FAILS TO SECURE RECOGNITION Lad/s Own Friends Assert Could Not Recognize Her When Brought Face to Face. Arritts, Va.?Mrs. D. J. Bowen, of this town, makes the following state ment: "For 20 years I suffered with j womanly troubles, and although I tried different treatments, I did not get any relief. I was unable to look after any of my work, and my friends thought I could not get well. Finally, I began to take Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I hadn't taken one-third of the first bottle, before I could notice its good enects. Now I can do all my work, feel like I'm not more than 16 years old, but am really 49. My own friends say I look so well, they don't recognize me when we meet In the road. My daughter is using Cardui, and she says it is a fine medicine. I also have a number of lady friends taking It, since they found out how it helped me. Whenever I feel a little fatigued after a day's extra hard work, I just (. take a dose of Cardui and am all right I can't say too much for Cardui." Thousands of women who now suffer from womanly troubles, could be re lieved and benefited, by following Mrs. Bowen's example. Are you of this number? If so, try Cardui today. It cannot harm you, and is almost sure to do you good. At the nearest drug store.?Adv. A Foozler. He?Is your uncle good at golf? She?Mercy, no! He's very profane. ?Boston Evening Transcript. .

Columbia. The pesitferous cattle tick, that eminent bloodsucker and host of the Texas fever protozoan, is being made to carol its swan song in many coun ties in South Carolina. Under the direction of the bureau of animal in dustry of the department of agricul ture and of Clemson College 40 men have taken the field against the pest, which is the greatest drawback to suc cesslul cattle raising in the infested area of South Carolina and of the /nIV* aw C? aii nrn Cfotoe VlUCi tJUU tliti Xi. UUtbWW. Walter K. Lewis, inspector In charge of the co-operative tick eradi cation work of the department and of Clemson College in South Carolina, who passed through Columbia recent ly told of the opening of the cam paign agains tthe cattle tick In a large part of the area still infested by the insect. Working slowly since 1907 on account of lack of funds, Clemson College eradicated the cattle tick in 14 counties In South Carolina and the department of agriculture raised the federal quarantine on cattle shipped from this territory. When; Inspector Lewis and his field men finish mas sacreing the tick in the remaining 30 counties of the state, the federal quarantine will be lifted from these. The work will take two or three years, the length of time depending upon the co-operation the cattle raisers give the tick eradicators sent out by the government and the college. Every cattle raiser in the state knows that it will mean a tremendous gain for the industry to free the native cattle from the debilitating effects of the tick and to allow importation of good stock without danger of death from Texas fever, to improve in-bred na tive herds. Dr. Lewis started actual field work April 1. He now has 40 men oiit after the scalp of the cattle ticks. By June 1 he expects to have 60 men in the field, all trained experts who know their business. The field force under Dr. Lewis is now working in Rich lend, Newberry, Fairfield, Chester field, Kershaw, Marlon, Dillon, Char leston, Florence and Lee oounties. This week he will put tick eradicators *" ? 'nV T nnrtn UU LUC juu in uuiu ici auu uaiiV/aoiA^i counties. By July 1 the field fore? un der Dr. Lewis will invade Aiken, Edgefield, Saluda, Lexington, Orange burg and Calhoun counties on the trail of the tick. In the remaining counties of the state, in most of which the open range laws are effective, Dr. Lewis is planning with the funds in hand to make a preliminary survey to find out the extent of infestation by the tick and take a census of the number of cattle raisers and the number of heads in their herds. The advance men in the open range counties will encourage the building of dipping vats. 'Dr. Lewis now has over 100 applications for the building of dip ping vats in open range counties and is greatly encouraged by this show of interest on the part of cattle raisers in the low country. Under new regulations effective May 1 the department of agriculture will allow cattle from tick infested territory to be shipped at all seasons of the year provided they are dipped under supervision of experts. Ac cordingly Dr. Lewis has arranged for the building of a big vat at Royster yards near Columbia, in which all cat tle will be dipped before they start on interstate journeys to distant mar kets from South Carolina ranges. A demonstration will be given soon at the interstate Yat at Royster. Dr. Lewis has four field men and a veterinarian at work in Richland county now. New Party Rules Sent Out. Two hundred certified copies of the recently adopted constitution and rules of. the South Carolina Demo cratic party have been sent to each of the county chairmen, with four ex ceptions, by W. C. McGowan, secre tary of the state Democratic executive committee. Charleston countv was sent 1,000 copies and Spartanburg, Richland and Greenville counties 600 copies each. The new enrollment books are now in the hands of the printer, and it is thought that they will be ready for distribution soon. War on Hog Cholera. President Riggs of Cleirfson college i recently took up with Congressman | Lever the matter of federal aid in ! hog cholera work in South Carolina. I Mr. Lever has had several conferences with the secretary of agriculture and has just been advised that co-operative demonstration work in the matter un | der the leadership of Clemson college will be begun in the state at an early date. It will be recalled that Mr. ^ever put through the house a bill ap propriating $500,000 for hog cholera work in the United Stales. Hand Made Still is Trophy.

