WORDS
WELL SAID
t Is Not So Much What She
Said AS the Convincing
Way She Said 1t.

Henrietta, Tex.,-Mrs. Rosa Shaekle-
ford is a lady of few words, but those
she uses are right to the point and tell
the whole story Of what she wants to
say.
Mrs. shackleford writes: II have
used Wine of Cardui and find it to be
a good medicine; SO 1 have recon-
mended it TO my n%eighbors:'
What you may be looking for today,
at this moment, may be just what
Mrs. Shackleford found-a good med
icine.
This tells the whole story. If cardui
was good for Mrs. Shackleford, it GER
tainly ought to be good for you.
And it will. This we know, because,
for over half a century of time, CON-
mencing before most of the readers of
this paper were born, Cardui has been
helping sick wornen back to health
and strength.
Cardut's strengthening effects quick
" show themselves, in many different
ways.
1t acts specifically on the weakened
Iwomanly organs, strengthens the mus
cles OIL nerves and building them up to
health.
1t helps to refresh the WORKOUT
nerves and relieve the effects of over
work, both mental and physical.
Not a strong, drug-saturated. min
eral mixture, but a mildly medicinal,
tonic extract of herbal ingredients,
Cardui is the ideal remedy for young
and old.

THE RAILROAD SIDE.
Statement ISSUED From Cedar Rapids
Says Steam Line Are Not Affected.

Cedar Rapids, Dec. There vas
much speculation in Cedar Rapids.
Iowa City and intermediate points last
night over the probable effect of the
case of Elizabeth D. McClintock VS..
the Cedar Rapids and Iowa City Rail
way and Light Company, the state
board of railway commissioners ct al.
before Judge Mcpherson at Des Moines
in which the court granted a temporary
injunction restraining all the Defend
ants from attempting TO put into oper-
alton the 2-cent per mile rate OF pas
senger fare provided for by the laws of
Iowa.
The situation is peculiar, Yet easily
understood.
When the Legislature of Iowa adopt
ed he 2-cent law it provided that in
terurbans ana other local roads should
not come under its provisions until
these roads reached a certain passen-
ger earning capacity per mile. This
maximum was not reached by the Ce-
dar Rapids-IGwa City line until last
September. when it came automatic
ally, within the provisions of the 2-cent
law.
When the law was passed the Rock
Island. the only line between Cedar
Rapids and Iowa City. adopted a rate
OF 81 cents between these points. The
i~nterurban was, of course. obliged TO
meet that rate. as a matter of compe-
tition, altho this road runs cars hourly
for twenty-one hours every day. The
~interurban rate has been 90 cents with
q wound -r;r r,Ia.-af - r>i-;- $50
also issued a mileage book by which
it charged so cents for 271s miles. In
addition it made a practically one
half rate to scholars.
Under the general law. a road car
not charge a greater rate of fare cor
any Il mile of its line than the aver
age rate per mile based on the maxi
mum fare between terminal points
That IS. if the rate per mile between
terminals was 2.36 cents. as it has been
between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City
no greater rate could be charged be-
tween intermediate points.
As has been said. the interurban is
now a Glass a" road. and the Iowa
law provides that it shall not charge tc
exceed . cents per mile.
But the ilterurban is not seeking fol
the right to charge more than 65 cent:
between Cedar Rapids and Iowa city
for it mus continue 10 meet the Rocl
Island rate: nor does it ask for the
right t charge more than 2.36 pei
mile, as now charged between inter.
mediate points. 1t only asks for the
right to charge as much as at present
That is. Mrs. M~cC1intock. n of III,
largest holders of preferred stock il

shall Tot be permitted to reduce L
rates, alleging that the company woult
lose money by any further reduction

HOW SHE CURED
Rheumatism

1 wish every rheumatic sufferer to know what S. S. S. did
for me. Ihad been afflicted with Rheumatism for twenty wears.
sometimes being entirely laid up by it, and always lame in
some part OF my body. 1t grew worse until it was misery to
attempt to walk at all; my right knee was nearly twice its 3
natural size and was drawn up considerably shorter than the
other one. A friend advised me to take S. S. s., which 1 com.
menced. I had tried SO many things that 1 must say 1 had
very little faith that it would do me any good, but was willing
to try anything that promised relief. Before I had been using
thong 1 was greatly encouraged, and continuing the medicine
I soon found I was entirely cured. The lameness and soreness
all left, and 1 can straighten, move or bend my leg as we'll as
any one, 1 am sixty-fve years old, but have had no symptoms
Of Rheumatism since S. S. S. cured me.

No. 1875 Fulton ST., Blooklyn, N. y

The sincere and truthful tone of Mrs. Palmer's letter must impress
one who reads il. She had suffered with the agonies of Rheu-
matism for twenty years, and when she found a medicine that proved
its worth by curing her, a humane interest in others who were suffering
from the disease prompted her to recommend it.
Rheumatism is due to a diseased condition of the blood cells and
corpuscles, brought about by an excess of uric acid in the circulation.
This uratc impurity gets into the blood usually because of systemic
such as constipation, imperfect kidney action, indigestion,
and other minor stomach disturbances. These common ailments pre-
vent the proper working Of the eiminaive members, and thus certain
of the refuse matter which should pass off is left in the
system to sour and form uric acid, which is absorbed into the blood.
Then the corpuscles of the circulation which ordinarily furnish
noudshment to the body, are saturated with the urahc impurhy which
they deposit into the muscles, nerves, bones and joints This causes
Inflammation and the pains, aches, and stiffness of Rheumatism.
External applications, such as plasters, liniments, hot applications.
ETC., cannot have any permanent effect on Rheumatism. Temporary
relief from its pains is sometimes afforded by such measures, but the
old cause is always at work in the blood, and as soon as the local
treatment is left off every symptom will return.
There is but one way to cure Rheumtis1m, and that is to purify the
blood-cleanse the circulation of the uric acid impuriy. SIS. S. goes
