“to try Cardui, and they all join me in praiaiug it
for sick woman. I shall ubo Cardui as long as I
can get it to use. I was in a delicate condition and
had formerly had two mishaps and came very near
losing this child. My doctor told mo he didn’t think
Cardui could help mo; that I had waited too long.
But I stopped taking doctors' medicines and sent
for a bottle of Cardui, and in less than a week was up
and able to do my housework. Five months later,
after taking; 5 bottles of Cardui, and with only 1 y%
hour of pain, I was the happy mother of a fine,
healthy, baby, boy, of 11 pounds.”
Cardui has been found to strengthen
and tone up the womanly organs, regu

It is a puro, .vegetable medicine, with
genuine curative powers, and acts so

SUMMARY OF WORK
NATIONAL HOUSE
WASHINGTON, Doc. 11—A
new record in the transaction of
the public business was estab
lished by the house of represen
tative today. The legislative
executive and judicial appropria
tion bill which usually excites
considerable discussion, lasting
for several days, was passed with
little debate and posted practi
cally *• it came from the com
mittee. An unusual feature was
that no member asked for time
to indulge in general talk.
The facility witlt which the
bill of 165 pages was put through
was the eubTsct of mu*;H com
ment on the floor, and the mem
bers of the appropriations com
mittee congratulated themselves
on the outcome.
The bill carries an appropria
tion of $31,665,329. The house
immediately after convening
unanimously and without debate,
adopted a resolution providing
for tha appointment of a com
mittee of five to consider the
reference to the secert service
in the president's message and
to suggest what action, if any,
should be taken in the matter.
At 5:11 p. m. the house ad
journed.