Several sweeping changes in the rules and in the constitution to safe guard and reform the primary elec tions v ere passed by the State Demo cratic convention which adjourned sine oie after a session lasting two days. The convention worked stead ily throughout the day and all during the afttrnoon refusing to recess for dinner. The determination of the con vention to carry through the report of the overwhelming majority of the committee on constitution and rules was shown in the steady manner in which it proceeded to reject amend ment after amendment, which were rained in following the tabling of the minority report of the committee. It i \> as o. ou u uiuin. wiien iuc uiuiiuik iu adjourn was carried. The main fight of the minority was made on the report of the majority which called for a personal enrollment and providing for a residence of two years in the state, one year in the county and 60 days in the voting pre cinct as qualifications to establish res idence before being eligible to partici pate in the primaries. Strenuous ef forts of the minority to knock out the personal enrollment were unsuccess ful, heavy majorities being recorded time and again in favor of the ma jority reports. An amendment by Sen ator Clifton allowing the voter to en roll by applying to the secretary of his club in person or on written ap plication signed by a witness by re jected by a vote of 256 to 5.

Aiken Proposes Two Cent Fare. Washington.?Representative Wyatt Aiken has introduced a bill to provide for two-cent passenger rates on all railroads engaged in interstate com merce. Mr. Aiken has been studying this matter for some time. It was at first his intention to introduce a bill to require railroads to accept mileage coupons on passenger trains, but he feared'if a law of this kind were pass ed the railroads would either with draw the milage books or place such restrictions on their use as were plac ed in South Carolina several years ago after the enactment of a similar law by the state legislature. Mr. Aiken's bill h$s been referred to the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce, of which Rep resentative Adamson of Georgia is chairman. Mr. Adamson read the bill before it was introduced, and not only expressed himself as in favor of it, but said he would do his best to have his committee take favorable action on it at an early day.

