DOWN IN BED
AND so WEAK
Lady Suffered Terribly for Eight
Weeks But Her Case Showed
Wonderful Improvement
After Taking Cardui.

johnson City, Tenn.-Mrs. NJ. r.
Scott, living near this town, states:
"About three years ago I was down in
bed terrible and so weak /
couldn't bear the sight of food. This
condition continued for about eight
weeks I thought I was go
ing to die, and knew I must get some
thing to do me some good. had
heard all my life of Cardui and the
good results obtained from its use.
So l decided to try it.
After about half bottle of Cardui
my appetite improved, then I was less
nervous. I kept it up until had
taken FIVE bottles-and such an i'm
provement! I gained flesh and now
am the picture of health, due, l be-
lieve, solely to the use Of Cardui. /
am the mother of ten children and
feel well and strong"
Cardui is a mild, medicinal tonic
for women. It has stood the most
severe of all tests-the test of time,
having been In use for over forty
years. 1t is composed Of purely veg.
etable ingredients, which have been
found to help build up the vitality
tone up the nerves, and strengthen
the womanly constitution.

A sunken treasure, perhaps worth
millions of dollars, definitely located,
easily accessible, and deposited but 4
few feet below the surface of the wa
ter lies in Achafalaya bay near the
mouth of the Atchafalaya river. 1t
Is known as Point au Fer Reef and is
built UP Of billions of oyster shells,
accumulated there through centuries.
It is estimated that the reef contains
from forty to fifty million cubic yards
of shell, worth 81 per cubic yard at
the dock in Morgan City, the nearest
shipping point to the reef.
The reef is to be thoroughly in
spected, accurately measured and ar
terward, it is hoped, exploited to the
last oyster she'll A party composed
of Commissioner NJ. L. Alexander OF
the State Department Of Conserva-
ton; State Highway Engineer Dun

lessee Of the reef from the C0nserva'
ton Department; Harry Gamble, as
slstant attorney general; Thomas H
W. D. Hayden, a highway contractor
of Galveston, Tex, and Allen Buie
visited the reef last week.
"If this reef is developed" said
Commissioner Alexander just before
embarking, ut will bring to life
dead asset that has existed for hun
dreds of years, constantly growing ii
value. The oyster requires salt wa
ter in large quantity to survive The
absence of this is the reason for the
great deposit of she'll which has &C
cumulated at Point au Fer.
