Life
Was a
Misery
Mrs. F. M. Jones, of
Palmer, Okla., writes:
“ From the time I civ
tered into womanhood
... I looked with dread
from one month to the
next. I suffered with my
back and bearing-down
pain, until life to me was
a misery. I would think
I could not endure the
pain any longer, and I
gradually got worse. . .
Nothing seemed to help
me until, one day, . • .
I decided to
TAKE
Woman’s Tonic
“ 1 took four bottles,”
Mrs. Jones rocs on to
say, ‘‘and was not only
greatly relieved, but can
truthfully say that 1 have
not a pain. . .
“ It has now been two
years since 1 tookCardui,
and I am still in Rood
health. . . 1 would ad
vise any woman or girl
to use Cardui who is a
sufferer from any female
trouble.”
If you suffer pain caused
from womanly trouble, or
if you feel the need of a
good strengthening tonic
to build up your run-down
system, take the advice
of Mrs. Jones. TryCar
dui. It helped her. We
believe it will help you.

It Costs to Win, but More to Lose
That sums it all up in eight words of one syllable-
II costs to win, but more to lose
What will it cost to win?
Probably an army of 5,000,000
men.
The greatest navy we ever had.
The heaviest income taxes any
country ever paid.
Immense profits taxes.
Goalless days in winter, meat'
iess and wheatless every
week.
It is costing us over $1,000,000
every hour now to win, and it
will cosL us more than that be
fore we have won.
A fearful price to win, you ex
claim.
It is a big price to win.
But that price is small compar
ed to what it will tax you and
other Americans to lose this
war.
What will that tax be?
And that would not be the greatest cost of losing
this war. : :
We have omitted the greatest cost of all—the sac
rifice of human lives, the end of our democratic
freedom, the closing of our book of national inde
pendence.
This war can be won, but not without money,
to purchase all that is needed to make victory cer
tain. LIBERTY BONDS will provide this money.

The fololiwng is a typical telegram,
sent to the father of a soldier in a
southern camp:
“Have been discharged. Coming
home. Going to Atlanta through
country tonight. Please wire me S6O
at Atlanta so I may pay for uniform
and come home direct. Wave identi
fication as I am not knowm in Atlanta.
To Shart with, we w r ould have to
pay all the cost of the war itself,
just as if we won.
What else?
An indemnity to Germany twice
as great as the war Germany.
Anything else?
The loss of the Monroe Doctrine.
What next?
All South America Prussianized;
And every island possession of
the United States.
Anything more?
German dominion in Mexico.
Is that ail?
No. Germany would insist upon
a neutralized Panama Canal for
which you have paid $400,000,000
Wire cash quick so I can get it tomor
row morning.”
Before being complied with, any
request for money to be sent under
such conditions should verified by
a letter or telegram to the command
ing officer of the camp in which the
man whose name is signed to the re
quest is stationed.
