NOTICE DUROCJER
SEY DOG MEN
Being interested in the
(breeding of Duroc-Jersey hogs,
and having some good sows as
a foundation to raise and de-
velop a good strain, have
bought from Geo. P. Lillard, of
Seguin, a male sired by his
great champion, "High Chief.'
Mr. Lillard is probably the most
isuccessful hog man in the Du-
roc line in the South and his
herd won more first, second and
third prizes at the Dallas and
Louisiana Fairs than any other
herd, and in competition with
noted breeders from all over
the country.
This young hog, "Iligh Chief
Lad," No. 199469, is a fine in-
dividual, good color," with high
arched back, good feet and legs.
After 1 had received him Mr.
Lillard has this to say about
"Rosebud.

It Always Helps
says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman's
tonic. She says further: "Before I began to use
Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, 1
thought the pain would kill me. 1 was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feci like a new woman. 1 soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, 1 do all my housework,
as well as run a big water mill.
I wish every suffering woman would give

Any mother who has had ex-
perience with this distressing
ailment will be pleased to know
that a cure may be effected by

nursing. Wipe it off with a
soft cloth before allowing the
babe to nurse. Many trained
nurses use this salve with best
results. For sale by all dealers.
The Woman's Tonic
a trial. 1 sfiil use Cardui when I feci a little bad,
and it always does me good."

ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui. the woman's
