Weak In Back
and Sides
"Before tho birth of my
little fitrt," eayn Mrs. Lena
Standi, of R. P. D. 2, Mat
thews, Mo., "I was so weak
in my back and sidles I could
not go about. I was too
weak to stand up or do any
work. I felt iiko nty buck
was coming in two. I lost
weight. I didn't eat any
thing much and was so rest*
lms 1 couldn't >'l?-<p nights.
"My mother used to tako
For Female Troubles
so I sent to get* it. I im
proved after xuy first bottle.
Cardul Is certainly a great
help for nervousness and
weak back. 1 took six bot
tles of Cardul and by then 1
was well and strong, Just
did fine from then on. Cardul
helped me no much."
Thousands of weak, suf
fering women have taken
Cardul, knowing that it had
helped their mothers or their
friends, and soon gained
strength and got rid of their
palm?.
Cardul should .do you a lot
of* good.

The esteemed Selma Times-Jour*
i>a! satisfies oui; curiosity about the
in.oim's of the wprld's sovereigns.
I; is always ? interesting to read oj
hear a statement (if the income of
people, particularly those who are
more or less in the public eye.
The best paid king is the ruler of
Siani, next Victor Kmanuel of Italy.
The lowest income is received by the
chief'ruler of the richest people ever
known to earth. Here is the state
ment of incomes received b\ kings,
as well as that received by our presi
dent :
The king of Siani $?'?,500,000
The king of Italy .'{,200,000
The king of England ... .. 2,900,000
The emperor of Japan . . . . 2,250,000
The king of Spain 1,175,009
The king of the Serbs,
Croats and Slovenes . . . . 055,500
The king of Koumania . . ... 500,000

The king, of Denmark *>00,000
The king of Norway . . . . , . 2-1,000

Of course, expenses of sovereigns
are high, their social obligations are
heavy, their tenure of office uncer
tain, their position hazardous. - -
