Emmett Shaw to Make
Race For Congress
Ft. Gaines, Ga., August 29.—
Senator Emmett R. Shaw, who
is at home for a few days, when
asked if he proposed to make the
race for congress in the third dis¬
trict, stated that while he would
not announce for congress before
the holidays, as he did not think
the people would appreciate a
long-drawn-out and tiresome cam¬
paign, said that he would announce
his candidacy after the holidays.
This is taken to mean here at home
that Senator Shaw will be certain
to be in the race for congress.
Senator Shaw ispopular through¬
out this section, an aggressive cam¬
paigner, will meet all comers upon
the platform and will undoubtedly
make a strong race.

Cardiff is successful, because it Is made especially for

Cardui does one thing, and does it well. That explains >cZ»
the great success which it has had, during the past 50 years,
in helping thousands of weak and ailing women back to
health and happiness.
If you are a woman, feel tired, dull, and are nervous,
cross and irritable, it’s because you need a tonic. Why not
try Cardui ? Cardui builds, strengthens, restores, and acts
in every way as a special, tonic remedy for women. Test
it for yourself. Your druggist sells Cardui. Ask him.
