TO WIDEN FILL.
1T rs DEFECTIVE AND HAS AL
READY COST THE COUNTY
MUCH MONEY.

A number Of high moguls of the
county administration went ont to
Fortson's I'LL, two miles from Wood
vile, yesterday to determine what
was best TO be done with it. The open
ing for the flow of water left whhn the
creek was built up with fill was not
large enough for the volumes of water
that came with a rush when there
was hard rain, and as result the
county has lost considerable money by
reason of washouts. Several enlarge
ments failed in any apparent result,
and yesterday the delegation decided
that a twenty-foot opening on one side
will have to be increased to eighty
feet, which it is said will cost several
hundred dollars, and require several
weeks.

Mrs. c. r. Wooding, Of indianapolis,
Ind, says she gets through childbirth best
by using Wine Of Cardui. She writes;
al have received great benefit from taking
Wine Of Cardui, while nursing my children.
I did not have Wine Of Cardui after the first
two children and was greatly reduced in
flesh. Bot the last two times have used Il
with good results to myself and the little

childbirth better by using h too"
With these facts that Mrs. Unrath and
Mrs. Wedding lay before the women Of
America no one who is about to become
mother can afford to fail to take the Wine
Of Cardui treatment. Wine of Cardui, in
reinforcing the organs Of generation, has
made mothers of women who had given
up hope Of ever becoming mothers. Wine
Of Cardui will cure almost any case Of bar
renness except those cases Of organic trou-
bic which no doctor or medicine can pos
sibly cure. How can you refuse to take
such a remedy that promises such relief
from suffering? Wine Of Cardui simply
makes you a strong woman, and strong,
healthy women do not suffer. They look
forward to motherhood with joy.
