Gave Up Hope "I suffered five years, with awful paint, due to woman ly troubles," writes Mrs. M. D. McPherson, from Chad bourn, N. C "They grew worse, till I would often faint I could not walk at all, and I had an awful hurting hi my side; also a headache and a backache. I gave up and thought I would die, but my husband urged mc to try Cardui, so, I began, and the first bottle helped me. By the time the third bottle was used, I could do all my work. All the people around here said I would die, but Cardui relieved me." Cardui Woman^Tonfc For more than 50 years, Cardui has been relieving woman's sufferings, and making weak women strong and welt During this time, thousands of women have written, like Mrs. McPherson, to tell cf the really surprising results they obtained by the use of this purely vegetable, tonic remedy for women.

To the Editor of The 8tate: When Senator Tillman said that no sane man would believe Judge Jones favors social equality, I have been Wondering what he thought of the demagogue that would try to deceive the people and arouse their preju dices by uttering publicly such a charge? 1 have been wondering what Sen ator Tillman things of the man who seeks to stir the passions and ani mosities of the populace by publicly alleging or insinuating that his oppo nent Is of mixed blood. As I have read Senator Tillnian's letters. I have been wondering what he thinks of a governor who stands by an officer of the law, his own ap pointee, to whom men swear that they have paid graft and who him self does not deny the charge. Does Senator Tillman think the State is safe under such an admin istration? Can the best legislature we may be able to elect remedy such a state of affairs? Does Senator Tillman wish to see this state which he has served so long given over to this and other forms of lawlessness and corruption? I have been wondering whet was Senator TUlman's estimate of our governor when he wrote. "Sensible men will never weigh Senator Till man and Qov. Dlease in the same scales, if the fools do, it is not any fault of mine." And, incidentally, I nm wondering what he thinks of the rampant Blenseltes. I have been wondering what Sen ator Tillman thinks when lie failed in his second letter to state that Bloase is eminently qualified for the governorship although bombarded by ihe Dlea-:e)tes for sucli a testimonial. Judge Jones has offered $100 In gold for such a testimonial from Sen ator Tillman. Senator Tillman has been bombarded for such a testi monial. Senator Tillman has written a second letter. But Judge Jones has the satisfaction of still having his $100 in gold down safe In his jeans. And I cannot help wondering what Senator Tillman thinks of ""'.ease for governor. Senator Tillman professes great humiliation of heart at the vulgar ity, blackguardism, obscenity and in decency enacted in the present po litical campaign In South Carolina. His fellow senators jeer at him and cause him to he silent in shame. 1 have been wondering whom Sen ator Tillman is thinking of as pub licly engaging In "vulgarity, black guardism and indecency." I have been wondering who he thinks has been talking.on the stump about pimps, political prostitutes, guttersnipes and nigger sweethearts. I have been wondering If Senator Tillman thinks this vulgarity, abuse and indecency began with this cam paign. I have been wondering If Senator Tillman read the Inaugural address of Oov. Dlease, and the message to the legislature which had to be re fused admittance to the records, and his remarks about the supreme court and the legislature and the Ansel dis pensary commission, etc. I have been wondering If Senator Tillman has noticed that ever since Dlease took his seat as governor, we have had this stream of abuse, vitup eration and indecency pouring forth upon everything that did not hear a Dlease tag and upon every person that did not wear a Dlease halter. I wonder If Senator Tillman thinks, we ought to ?0 harassed and scourged with two more years of this thing. I have been wondering if Senator Tillman thinks that it is this cam paign alone which has brought dis grace upon the to and a feeling of shame to the proud Carolinian as he meets the citizens of other states: or whether it is also the two years of nieaseism with its volcanic fury and turbulence that is causing us to hang our heads in shame when we meet the people of other states. Let Senator Tillman ask his fel low senators whether it is what South Carolina is suffering In this campaign or what she lias been suffering for two years that should bring the blush of shame to the true South Caro linian? I am wondering if South Carolina will continue the shameful situation for two more years and if Senator Tillman will render aid and comfort. South Carolina. Due West, August 14.
