Bristol, Va.—"l can sleep good at night now, something I have never done before in my life,” says Mrs. Deala Hawks, of 712 Prospect St., this city, “and it is due to CarduL “I was always nervous and tossed when I should have been asleep, but since I took Cardui it has strength ened me, and my general health is so improved that many of the ills from which I have suffered for years have fled. . . “I used to go to bed tired and, when I would get up in the morning, I was still tired. Now I feel like doing a day’s work in my garden or in the house, and I owe all this good health to Cardui, for I had suffered for years until I took it. “I had had female trouble for years and once, for six months, I was flat on my back. lam glad to recommend to other women a medicine which has helped me.” If you are nervous and run-down in health, suffering as Mrs. Hawks de scribes above, it is probable that Cardui will greatly help you.

Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by Hushing them with a mild, harmless salts which helps to re move the body’s urinous waste and stim ulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital impor tance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of good water—you can’t drink too much; also get from any phar macist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help clean and stimu late clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, which everyone should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this: also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt vou will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and back ache. By all means have your physi cian examine your kidneys at least twice a year. I 1 Pimply Skin and Impure Blood Due to a Torpid Liver Blood carries body’s poisons, which quickly disfigure the complexion | The liver is the body’s wonderful purifier. All of our blood passes through the liver every 15 minutes for purification. Everyone’s blood is constantly poi soned by body toxins formed in food waste. When the liver becomes weak, or torpid, our systems are at once tainted by blood toxins. These are poisons that, if not de stroyed by the liver, are carried di rect to the skin and cause sallowness, blotches, redness, eruptions and pim ples. Doctors know that a good com plexion comes only from within the body. Blood impurities cannot be rubbed away with creams or oint tnents. Science also knows that the liver— the body’s complexion maker—can not be regulated by drugs, but a safe Nature substance has been dis covered which will act directly on the liver. The discovery is purified ox gall. Get from your druggist a package of Dioxol. Each tablet contains ten drops of purified ox gall. In 24 hours the poison toxins will be re moved. Your liver will be regulated. Blood purification will begin. Sal low skin will clear. Pimples will pass away, leaving the complexion clear and soft. Dioxol tablets are harmless, tasteless and cost less than two cents each. These genuine ox gall tablets are prepared only under the name “Dioxol.” If any tablet is offered you under another name, refuse it. Accept only Dioxol in the original, genuine package. Dioxol is especially recommend ed by E. L- Murray Pharmacy. a-Mw-C- ........... F CHURCHWELLS 55 PAGE FIVE
