"Cured"~I
Mrs. Jay McGee, of Steph
enville, Texas, writes: 'For
nine (9) years, I suffered with
womanly trouble. I had ter
rible headaches, and pains in
my back, etc. It seemed as if
I would die, I suffered so. At
last, L decided to try Cardui,
the woman's tonic, and it
helped me right away. The
full treatment not only helped
me, but it cured me."
ThM Woman's Tonic
Cardu helps women in time
of greatest need, because it
contains ingredients which act
specifically, yet gently, on the
weakened womanly organs.
So, if you feel discouraged,
blue, out-of-sorts, unable to
do your household work, on
account of your condition, stop
worrying and give Cardui a
trial. It has helped thousands
of women.-why not you?

CITY HAS SUFFERED MUCH
Diarbekr, on the Upper -Tigris, One
of the Most Interesting Spots
. on Earth.
One of the important cities of Asia
Minor lying In the region in which
the Russian and Turkish armies have
been in contact for some time is Diar
bekr. situated on the upper Tigris,
which, at this point, is a stream flow
tug through a deeply cut open valley.
Describing its situation, the National
Geographic society says:
"The situation of Diarbekr is an im
pressive one.' Built upon a basaltic
tableland, surrounded by walls con
structed of basaltic rock, the city over
looks a broad bend of the Tigris,
which flows byits eastern side. Beneath
the walls of the city and within the
bend of the river lies a plain covered
with vegetation of every shade of
green that the East can produce. Few
cities of the earth have undergone
greater vicissitudes than Diarbekr.
Roman and Persian, Armenian and
Parthian, Arab and Turk have dis
puted its possession. In one of its
many changes alone, more than 80,
000 of its population were put to the
sword.
"So heavy has been the toll that
war has levied upon it that where once
it was larger than the capital of the
United States, today less than 40,
000 people dwell there. The city Is
rich in remnants of Its former great
ness. Old Jacobite, Greek and Ar
menian churches raise their spires to
heaven along with the mninarets of a
host of Mohammedan mosques. Silk
raising is a principal industry, and the
sheaves that the Inhabitants bring in
there are sheaves of mulberry leaves
which serve as fodder for the hungry
and ravenous silkworm. Lettuce Is a
favorite article of diet, and the Turks
eat It all day long.
"The Diarbekr scorpion is as fre
quent If not as poisonous as the New
Mexican tarantula, and thousands are
bitten annually by It. But~its venom
Snot penetrating like tifat of the
snake; hence prompt scarIficatIon of
the wound prevents infection."
i'Rather a New Thing.
A Chicago woman has asked for a
place on the police force, advancing
as her special reason the fact that "her
husband Is a poet and she has to
live."
Perhaps this case might be cited in
support of the assertion that clever
men seldomi narry clever women, and,
vice versa, although it is hard to say
whether the cleverness in this par
ticular Instance Is possessed by the
poet husband or by the *ife who wants
to become a policewoman In order to
live. We have our suspicion, however,
without knowing anything about the
respective merits of the pair. It Is, at
least, a mark of originality for a
woman to aspire to active work on the
police force, and a vein of origmnality
Is one of the attributes of cleverness,
while even a stupid person may write
poetry or what often passes for poetry
'in these days.
*Perhaps this Chicago husband is not
really a poet, but only thinks he Is a
poet. It Is unfortunate that there is a
lot of confusion of these two classes
in the popular mind, for there have
been, and still are, inany worthy poets
who are not afflicted with stupidity,
but they treat poetry as a pastime and
carry it along as a side line, getting
their bread and butter with something
more dependable. As a rule, a man
who makes poetry his steady job is a
pretty poor specimen as a husband,
and his wife Is in luck If she does not
have to take in washing.
It is to be expected that his Chicago
wife is the real poet of the"'amly, be
cause she has the vision is:. see the
reality of life, and if she gets d"er place
on the police force it would )robably
please her friends If her first, official
act were to run her husband In for
nonsupport.-Providence Journal.
