 Breakdown
But Health Restored to Texas Lady, Who Is Now We'll and Strong, Able to Do All Her
 Housework and More

Rosebud, Texas. Mrs. Annie Lange, of R.. F. D. No. 4, this place, writes as follows regarding her expe- rience with Cardui: Some time ago had a nervous breakdown of some. kind. - was very weak, and so nervous. It all seemed to come from l. trouble, for at I had fainting spells and suffered a great deal, but more from the weak, trembly, no-account feeling than any thing else I knew I needed tonic. and needed it badly.
 T began the use of Cardui, to see if couldn't get some strength, as I knew of other cases that had been helped by it's use. I felt better. soon saw great improvement, so kept it up.
 'I used seven bottles of Cardui, and can say the money was well spent, for I grew well and strong. Now able to do all my housework and a great deal of work besides"
 If you are rundown, weak, ner- vous and suffer from the ailments pe- culiar to women, it is very likely that Cardui will help you, in the way it has helped thousands of others during the past 40 years.

FURTHER RALLY OF
 8 CENTS MADE IN
 BRITISH EXCHANGE
Over Possibility of Sixth Short Cotton Crop Causes Ex- cited Advance In Future
 Market
By Associated Press

New York, April 5.--A further rally Of almost cents in British exchange was the outstanding feature of todays international market. The recovery was surprising to many because of the possible complications arising from the Tranco-German situation, but this was offset by announcement of supple plentary gold imports.
 Demand bills on London rose to s4.06A and cables to s4.OS in the Course Of the day, but these were shaded to $4.01% and $4.02A, respectively, after the close of the stock market.
 At their maximums the London rates were about 10 cents over last weeks best and almost 90 cents over the low of February 4, when demand on Lon- don fell to ,$3,19 to the pound. To- days quotations are, in fact, the high est since the latter part of last No- vember and were interpreted as bear ing testimony to Britain's recovery of her overseas trade.
 French, Italian and other European remittances were not disturbed by the days news, but dealings in all but British exchange were relatively nom ina1

 MARKED SOCIALISM
Fess Warns Against Presi- dents Trend Toward Ma tionalizatiOn of In-
 dustries
By As,ocIa,.d Prs.

Providence R. l., April 5.-Condemna- tion of the marked socialism of Presi- dent Wilson," and warning against the
 trend toward naturalization of indus tries as suggested in hls partiality to the soviet plan," were voiced at the repuh- lican state convention today by Repre- sentative Simeon D. Fess. of Ohio.
 "The republican party believes that the progress of a nation depends upon the freedom of initiative in the exercise of talent in invention and discovery" the speaker said. Tt condemns the marked socialism of President Wilson, who under the stress of war has extended government activities to cover all pro ductive agencies and who has called to Washington the strangest polyglot of so- cialists ever invited into positions of re- sponsibliy. We deplore his effort to un- stabilize the business of the country and warn the nation against the trend toward standardization of industries as suggested in his partiality to the societ plan.' The state convention and the district conventions held at the same time elected
 an unpledged delegation of. ten members 10 the national convention, without oppo- | stion. Governor Beekman headed thC | four delegates-at-large.
 l The platform declared for ratification | of the peace treaty with such reserva-
 tions as will fully safeguard America favored large merchant marine, reduc- tion of government expenditures, an ade quate standin garmy, with citizens re
