Women's Pains
“I was a total wreck,’* writes Mrs. Beulah
Rowley, of Champoeg, Oregon, “from pains I had
suffered, for 4 years, every month. Sometimes I
would be unconscious for 12 hours at a stretch. I
did not know that anything could stop the pain
entirely, but Wine of Cardui did. I advise all
women suffering with painful puiods to use Car
dui and be relieved.”
It does this by regulating the functions and
toning up all the Internal female organs to health.
It is a pure, specific, reliable, female remedy, with
a record of 70 years of
success. It has bene
fited a million others.

TO RENT OR TO BUY
A Gaffney man said a few days ago, “I’d
like to buy a home of ray own, but I can’t
afford it.’’ He was mistaken. Any man
who can afford to pay rent can afford to buy
a home if he will take advantage of the
Peoples B. & L. Plan
and he can buy just as good a home as he
can rent. The only difference is he buys for
himself instead of his landlord. Start today
by taking sto< k and tiling your application.
