ment relieved me for a while, but I was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.

There is no business that can-
not be increased by advertising.
No class of advertising pays as
well as a well written news-
paper ad. There is no work you
could do that would bring you as
great returns as to use thirty
minutes each day in the study of
advertising, if you are in busi-
ness.

At last, my husband got me a bottle of

can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work."
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don't give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman's tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recom-
mend it Begin taking Cardui today.

years of my life are before the

Every growing ambitious town
is composed of three elements.
Those who work pariotically, vig-
orously and intelligontly for the
advancment of the town, those
who are in a state of apathy or
indifference, and those who take
a curious deiignt in discouraging
the efforts of others by ridicule,
and by a persistent denial that
any progress can or has been
accomplished, and by boasting
of every other town besides our
own. The last class are called
croakers, but they are really
something worse, for their op.
sition does not arise simply from
dispondency but from that un-
enviable spirit that will neither
act itself or suffer others to act.
You need not be an "ad writer"
