PROMPT SETTLEMENT
OF INSURANCE CLAIM.
Weldon, Ark., July 30, 1904.
To Whom it May Concern:
This is to certify that we had
our church house insured against
fire and wind in the American
Insurance Company of Little
Rock, Ark., and the house was
blown over in a storm. The
company very prompty put it
back at large expense in better
condition and stronger than it
was before the storm. We
thank the American Insurance
Company for its promptness in;
replacing our church to our en-;
tire satisfaction, and we recom-1
mend the company to those who
have houses to insure.

I MISS MONIE BOWEY, 1
L No. 38 Perry Street. DETROIT. MICHIGAN. J
S_ — *.-1"
A couple of winters ago I
slipped on a frozen sidewalk
ana fell flat on my back. On
being examined I found that
I had sustained internal inju
ries which laid me up for more
than two months. After that
I noticed that I had pains in
the back and groin which I
never had before. I doctored
and doctored for several
months but as the pains in
better I decided that I was not having the
right treatment. Reading in the papers
of the wonderful cures performed by
Wine of Cardui I wrote to one of the
parties and received a very satisfactory
reply and I immediately sent for some.
In a very short time I felt generally better
and after seven weeks faithful use I was
once more well and strong. I have never
had a sick hour since and I daily bless
your splendid medicine.
MONIE BO WHY.
IINE OF CARDUI is one medi
cine that should always be kept
on hand in every home for im
J mediate use when female weak
ness first makes its appearance. Miss
Bowey’s painful and dangerous accident
would, not have resulted bo seriously
had she taken Wine of Cardui promptly.
) Wine of Cardui makes wo
men more womanly by cur
ing their weakness and mak
ing them stranger. Wine of
Cardui cured Miss Bowey.
Asa medicine for all women
in every trying period of
their lives can you think of a
better medicine for yourself,
your sister, your daughter
I or your mother ? Can you
think of a more acceptable
' fn rri vo rrtnf
'than a bottle of this medicine which
will bring her health and happiness?
You are suffering ? Your duty is to
rid yourself of this pain. If your
daughter{ mother, sister or friend iB
sick and in need of relief, your duty is
equally great to them. Many women,
now well, owe their lives to friends
who brought them Wine of Cardui.
Wine of Cardui is adapted to wo
men at any age in any walk of life.
For the working woman it gives her
strength for her tasks and better
treatment than a doctor for very small
cost.
Your druggist will sell you a $1.00
bottle of Wine of Cardui. Secure the
medicine today. Take it in the privacy
of your home. Relief will come to you
as surely as you take it.

NO HOPE FOR MEDIATION.
Russia Desires to Regain Her
Lost Military Prestige.
London, Sept. 5.—Careful In
quiries in official and diplomatic
quarters here today establish the
fact that no hope prevails of the
termination of the war at this
moment as a result of the series
of victories obtained by the Jap
anese at Liao Yang. There has
been no interchange of official
views bv the neutral European
governments. What discussion
has occurred has been entirely
personal and has led to no results,
even to the extent of paving the
way to mediation. There is no
thought of intervention, the As
sociated Press has learned, nor
can there be any mediation with
out the consent of both parties,
and Russia, it is stated emphati
cally, does not find the moment
opportune to accept the good of
fices of any power. Japan, on
the other hand, is known to be
less discontented with the pres
ent situation and would be wil
j ling to enter upon peace negotia
I tions if Russia could be induced
to do so. But Russia feels, ac
cording to statements made in
Russian diplomatic circles here,
that she cannot afford to accept
peace until she has completely
vindicated her military prestige,
thereby reasserting her influence
in central and far eastern Asia.
