"A SPLENDID TONIC /"
Says Hixson Lady Who, On Doc
tors Advice, Took Cardui
And Is Now Well.

Hixson, Tenn.-"About' 10 years ago
I was..." says Mrs. J. B. Gadd, Of
this place. 81 suffered with a pain in
my left side, could not sleep at night
with this pain, always in the left
side...
My doctor told me to use Cardui. I
took one bottle, which helped me and
after my baby came, / was stronger
and better, but the pain was still
there.
1 at first let it go, but began to get
weak and in a rundown condition,
SO l decided to try some more Cardui,
which l did.
This last Cardui which took made
me much better, in fact, cured me. It
has been a number of years, still /
have no return of this trouble.
/ feel it was Cardui that cured me,
and recommend it as a splendid fe-
male tonic"
Don't allow yourself to become
weak and rundown from womanly
troubles. Take Cardui. It should sure
ly help you, as it has so many thou
sands of other women in the past 40
years. Headache, backache, sideache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, tired-out
feeling, are all signs of womanly trou-
BILE. Other women get relief by taking
Cardui. Why not you? All druggists.

ing the statement that he left Londo>
when an air raid warning was given,
has been withdrawn, the terms being
an apology for the publication and
the payment of & certain sum, the
amount of which is not mentioned,
to indemnity the premier for his costs
in the action.
Mr.. Lloyd George, in giving evil
dence, said that on the night in ques,
ton. he left with General Sir VIM. R.

have interviews with the French prem
Ter and chiefs of staff
The raid was in progress when they
reached Charing Cross station. As
