A CONFESSION
Hopes Her Statement, Made Public,
will Help Other Women.
Hines, Ala.—“I must confess”, says
Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, of this place, “that
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, has done me
a great deal of good.
Before I commenced using Cardui, I
would spit up everything I ate. I had a
Bred, sleepy feeling all the time, and was
Irregular. I coula hardly drag around,
and would have severe headaches con
tinuously.
Since taking Cardui, I have entirely
quit spitting up what 1 eat. Everything
seems to digest all right, and 1 have
gained 10 pounds in weight.”
If you are a victim of any of the numer
ous ills so common to your sex, it is
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
. won't regret it. Your druggist sells it

Liquor Fight Is On.
Pine Bluff, Jan. 31.—Prelimin
ary "Purring on the part of at
torneys this morning when the
petitioners’ side of the liquor
nenrmg case was taken up a
livsh before County Judge Plril
poi, brought out a strong ruling
on his part.
Throughout the time the re
monstrants had been placing wit
nesses on the stand there had
been numerous instances where
names had been challenged be
cause one person signed the
name or names of others besides
themselves. In many cases hus
bands had signed for their wives
or wives had signed for their
husbands, and friends for friends
or relatives.
In these instances Judge Phil
P°t ruled that if the signatures
as written by another person is
authorized it is valid. Attor
ney Sorrells, for the remons
trants, asked Judge Philpot to
reserve his opinion on this one
point as at the close of evidence
he would present sufficient legal
proof to show that these names
are invalid.
On the other hand, Attorney
Jones, representing the liquor in
terests, declared he would also
support the validity of such
names by means of high court
decisions.
There was a battle of legal wit
at first as to how the petitioners
would proceed to offset the
challenges on the part of the re
monstrants, but once this was
done away with, the proceedings
were carried on with rapidity.
Quite a number of persons
gave their addresses on the li
quor petition as simply State of
Arkansas, and the addresses
were challenged as being insuf
I
ficient- Tn several instances the
liquor petitioners produced per
sons giving that class of address
and through them proved that
they are residents of this city.
It was also sought to prove that
many who were rated as non
residents. were in reality resi
dents of Pine Bluff and legally
able to sign the petition.
From the standpoint of the pe
titioners, so far as their first
day’s proceedings go, a success
was attained in overturning the
greater portion of proof offered
by the remonstrants. If the
evidence offered by the liquor
petitioners is to be taken for
granted, in three-fourths of in
stances they succeeded in es
tablishing names on the petition
1 which had been challenged.
•Judge Philpot, however, is not
making individual decisions as
to signers of the petition, wheth
er their names are to stand or
be stricken off, and hence there
is no way of arriving at an es
timate of what will be the ulti
mate strength of the testimony
offered.
That considerable progress was
made during the day’s proceed
ings is indicated by the fact
that 40 witnesses, and some of
them at length, too, were exam
ined during the afternoon ses
sion. Judge Philpot announced
at adjournment that the case

When the stomach begins to show
