 "I suffered with neuralgia around the heart and was troubled at times with my head. had pain in my left side, bowels, left thigh, shoulders and arms.
 "After taking Cardui, am now well and can recommend it to other suffering Women."
 Just such doubtful symptoms, as those from which Mrs. Smith suffered, are the ones for which it will pay you to take Cardui, the woman's tonic.
 It is at such times, when there is noth- ing to show, for certain, the real cause of the trouble, that you need tonic, 10 give the body strength to throw off the illness that evidently threatens.

 SALOON|ST
Napoleon Sartori May Fail to Recover From Injur-
 ies Received

According to reports received here yesterday, Napoleon Sartori, proprietor of a saloon in the restricted district of Kelvin, was shot through the head and seriously injured few days ago.
 Sartori had just returned to his place of business, after serving drinks to a number of women, when an assailant whose identity has not as yet been es- tablished, fired at him.
 It is believed that robbery was the motive for the crime, although the sa loon was not footed, the excitement which followed the shooting preventing the robber from carrying out his plans. He escaped, but it is thought that he may be arrested within short time.
 Sartori will be taken to Phoenix where an operation will be performed in the hope of saving his life.

 The stage settings were very good. A real farm yard was represented, tho old well, the barn and the haymow with real hay.
 The play itself was full of comedy. but there were some really beautiful musical numbers introduced.
 The chorus of dairy maids with their little milk pails supplied just the prop, CT touch of completion to the pretty rustic scene.
