The Man for Governor.

Fort Scott Republican: The stat
IL pervaded with the sentiment tina
the next governor Of Kansas must b
q man OF strength and ability risinI
above the average. J. L. Bristow II
bis Salina Journal voices this sentl
nnent when he says:
"What Kansas wants is governor
Of strong and vigorous executive abil
fly, thoroughly familiar with tht
needs Of the state, with sufficient In
telligence to outline wise conserya-
tive policy, and force Of character to
carry 1t out"
All this is very true. The next
governor and that means the next
Republican nominee, will not be chos-
on by reason Of being able to make
pretty nor high sounding speeches,
but must be a man who has made
good doing things. man upon whom
the people can depend to be at once
practical, strong and conservative.
The field discloses no man measur-
ing up to these requirements more
fully than Grant Hornaday. 1t is be-
cause he does meet these demands
that even at this early date he is
generally regarded as the leading
gubernatorial candidate. While there
have as yet been no formal announce
ments 1t is understood that Mr..
Hornaday will be a candidate. Al
ready not only flom his own district,
the Second, is a strong Hornaday
sentiment manifested but it is appar-
ent over the state at large.
IA man Of strong and vigorous ex-
eCutive ability" says Mr.. Bristow.
Surely Mr.. Hornaday has proved
himself possessed Of this ability by |
his achievements in the commercial
world. Sound judgment, unaagging
application and executive ability
which make for success in the bust
ness world are qualities which will
make state executive who will be a
credit to Kansas.
More than that 1t would take a
long search to find man who is
more familiar with the needs OF the ,
state than Mr.. Hornaday. A man Of I
broad interests and public spirit he
has for years been closely in touch
With state affairs. That this activity
las not been in the line Of office 8
Ieeking adds to the strength Of his o
v
Truly Kansas needs for its next ii
governor big strong man, sound,
forceiul and determined. y
The material for that sort Of a gov u
rnor is found in Grant Hornaday and a
he Republicans Of the state are COM 81

Are you hesitating, at the parting OF
the ways, on the question of whether,
or not, you should "Take Cardui?"
If so, perhaps the following informa-
ton will help you to settle the question,
in a way that will be satisfactory and
beneficial-tO you.
The main question really resolves it
self into two:
First: Will Cardui do you any harm7
Second: Will Cardui do you any goods
We can answer them both for you, in
a manner that we feel sure will be- con-
yincing.
First: Cardui will not do you any
harm, no matter what your age, or In
what condition of health you may be.
Cardui is manufactured according to
scientific methods, from absolutely
harmless vegetable ingredients, con-
tains no minerals, opiates, or other dele
FERROUS drugs, and is fully Guaranteed
under the Pure Food and Drugs Act.
Second: Cardui will do you good.
How much good, of course, depends
very largely on your present state of
health, how long you have been sick,
and how long you continue to take it.
These things you know more about
than we do.
But we do know that Cardui has
proven itself, in the many years since it
was first used, q most benefcent,
strengthening, and specific remedy,
for the common disorders to which wo-
men are so subject.
Cardui will strengthen you if you are
weak.
1t will relieve your female troubles,
if they are due to some cause which can
be reached by medicine.
AS proof of the statement that Car
dui will benefit womanly disorders, we
ask you to read the letters printed
below; then to go to your druggist and
get bottle of it.
