It is probably the most important record in a person's life because it is a proof of his or her legitimacy, his or her descent, his or her right to -"nherit property belonging to the family, and his or her age for schooling, voting and marrying. It will not be long before a birth certificate is required for almost every kind of service and occupation. It is really not safe to travel in any country without the legal authority of one's citizenship, whcih is supplied by a birth certificate. B Women B Hafl Cardui. the woman's H i tonic, helped Mrs. William Eversole, of Hazel j Patch, Ky. Read what 7H| she writes: "I had a mT general breaking-down Jjj of my health. I was in ^J| bed for weeks, unable to get up. I had such a weakness and dizziness, ... and the pains were very severe. A friend AH told me I had tried every- Mm thing else, why not MM' Cardui?... I did, and HTjsoon saw it was helping me... After 12 bottles, -Mm I am strong and well." MM ' take t CARDS! The Woman's Tonic jh Do you feel weak, diz- m MI zy, worn-out? ' Is your* lm' lackofgoodhealth caused Ew from any of the com- M plaints so common to MM JR women? Then why not ^ give Cardui a trial? It HaE should surely do for you what it has done for so many thousands of other women who suffered?it should help you back-to feP Ask some lady friend OH mm who has taken Cardui. Hk LM She will tell you how it Km helped her. Try Cardui. K AD Druggists JESPr ii ' r 111^ WINTHROP COLLEGE 5UHULAK5HIF ANL> LDlKAriLL EXAMINATION.
