The mile of cement road that is
coming to Otero county is causing
much comment among the citizens of
our county seat. La Junta is to have
half mile of this road and can't
agree just where to place 1t. 1t does
not make any particular difference
where this is placed as the Santa Fe
trail will be paved within a few years

Sickness or Laziness

I've never felt as good as new
since | was laid up with the flu.
My wife refers to MANY chores
both i'll the house and out OF
doors. which should be done
without delay, but am weak,
as weak as whey simply lack
the strength to go and shovel
forty tons of snow. If | were
only feeling good I'd gladly
bring in coal and wood, and feed
the warthog in his pen, and
hump around like other men.
But | feel like cast-off shoe
since | was laid up with the flu.
My wife regards my tale of woe
as faxed up stuff that isn't so.
You sped along on ninble feet
to see that dog fight down the
street; you vaulted DER a six
foot fence and like race horse
sprinted hence, when you were
told by Neighbor Brown that
some ones house was burning
down But when / Say the roof
leaks rain, you're twisted up
with poignant pain; you're all
unnerved and out OF whack. and
have the fantods i'll your back"
Alas. no sympathy is mine
alone | weep the scalding brine.
My wife at my complaints has
laughed; she thinks I'm work
ing Aesop's graft she SCOTS at
crippled lung.and limb, and talks
about the Brothers Grimm. Yet

Five Bottles Of Cardui
Made Her Well.

Kathleen, Fla.-Mrs. Dallas Prime.
Of this place, says: "After the birth
Of my last child. II got very much
rundown and weakened, so much
that could hardly do anything at
all. I was so awfully nervous that
I could scarcely endure the least
noise. My condition was getting
worse all the time...
I knew I must have some relief or

serious condition for I felt so badly
and was so nervous and weak could
hardly live. My husband asked DR..
about my taking Cardui. He
said, It's good medicine, and good
for that trouble, so he got me 5 bot
tles.. After about the second bottle I
felt greatly improved. before taking
it my limbs and hands and arms
would go to sleep. After taking It,
however, this poor circulation disap-
peared. My strength came back to
me and was soon en- the road to
health. After the use Of about 5 bot
ties, could do all my house-work
and attend to my six children be-
sides.'
You can feel safe In giving Cardui
thorough trial for your troubles. It
contains no harmful or habit-forming
drugs, but is composed of mild, tege-
table, medicinal Ingredients with no
bad after-effects. Thousands of women
have voluntarily written, telling of
the good Cardui has done them. It
should help you. too. Try 1t. q 74
