THE DAILY TIMEI% \\WeR,
WISHED SHE ' f
COULD DIE
i And Be Free From Her Troubles,
bat Finds Better Way.
Columbia, Tenn.—“ Many a time,”
says Mrs, Jessie Sharp, of this place.
“J wished I would die and be relieved ■
of nty isuffering, from womanly troubles. :
I could not get up, without pulling at
something to help me, and stayed in bed
most of the time. 1 could not do my
housework.
The least amount of work tired me
out. My head would swim, and I would
tremble for an hour or more. Finally, I
took Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I
am not bothered with pains any more, ■
and I don’t have to go to bed. In fact,
1 am sound and well of all my troubles.”
Cardui goes to all the weak spots and
helps to make them strong. It acts with
nature—not against her. It is for the
tired, nervous, irritable women, who feel
as if everything were wrong, and need
something to quiet their nerves and
strengthen the worn-out system.
If you are a woman, suffering from any
of the numerous symptoms of womanly
trouble, take Cardui. It will help you.

BATHERS WANT
/ IRE FREEDOM
Atlanta, May 27.—Have you ever
I seen haw mad it makes a eat to tie pa
! pers shoes on its feet? If you have,
then, you know how the bathers at
Piedmont Park are feeling and acting
Over the park board rule which forces
them to wear sleeves in their bathing
| cuits.
They are wild, they are pleading,
they are derisive by turns, while the
park board is inexorable. The unique
ness of the situation, the resurrection
of laws from the old puritanical blue
books, is so picturesque, by the war,
that ttie criticism nas spread outside
Atlanta and the park board is on the
verge of getting into the funny papers
and winning nation-wide fame.

RISK BULLETS FOR
RIIIMONDS IN CHICAGO
Chicago, May 27. —Scattering diam-
Ifed rings, brooches, and other valu
able jewelry by the handful along
West Madison street early today, a.
robber fled, with the police in hot pur
suit, pumping their automatic revolv
ers until the street sang with bullets.
Meanwhile street-car men, belateJ
passengers, pedistrians, cab drivers,
and newsboys braved the rain of bul- ,
lets to scramble for the jewelry. Ths
glittering baubles were scattered for
two blocks, and the contest for “souv
enirs” of the occasion resulted in
numerous fights.
The robber gave his name as Frame
Reimer. The police will try to con
nect him with numerous other similar
robberies of jewelry stores.
As soon as Orville Wright has per
fected his dive preventer, some of our
big cities should get an option on the
initial output.
