For
Weak
Women
In use for over 40 years!
Thousands of voluntary
letters from women, tell
ing of the good Cardul
has done them. This is
the best proof of the value
of Cardul. It proves that
Cardui is a good medicine
for women.
There are no harmful or
habit - forming drugs in
Cardui. It is composed
only of mild, medicinal
ingredients, with no bad
after-effects.
TAKE
The Woman's Tonic
You can rely on Cardui.
Surely it will do for you
what it has done for so
many thousands of other
womenl It should help.
“I was taken sick,
seemed to be . . .
writes Mrs. Mary E.Veste,
of Madison Heights, Va.
“I got down so weak,
could hardly walk . . .
just staggered around.
... I read of Cardui,
and after taking one bot
tle, or before taking quite
all, l felt much better. I
took 3 or 4 bottles at
that time, and was able to
do my work. 1 take it in
the spring when run
down. 1 had no appetite,
and 1 commenced eating.
It is the best tonic I ever
saw.” Try Cardui.

ELBERTON FIRM
GUILTY HOARDING
SUBJECT TO HEAVY FINE
Had Too Much Flour Under
Food Control Law
Atlanta, Ga., March 26.—Under
two charges being made tonight by
the federal food administration for
Georgia, Dr. A. M. Soule, the Cope
land Grocery Cos., of Elberton, is sub
ject to a total penalty of SIO,OOO
and its members to four years in the
federal prison.
Secret service men acting for the
federal food administration tonight
reported the result of investigation
made by them that the Elberton firm
is guilty of both hoarding and profi
teering and dsicovery of the fact that
they have on hand at this time a to
tal of 5,380 barrels of flour at an es
timated cost to them of approximate
ly $60,000.
The food control rules prohibit the
having on hand by anybody of more
than thirty days’ supply of flour at
any one time. Secret service men in
their report estimate this quantity to
be a normal supply for this concern
for twenty-six months. Under the
act of congress violation of the regu
lations in covering this case subject
the violator to a penalty of $5,000
or two years in prison, either or both,
for each offense. Two offenses are
charged in this case, which is the lar
gest and most important brought in
the southeast since the enactment of
the new law.

ARRNGETO SHIP CATTLE
FROM WISCONSIN SOON
Several weeks ago about seventy
Butts county farmers contracted,
through Farm Agent J. H. Blackwell,
for Holstein, Jersey and Guernsey
cattle to be bought in Wisconsin. Ar
rangements are now being made to
have these cattle shipped, and Mr.
Blackwell wants to know the number
of people who still want to secure
some of the cows. It is necessary that
he be notified at once, so that ship
ping arrangements can be made.
Persons taking these cattle will be
required to make a deposit in the
bank.
The following scale of prices are
announced: Heifers four to six
months old, $25 to S4O; open heifers,
S4O to S6O; bred heifers, S6O to S9O,
depending upon age, size and quality.
Registered cattle will be somewhat
higher.
In case a sufficient number of cat
tle are contracted for, an experienced
cattleman will be sent to Wisconsin
to arrange about shipment. Those
who want to secure some of these an
imals should notify Mr. Blackwell at
once.
FORCEPS WERE SOWN UP IN
TIFTON WOMAN’S STOMACH
Left There When Operated on in an
Atlanta Sanitarium
Tifton, Ga.—Mrs. J. D. Young, of
Tifton, has gone through an unusual
and very trying experience. Two
years ago she was operated on at an
Atlanta sanitarium for tumors of the
stomach. Since that time she has suf
fered what was apparently a return
of the trouble until the attending
physicians found another operation
necessary, and this was performed
yesterday.
When he incision was made a pair
of artery forceps was found in her
stomach. These were between six
and seven inches long and had been
left in the cavity when she was ope
rated on two years ago. The point
had worked hrough the large intes
tine but the handle caught.
Mrs. Young had suffered great pain
and that she lived was little short of
a miracle. Since the operation she
appears to be on the way to recovery.
A few such cases have been report
ed from time to time, but were large
ly regarded as more or less imagi
nary. This is an actual occurrence
and can be substantiated.

6 PHILADELPHIANS SAT DOWN
TO DINNER AT SI,OOO A PLATE
Guests Received From Host Plate of
Gold as Follows
Nineteen hundred years ago the
Apostle James delivered a terrific in
dictment against certain persons
when he said: “Your riches are cor
rupted and your garments moth-eat
en. Your gold and silver are canker
ed and the rust of them shall be wit
ness against you. Ye have lived in
pleasure on the earth and been wan
ton.” Applying the quotation to the
six men who sat dow nto dinner in
hiladelphia at SI,OOO a plate and
received from the host a plate of
gold, Commerce and Finance says:
“The indictment drawn by the im
petuous ‘Son of Thunder’ 1,900 years
ago holds today as it did then. What
a pity with tens of thousands hun
gering, tens of thousands ragged in
the winter’s cold, tens of thousands
suffering, no thaught of charity
should enter the minds of these six
men. What a pity with the world in
agony brutal money should so af
front a people dedicating their all to
the cause of oppressed humanity.”

Not strange for the Studebaker because the bubs are

Notice the hubs on the next Studebaker you pass on the

And in these hubs are set the famous Studebaker slope

greater production of poultry meat
and eggs. The average size of the
farm flock in the United States is 40
hens. It is estimated that an average
of 100 hens would increase the poul
try supply 6,500,000 pounds this com
ing year. Some farms can have sev
eral hundred, while others should
keep less. There should be at least
enough to produce poultry and eggs
for home consumption and thereby
add o the profit of the farm. A pound
of poultry meat can be produced
more quickly and with less cost for
feed than any other. The average
chick will increase its weight from 20
to 25 times or more in the first twelve
weeks! Can you beat it with hogs,
or cattle, or sheep? Do you wonder
that the government is urging maxi

TAKE CHILDREN OUT of DANGER
If you saw a child on a railroad
track you would endeavor to remove
the little one from danger. When a
child is “snuffling” or coughing, isn’t
it your duty to get him out of danger
of severe consequences? Foley’s Hon-i

colds, croup and whooping cough.

The firing squad for the German
spies in this country, a coat of tar
and feathers for the I. W. W., and
the chain gang for the loafers
wouldn’t be a bad plan of action right
now.
