You may wonder why Cardui is so successful, after
other remedies have failed. The answer is that Cardui is
successful,' 1' .-cause it is composed of scientific ingredients,
that act curativcly on ihe womanly system. It is a medicine
^ lor women, and for women only. It builds, strengthens, and
k restores weal- and ailing women, to health and happiness.
If you suffer like Mrs. Fincher did, take Cardui. It

I This petition has been very lib-

time when about 100 signatures had
, been attached to the petition, there
had been only one refusal. The rea-|

that it looked like a scheme to
frame up a precinct that would like-

and that he was perfectly satis-

Later a signer had his name eli-

tains the following dispatch:
Austin Texas, July 2 8.—Lieuten-
ant Governor A. U. Davidson, who
arrived for the special session to-
day, authorized the statement that
hebelleves that the Texas demo-
cratic party should expel the pro
hibitionists and leave them to or-
ganize a party of their own if
they will not cease agitation.
He says that the question of pro-
hibition has been settled twice by
tlie democratic party, which nas
gone against statewide restrictions,
and that he thinks it is . time for
that organization to put a top to
agitation of the question.—Cuero
