she obtained relief through the use of
Cardui. “My husband, having heard
of Cardui, proposed getting it for me.
"I saw after taking some Cardui
~ . that I was improving. The result
was surprising. I felt like a different
person.
“Later I suffered from weakness
and weak back, and felt all run-down.
I did not rest well at night, I was so
1 nervous and cross. My husband said
he would get me some Cardui, which
he did. It strengthened me . . . My
doctor said I got along fine. I was in
good healthy condition. I cannot
my too much for It."
Thousands of women have suffered
as Mrs. Williams describes, until they
found relief from the use of Cardui.
Since it has helped so many, you
should not hesitate to try Cardui If

WEEKLY COTTON LETTER BY
THE SAVANNAH COTTON
FACTORAGE CO.
The government’s condition report
as of July 25th, 70.8, indicating a cot
ton crop of 11,449,000 bales, brought
an advance on the New York futures
market of nearly 2c per pound, clos
ing at a net gain of 105 to 110 points.
Periods of liquidation and profit-tak
ing set in following the reports, and
the market cased off during the re
mainder of the week. Failure to set
tle the coal and rail strikes encouraged
selling by some Southerners and also
by professional traders. The outlook
today is that both strikes will be set
tled at an early date. This, together
with continued hot, dry weather in
the West, should have a stimulating
effect on the market before August
15th, unless the demand is insufficient
to take care of offerings.
August is the boll weevil month.
The September Ist condition report
will indicate the approximate damage,
and we predict higher prices after that
date.
Mail order houses, wholesalers and
others report a steady improvement
in business. This improvement should
continue, for the following reasons:
Liquidation in every line is about
over.
Unemployment has decreased to
I normal.
Cotton storks have decreased to
pre-war levels.
This season's cotton crop of 10 to,
11 million hales should sell for 20c
or over, putting millions of dollars
more in circulation
“ Uncle Sam” is loaning money to
assist in the orderly marketing of
cotton, instead of rushing it on the
market as rapidly as picked.
Better times appear to he not far
distant. Let’s he prepared to enjoy
the prosperity which is hound to
come.
