A DOLLAR

Is All Mrs. Campbell Needs to
Keep in Good Health Now,
According to Her Own
Statement.

Moro, Ark.-In a letter from this
place, Mrs. Anna Campbell says:
Seven years ago l was in a critical
condition-was so weak that | could
not get out of bed for four weeks
was advised to try Cardui, the wo-
mans tonic, and l bought bottle.
Before I had taken two-thirds OF
1t I was not only able to be up, but
could do my work
At times, now l have headache,
backache and weak, trembling spells,
but 1t doesn't take but three or four
doses Of Cardui to straighten me out
ready for work
l have been using Cardui for II
years, but 1t only takes one bottle "a
year for me now, and l don't take
any other kind of medicine
am also giving it to my daughter,
and it is doing her all the good in
the world.
I would not be without Cardui in
my home"
This letter, picked at random from
our file of many similar ones, should
certainly convince you that Cardui is,
at least, entitled to fair trial, if you
suffer from any of the ailments so
common to women. or merely need
tonic for that tired nervous, worn
out feeling.
Cardui has been helping weak wo-
men for over half century. 1t will
help you, too

Take the right care of your hair, and instead of spelling your good looks, 1t will improve them. You can't beautify your hair bar barett3s, ribbons and such things. Knick- knacks make homely hair look worse, because the contrast shows off :ts ugliness to greater effect

VICE PARTNERSHIP.

The partnership with vice was the subject of stirring address made yesterday by Circuit Judge Gotham to the grand jury. In brief Judge Gotham struck squarely at the root of most evils when he took the stand that vice was controllable if there was unit ed disposition to control, and that where law violations were frequent and open the fact of itself was sug- gestive of partnership somewhere in official life.
 Hot Springs has passed from the successful day of privilege giving. Therefore it is reasonable to expect, in the event liquor is not licensed here after January l, that dealing with the then Illegal traffic, will be the bone of much contention. II liquor is sold illegally after that date it will be through vice partnership, or 1t will not be sold in any consider. able quantities.
 Which will the people prefer?

ABSURD STATE LAW.

In dealing-with scrip basis here in Hot Springs the people are confront ed with most absurd state law. The state law says that no overcharge shall be made by any individual or company against the city because ot any depreciation in the value Of the city warrants. If such a law were recognized, who is there that would sell to the city. Who would take Eoods off his shelves and sell to the city on the same basis of exchange for 75 cents in value of scrip, that he would for good American dollars Such absurdities of the law are prob aaly necessary for other reasons--but their only value in this connection is to stand as proof of what the city is
 osing through scrip issue. If the people took proper individual in terest in their government there would be no scrip basis, but when they stand back and expect a few chosen officials to perfom even more than miracles, they can not hope for much better conditions in exchange for their disinterest.
