Weak Back Mrf. Mildred Pipkin, of R. V. I). 8, Columbia, Tenn., ?ays: "My experience with Cardiff has covered a numbe.* ef years. Nineteen years ago . . . I got down with Weak back. 1 was run-down and so weak and nervous 1 bad to stay in bed. I read ot CARDUI The Woman's Tonic and sent for it. 1 took only one bottle at that time, arid it helped mc; seemed to strengthen and build me right up. So that is how 1 first knew of Cardul. After that, . . . when 1 began to get weak and *no account', I sent right for Cardui, and if never failed to help. me." If you are weak and suffering ftom womanly ailments, Cardui may be just what you need. Take Cardui. It has helped thousands, and ought to help you. At all druggists' ar.d dealers'.

C. NEW TO VIENNA Really Remarkable Innovations In the Old City. ?II! Marriage Advisory Office Inatituted ' aa Social Reform ? Telle Whin *nd When Not to Marry. Young- republics rush In where : hoary monarchies refuse to tread, j That la why republican Vienna <an uf- j ford to test social experiments which would have been unthinkable in the Hapsburgs' halcyon daya. writes Fred erick Kuh in a Vlennu letter to the Naw York Evening l'ost. Two of the latest Innovations under the new regime bid fair to become milestones In social reform. One of these Is the lierufsberatungsstelle, or vocational guidance department; the other Is the Kheberatungssielle, or advisory ottlce. lioth of the*e insti tutions are still on trial and have bare ly celebrated their first birthday, but with a year's experience to survey, it is possible now to form some estimate of their accomplishments. The marriage advisory office was created In June, 1922, an the result of a campaign by liberals and social democrats In the city council. It should be stated at once that the purpose of this department of the Viennese mu nicipality has no time for playful flap pers. The chief of this municipal office Is l>r. Carl Kautsky, young, serious, en thusiastic, a physician and son of the famous social democrat. The office 1b open for consultations twice weekly; anyone may reckon with the fullest privacy In his Or ht r dealings with the bureau. , Its basic principle is that a certain .quality of health |s no less necessary to a satisfactory marriage than a cer tain quantity of money." The number of Viennese who patron ize the marriage advisor's bureau Is constantly increasing. Thus far the experiment has been a notable. success. The "business of the marriage advisor Is manifold. A glance into the ofllcial record discloses that the class of per sons soliciting advice on matrimonial afTnlrs ranges from metal workers to colonels In the Austrian army. The bulk of cases Include young couples wishing to know whether they are physically qualified for marriage, whether they hope to have children and whether those children may be ex posed to hereditary Ills. I'nllke the municipal marriage advis ory olthe, the pity's vocational guid ance department is not unique. Simi lar, but not identical, institutions are functioning in Rerlin, Hamburg and other (ierman centers. In Vienna this orgnnlzatlon is chletly concerned with helping school children to make their own choice of h trade or profession and equipping the did to till the de sired positiou competently. In this respect the Viennese municipality is assuming a task which, In America, is left to private philanthropic enter prises. one-fifth of all children about to leave school ami enter the world of bread-winners have been guided In their selection of an occupation by this deportment's specialists. In most cases, every effort is made to Induce parents to allow children to continue their education in high schools. Wherever poverty or the child's un fitness for study Is ascertained, an at- | tempt is undertaken to locate the boy j or gir! in some skilled employment in each case the child's physical and I educational records are carefully vx- j ttmlned. The teacher or parents have ; already filled out a questionnaire, de- j scribing the child's memory, lnqulsl- j tiveness. imagination, will power, frail- ; ties and talents. The choice of voca- : ti?>n is based upon these answers, o>u- j pled with the findings of tho expert. ?'

The Plebeians. The Plebeians were the commoners of Home, who were originally forbid den nil political rights. They were for the most part poor, and not allowed to Intermarry with the Patricians. They served In the army without pay, were sold into slavery for debt, and could even be cut In pieces for distribution among tliejr creditors. Finding their condition intolerable, the Plebeians, in 404 IV C.. repaired to Mons Sacer. near Home, where they resolved to build a new city; but this step so alarmed the privileged classes that they granted to the Plebeians the right of choosing annually from their own number two magistrates, called tribunes, with power to protect them against aggressions of the Patricians. After the lapse of about two hundred years the disabilities of the Plebeians were almost entirely removed.

The real blonde, Dr. Ilrdlicka finds, is a mre object, hut far rarer still are the true redheads, and most rare of all Is the absolute brunette. Among men nnd women he "found little dif ference In the frequency of blondes and brunettes, but there are Jive red headed women 10 two red-headed men. One out of every sixteen men has real blonde hair; one out of every 50 has red hair; one out of every 100 has hair that Is truly black.
