“Built Me Up”
“I USED Cardui for years
* and it did me more good
than any medicine I ever
used," writes Mrs. M. G
Ragsdale, of Fort Towson,
Okla. “I used to suffer with
womanly trouble that weak
ened me until I was a mere
shadow, nervous, and could
not sleep. I did not feel like
I could live.
“It seemed that nothing
helped me till I heard of
Cardui and began to use it It
strengthened me and, as ’twas
recommended to do, it regu
lated and built me up till 1
was like another woman.”
If you are weak, run-down
and feel that you need a tonic,
take Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, the tonic about which
you have always heard, the
tonic that helps weak women
regain their strength.
Cardui acts on the womanly
system and helps relieve pain
and discomfort due to female
ailments.
Try Cardui, today, for your
trouble.

PEKING, Dec. 4.—Gen. Wu Pei Fu
the military power of northern China
was told today that he was equally
rcslbnsible with the Ghinese gov
ernment, fo rthe safety and release
of American and other foreign mis
sionaries held captive.
These' missionaries were kidnapped
by the bandit army of thirty thousand
men in the Honan province, on Nov.
16th, and although release has been
demanded, no action has been forth
coming.
This warning came from the Pe
king diplomatic representatives of
America, Great Britain, France Italy
and Sweden, who telegraphed the ul
timatum through the Chinese for
eign office.
Belief is expressed that this latest
move by the (foreign ^uvernment*
will bring the release of the mission
aries.
