President Wilson has called upon thcrAmerican people for $100,000,000 for the Red Cross, the only recognized inter national organization for the alleviation of suffering in the' wake of war’s devastations. Of this fund South Carolina has had al lotted as her share, $300,000. .. Colleton c&unty Vnu^t raise $3,0U<* of this amount, between the dates June 18-25. Already many of our boys are in training to go to the battle £ * * ■ ■ , > front in France. A fev have already gone. Soon there will be many of them over there, and the Red Ckss is the <*nly agency which will have in charge the alleviation of their suffering, and the ministration to their wants. It will be a comfort to you t know that the best this powerful organization can do f«r the health, comfort and happiness of your relative, neighbor or friend is being done, and that YOU HELPED MAKE THEM ABLE TO DO THIS GREAT WORK. This is the first time this opportunity has come to you who perhaps will not be able to go yourself to the front with them. They are giving ALL THEY HAVE TO THEIR COUNTRY—WHAT WILL YOU GIVE' They will fight, perhaps die. for you. will you GIVE TILL IT HURTS FOR THEM? The patriotic honor of Colleton county and South Carolina is at stake, and it depends upon the way in which this call is heeded whether oFnot we shall meet the great duty which come to us at home now. - . - • X. ‘ GIVE FREELY TO, A WORTHY AND PATRIOTIC PUR POSE—AND GIVE NOW. *»*.

GUdweH. of this town, says: "When about 15 years of age, I suffered greatly ... Sometimes would go s month or two, and 1 had terrible headache, backache, and bearing- down pains, and would just drag and had no appetite. Then ... it would last ... two weeks, and was So weakening, and my health was awful. ^ My mother bought me a bottle of Cardui, and I began to improve after taking the first bottle, so kept it up till I took three... I gained, and was well and strong, and I owe it all to Cardui. I am married now and have 3 children . v . Have never had to have a doctor lor female trouble, and just resort to Cardui if \ need a tonic. I am glad to testify to what it has dohe for me, so as to help others.” • If you are nervous or weak, have head aches, backaches, or any of the other ailments so common to women, why not give Cardui a trial? Recommended by many physicians. In use over 40 years. Begin taking Cardui today, ft may be the very medicine you need.
