An utoniihing and apparently
unique proceeding on the part of the
State Bank examiner was the closing of
the Bank of Brunson Saturday. No
creditor has given the bank any trouble
and the bank has not failed to meet any
demand of the depositors. In the clos
ing of the bank no fraud or shortage is
charged. The depositors do not criti
cise the bank officials and many have
voluntarily offered their help, and ex
press confidence that their money is
safe. The Bank of Brunson is one of
the oldest banks in Hampton County,
organized in 1901, and has resources
amounting to over 1200,000.
There is not the unrest or excitement
usually attendant upon trouble of this
kind. This is a hard season of the
year, and the closing of the bank works
a great hardship upon the community
in having so much money tied up.
The people express confidence in the
belief that this trouble will be only tern
porary. They have great confidence
in the president^ who is not a stranger
in Brunson but who is a native citizen,
and has accumulated quite a fortune
during the last twenty^ years by hard
work and good judgment and careful,
judicious financing.

Alter Four Yean of Discouraging
Conditions, Mn. Bullock Gave
Dp in Despair. Husband
Came to Rescue.
Catron, Ky.—In an interesting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: “I suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, 1 could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all.. At times, 1 would have severe pains
in my left side.
The doctor was called in, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but 1 was
soon confined to my bed again. After
that, QOdnng seemed to do me any good.
1 had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle ot
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.” i
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recom
mend it Begin taking Cardui today.' I
