Rags!
Millions of dollars' worth
of Rags collected
annually
The General says:
My output of Certain-teed
Roofing has grown to such enor
mous proportions that I am hav
ing difficulty in getting enough
rags of good grade to supply this
demand.
I also need a lot of rags of lower
grade for making my standard
quality roofing, and also a still
lower grade for making my Com
petition quality roofing.
I will pay the best market price
Jot roofing rags anywhere in any
quantity. If they can be shipped
in carload quantities and in as
sorted grades, we can have them
shipped direct to any of our big
mills, but if in smaller quantities
or unassorted, we will arrange
with one of our packers or as
s sorters near you, to buy your rags
and prepare them for our use in
the different grades.
*
Churches, Societies, i
Charitable Institutions
others are making good
P revenue by collecting all kinds of old
rags. We consume scores and scores
of tons of these rags every day—in fact
the total rag sales of the country amount
to several million dollars a year. It’s
* an easy way to make money. The rags
are generally given to the collectors or
at least sold for very little. Every kind
of rag can be used for something. Use
this plan to pay off your church debt
or raise the minister’s salary. The
results are surprising.

County Judge Predicts Victory j
For Act No. 3.
Thousands of dollars will be
I saved the taxpayers of Arkan
sas through the passage of Act
No. 3, according to Hon. E. E.
i McCall, County and Probate
Judge of Ouachita county. He I
has been making a careful study
of the provisions of Act No. 3 !
and the effect it will have upon j
the- administration of county af
fairs after its passage. Au
thority is given the opinion of;
Judge McCall by virtue of the !
record he has made in adminis
tering the affairs of Ouachita j
county during the two years I
in which he has served. His
work on the highways is pro
nounced by Ouachita county peo- ]
pie to be a credit to the county
and to the judge, who will be re
elected in September, having re
ceived the necessary party en
dorsement in the Democratic
primary.
“No honest official,” says
Judge McCall,, “has anything j
to fear from the adoption of j
the new publicity law. It will
enlighten the people regarding
the expenditure of their money
and put a curb on dishonest pol
iticians. therefore savintr the
taxpayers thousands of dollars.”
In regard to the matter in
which Judge McCall’s endorse
ment of the publicity act is
looked upon in Ouachita county,
F. R. Lapham of Camden, says:
“Judge McCall is not given to
hasty opinions and his endorse
ment of the publicity act will be
accepted by the people of Oua
chita county as the honest o
pinion of a man who has given
the matter much thought and
who sincerely desires that the
people obtain that which will
be a practical benefit to them,
and to which they are, justly en
titled.”
Mr. Lapham says that Oua
chita county will roll up a heavy ,
majority for Act No. 3 in the j
September election.

FORMER ATTY. GEN. NORWOOD
ENDORSES THE MUNICIPAL
BOND AMENDMENT.
Former Atty. Gen. Hal L. Norwood
has written Mayor Chas. E. Taylor of
Little Rock, as follows:
“I am in reecipt of your communica
tion in which you remind me that 1
publicly opposed the adoption of the
Bond Amendment submitted to the
electors two years ago and asking
whether I am now for or against pro
posed Amendment No. 14, which if
adopted will authorize cities and towns
to issue bonds, under certain restric
tions, to raise funds for certain pur
poses when authorized by a majority
of the electors of such city or town
that shall submit the matter to an
election.
“I beg to r(*ly that my opposition
to the amendment two years ago was
not based on any prejudice against the
issuance of bonds but because of cer
tain defects in* that proposed amend
ment. I am glad to observe tha'
Amendment No. 14 has entirely elimi
nated the objectionable features of
the one proposed two years ago and
that it includes safeguards and restric
tions that should have been incor
porated in the other proposed amend
ment.
“Notwithstanding what was regard
ed by some as serious defects in the
other amendment a large majority of
those voting upon the question ap
proved it, but it failed to become a
part of the Constitution because not
more than three amendments could be
ndonted at the same election. Since
a majority of the people were in favor
of the other amendment, notwithstand
ing the alleged defects, Amendment
No. 14 will receive a large majority at
the coming election if the people will
study its provisions and read the able
arguments presented by your execu
tive committee in favor of its adop
tion. The provision of the Constitu
tion of Arkansas adopted in 1874 pro
hibiting municipaliaies from issuing
bonds was the result of conditions
that existed immediately after the war
which had bankrupted tjie Southern
states and their political sub-divisions.
Those conditions no longer exist, but
Arkansas is about the only state that
has failed to realize that the condi
tions are now different to what they
were 40 years ago upon the matter of
issuing bonds. .
“In 1875 when Alabama adopted a
Constitution, prompted by the same
reasons that had caused Arkansas to
prohibit the issuance of bonds, it
provided that the cities and towns of
Alabama should not issue bonds, but
in 1901 Alabama adopted a new consti
tution which provides that munici
palUies may issue bonds when au
thorized by a majority of the quali
fied voters of the municipalities vot
ing upon the proposition.
“In 1904 the people of Texas *adopted
an amendment to the Constitution au
thorizing municipal corporations to
issue bonds.
“In 1875 when Missouri adopted a
Constitution it had not suffered like
Arkansas and Alabama and it au
thorized the issuance of bonds by
municipalities not exaeedlng 5 per
cent of the value of the property of
such municipality but as the years
went by the people of Missouri realized
that the limitation was too small and
therefore in 1902 the Constitution wal
amended placing the limitation at
10 per cent.
"In 1877 those who framed the Con
stitutton for Georgia appear to have
realized that there would not be a re
turn of the chaotic conditions existing
immediately after the war and pro
vided that bonds might be Issued
by the vote of two-thirds of the elec
tors.
“In 1879 Ixniisiana took the same
view of the matter as Georgia and
provided in its Constitution that no
municipal tax should exceed in any
one year ten mills on the dollar oi
valuation but that for the purpose of
public improvement the rate of taxa
tion might be increased when au
thorized by a majority of the lectors
of a municipality.
“This appears to have proven satis
factory because when Louisiana adopt
ed a new Constitution in 1898 there
was incorporated in it a provision
relating to the issuance of bonds al
most similar to the section of the
Constitution of 1879.
“Tennessee took a more hopeful
view of the situation than Alabama and
Arkansas, soon after the war, and in
its Constitution of 1870 incorporated
no prohibition against towns and cities
issuing bonds.
“North Carolina believing that the
majority would always do what was
right, regardless of the conditions of
the times, in its Constitution of 187H
provided that when a majority of the

Hines, Ala.—"I must confess”, says
Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, of this place, '’that
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, has doue mo
a great deal of good.
Before I commenced using Cardui. 1
would spit up everything l are. I ban a
tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and was
irregular. I could hardly drag around,
and would have severe headaches con
tinuously.
Since taking Cardui, I have entirely
quit spitting up what I eat Everything
seems to digest all right, and I have
gained 10 pounds in weight”
II you are a victim of any of the numer

wrong to suffer.
For half a century, Cardui has been re
lieving just such ills, as is proven by the
thousands of letters, similar to the above,
which pour into our office, year by year.
Cardui is successful because it is com
posed of ingredients which act specifically
on the womanly constitution, and helps
build the weakened organs back to health
and strength.
Cardui has helped others, and will help
you, too. Get a bottle today. You