Though so simple that they require almost no time at all to prepare, the toy whirligigs in the illustrations \ make up for their lack of constructive work by being fun producers that will amuse just as long as there are new friends to show them to. To make the whirligig shown in Fig. 1, cut out the large disk in Fig. 2, and paste it upon a piece of card board. Then trim the cardboard even with the outside of the disk, leaving a piece on one side for a handle. To operate the toy, hold the handle in one hand, give the disk a rotary mo tion and look steadily at the center of the disk. In an instant you will discover the black and white rings of the disk to be revolving in the direc tion opposite to that in which you are rotating the disk. They do not actual ly revolve of course. The efTect is merely an optical illusion. Fig. 3 shows another application of this same optical illusion. Give the picture a rotary motion, and upon fo cusing your eyes upon the center the p t o / wheels will appear to turn. Hunt up a larger picture of an automobile and you can make a better whirler. Per haps you can find one of the right size so the disk in Fig. 2 will fit one wheel; then you need but make a duplicate disk for the other wheel. Use a compass with which to describe the circles, and fill in every other ring with black ink. Mount the picture of the automobile upon a piece of cardboard to preserve it The buzz-saw whirligig shown In Fig. 4 may be made with a cardboard disk of the size of that in Fig. 2, with saw teeth cut around its edge (Fig. 5), or a disk cut from the end of a tin can, or a large button (Fig. 6). Two holes must be pierced through the cardboard or tin disk for the operating cord to pass through. If you use a button, the center hole will be In the right place. The pinwheel whirligig in Fig. 7 consists of a stick with notches along one e^ige, and a thin chip of wood fastened at its exact center, by a pin, to the end of the stick (Fig. 8). Cut the notches' of equal size. Make the hole in the chip just large enough so the chip will turn easily and drive the pin pivot exactly straight. Hold the p'nwheel in the left hand as shown in Fig. 7, to operate it, and I with a coin in the right hand rub vig orously along the notches. This will make the stick vibrate and the vibra tions wilj cause the chip to spin around. The direction in which the pinwheel revolves may be determined by the positions of the first and sec ond fingers of the right hand. To make it spin from left to right allow the fi-st finger to rub along the upper edge of the notches; to make it re verse, press the second finger against the lower edge of the notches. The positions of the fingers can be changed without attracting the atten tlpa of any one, and you can thus ma.se the pinwheel turn in either di rection you command it to without anyone detecting how you do it II??? Bods and - f : ,l ike and Do uNeely Hall) | A DOLL H0U8E MADE FROM A CARDBOARD BOX. By DOROTHY PEKMN8, * A hat box furnishes the material for building the little two room doll house illustrated below, and one of these boxes Is usually not hard to find in any home where there are dollies wanting a house of their very own. . Fig. 1 shows the first step Neces sary in converting the hat box into a doll house, that of detaching one side (A) at the corner, and separat ing both it and the side adjoining (B) from the box bottom. Fold oack the two detached sides in the. manner shown in Fig. 2, with side B in line with side C, and side A opj>osite side D. That will make the space bet ireen the sides exactly double what It was. Cut down the box cover to fit between the box bottom and Bides A and B, to form a floor for the extended portion, and fasten this piece of cardboard in place with strips of cloth lapped and glued over the edges. A center partition divides the house Into two rooms, and this should be cut from a single piece of cardboard ?if you can get a piece large enough; otherwise, fasten two pieces side by side with strips glued across to stiffen them. Fig. .4 shows how a doorway should be cut through the center of this partition. If your hat box is made like the one shown in the illus , ? \ -C \ A ? 1 fratinno with folded and laDDed efiKes. there will be a projecting edge along the floor and up the back, to which the partition can be glued (Fig. 2). Two windows in one wall of the liv ing room and one window in one wall of the bedroom are enough to pro vide. Make the tops of these openings even with the top of the partition doorway. The living-room should have a fire place, and a candy box or stationery box of the proportions shown in Fig. 5 simplifies the work of making the mantel because it is only necessary to cut an opening through the bottom of the box for the fireplace, and then glue a piece of cardboard to the side of the box for the mantel shelf. The shelf should project beyond the front and ends of the mantel. The walls of the room may be pa pered with wall paper having a small pattern, or the cardboard may be stained with dress dyes to represent tinted plaster. The window openings may be covered with transparent pa per, for glass, but it is a better plan to leave them open and fasten strips of black paper or strands of black thread across them, to represent win dow sash. Make curtains of scraps of lace or silk. The worlds In which we live are two?

Common good-flavored cheese chopped or grated fine, mixed with season ings and cream, spread on bread and toasted after che sandwich is pot to gether, turning so that both sides are browned. The heat melts the cheese and makes a most tasty sandwich. ' Egg Sandwich.?Chop a hard cooked eee. add a tablesponful of soft butter, a quarter of a teaspoonful of Worces tershire sauce, salt and paprika to taste. Spread on freshly made and buttered toast. One egg will make filling for two sandwiches.
