Wondrous Music. "I heard a great master play on a wondrous violin; his bow quiv ered like the wing of a bird; in every quiver there was melody, and every melody breathed a thought in language sweeter than was ever uttered by human tongue. I was conjured; I was mesmerized by his music. I fell as eep under its power, and was rapt in the realm of visions and dreams. The •oohanted violin poured out its sweetest soul, and in its music I thought 1 heard the rustle of a thousand joyous wings, and a burst of soug from a thousand joyous throats. Mocking birds and linnets thrilled the glad air with warbliugs; goldfinches, thrushes aud bobolinks trilled their happiest tunes; aud the oriole sang a lullaby to her hang ing cradle that rocked in the wind. I heard the twitter of skimming swallows and the scat tered covey’s piping call; I heard the robin’s gay whistle, the croak-; ing of crows, the scolding of blue i jays and the melancholy cooing of a dove. The swaying tree-tops seemed vocal with bird-song while he played, and the labyrinths of leafy shade echoed the chorus.”— Gov. Bob Taylor. Catarrh Curad.

Dread of such treatment kept thousands of modest women silent about their suffering. Thein- _ troduction of Wine of Cardui has now demon strated that nine-tenths of all the cases ■of menstrual disorders do not require a physician's attention at all. The simple, pure Wh»ni taken In the privacy of a woman's own home Insures quick relief and speedy cure. Women need not hesitate now. Wine of Cardu! re quires no humiliating examina tions for its adoption. It cures any disease that comes under the head of “female troubles"—disordered menses, falling of the womb, “whites,” change of life. It makes women beautiful by making them well. It keeps them young by keeping them healthy. $1.00 at the drug store.
