I think Cardui is a wonderful medicine, for I improved greatly after taking it,” says Mrs. A. W. English, of R. F. D. 4, Roanoke, Va. "When I was just a girl of 13, my mother gave this medi cine to me, and it did me a great deal of good. I was weak and run-down. After I had taken Cardui awhile, I felt much belter. "In 1924, my health was poor. I felt miserable, and hadn’t enough strength to do my house work. It took all my willpower to keep up. I was pale and weak. "I got Cardui again and took it. My improvement was wonder ful. I can recommend Cardui to others, for my health was so much better after I had taken a course .of the Cardui Home Treatment.” E-162 CARDUI Helps Women to Health Take Thedford’s Black-Draugrht for Constipation,' Indigestion, Biliousness.

L. REYNOLDS, Prop. Augusta Street McCormick, S. C. to m mi re you ever^tonned to thin Have you ever^topped 10 tninK 01 tne iiftmy serv ices rendered you by your bank for which no charge is made, and wondered how your bank, or any other bank, i^ reimbursed? There is only one way for the bank to be reim bursed and that is by lending the depositor’s funds. No bank is able to render, except at a loss, the many services the depositors have come to expect as a mat ter of course unless there is maintained with the bank at all times a collected balance largie enough to earn suficient to pay the cost of the services rendered. The customer with a large balance pays the bank for the necessary services he receives through the earnings the bank receives from lending his funds. The customer unable to maintain a balance which will of itself earn for the hank at least the cost of the services which it renders him in keeping his books, furnishing his check books, paying his checks and protecting his signature, should reimburse the bank the cost it has been put to in handling his account. Believing that sound hanking practices require that each account should be self-sustaining. The Peoples Bank of McCormick has decided to initiate a service charge. Beginning January 1, 1931, this bank will make a minimum service charge of 50c per month on any checking account which falls below $50.00 during any calendar month. The. above charge is not to apply where no checks are drawn on an account during the month, or in case a customer has during the same period of-time a balance of not less than $300.00 in the savings de partment. Any officer of the undersigned bank will be glad to explain the service charge to anyone who does not fully understand it. THE PEOPLES BANK McCORMICK, S. C.
