Abbottsburg, N. C,-''I suffered greatly, every month"; writes Mrs. G, H. Smith, of this place. and have done so at times, ever since | was fifteen years old
 At one time my suffering was so great l almost wanted to die, and when my baby came 1 was very sick for twelve long hours. I thought sure I would die and my baby did die. So I decided to take Cardui.
 The first bottle did me so much Now I have three fine babies, and am never sick over three hours since l began to take Cardui."
 At all times of pain and weakness, you should take Cardui, to help re- vive your Tagging forces, drive away the pain, and restore the balance of true health.
 When the health part of the scale is too light in the balance, little tafuul WILL SOol llp tle DctlA eho right way.
 The reason is, that it is a specific remedy, prepared to assist the pro- per working of the womanly organs while experience shows that it is suc- cessful, and has been so for over 90 years.

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
EASTERN MEN BELIEVE
FIGHT IMPOSSIBLE

New York, Oct. 7.-Eastern sport
ing men are not at all certain that
there ever will be a fight for the heavy
weight championship between James
J. Jeffries and Jack Johnson. Recent
cablegrams from Paris that Jeffries
expected q purse of $4,000 to be Of
fered. together with Johnson's repeat
ed assertions that he would claim a
lions share of any purse offered, have
partially confirmed the belief or fear
that the two big men will not agree
on terms. A purse of $15O.0OO is con-
sidered out of the question. Jeffries
STYLES himself as "undefeated cham
pion of the world" and his friends de-
clare that this is sufficient indication
that he viii insist on debating the
terms and will demand the champions
portion at any stake.
Hugh Mcintosh. the Australian pro-
moter, left London last night for Paris
to see Jeffries and further increase
his bid Of $4,000 for the fight. AT the
same time Jeffries left Paris for Lon
don and they passed each other on
the way. II is now understood that
seffries will sail for this country next
Saturday and his representative here
declares that Immediately upon his ar
rival in New York he viii be ready

SOONERS THROW SCARE
INTO KANSAS CAMP

Lawrence, Kans., Oct. There Is a
real scare in the camp OF the Jay
hawkers this week, and the cause OF
il all is none other than the fear q
possible defeat at the hands OF the
sooners next Saturday With practi-
calIy every man OF last years scrappy
team back on the Oklahoma squad,
II is the lurking fear in the minds
OF the coaches and of the men them
selves that Benny owen. the willy tutor
OF the Oklahomans, may be able TO
realize his long cherished ambition
and slip defeat over the Jayhawkers
Last year. with a cripple or two. his
team was able to hold the ever VIC
torious X. u aggregation 70 II to
D score, and Kennedys pupils were IN
better condition for that battle than
they will be next Saturday.
Kennedy and Mosse have shifted
Captain Pleasant from his old posi-
ton at the end OF the line to left
half, and will run him there at least
part OF the game with the sooners. In
his place at end win be II. Brownlee,
who has been coming out favorably.
Another change may put Tommy :
Stephenson in the line leaving VIII
Eelm and Dahlene to hold down the
fullback's position. Randall got a bad
humping in the tussle with the Chi
locco Indians. and may need relief
at tackle before the end OF the hard
seventy minutes OF play Saturday,
The punching Of scrimmage work
and the game Saturday followed by
the two scrub" games Monday have
combined to put the men in bad shape,
for a hard game, but the coaches take
the view that with considerable
bunch Of comparatively green men,
they have to keep at hard work. The
freshmen lined up against the first
team behind closed gates for an hour
this afternoon. and the secret work
will continue until Friday, when the
men will be given lighter work. In
the meantime the men are working as
only men can work who, although
bruised and sore, are doing their best

finish. II nothing else can win, the
