"Much Relieved"
Says Lady After
Taking CARDUI

Although they may be very active
and apparently in good health, many
women, at certain times, will do well
to take Cardui. It may relieve some
of the nagging symptoms that are SO
annoying every month.
Mrs. F. T Foster, of Greensburg,
KY, writes that she has derived
great benefit" from Cardui. Before
taking Cardui, was weak and ex-
tremely nervous, and suffered from
sleeplessness. This made me tired
and worn in daytime. My back ached
continually. Being an active woman,
7 did not want to continue in this
condition. Having heard a great deal
about Cardui, I found, after just a
few bottles, was much relieved. I
continued taking Cardui and was so
much helped.
Of course, if Cardui does not bene-
fit YOU, consult physician -(Adv)

rived from "bous" (the ancient sacred
OK, the semblance Of whose horns
were stamped upon those early cakes.
The substitution of the cross marks,
in place of the horn marks, appears
to have been made by the Greeks
solely as a matter of convenience In
dividing the bun into four parts. This
rather blasts the theory held by most
that the cross is there as q purely
Christian symbol, especially indicative
Of Good Friday.
In England, for many years. Good
Friday was ushered in with the cry
of the street vendors, Hot cross
buns!" Men, women and children
used to be early astir to supply the
inevitable demand, and swarmed about
the streets carrying their wares
wrapped in flannel in a basket. In
the town of Chelsea there was an old
bun house that was a famous meeting
place on Good Friday mornings. Here
as many as 100000 buns are said to
have been soil in a single day!
IN WASHINGTON many of the bak-
cries, both large and small, bow to
tradition by baking dozens and dozens
of delicious hot cross buns for Fri
day breakfast tables. Place your order
for them early, for the demand often
seems to exceed the supply-partic-
ularly in households where there are
children who delight in the crusty,
sweet bread. And, il you wish to
follow the old superstition, be sure to
save one bun from this Good Friday to
