Weak
Back
Mi*. Mildred Pipkin, of
R. 1 D. 8, Columbia, Term.,
?ay s; "My experience with
Cardui hat covered a numbe.* ?4
years. Nineteen years ago * . .
1 got down with weak back. I
was run-down nnd so weak and
nervous I bad to stay la bed.
I read ol
CARDUI
Tin Woman's Tonic
and sent for it. 1 took only one
bottle at that time, and It helped
me; seemed to strengthen and
build me right up. So that Is
how I first knew of Cardui.
After that, '. . , when I began to
get weak and 'no account* , 1
sent right for Cardui, and it
never failed to help me."
If you are weak and suffering
from womanly aliments, Cardui
may be just what you need.
Take Cardui. It has helped
thousands, and otight to help
you.

All went well until my son rambled
out Into the kitchen, where he saw
Mrs. - Blank taking two cakes out of

She said, "Frank, I'll bet you can't

insignificant ; two wives lout by death
and M^tuvtlun ; little means, little
comfort and no glory, write* (iaimillel
Bradford 1m-. Harper's Magazine. In
1774 he came to Auicrica, at the
prompting of Franklin, and made hie
pen a vlgoroua agent lu the American
ltevolutlon. lie returned to England,
wrote 'The Rights of Man," tind stirred
up this world, went to France, mingled
In the French Uevoliit'lou, as a mem

prison by fiercer rebel a than himself
and there wrote "The Age of Reason,"
and stirred up the other world,
Monroe got hm out of hie difficulties,
be was reinstated in the conytftti^m,
but achieved little further la Franc#.
In 1802 he returned to Am^rlc4, found
himself, to his surprise and disgust,
at odds with A^ex-loan respectability,
and died in 1800, practically unfriended
and forlorn, though by no means for
gotten.
It was Thomas l'alne who first used
the words ttoat~ttow -echo o-rer the
whole world, "The United States of
America."
For he had a wonderful power of
building phrases, of shaping swift,
sharp sentences that should pierce dull
ears and dead hearts and make them
throb and thrill and work and live. He
began his first Crisis paper, "These
are the times that try men's souls,"
and few wprds have been oftener or
more aptly vepeated.
He had a surprising, startling vigor
of Intense, direct utterance that made
the most Inert feel that he must do
H(imethtng. And, of course, he some
times overshot himself, let the fury of
his pen betray him Into violence and
Insult, England? He was said to hate
Kngland. He did not hate England,
but he did hate some English ways of
doing things. "It was equally as much
from her manners as from' her injustice
that she lost t lie colonies," he remarks
shrewdly. King fieorge? lie was a
"foyot brute," which disposes of him,
Tories? "Every Tory Is a coward." ?
But, human nature being what It Is,
It must he admitted that even these
extravagances added to the effect of
Pa I ue'ft pamphlets. And the effect was
enormous. "Common Sense" was sold
hy the hundred thousand. "Every liv
ing, man In America in 1776, who could
read, read 'Common Sense,' " wrote
Theodore Parker.
Even the Judicious Trevelyan Is
hurried into superlatives on the sub
ject : "It would be difficult to name
any human composition which has had
an effect at once so Instant, so ex
tended, and so lasting."
Considered Miracle.
A Milan widow, seemingly dead, re
turned to life momentarily amid the
randies and flowers of he" funeral
service, which was attended by numer
ous friends. She had what the mu
nicipal doctor called a fatal attack of
heart disease. Her friends arranged
for the funeral the following morning,
hanking the main room In the house
with flowers and placing long candles
about the bier. The clergy officiated
and the hearse was waiting outside
when a friend in giving the woman a
parting kiss discovered tl\pt the fb re
head was warm and then saw that the
arms were flexible and moved. Tha
hearse was pressed Into service to
bring medical aid, and when the doctor
began working over the body warmth
and color returned, but his ofTorts
were only temporarily successful. The
doctors decided that It was a case of
retarded cyanosis, but the relatives be
lieve It was a miracle.
All Ralatlvsa Ar* Nat Pronouns.
An English teacher at a technical
high school cornea forth with a story
of one of her pupils and experiences
with the English language.
The English class was perplexing It
self over relative pronouns. The
teacher was endeavoring to extract the
secret of the definition of such a pro
noun froan rhe young hopefuls and.
falllnK In this, asked whether anyone
In the class could use such n pronoun

