You Need a Tonic
There are times in every woman's life when she
needs a tonic to help her over the hard places.
When that time comes to vou. vou know what tonic
to take Cardui, the woman's tonic. Cardui is com
posed, of purely vegetable ingredients, which act
gently,1 yet surely, on the weakened womanly organs,
and helps build them back to strength and health.
It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak,
ailing women in its past half century of wonderful
rv'sufcess, and it will do the same for yon.
You can t maxe a mistaxe in taxing
it. . -

The federal census bureau has just
issued a bulletin dealing with Pitt
county homes and their owners. In

the cellar, called on Alexander often
and the big twirler responded with a
victory almost every time.
WTiich causes us to pause and think
what- might have happened. Just
suppose for instance, that Tom Sea
ton hadn't jumped to the Brooklyn
Federals. Seaton, with his class,
would have added at least twelve
more wins to the Philadelphia club's
standing. And those same victories,
marking off a like number of defeats,
would have put the Phillies out in
front of the Braves, where they
could not have been headed.
Another thing that figured strong
in the slump of the Phillies this year
was the absence of Shortstop Mickey
Doolan. He.too, fell for the big sal
ary inducements held out by the Feds
and Baltimore got him. Dooin wa
in sore straits to plug the gap left

three months of the season he kept

Reports now have it that Dooin is

seems to be founded on fact.

There are 1,097 farm dwellings unin

a Dangerous Disease Hyomei
is the Effective Remedy.
Catarrh, which is indicated by
sniffling, frequent colds and crusts in
the nose is a serious disease and if
not checked surely spreads to the deli
cate lining of the air passages, and
frequently destroys the hearing.
To cure catarrh you must have
something that will,quickly reach the
diseased tissues, kill the germs, and
drive out the poison.
Hyomei is just such a remedy. Be
ing a mixture of antiseptic oils that
you breathe through a small inhaler
its health-restoring medication can
not help going direct to the raw and
inflamed lining of the nose and throat,
quickly relieving that choked-up feel
ing, stopping the unclean discharges,
and healing the sore spots you
breathe freely. Even the worst cases
respond at once.
There is nothing for the treatment
of catarrh ills that is easier, more
pleasant or so satisfying as Hyomei.
