and the last three months / haven't
suffered any pain at all, and l do not
have those awful nervous spells.
Had l only known of this wonderful

saved many dollars, and days Of pain
and sorrow.
advise every woman who has tho
least symptom of womanly trouble, to
take Cardui."

TAFT TAKES CHARGE
OF RED CROSS

Washington, Nov 20-Former
President William II. Taft today
takes charge of the Red Cross, and
will preside at the meeting here.
President Wilson is pleased with the
acceptance of the former executive,
because of his experience in Red
Cross work when he was secretary of
war and president. Prof. Taft i'm
mediately takes active charge of the
central governing body, which passes
on all administrative affairs of the
organization.
1t is generally accepted that the
movement to combine all relief So

ALASKA PARTNERS RIVALS
FOR WASHINGTON OFFICE

juneau, Alaska, Nov. 20--Although
the election of territorial legisla-
ture and q delegate to congress Ia
still year away, the political lead
ers OF Alaska are getting their fences
into shape. The campaign for the Of
flee of delegate to Washington is like
ly to develop an interesting situation,
with two mining partners, Dan Suth-
erland and Frank Aldrich, running
against each other on different tick
cts. Aldricb and Sutherland are
members of the territorial senate
and, while running their business in
terests in harmony, have individual
aspirations in politics. 1t is probable
that James Wickersham may not be
candidate to succeed himself in
Washington, and in event he gives
up his seat, he will back Sutherland,
Aldrich is cousin of the late u. S.
Senator Nelson w. Aldrich of Rhode
Island, who was a leading Republi-
can statesman in his day. He went
through the fight for statehood in
Montana before coming to Alaska.
The campaign between the two
partners will be an interesting one il
it comes about, for both are promi-
nent with the miners. The decision
would rest on the issues for Alaska's
future, rather than on personality.
