fdlt miserable. A friend at
mine told me of ,
CARDUI
The Woman's Tonls
and I then remembered my
mother used to take it. . . After
the first bottle 1 was better. 1
began to fleshen up and 1 re

"Few if any organisations have done
what Salvation Army has in going
to the byways and highways to help
the friendless and the down and out.
They have sent courage into the army
of the discouraged, sunshine into dark
places and dried many a tear stained
face. The campaign for a new homo
is to my mind most worthy of sup
port. The army has the reputation of
making a dollar go farther than any
other religious organization. Success
