Wells, of this town. “Before I be gan to take Cardui, I could hardly go about. I had several womanly trou bles, which caused me much suffer ing, and were very troublesome. But now I feel like a different person. I had often read of Cardui, but had in it. My husband urged me t W try it, and now T cannot find Words to express how thankful I am. Cardui is a wonderful medicine and I feel that it was a greater help than anything I could have taken. I had scarcely no pain or suffering at childbirth, and I feel I owe it all to Cardui. I know that no woman would make a mistake in using Cardui at ♦ hat most critical time. It will save ♦ hem so much suffering. It is my, sincere desire that this statement may be seen and read by all sufferers who suffer as I did. I am telling all my friends and ac quaintances of the great cure I have received.” If you suffer from any of the ali ments so common to women, give Cardui a trial. Thousands of women have voluntarily written, to tell of the great benefit that Cardui has been to them. Why shouldn’t It help you, too? This store scores high again.

Arts of Provocation. “They met acts of provocation, liku the incorporation of the German cruis ers Breslau and Goeben in the Turkisn navy and the abolition of the capitu lations, merely by protests. Then a sort of ultimatum was addressed to England regarding the watch kept upon the mouth of the Dardanelles. This also failed but finally the Turks began a military demonstration against the Egyptian frontier but they found all preparations made for an attack. Bent on War. "Mow comes the bombardment of the Russian towns. It is believed that the sultan and some of his advisers favor a policy .’of neutrality but that they have been overborne by the committee of union and progress which is bent on war. "Great numbers of Turkish troops are supposed to be massed along the Russian frontier, where the problem of feeding them must be arduous. To the south the Ottoman forces are be lieved to be echeloned through south ern Syria and Palestine with forces actually upon the Egyptian frontier at Rafa on the Mediterranean and Akaba on the Red sea. Allies Ready. “The allies are quite ready for Tur key. Ail preparations have been made by England in Egypt along the banks of the Suez canal and the peninsula of Sinai. Greece too is ready as Tur key will soon discover. “By her foolish yielding to the in stigations of Germany, Turkey has pronounced her own doom. The Otto man empire in Europe soon will be merely a memory. Since the Turks at e resolved on self-destruction we do not regret her appearance in the ranks cf the combatants. End of Turk in Europe. "The present mighty struggle will mean for Europe not only the end of Prussian militarism but also the end of the Turks in Europe. These have been the chief menaces to the peace of the old world for more than fifty years. Syria, Arabia and Mesopota mia will also bo freed from the blight ing influence of the Turk who will be relegated to the obscure valleys of Asia Minor. TO IMPORT U. S.
