wrfles at follows: ,4I suffered for four
yean, with womanly troubles, and during
fee* ttne, I could only tit up for a little
whfle, and could not walk anywhere at
an, At times, I would have severe pains
In ary left side.
: The doctor was called in, and Ms treat
ssswt relieved me for a while, but 1 was
anew confined to my bed again. Alter
%%m%nothing seemed to do me any good.
_
1 had gotten so weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, ray husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman's tonic, and 1 com?
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, I could tell it was helping me. 1
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work."
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don't give up In despair. Try
Cardui, the woman's tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it w?l do. Ask him. He will recom?

Columbia, Aug, 11??Farmer*, bank
era, business men, cotton manufac?
turers and cotton seed crushers from
a score of counties, meeting in ?'o
umbta yesterday organised the South
Carolina Cotton congress. The meet?
ing was called by H, J. WatSOU, pres?
ident of the Southern Cotton congress.
More than "?0 delegates were present
at the meeting.
The following resolution, intro?
duced by Dr. Wade Stackhouse of
Dillon, was adopted by the congress:
"Whereas, from 8,000,000 to 5,000,
000 bales of this cotton crop is going
to be a surplus more than the mills
of the world will spin and will need
to be carried over into next year by
the farmer or his friends:
"Resolved, That the South Carolina
Cotton congress adopt the following
plan and recommend it to our sister
cotton producing States.
"We suggest that at the earliest
possible moment every cotton tanner
be canvassed and requested to store
one-third of this crop in a secure
warehouse and fully insure, so that
he can obtain a loan on it.
"That at the time he is canvassed
he be requested to hold this part of
his crop for a minimum price of 12 1-2
cents per pound, basic middling; and
that he give power of attorney to
holder of the warehouse receipt au?
thorizing him to hold the cotton for n
period of one year, If necessary, and
sell only in the event he can get a
minimum pi ice of 12 1-2 cents.
"When the canvass of a county is
complete, if it is found that as much
as one-third of this year's crop has
not been pledged, the business men Ol
that county ought to be asked to store
enough cotton to make up that coun?
ty's share.
"It is agreed and understood that
it' as much as I,000,000 bales are not
pledged in the cotton States, each
man's pledge is to be returned to him.
"We believe if we can get pledged
and put in warehouses one-third of
this year's crop llxed by pewer of at?
torney so that it can not be sold for
less than 12 1-2 cents that the remain?
ing two-thirds can be sold by the
farmers themselves without aid to
Unances.
"In the event he can get pledged the
minimum of 3,000,000 biles proposed
above that he calls on merchants,
bankers and OthSF business men to
see that a liberal loan is made on
cotton so placed. At the same time
that the township committee secures
the pledge to store one-third of this
crop, wc recommend that each fann?
er be asked to sign a pledge to reduce
his acreage 50 per cent, which acre?
age with intensive methods of culti?
vation, will be sufficient enough to
supply the world's needs when the
amount carried is taken into consider?
ation, one is to be requested to
reduce his acreage if he plants not
more than eight acres of cotton to
the plow. This pledge to reduce acre
ige shall also become null and void
it the canvass falls to retire one-thrd
Of this crop for minimum price of
12 1-2 cents."
l>r. Stackhouse also introduced the
following resolution, which was adopt?
ed: "Resolved, That the South Car?
olina Cotton congress indorse the
principles Of what Is known as the
Farmers' union State warehouse bill.
"Uesolved Unit we request that no
one sell a bale of cotton at any price
before October 1, unless offered 12
cents for it as we recognize that there
is no demand for cotton at present
and any attempt to put it on the mar?
ket will cause the price to drop be?
low the cost of production."
The meeting was called to order yes?
terday morning in the convention hall
of the Jefferson hotel. Dr. Wade
Stackhouse of Dillon was elected pres?
ident and S. F. Taylor of Columbia,
secretary and treasurer.
President Stackhouse isued a call
for the county congress to be held
August 27; when the plans of the
State organisation Will be explained
and put on a working basis.
A central committee was named hy
the State Congress yesterday to have
charge of the cotton holding move?
ment In South Carolina. This com?
mittee will work to secure a perma?
nent warehouse system for South Car
? ?II na,
it necessary the committee will ask
the governor to call 11 special session

President Btuckhouse of the con?
gress Issued the followliiK eall for
county meetings:
"Call for county organisation: All
farmers, merchants, hankers, und:
other persons Interested In securing
a fair price for this cotton crop are
requested to meet st each and every
county seat In South Carolina on
Thursday, August -7, at 11 o'clock.
They are asked to form a county cot?
ton congress by electing n president
and a secretary and treasurer. All
classes of our citixens, Including ne?
gro tenants, can become members of
the county congress by paying a fee
of $1.
"Wo urge that as mmy members
he enrolled as possible is our organi?
sation will require funds to press ul
vigorous campaign to retire the .sur?
plus of this crop and secure a proper
reduction of acreage for mir?. We
request that the secretary give a re?
ceipt to each pe rson paying the mem?
bership fee and forward the amount
of money collected to B. F. Taylor,
secretary and treasurer of Slate con?
gress, Columbia, s. C, At same time
send to me at Dillon a list of per?
sons joininu and 1 will send them a
badge which I trust they will wear,
showing to the public at all times who
are members of the cotton congress
and showing they .are willing to use
their time and money to aid in getting
a fair juice for cotton.
"When county meeting Is organised
select three nu n from each township
who are patriotic enough to see that
tho wishes of the congress are
promptly carried out when instruc?
tions are given. I request that the
names of president, secretary und
treasurer and of the township com?
mittee he mailed me at Dillon, s. C.
"No plan of action can be an?
nounced until the executive committee
of the several cotton States can get to?
gether and agree on a uniform plan
from Texas to Virginia.
"Finally, do not sell your cotton.
We feel sure that in 30 to 00 days
money will be plentiful and that you
will rejoice you have not sacrificed
vaiahie property because of a panicky
feeling."
