'I wrote you for advice, "writes Lelia Hagood,
of Sylvia, Term., "about my terrible backache and
monthly pains in my abdomen and shoulders. I
had suffered this way nine years and five doctors
had failed to relieve me. On youradvice I aook
Wine of Cardui, which at once relieved my pains
and now I am entirely cured. I am sure that
Cardui saved my life."
It is a safe and reliable remedy for all female
diseases, such as peri

ty, dragging down sen

wants no more soldiering in his. Their

MUST LABEL
PACKAGES
Senator Root Answers Ques
tions Propoundedby Food
Commissioner
So many letters have been received
by Food Commissioner Johnson from
liquor firms, claiming the new pure
food and drug law will work injury to
them and requesting lenient treatment
in its interpretation, that the food com
missioner in order to feel assured of the
ground he has taken for strict enforce
ment of the statute, wrote to State
Senator Jesse L. Root of Cass county,
asking him as to the intent of the legls
ture regarding certain sections, says
the Lincoln News. Senator Root has
sent this reply to the inquiry:
"Dear Sir: Your favor of the 2 d
inst. at hand. You are in accord with
my understanding of the pure food law.
Retailers were exempted from stating
the net weight, etc., on packages not
only because the consumer might watch
the weighing, but because purchases
are frequently gauged by value, as a
dimes worth, a quarter, etc., and be
cause the packages are often small,
made up in haste and a regulation re
quiring the branding of the package
would be such an interference with busi
ness that the court might not uphold.
"On the other hand the package
goods and liquors put up by manufac
turers are prepared with deliberation, in
containers uniform in capacity, and
under such circumstances that the manu
facturer can unerringly state the con
tents as to weight or quality. It will be
but little trouble and trifling expense
for him to apprise the purchaser what
he is buying. The requirement as to
par cent of alcohol is imperative.
"In my judgment Nebraska's maiket
holds forth sufficient inducement to
manufacturers and jobbers to compel a
compliance with the pure food law if
they know they must do so. The pur
veyors to the people ought not to ob
ject to honesty and fairness, and that
is all the law aims at in the particulars
considered."
Cut Your Weeds
It would be well for some of the resi
dents along the principal streets especial
ly, to have their weeds cut before La

not want Governor Sheldon and the other
speakers to note your carelessness

EVER HAVE IT?
If You Hive, the Statement of this Woman
Will Interest You
Ever have a "low down" pain in the
back? In the "small," right over the
hips? That's the home of backache.
It's caused by sick kidneys. That's
why Doan's Kidney Pills cure it. Platts
mouth people endorse this. Read a case
of it.
Mrs. Joseph H. Smith, living at cor
ner of Second and Diamond streets,
Wintersteen Hill, Plattsmouth, Neb.,
says : ' 'Owing to a derangement of the
kidneys I have suffered a great deal for
years from pain in the small of the back.
1 was troubled the most when on my
feet or from any over exertion. Difficul
ty with the secretions annoyed me and
especially at night when my rest would
be disturbed. My husband had his at
tention called to Doan's Kidney Pills
and brought home a box for me from
Gering & Co., drug store. I used them
according to directions and their use did
me an infinite amount of good. The
pain was relieved Bnd there was much
improvement genenerally. I pronounce
Doan's Kidney Pills a most excellent
kidney remedy."

Out With It Who Were They?
The Palmyra Items says: "Sunday
five young people, two boys and
three girls, were swinging on a rope
that hung ever a creek in the
chautauqua grounds at Elmwood. Just
as the swing was over the middle of the
creek the rope broke letting the occu
pants fall about ten feet into the
stream. All received more or less of a
ducking, and as they were in a strange
town, they had to spend the rest of the
day in wet duds." It is hinted that
one or two of them lives in the vicinity
of Plattsmouth, but the Journal don't
beleave it. '

tend the celebration next Monday?

The Republican Muddle
A special from Lincoln, in speaking
of the republican contest for the nomi
nation for supreme judge, says: "Con
servative republicans are expressing
fear regarding the outcome of the elec
tion this year because of the bitter fight
that has broken out in the primary con
test. Charges have been made against
both candidates, so that the democrats
will have plenty of material for the elec
tion campaign, no matter which candi
date is successful in the primary. The
supporters of Judge Sedgwick are ap
parently confident of victory, and the
same may be said of the men who are
working for Reese. The wordy warfare
between F. H. Abbott and Roscoe Pound
has only helped to make the two wings
of the party more bitter toward each
other. Republicans may be found in
Lincoln who predict victory for the dem
ocratic ticket this fall, because of the
charges that have been made against
the republican candidates."
