SEARCY FEARFUL
OF LOSING ROAD.
The Rock Island surveyors are
between Searcy and Center Hill,
with their heads turned toward
■ the south, possibly en route to
Beebe and Argenta, says the
Searcy Citizen. This means that
the powers that be have not de
cided where the road will be
located. Searcy having every
natural advantage seems to be
the logical place. She is on the
direct line from Kansas City to
New Orleans; she is at the north
' end of a short branch line that
the Rock Island bought after a
thorough investigation of its
probable usefulness in filling an
important link in their proposed
long chain; she is nearer to Set
tlement and Leslie than any
other point to which the Rock
Island has a road; she has the
most level and least expensive
territory through which to build
a road.

I WINE or CARDUI
No. 48 Straight St., Gkakd Rapids, Mich.
I am pleased to endorse Wine of Cardui as I found it so beneficial to j
restore my strength after my baby was born. I could not seem to get well
enough to be up and able to do my work, and as I had been in bed for six
weekB this was rather serious, but soon after I began to use Wine of Cardui I
could see that I was beginning to get back my strength. In another week
I was able to sit up most of the day and in a month I was able to be up and
do most of my work. I think it is o /t / V
splendid medicine for a woman and
can certainly give it highest praise. W0MAW.a ,„D0BTBIAIl IiBAODH. 4
