White River had risen to 17

Thursday, or .6 of a foot in the
past twenty-four hours. The riv

ever, and the rise in Blaek will

flow, unless further rains set in.

HURLEY WILL FILED.
The last will and testament of
! the late Captain George W. Hur
ley was filed Thursday in the of
fice of the county clerk. The in
I strument was made Dec. 24,1903,
; and the author expressed the de
| sire that W. A. Billingsley be
I made its executor.
By the terms of the will, all the
! personal property, with the ex
| ception of the homescead, which
I is left to Mrs. Joe Deaderick, is to
j be sold and a part of the real es
| tate if necessary to make up $17,
j 000. Of this, $1,000 goes to Miss
Mae Edmonds, of Brownsville,
Maryland, as an expression of es
teem and veneration, and in ap
preciation of the kindness of her
parents to the deceased in his
boyhood days. The remaining
$16,000 is to be divided equally
and used to purchase a life annu
ity by Miss Willie Morrison and
Mrs. Joe Deaderick.
The real property is to be left
intact and revenue from same
divided equally between Miss
Willie Morrison and Mrs. Joe
Deaderick, until the youngest
child of the latter becomes of
age, then to be sold for cash and
divided equally between Miss
Willie Morrison and the children
of Mrs. Joe Deaderick.
NO RULE BUT WORK.
“The man who needs rules for
succeeding in life will never suc
ceed,” so says Benjamin L. Win
ched, who has succeeded. A few
years ago Mr. Winched was clerk
in a railroad office at $9 a week.
Today he sits in a cushioned chair
as president of the Frisco system
of railroads and draws a salary
equal to that of the chief execu
tive of the nation.
While talking of success as
measured by dollars and cents,
there is something in Mr. Win
chell’s remark. There is a whole
system of literature founded on
this word, there is a magazine
with a large circulation,and books
I and periodicals contain inter
| views with successful persons
| who lay dowrn rules for the guid
i ance of young men. The advice
; is good enough in its way, but
| being pressed for some rule
! which might be quoted, Mr. Win
Ichell said: “I haven’t any rule
ibut work.”

“Your booklet came to my 1
home like a message of health
when I had suffered with
headache, backache and bear
ing-down pains, I was weak,
nervous and hysterical and
had not consulted any doctor,
thinking it would pass away
in time, but instead I found
that the pains increased and
were more frequent, I de
cided to try Wine of Cardui
f and in a short time was much
improved* It seemed to act luce a cnarm*
I kept up the treatment and the result
was most satisfactoiy. Words fail to ex
press my gratitude for the suffering that
is now saved me. I am in fine health*
physically and mentally. I can only say
‘thank you', but there is much more in
my heart for you.”
Br~—IEARING-DOWN pains are the
worst that women know. If
you are suffering from this trou
ble 70U need not be uncertain
about it. The pain3 in the abdomen
and back that feel as if heavy weights
were pulling down on the nerves of the
i stomach are “bearing-down pains .
They may not be particularly severe at
present but they are growing worse.
That headache which nearly drives you
rliatrar.ted now is caused by the terrible
nervous tension. The nerves
soon begin to give way under
the strain. You perhaps jump
at any unusual disturbance,
or laugh or weep, hysteri
cally, at no apparent cause.
That is what Miss Fay Lee,
603>£ North Seventh Street,
Kansas City, Kansas, was
coming to when she rescued
herself by taking Wine of
Cardui. The Wine made {
her a strong, healthy woman
• i 1 __ J « „ m n 1 K Vl Ol*
again, as it ^ *“-*-*v*-# --
women strong and healthy. By induc
ing regular menstruation the entire
system is relieved of the terrible wasting :
drains. The ligaments which hold the
womb in place are strengthened by a
healthy flow and that organ is returned
to its normal position. Returning
health is the result. This is what
Wine of Cardui has done for thousands
of the best women in America.
If you need advice write The Ladies’
Advisory Department, The Chatta
nooga Medicine Company, Chattanooga,
Tenn., describing all your symptoms
freely, and a letter of advice will be
sent you. Secure a $1.00 bottle of Wine a
of Cardui from your druggist to-day.
