EARL HAYNES, Prop.
It Always Helps
says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman’s
tonic. She says further: “Before 1 began to use
Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, 1 began to-feel like a new woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework,
as well as run a big water mill.
1 wish every suffering woman would give
Cardui
The Woman’s Tonic
a trial. I still use Cardui when 1 feel a little bad,
and it always does me good.”
Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness,
tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman-
ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman’s
ionic. You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui
for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailing
women for more than fifty years.

CARD OF THANKS
We desire to express our ap-
preciation and extend our sincere
thanks for the many acts of lov-
ing kindness and sympathy
shown us during the last illness
and death of our beloved husband
and father. It is at such times
as these, when our hearts are
bleeding with grief and distress
that true friendship and love
manifest themselves, we can
never thank our friends enough
for what they have done.
We are especially grateful to
our physician, Dr. W. E. Sander-
son whom we feel sure did every
.tiling in his power to restore him
to health.

Scientists differ greatly as to the
earth's age. estimates varying from
20.000. 000 to 150.000,000 years. One
of the first estimates was that of .tohn
Phillips, who in 1860 based on a study
of stratified rock his assertion that
the figure lay somewhero ''between
38.000. 000 and 96.000,000 years.”
