“I was weak and
could not do my work,”
writes Mrs. C. O. Sut-
ton, of Wlizabeth, Ind.
“I had pains in my
back ani side. It
seemed like when I
would get up, I would drag around
to do my work, and had bad head-
ache. My mother told me to try
Cardui. She had taken it herself,
and had found it a good medicine.
I took several bottles of Cardui and
It helped me very much.” fn-u

week for several weeks—and see how
Nature rewards you with health.
Calotabs purify the blood by acti-

Goodyear Dealer in Sales Contest
“It’s difficult to get a correct
idea of the size and detail of the
Navy Airship USS Akron from
pictures,” declared C. W. Patton,
local Goodyear tire dealer.
“That's why I’m out to make my
quota in Goodyear dealers’ Third
Annual Zeppelin Sales race be-
cause the dealers who make the
highest per cent of sales to quota
win a trip to Akron, and a. chance
to see this Leviathan of the air at
the Goodyear-Zeppelin dock where
it is being built. The Zeppelin
SalesContest ends in August about
the time the USS Akron is expect-
ed to be making its tial flights so
fortunate dealers who earn the
trip will get a close-up view of the
