FUND SHORTAGE CAUSES QUANDARY AICITYHOSPIIAL Where to Get Money for October Supplies Gives Officials Concern, Where to get money for October supplies for the city hospital caused city officials concern today. Raymond Wright, city purchasing agent, refused to place orders for food and medicine because requisitions did not bear certification by the board of health that there are sufficient funds to pay for them, as the law requires. Dr. E. E. Hodgln, president of the board, said there are not sufficient funds and he will not make such certification. City Attorney James M. Ogden advised money could not be transferred from the city" general fund. Attorneys were to thrash th© matter out. The health board will receive $200,000 In fall taxes within a few weeks. Out of this must be paid $178,000 to retire temporary loans. Pay rolls for board of health employees will mors than eat up'the balance, leaving nothing for supplies. Law provides that temporary loans must be retired the same year in

Smith, of 2106 Stout St. Birmingham, Ala. “Twenty-five years ago, I was suffering from womanly weakness. ... I read of Cardui in an almanac, and thought I would try it. I got a bottle and it helped me from the first. After that, during the whole of my married Ufa, I took Cardui when I needed it. “About four years ago, change of life came on mo. . . I grew weaker and weaker, and was confined to my bed where I laid on my back for days. "I remebered how Cardui had helped me for female throuble in the past and I had read of how it had helped other women during change of life, so on© night I told my husband to go to the drug store and get mo a bottle. I began taking It at once. From the first dose I could feel myself getting stronger. . . I continued to take Cardui until I was entirely through this very trying period of a woman's life. . Cardui is a wonderful medicine for women. It helped me so much that I gladly recommend It to other women suffering as I did.” At druggists. VW Take £ CARDUI!
