This Kind.
Lamar, Ark.—Mrs. Edith Seeman,
here, recently made the following
statement describing her experience in
the use of Cardui:
“I had pain in my back and sides;
had sick headaches and my nose would
bleed. I couldn’t sit up at all.
“My mother gave me Cardui. I took
sbout a half bottle and at this ... 1
was able to get up-and help with the
work. Next time I took it again, and
now, after taking two bottles, I do not
have any trouble at all at this time.
I gained, my skin cleared up, I am
healthy and strong.
“My mother took Cardui for a weak,
run-down condition. It did her more
%‘ood for weakness and nervousness
han anz medicine she has ever taken,
She took six bottles in all. We recom
mend it and certainly know its worth."

¥ ——
Returning from night services at
Bethel church last night where
Rev. D. A, Landrum preached, he
and Mrs, Landrum and Mr. W. P.
Fountain were severely hurt when

and both Rev. and Mrs. Landrum
were seriously hurt, While Mr. Foun
tain came out with less severe in

Mrs. Landrum warned her hus

ing. As she did so he ifiought he
was running into an embakment, he
.stated, and snatched the wheel so
that he immediately threw the car in
