IIS LADY’S
GOODi APPETITE
Mrs. Hansen, In a Letter From
Mobile, Tells How She Gained It
Mobile, Ala.—“l suffered for seven
years, with womanly trouble," writes
Mrs. Sigurd Hansen in a letter from
this city. “I felt weak and always had
a headache and was always going to
the doctor. At last I was operated on,
and felt better, but soon I had the
same trouble.
My husband asked me to try Cardul.
I felt better after the first bottle, and
now, I have a good appetite and sleep
well. I feel fine, and the doctor tells
me I am looking better than he ever
saw me.”
If you are sick and miserable, and
suffer from any of the pains due to
womanly trouble—try Cardui.
Cardui is successful because It is
composed of ingredients that have been
found to act curatively on the woman
ly constitution.
For more than fifty years, it has been
used by women of all ages, with great
success. Try it. Your druggist sells it

“Relatives and friends of Rev. Sam
C. Dean, former pastor of the First
Baptist church here, who has myste
riously disappeared in the west are
greatly disturbed and are doing every
thing possible to locate him. The last
heard from hint he was in Kansas City
He is thought to be there or between
that city and the Pacific coast.
Great anxiety is felt, as it is feared
that lie is ill, and unable to communi
cate with his friends. The last letter
received from him stated that he was
suffering from nervous breakdown.
“Letters postmarked Kansas City
and dated May 27, were recently re
ceived by the deacons of the church
here from the missing pastor, and con
tained his resignation. 111-health was
given as the cause for the resigna
tion.
“The police, prominent Baptists, Ma
sons and others are on the lookout for
Dr. Dean, both in Kansas'City and Lov
Angeles, and i a
him ! n the next twenty-four hours
cities and towns between these places
will be asked to join in the search.
His wife, a bride of fifteen months, is
prostrated and other relatives are do
ing everything possible to get a trace
of the missing minister.
Mr. Dean left Elberton early in May
for Oklahoma City to represent the
Elberton church and the Georgia Bap
tist convention at the Southern Bap
tist convention recently held in that
city. He was accompanied as far as
Gulfport, Miss., by his three children
by his first marriage, Samuel, aged
12; Dorothy, aged ft; and William,
aged 6. At Gulfport he left the child
ren with their grandmother—the
mother of his first wife, who died
about three years ago.
The second Mrs. Dean went to
Knoxville, Tenn., to visit relatives dur
ing her husband's trip west. At Gulf
port Mr. Dean wrote to her that he
was sick from a nervous attack and
was under the care of his brother-in
law, a physician of Gulfport.
| “After recovering sufficiently to re
sume his journey, Mr. Dean went on
to Oklahoma City, where he attende
the convention sessions. He wrote to
Mrs. Dean from the Sirvin hotel in
that city, but that letter was a per
fectly normal one, and in it there v.
no reference to a return of the ner
vouse attack that he had experienced
in Gulfport.
“The next heard from Mr. Dean was
the letters written at Kansas City on
May 27, in which he said he would not
return for several months. In the
one to his wife he said he was in a
terribly nervous state and that ha
would possibly go to the coast. Im
mediately upon receipt of this letter,
Mrs. Dean returned to Elberton and
consulted members of her husband’s
church as to what should be done.
“Mr. Dean came to Elberton in Jan
uary of this year from the Carters
ville Baptist church, where hes erved
as pastor for four years. Before go
ing to Cartersville he served abou*
four years each with churches at Phil
lad el phi a, Pa., and Newark, X. J. His
j first pastorate was at Americus, Ga ,
I where he remained about four years.
| He was born in Atlanta, and has a sis
ter, a Mrs. Austin, living in that city."

GRIFFIN 10 LOSE
STATE EXPERIMENT
STATION SOON
UDM TO ITHDB Ullll
In Order to Reserve Federal
Appropriation
Athens, Ga., June 10.—There is a
strong probability that the Georgia
experiment station may be moved from
Experiment, near Griffin, to Athens,
where the &tate College of Agriculture
lis located. The trustees of the ex
perimental farm will meet this month
and at that meeting the question of
removal certainly will be considerad.
The change is said to be made nec
essary to conform to the law, which
stipulates that the experiment station
shall be operated in conjunction with
the agricultural colleges of the stale
in order to secure the federal appro
priations which form a considerable
portion of the funds which support the
work.
This is said to be the rule in states
which have state colleges of agricul
ture.
The question was up at the last
meeting of the trustees and it was evi
dent upon investigation that the sta
tion will have to be brought to this
city to be operated with the state col
lege here, or the United States govern
ment appropriations likely will be
withdrawn.
MAD BULL BREAKS ARM
OF WOMAN AT VALDOSTA
Also Assists Policeman Over a Fence
With Horns.
Valdosta, Ga., June 10.—A mad bull
created a sensation on Ann street in
this city yesterday by taaking posses
sion of the street and refused to alio v
anybody to go that way. Mrs. Black,
who resides on that street, started by
the mad animal and was knocked
down and her arm broken before she
could get out of the way.
Later on efforts were made to get
the bull to the pound.
Officer MrKenna started tin to ar
rest the animal, waving a policeman's ,
billy over its head and commanding i:
to be ouiet. The bull waited until
the officer got within a few feet of it,
and then made a savage attack on
him. The bull got the officer on the
end of its horns and assisted him
in getting over a faour-foot fence, also
tearing his coat off.
Later on Chief of Police Dampier
came upon the scene with his elephant
gun and shot the animal, putting an
end to its career.
The Baltimore papers laugh at the
idea of Tom Watson attracting anv
attention up there. Baltimore has too
many freaks of its own the year round
