Pains disappeared "QEVERAL years ago I was ^ badly run-down,” says Mrs. John Bunch, R. F. D. 3, Colum bia, S. C. "I could not do any of my work. I was so weak I could not wash a dish- My hack and sides hurt me at times dreadfully. I dragged around until I finally gotdown in bed.” | Then, explains Mrs. Bunch, she happened to read about Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and decided to give it a thorough trial, the results of which she 'describes below: *Tt seemed to reach the cause of my trouble at once. I did not take it long before my appetite began to improve. I gained in weight from 114 pounds until now I weigh 125 pounds. I soon was able to be up around the house. I took up my household duties and was delighted with my return ing strength. "I now do all my own work. The pains in my sides and back have disappeared and I feel like a different person.” Cardui has been helping suf fering women for nearly 50 years. Bold by all druggists. CARDUI Death of William A. Coates Leads the British Public To Wonder What He Left. London.—Since Wm. A. Coats, of Daiskirth, Dumfrieshire, died recently, the public has been waiting to hear how many millions sterling he left. The name of Coats is one of the best known In all households, for what housewife is v there who does not use the useful spool of cotton which us ually bears the name of J. &. P. Coats, but unt'l she is reminded of it by the newspapers (usually when a Coats dies) the two, three or five cent spool does not seem to suggest millions. The combined fortunes of the Coats family would undoubtedly place them among the richest families in the world, but they get surprisingly li^e publicity. Of course, the Coats family owns banks and similar money producing organizations—in fact, they own near ly everything connected with the cot ton making trade, from shipping, rail-1 ^ "of 0 ttT r trnbu^ 0 houTTo Bro8 - Circus whi ch comes to Clinton for two per- the factories needed to produce the tools used in the Coats cotton factor ies, the yards needed to build ships to carry Coats cotton overseas and the i paper mills to supply them with wrap ping. But this is all done “sub rosa,’ far as the ordinary public is concerned and the names of the Coats mefely stand for reels of cotton. So it seems hardly possible that such a simple commodity could produce gigantic rev enues. Seven of the last eight Coats to die left fortunes of more than $5,000,000. The late Wm. A. Coats undoubtedly left more than $5,000,000 and there are at least three surviving members of the family whose fortunes run intp seven figures. This would give a total of eleven millionaires in one family. Janies Coats began business with a small factory at Firguslie, Scotland. So small was the business at first that James sent his-sons,and-Thom- as, into the engineering-trade. James, Jr., was retained to assists in the cot ton business, but this developed j amazingly that Peter eventually was recalled to help pile up the family fortunes and later Thomas gave up engineering to become a partner the cotton factories. The engineering training of Peter and Thomas had an important part in the amassing of millions, for they were able to design new machinery! for their business and see the advan tages of building factories for the manufacture of cotton making machin ery.— $ The original Coats anticipated* the American scheme for starting with J some small but indispensable domestic j commodity and* sticking to it exclu sively. The family handles sewing cotton from the cotton field right into j the work basket, and if the housewife cannot afford the higher grades bear ing the name of J. & P. Coats, she is buying the product of that family un der another name. When the American war between the states broke out the world’s cot ton supplies became endangered and the then James (formerly J.rmes, Jr.) Coats hastened to the United States to look after his markets. He remained there several years, and when the United States heavy protective duties began to menace his business he did not implore his government to inter vent. He built factories in America | and the original mills at Pawtucket developed into an enormous plant. He j also built mills in Canada. Thanksgiving Day approaches.

When the baby laughs, when the sun shines, when the flowers bloom when dinner sends out its inviting aroma; when any one of ten thous and things happen which attract your attention and gain your inter est, you are being advertised to. And that is the “why” and the whole purpose of any advertisement to gain your attention, secure your interest, arouse your desire; to tell you something you don’t know, to remid you of something you have forgotten, to convince you of some thing concerning w’hich you have been hesitating, to help you get the best at the least cost; , Why is an advertisement? You can wrap the whole question up in a few words: To make you happier. Think it over, and see if you don't find that to be the true answer.
