A Bank Account is good thread with which to sew up the rents- made by misfortune. V THE BANK3^ LAU R EMS LAURENS, S.C. Gave Up Hope "I suffered five years, with awful pains, 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 me 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^Tonic For more than 50 year*, Cardui has been relieving woman's sufferings, and making weak women strong and well During this time, thousands of women have written, like Mrs. McPherson, to tell of the really surprising results they obtained by the use of this purely vegetable, tonic remedy for women. Cardui strengthens, builds, restores, and relieves or pre Vc?ts unnecessary pain and suffering from womanly troubles. If you are a woman, begin taking Cardui, today. lor 3p*c2? rrtttto: Ladies' Advltory Dipt, Cbatttnoofa MedJcIa? Co..

GOVERN MEINT TO AID IN CROP MOVEMENT Treasurer SlcAdoo Orders Twenty-five tu Pitt) Milli.us oi Dollars Deposit-' cd in Westen and Southern Hanks to Aid in Mi'Ving Crops. Washington, Vug, 1.- -Secretary Me Adoo Frida) cipcentrated the efforts1 of the treasury department upon the collection ot Information for use in the distribution of the promised twen ly-llve to Ifty nillion dollars govern ni.nt minis u agricultural regions i the south uid west. The relative needs of the various sections where harvests are uider way will be can vassed. Treaairy officials are con fident today Hut the platt will be ef fective in relie/lng prospective tight uess of mono) cliaracterlstlc of the crop moving bmisoii. Twonty-tlve o fifty million dollars of government funds will be deposit' ed in the natlotal hanks of the south and wesi at owe by Secretary McAdoo to facilitate tie movement of crops. Federal, state and municipal bonds and prime conmerclu) paper will be accepted as security for the money upon which the banks will pay two per cent Intereit. The motive if Secretary McAdoo in establishing t'xla aow policy Is to anticipate the money stringency In the late summ r and fall, which In variably necon panics the marketing and movement of crops, especially who; the croH are utusaally larga, as the harves now beginning lore casts, lie Intends to take time by the forelock ai.d prevent or minimize the usual tightness of money. In a statement Thu-sday night the secre tary made the significant answer that government bonds would be accepted at par as security for the new depos its and thai the additional money would be placed only with hanks which have taken out at least forty per cent of theif authorized circula tion. United states two per cent bond, serving ns security for most of the national hank circulation, have been depressed recently to new low market records, dropping to 95 3-4 during the past few days The secretary's willingness to iccept tins.' bonds at par as security for the twenty-live to Ufiy millions of promised deposits and the Inducement to the national hanks to increase their circulation up i to the forty poi cent limit is expected j io help in restoring the parity of the j depressed 2's, by creating a new mar ket for them. ... To Make Deposits Available. For the first tlmo In history the government will accept prime com mercial paper as security for depos its. This privilege wlH he granted, announced the secretary, in order lo make those special deposits available to the hanks on securities readily within their reach. "The commercial paper submitted," added Mr. McAdoo. "shall first he passed upon and approved by the Clearing house committees of the cit ies in which the banks offering such paper may he located \\] commer cial paper and bonds must finally bo passed upon and accepted by the sec retary." Approved commercial paper will be accepted a> security for the de posits at Gl"? per cent ot its face value 1 and high class state, municipal and other bonds, exclusive of government bonds, at 7."> per cent of their market value. i The additional deposits will be I placed witli the national hanks in the two or three principal cities in each of the states where harvesting now is in progress and where the demands for money for moving the crops most conveniently can be met. The scc n tary said it would not be practica ble lo scatter the deposits among the smaller cities, especially in view of the character of securities necessary. The banks will be ropiscd to re turn the money to the public treasury i when the Crops hue beon moved. The present suggestion Mr. McAdoo . said Is that I I per cent bo repaid In ' December, per cent in January 30 per cent In February and 2? per cent In March next, To he Prompt)) Vvailable. "Steps are now b> inn taken to (ai ry out the plan." ac" led the score; ry "so that the funds may he promptl> available for the movement of crops.' Xams of the hands o receive the de posits and other d tails of the ar rangemenl will be announced later This liew policy is the antithesis of that adopted by former secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh, who a year ago declined to make govern ment deposits to relieve the tight money market on the ground that the moderate surplus ot te '.oral funds at that time should be held as a re. serve to be Uti'ized a: some possible critical stag". With the net balance in the ten oral fund today amounting tv? nearb $132,0000,000 Sec ret a r> Me id ?> haa taken the stand that tlio govt fnment should anticipate the sltur.iien by placing deposits where ; nl lit the time, they are needed. If the full $50,000,000 is iep >slted this step will temporarily almost double the government's deposits with the hanks which now hohl f*i8, OOO.OQO of federal funds. Just as Secretary McAdoo was an nouncing his plan Senator Tillmatl, of South Carolina, was Issums a btule tnont declaring that unless CO.lgress acted quickly to pro\ Ido an emergen cy currency the cotton planter of the south would lose a hundred mil lion dollars through InablUty to gel I money to move their crops ?
