"Whatever your occupaton. if your
boy doesn't want to follow it don't
try to make him do so, because he'll
be a failure. It is more credit to a
man to raise a successful garbage
wagon driver than a failure as a bank
president. If he wants to leave home, j
let him go. If he makes a success, i
you'll be proud of him. and if he;
makes a failure, the world has a way J
of "treating 'em rough" that makes!
i
them hot-foot it home. and. usually, j
ever after, they think home is the best
place in the world.
Some folks will lose two or three >
days' work, burn up some perfectly j
good gasoline, rr pay some one to haul
sfe
them to fight a project that won't cost
them over a dollar or two a year and
be credit to them ever after. "Human
nature" is a funny animal. Will
some one please tell us the "whenceness
of the why"?
Good old Dame Nature seems to
have gotten the cards mixed in dealing
us out the weather this spring. It
doesn't seem to be running off the
reel right. First, we have a
"smitchet" of spring, then a few cool,
dark, rainy days that minds us of December,
after which the wind roars
and zoo-ooh-oohs through the trees
and round the corners like February
and March. We are not hinting that
we could do any better, but we know
how we would like to have it, for our
sympathy is all with the farmer and
he is getting the worst of it. All
other workers make time whether it
rains or not, but farm work depends
altogether on the weather.
Nathan, the second son of.Mr. and
Mrs. J. C. Shealy, suffered the misfortune
of having his right arm broken
last Saturday by being thrown by a
mule. To find if the shoulder was
injured, the physician had the should/
er x-rayed, but found only the upper
arm bone broken and the shoulder
bruised.
Mrs Julia Clark Shealy has returned
after a visit of several weeks to her
sister, Mrs. B. D. Clark, and other
relatives at Lexington.
Mr. Daniel W. Bachman and family
have moved to Gastonia, N. C. A
life-long farmer, Mr. Bachman has
become dissatisfied with farming conditions
and has gone into other work
for this year.
Mrs. R. L. Ford has returned to
her home at Lake View after spending
two weeks with her p^-ents and
other relatives here and at Lexington.
The immediate family, other near
relatives and close friends of Mr. D.
J. Shumpert celebratbed his fiftieth
birthday recently by giving him a surprise
birthday dinner. A very pleasant
day and a most bounteous dinner
of all kinds of good "eats" were enjoyed
by all that were fortunate
enough to attend.
Mr. and Mrs. Perry Taylor of the
Hollow Creek section visited the former's
brother-in-law and sisters, Mr.
and Mrs. J. A. Shumpert and Mr.
and Mrs. H. P. Shumpert, Sunday.
Miss Ellen Hendrix of Lexington,
one of the most efficient and wellknown
teachers in the state, spent
last Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Julian
same editorial writers til"ha d'^aboui
two years ago, before the nineteenth

DAY OF TRAGEDY
IX GREAT CITY.
New York. May 8.?Romance and
tragedy walking hand in hand through
the metropolitan area today left in
their wake the longest list of violence
and suicide the city has known in
many months. Seven persons in hospitals?six
bodies in morgues?and

Dr. Alfred H. Riedel, eye specialist.
separated from his wife, poisoned
himself in a hotel room because of
unrequited love of an actress.
John Kane. 34, clerk at Mamaroneck,
shot his sweetheart. Elizabeth
Dunn, 32 year old srhool teacher, in
a park, because she refused to marry
him. He then committed suicide.
| Vincent Laclardi, 18, called Mar!
garet Violanti, 17, into a hallway, and
j when she refused to elope with him,
j shot five times at her but only in- j
I flicted one flesh wound. He turned
! the pistol upon himself?only to be
wounded in the cheek.
| Mrs. Constance F. Marvin was
found dead in a bath tub in her home
i at Mount Vernon. She left a note
I hoping: she would be forgiveij.
Miss Edith Buchanan, 42, was found
in her room suffering from poison
which, she said, was taken by mistake.
Mystery surrounds the death of Vincent
Morelli, 25, who died in a polinpman'a
arms nftpr hp had ' been
wounded in a pistol duel with several
other men.
Theodore Budniek, held at Bridgeton,
N. J., on a charge of shooting
one leazer Hankins, declared he expected
to die, but believed he was
justified. Budniek said he went to
Hankins' shop to warn him to i.op
going with Mrs. Budniek. While they
were talking Mrs. Budniek appeared
on the street and. Kulnick stated. |
Hankins wav?d to her. "That got
me," he added. "I said. 'Mr. Hankins,
you took my wife, you can take
this,' and I fired."
Home going crowds in Grand street
in the lower East Side were thrown
into a panic when three men and two
women fell wounded after five men
suddenly drew pistols and began
shooting at one another. The gunmen
began their battle within a block
of police headquarters. All the gunmen
excaped, except one.
The police said that the shooting
affray grew out of a murder eight
months ago when a street duel resulted
in the death of the leader of
a band of bootleggers.

CARDUI HELPED
REGAIN STRENGTH
Alabama Lady Was Sick For Three
Tears, Suffering Pain, Nemos
and Depressed?Read Her
Own Story of Recovery.
Point Rock, Ala.?Mrs. C. M. Stegall,
Of near here, recently related the Sol*
lowing interesting account of her recovery:
MI was in a weakened condition.
I was sick three years in bed.
offering a great deaPof pain, weak,
nervous, depressed. I was so weak,
I couldn't walk across the floor; just
had to lay and my little ones do the
work. I was almost dead. I tried
every thing I heard of, and a number of
doctors. Still I didn't get any relief.
I couldn't eat, and slept poorly. I
believe if I hadn't heard of and taken
Cardui I would have died. I bought
six bottles, after a neighbor told me j
what it did for her.
"I began to eat and sleep, began tc
gain my strength and am now well
and strong. I haven't had any trouble
since ... I sure can testify to the
good that Cardui did me. I don't
think there is a better tonic made |
and I believe it saved my life."
For over 40 years, thousands of wo- j
men have used Cardui successfully,
in the treatment of many womanly j
ailments.
If you suffer as these women did# !
take Cardui. It may help you, too.
