Hines, Ala-e1 must confess, says Mrs Eula Mae Reid, of this place, "that Cardui the Woman's tonic, has done ne great deal of good.
 Before commenced using Cardu, ] would spit Up everything ate. l had a tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and was irregular. l could hardly drag around, and would have severe headaches con- hnuously.
 Since taking Cardui, have entirely quit spltting Up what l eat. Everything seems to digest all right, and l have gained 10 pounds in weight.
 If you are victim of any of the numer- ous Ills so common to your sex, it is wrong to suffer.
 For half century, Cardui has been re- heving just such ills, as is proven by the thousands of letters, similar to the above, which pour into our office, year by year.
 Cardui is successful because it is con- posed ofingredents which actspecfically on the Womanly constitution, and helps build the weakened organs back to health and strength.
 Cardui has helped others, and will help you, too. Get bottle today. You won't regret it. Your druggist sells it.

CT the fair and the attendance tomor-

The fact that Saturday afternoon is
a half holiday to a large number of

Another Interesting event of the

such a popular drawing card yester-
day that the fair officials decided to
run another race Of the same. kind on

Only bad weather can mar the fes-

THURSDAY. NOV. 5. 1911.

The prediction has been made
and we think time will see it
fufilled-that the work of the
extraordinary session of the
General Assembly marks the
beginning of the end of the
political career of a number
Of the members who were
prominent in trying to cucumber
the State with the twenty-four
million dollar bond issue. 1t
isn't worth while to say more
Of the proposition than that it
was n piece of legislation
freighted with danger which for
q generation or more would have
proved a burden to all our peo-
pie, since the proposition is dead
beyond resurrection; but it is
worth while to direct the at
tention of the voters of this
section to the fact that one Of
we might in truth say the chief
proponents of the scheme was
Representative w. F. Stevenson,
of Cheraw. In the primary last
August Mr.. Stevenson was
candidate for Congress from
this (the Fifth district, and he
promises to again make the race
two years hence. The voters
ought to be able to find con-
siderable food for thought in
Mr.. Stevenson's attitude on the
bond issue proposition and to
decide therefrom whether he
would make a safe Congressman.
Meanwhile. it is worth noting
that he seems to have lost the
friendship of the Lancaster
News, which observes that
'Seaboard Bill wants to saddle
a bonded debt of $24, 900, 900 on
the taxpayers. We can
safely assert that the Chester
field statesman would not let out
his own money on any such
proposition"
