his father's farm.
What is wanted is the names of the
farmer boys now in foreign service.
All the boys in the camps will soon be
at home. Some of the boys in foreign
service will soon be at home, but we
need, and must have more farm labor,
and we arte going to, ask for the re
