stay sometimes two weeks at a time.
"I could not work, and Just
dragged around the house.
“I got very thin. I went from a
hundred and twenty-six pounds
down to less than a hundred.
"My mother had long been a user
of Cardui, and she knew what a
good medicine it was for this trou
ble. So she told me to get some
and take it.
"I sent to the store for Cardui,
and before I had taken the first
bottle I began to improve. My side
hurt less, and I began to mend in
health. X took the second bottle,
and felt much better. I followed
this by two more bottles.
"Cardui acted as a fine tonic. I
do not feel like the same person.
I am well now, and still gaining.
My sides do not trouble me at all.”

NEW
YEARS
GREETINGS
i "•
The old year has about
reached the end of its
trail, and 1929, like a can
didate waiting to be ini
tiated into a secret order is
about to be admitted.
We stand in wonder and
anticipation on the thres
hold of the New Year and
wonder what is behind the
door which bears the name
plate “1929.”
Let’s all be truthful in
1929; lying is a fault in a
boy; an art in a bachelor, a
necessity to a married man
: and a duty to a diplomat.
I We know of only one fam
ily in ... where the male is
the boss—and he isn't four
years old yet. That’s the
truth.
Here’s wishing you all a
Prosperous 1929.
