Has Achieved Such Wide
Popularity.
Established for nearly a cen

than 500,000 persons in the west
and southwest, the Twice-a-Week
Republic of St. Louis can justly
lay claim to that enviable dis
tinction, “Favorite Home Pa
per.”
It is great because it has al
ways aimed to inform, instruct
and entertain its readers on all
matters of public and home in
terest. In 1904 it will be espe
cially interesting and valuable.
Here are some reasons why you
i should subscribe for it:
This is campaign year and you
will want to be informed of the
1 movements of party leaders, re
: ports of the great national and
state conventions, the progress
of the campaign, reports of the
election, etc.
You will want to know all
about the WTorld’s Fair, to be
held in St. Louis from April 30
to December 1,1904.
You will be interested in and
kept well informed by the farm
visitor, a regular supplement of
the paper, prepared especially
for the farmer and his family.
You will want to know what
the world is doing in every line
of activity, and through the un
surpassed news and special ser
vice of the twice-a-week Repub
lic you will not be disappointed.
In short sketches, choice bits
of fiction, articles of interest to
women, children and household
suggestions the Twice-a-Week
Republic easily leads among the
weeklies of the great West.

health again by taking Wine of Cardui.
As a regulator of the menstrual periods
Wine of Cardui has never been known
to fail. It has seldom failed to restore
perfect health, even in the most persis
tent and aggravated case of weakness.
Mis3 Ida M. Snyder, of No. 535 Ber
gen Street, Brooklyn, N. Y., has used
Wine of Cardui and she says it helped
her into a new life. Health to Miss
Snyder is worth a great deal. She is
an attractive young woman with intel
lectual attainments and she occupies
the position of Treasurer of the Brook
lyn East End Art Club. This position
marks her as a person of intellect, cul
ture and refinement and it speaks highly
of the respect and trust her fellow
women have in her. She writes:
“If women would pay more attention
to their health we would r
have more happy wives,
mothers and daughters, and
if they would use more intel
ligence in the matter of medi
cines, observing results, they s
would find that the doctors'
prescriptions do not perform
the many cures they are given
credit for.
“In consulting with my
druggist he advised McEIree's
W inn
ford's Black-Draught, and so I took it
and have every reason to thank him for
a new life opened up to me with restored
health, and it pnly took three months to
cure me.”
You may secure the same relief as
Miss Snyder, if you take Wine of Cardui
as she took it. Thedford’s _ Black
Draught is the companion medicine of
Wine of Cardui and it is a liver and
bowel regulator which assists greatly
in effecting a cure. If you take these
medicines according to directions, the
relief and cure is simple. Some cases
are cured quickly and others take longer
because the disease has run longer.
Remember how Miss Snyder took Wine
of Cardui and has health. The same
medicines are offered you to-day.
