World Wide Depression,
United Press Dispatch.
Washington, D. C., June 13.—
Whatever there is of industrial
inactivity in the United States,
is simply our share of a slight
world-wide depression. The
wheat crop is good and excellent
prospects for other crops go a
long ways toward balancing this
depression.
Secretary of Agriculture Hous
ton declares that com looks
promising, and other grain
seems in excellent condition. He
thinks crops will furnish'plenty
of work for six months at good
pay.

feats Daughter’s Untimely End,
Ready, fCy.—" I was not able to do
anything for nearly six months,” writes
Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, "and
was down in bed tor three months.
I cannot tell you how I suffered with
my head, and with nervousness and
womanly troubles.
Our family doctor told my husband he
could not do me any good, and he had
to give it up. We tried another doctor,
but he did not help me.
At last, my mother advised me to take
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. I thought
it was no use for i was nearly dead and
nothing seemed to do me any good. Bui
l took eleven bottles, and now 1 am able
to do ail of my work and my own
washing.
I think Cardui is the best medlcke In i
the world. My weight has increased, j
and 1 look the picture of health. ”
If you suffer from any of the ailments i
peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui j
today. Delay is dangerous. We know
•t will help you, for it has helped so j
many thousands of other weak women
in the past 50 years.
At all druggists.
