OLD LADY
FEELING fine


Golden, Ii.-"Having used Cardui,
the woman's tonic, in my family, for .
number Of years." writes Mrs. Kate
Metz, Of this town, "and always with
such good results, feel it my duty to
write you about it, SO that you may
publish my letter.
My mother is living with me, and
she is 81 years old. For the last three
or four years, she has been troubled .
great deal with cramping spells, and
for days at time, she would have .
severe headache.
4 She read Of how much Cardui has
phelped other women who were sick
and ailing, and decided to give Il .
trial. She began taking it three times
. day, and since then has been getting
along simply fine.
Mother only used four bottles Of
Cardui, but she Is no longer troubled
with the severe headaches, and her
stomach Is 80 much stronger that she
can eat most anything.
We both feel that any lady who 10
not strong and well, would be greatly
benehted BY the use Of Cardui."

WORLDS SERIESTO
START OCTOBER I

New York, Sept. l3.-Owing to the
closeness Of the two major league PEN
nant races and tie resultant uncertainty
regarding the contenders for world 8
series honors, members of the National
Commission are seriously handicapped in
their Efforts TO draw up a schedule and
make other arrangements for the holding
Of the series, less than a month away.
Although the date for the opening
game has been unofficially set for Satur-
day, October 2, the fact that the commits
sion Is unable to determine at this time
which clubs will participate is hampering
the completion of the many details and
arrangements which they wish to clear
up well in advance II the series is to
move smoothly once the play is on,
This problem, 1t was announced here
yesterday will be fully discussed at Gin
cinnati on Friday, when the commission
and the club owners gather for the an
nual drafting of minor league players.
The situation may result, 1t was indi-
Gated, in the extraordinary procedure of
preparing a number Of worlds series
schedules covering National and Amer
lean League clubs which have a chance
to win the right to compete in the ba Sc
ball classic.
Only three weeks leeway will exist at
the time the magnates meet in Cincin-
natl. and It has been suggested in Off
cial baseball circles that the only way to
meet the conditions would be to adopt
this broad schedule plan, probably in
cluding Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Bos-
ton in the National League and Boston,
Detroit and Chicago in the American
League
