SEVERE PUNISHMENT
Os Mrs. Chappell, of Five Years’
Standing, Relieved by CarduL
jRt Airy, N. C —Mrs. Sarah M. Chap-
Kof this town, says: “I suffered for
years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my punishment
was more than any one could tell.
I tried most every kind of medicine,
tat none did me any good.
1 read one day about Cardui, the wo
ssarfs tonic, and 1 decided to try it. I
had not taken but about six bottles until
1 was almost cured. It did me more
eood than all the other medicines I had
fried, put together.
friends began asking me why I
looked so well, and 1 tola them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it.”
Do you. lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
feeling?
If so, let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial. We feel confident it will help you,
fast as it has a million oilier women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won't regret it. Ali druggists.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
Information from the office of the
Georgia Sunday School association
indicates extraordinary preparations
are being made for the state Sunday
’ school convention which is to be held
/in Atlanta, June 13, 14, 15. The offi
j cers of the State Sunday School
I association and the program committee
T.re determined to make this the best
I Sunday school convention ever held
; in the state, and break all past records
' for attendance. More than sixty
speakers are on the program. Among
them are such men as Marion Ijlw
rence of Chicago, general secretary of
the International Sunday School asso
ciation ; P. E. Green, Birmingham,
superintendent of Sabbath school
werk, Alabama Synod of the Presbyte
rian church, U. S. A.; Dr. Plato Dur
ham. of Atlanta, dean of the Candler
School of Theology; Dr. W. L. Pickard,
ts Macon, president of Mercer univer
sity; Miss Daisy Davies, LaGrange,
president LaGrance Female College;
Mrs. H. H. Tift, Tifton; Dr. A. W. Van
lioose, Rome, president of Shorter
College, and many others of equal
prominence.
The music is to be in charge of Prof.
E. O. Excell, of Chicago, who is one
of the world's famous convention song
leaders and composers of music. He
will be assisted by Prof. Alvin W.
Roper, of Winona Lake, Ind., who has
been pianist with Prof. Excell for a
number of years.
The Atlanta Sunday school workers
and church people are taking hold of
the arrangements with true Atlanta
spirit. J. V. Wellborn ,of Atlanta, is
chairman of the general committee on
arrangements. The committee on en
tertainment is composed of Prof. Floyd
Field, chairman, and twenty-nine
bther prominent church workers of
Atlanta. They are securing home for
2.500 delegates.
All white Sunday schools in the
state are entitled to three delegates
besides pastor and superintendent.
Every Sunday school in the county is
Requested to elect three alternate
tielegates who can take the place of
any regular delegate who finds it im-
S'cssible to attend. In case any school
or church that has no school, fails
to elect delegates, the first three
adults who register from that school
will be counted as delegates.
Each delegate will be furnished free
entertainment for lodging and break
.fnst while attending the convention.
This arrangement was made because
pny church in a city the size of Atlanta
. is several miles from the majority of
. the homes. For this reason the offl
jeers of the state association felt that
i the delegates would prefer getting
, their lunches and suppers at down
! town restaurants near the convention
church.
A very low railroad rate has been
granted from various parts of the
state. The round trip rate from Amer
icus is $5.55.

Troops in Pursuit of Bandits.
1 WASHINGTON, D. C., May B.
A new American expedition may al
ready be across the border pur
suing the bandits who “raided Glenn
(Springs and Alpine, Texas, Friday
night. Secretary of War Baker stated
this afternoon that General Funston's
orders give him complete authority to
cross the border on a ' hot trail” when- 1
ever necessary. No additional reports
concerning the raid had reached the
war department at nooil, and early
statements of the depredations are ac
cepted by the authorities here as being
wholly accurate.
A report formed from the basis of
consular reports received Sunday, has
been sent to General Carranza, but no
specific request for additional Mex
ican troops to better protect the bor
der will be sent the de facto govern
ment. At the state department, it was
assumed, however, that General Obre
gon has already ordered the pursuit of
- the raiders by Mexican troops.

, many miles from the scene of the re
cent depredations.

AUSTIN, Tex., May 8. —Governor
Ferguson today issued an official state
ment saying the state danger force is
