A CONFESSION
Hopes Her Statement, Made Public,
 will Help Other Women.

Hines, Ala.--''I must confess", says Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, of this place, "tl1ai Cardui, the woman's tonic, has done ms R great deal of good.
 Before l commenced using Cardul, | would spit Up everything l ate. had q tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and was irregular. could hardly drag around, and would have severe headaches con- hnuously.
 Since taking Cardui, l have entirely quit splitting up what 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 a century, Cardui has been re- lieving 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 1t Is com. posed ofingredients which act ctspecifically on the womanly constitution, and helps build tile weakened organs back to health and strength.
 Cardui has helped others, and win help you, too. Get bottle today. You won't regret it. Your druggist sells It.

Liquor Dealers Confer.
ecial to Independent.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, April 10.-Liquor dealers from all sections of Ar kansas arrived in Little Rock Thursday and remained in con- ference during the entire day. The conference was continued over through Friday, and when it is over the liquor men expect to have we'll defined plans for their future action, as controlled by the Going bill.
 The liquor dealers decline to discuss their plans, but it is re- ported no effort will be made to either seek the repeal of the act by invoking the initiative, under the Initiative and Referendum Amendment to the Constitution, or make a fight for the repeal of the bill in the next legislature. The fight in the legislature will be the last resource, for if the question is taken there for set clement the saloons would be closed for several months before a bill could become effective, even if it was passed early in the session.

Arkansas Men Working For
 Great Drainage Congress.
V. For

! Seven prominent citizens of
 Arkansas have been appointed
 a special committee to secure a strong delegation from this state | to the fourth annual meeting of the National Drainage Congress
 at Savannah, Ga., April 22-25, inclusive. They are, Senator Joe IT. Robinson, vice-president for Arkansas; Congressman T. H.
 Caraway, member of the Gen.
 eral Educational Committee; $.
 E. Simmonson of Luxora, execu-
 tive committeeman; Dr. Wm. H.
 Deaderick of Hot Springs, sec-
 secretary of the Section on Ma laria Eradication; Dr. Morgan
 Smith of Little Rock, member Of the Section on Malaria Eradi-
 cation; Charles H. Miller, of Lit
 tie Rock, and s. c. Dowell of Walnut Ridge, member of the General Educational Committee. Arkansas is vitally interested in the success of the National Drainage Congress. In addition to suffering from floods and ov- erfows in the valleys of the Mis- sissippi, Arkansas, Ouachita, Red River, White, St. Francis, end other rivers, Arkansas has B. 912,350 acres of swamp lands within her border. If reclaimed and converted into farms these acres would add enormously to the agricultural wealth of the state, and increase the annual value of farm crops by at least $100,O00,000. These rich acres which at present produce noth-
 ing but i'll health and suffering, will be reclaimed and turned into rich farms if the efforts of the National Drainage Congress
 are successful.

Kirby Visits Poinsett Again.

Jonesboro, April 9.-Judge w. F. Kirby passed through this city this morning en route to Harrisburg. He was joined here by Attorney N. F. Lamb, who, with Attorney J. J. Mardis, of Harrisburg, will represent Judge Kirby in adjusting the vote of that county.
 Judge Kirby stated while here that he had no fear of the vote as given by l.. Clyde Going, be- ing permitted to stand, when the state executive committee had gone over the situation there, as the statements from hundreds Of reliable citizens of Poinsett county would be had to the ef- feet that not more than 1,200 votes were cast in the recent pri- mary and that there was no question of his receiving over five hundred votes in that coun- ty. A demand will be made for a copy of the poll books and each vote will be looked after carefully and an effort will be made to get the exact vote as it was cast in that county.

Ring Around the Moon;
Storm Is Coming Soon

Last night the moon had a golden
ring" yes this is a quotation from
Longfellow but it also is what many
FL Pasoans observed with interest
The moon. which was in the first quar-
ter, was surrounded by a clearly de-
fined ring OF light almost as bright as
itself, that was plainly visible for sew
eral hours in the early part Of the
evening
Henry l. Capen, The HeraIds sky
authority, says the tradition is that
when this astronomical phenomenon
appears. it is the sign Of a severe storm
and that the number Of stars within
the ring denote the number Of DAYS
that VIII elapse before the storm
breaks. There were two bright stars
clearly discernible within the ring last
night The appearance of a ring around
the moon has long been regarded by
sailors as the fOrerunner Of Q violent
storm and LOngfellow has brought out
this in his poem THE wreck Of the
schooner Hesperus."
