eration of clubs. Upon consultation ■
with the president of the Woman’s!

KEPT HER AWAKE
I
The Terrible Pains in Back and
Sides. Cardui Gave Relief.
Marksville, La.—Mrs. Alice Johnson,
of this place, writes: “For one year I
suffered with an awful misery in my back
■nd sides. My left side was hurting me
til the time. The misery was something
twful.
I could not do anything, not even sleep
it night. It kept me awake most of the
night... I took different medicines, but
nothing did me any good or relieved me
until I took Cardui...
I was not able to do any of my work
for one year and I got worse all the time,
was confined to my bed off and on. 1 got
io bad with my back that when I stooped
down I was not able to straighten up
■gain ... I decided 1 would try Cardui
... By time I had taken the entire bottle
I was feeling pretty good and could
straighten up and my pains were nearly
111 gone.
1 shall always praise Cardui. I con
dnued taking it until 1 was strong and
well.” If you suffer from pains due to
(■male complaints, Cardui may be just
what you need. Thousands of women
who once suffered m this way now praise
j Cardui for their present good health.

Use Grandma’s Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.
_- —/■
The us© of Sage and Sulphur for re
; storing faded, gray hair to its natural
j color dates back to grandmother’s
1 time. She used ft to keep her hah’
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac
tive. Whenever her hair took on tha
dull, faded or streaked appearan ■
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home Is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound," you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other In
gredients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
' to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell It has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with It and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
■ beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
■ for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. It is not Intended for
I the cure, mitigation or prevention of

Reynolds Had Been Going Down
Hill Fifteen Years. Stomach
Trouble and Rheumatism Over
come by Puratone—Gains Nine
Pounds.
Few men in Atlanta are better
. known than Thomas W. Reynolds,
popular salesman for the Star Mar
ket, at No. 4 North Broad street.' In
a recent statement Mr. Reynolds
said:
“Puratone I's wonderful. It almost
made a brand-new man of me in a
very short time. I had been going
down hill about fifteen years, suffer
ing with stomach trouble and rheu
matism. I lost my appetite almost
entirely and the little I forced down
would upset my stomach and cause
gas to form on my stomach and make
me bloat terribly. Sometimes when
| 1 went to the table I would turn
' deathly sick at the sight of food and
I would have to leave the dining room.
I was dreadfully nervous and got
very little sleep at night. When I
got out of bed in the morning I felt
more tired than I did on going to
bed the night before. I always had
a mean taste in my mouth and my
tongue was badly coated. I was ter
ribly constipated and had tc take
laxatives all the time. I felt weak
and tired all the time and couldn’t
take interest in anything.
“she ir.eumatism got so bad that
nearly every muscle in my body ach
ed and I suffered terribly. I tried ■
all kinds of medicines and treatments, i
but nothing seemed to help me.
“Then 1 began to hear so many i
good things about Pomeroy’s Pura
tone that I decided to give it a trial. i
It helped me from the very first few I
doses. It soothed my stomach and ■
the first thing I knew I began to get'
hungry. I started eating hearty I
meals and was surprised to find that '
everything agreed with me and there :
were no bad after effects, such as i
gas forming, indigestion or pains in '
my stomach. I have taken three :
bottles, and I’m not like the same ;
mamnow. I have gained nine pounds :
in weight and my strength has been ,
increased wonderfully. I can now;
eat three big meals a day, every
thing tastes good and there are no 1
I bad after effects. I don’t have that |
tired feeling any more, am not ner- |
vous like I was, and when I go to i
bed at night I am soon asleep and I |
don’t wake up until morning. I feel |
rested and refreshed when I get up in .
the mornings and am ready for a big ;
day’s work. I am no longer consti- .
pated and I haven’t that coated ton-|
gue and mean taste in my mouth
now. I feel bright and cheerful all '
the time, and my health has improved I

i Whose Remarkable Restoration to
Health la Being Commented on
by His Many Friends
so much that many of my friends
ihave noticed the change and have
| asked me what I have been doing.
The most wonderful thing of all is
! that the rheumatism has been over
■ come and I haven’t a pain about me.
; Puratone has been worth more than
gold to me.’’
In commenting on the above state
ment the Puratone man said: “Pura
|tone is taking Atlanta by storm and
|is daily making thousands of friends
;in this city and section. Puratone is
I produced from a combination of
1 medicinal roots, barks, berries, herbs
; and fibre, which act directly on the
' stomach, liver and kidneys. It makes
, rich, red blood, strengthens the
nerves and tones up the entire sys
tem. A person with a sound stomach
|can combat three- fourths of the dis
| eases that assail humanity. This ex-
I plains the tremendous success of
I Puratone. It brings perfect health
to the much-abused organ—the stom
ach—and this in turn rids the body
[ of these symptoms, acts on the liver
and kidneys and banishes rheumatism
| from the system.’’
Puratone is sold in Americus by
Carswell Drug Co., and by one lead-
I ing druggist in every town.— (adv)