CAN GROW NEW TUSK IN YEAR
Discovery la Made That the Walrua
May Prolong World's Vanishing
Supply of Tvoiyr
A remarkable discovery at the seal
iviokerles on PrlbRof Islands may pro
long the world's vanishing Ivory sup
Last summer an obnoxious bull
walrus was mauled by government
seal keepers, nnd In the fight one of
Its long tusks was broken off. This
spring the same recalcitrant mammal
returned, and to the surprise of both
natives and attendants the tusk had
grown out five Inches, the end still
showing the ragged edge of the break.
It Is now believed that an annual
crop of Ibis excellent Ivory can be
harvested by cutting off one-half of
one tusk each year from the bull
walrus. The onr left intact Is used
by the mammal In digging clams and
sea food. In a year the stub would
have grown out enough to serve as
a pickax, ho tin; other tusk coujd be
sacrificed for the fancies of man.
Walrus Ivory Is in great demand
In China and Japan, where It Is
utilized for vmall carvings.
Graphite and Siberia.
Extensive deposits of graphite exist
In northwestern Siberia, on the left
bank of the River Kurelka, near the
Junction with the River Yenisei, {>0
miles from the mouth <?f the latter
river. The graphite area forms a hori
zontal plateau, the elevation of which
varies from 20 to 5K> feet above the
normal leve>! of the River Kurelka. The
plateau contains two layers of graph
ite, which Is of a solid steel-grtiy color,
soft and of an excellent quality for
the manufacture of pencils. It Is Re
lieved that In the future these graph
ites will supply Russian demands and
that large quantities will be available
for export. The chief sources of
graphite have been Ceylon, Bohemia,
Germany. Franc* and the United
States. The annual world production
has been approximately 120,000 short
tons.
The Modern Girl.
If the modern girl Is freer than her
predecessor, she Is, like her brother,
more self-possessed. Her range of
experience and of Information Is
wider and her desire to know greater.
She has seen more of the world and
heard more of It, If not directly, then
by the vicarious efforts of scores of
agencies. She has no doubt brokvo*
through many irrational taboos, but
she Is trying hard to replace them
with standards more suitable to the
complexities of life In this generation.
And If It Is flut to a male vote wheth
er she Is to return to the dress, man
ners, temperament and mental oat
look of her eighteenth or even nine
teenth century ancestor, there will
only be an Insignificant minority to
vote against her as she Is. ? Balti

Father Love vs. Mother's.
Among some fishes the r.iale aa
Mimes all the ci;rv and anxiety of
parenthood. And this Is true of at
lAist one or two families of bfrds.
The male ostrich hatches the eggs
and looks after thp little ones. The
greatest enemy oT the eggs and young
of flie stickleback fish is the mother
herself. She not only has no nffec
tlon for them whatever, but would,
eat every t?ne of lhero If she weren't,
prevented from doing so by the fa
ther. In very fe*v species of fish do
live females enre anything for either I
the eggs or the yorng.
Am??ng fishes, therefore, the in
stinct to save the young is not the
wonderful mother instinct found In
the human or other higher species, but
the father Instinct. -T>etrolt News.

WILL PLEASE MUSIC LOVERS
Wagner's "Ueljeevertoot," Practically
Forgotten, le Soon to Be lesued
by a Berlin Firm.
Announcement that u Berlin Ann of
music publisher* Is Hbout to Issue the
wore of Wagner's "Llebesverbot" will
he hailed with acclaim by upusic lovers
throughout the world.
"Prohibition of Ix>ve," to translate
the title, was written during the youth
of the famous composer, and shows
more plainly than do his other earlier
works the period of transition through
which he passed before he matured In
to the producer of the compositions
which brought him fame and estab
lished his particular school of music.
It Is bused on "Measure "for Meas
ure." It is the only Wagnerian compo
sition in which the characters speak
some of (he lines. Ninety years ago
the composition ? was glVSfi a perform
ance In Magdeburg. It proved a dis
mal 1'ailUre. It was never -published,
and on Christmas, 1800, Wagner him
self 'gave the score to I/Wlwdg II of
Bavaria. Since then, the manuscript
has l>een preserved among the Bava
rian crown treasures.
Though the text of the opera has
been published, only fragments of the
music have been available In the past.
Preparations are being made through
out music centers to give the offering
an elaborate revival when It Is Intro
duced to the public of today.
Revival of the Bicycle.
There Is a marked revival of cycling
In England, and the cheapest known
form of transport, which has never
really wmied in popularity. Is finding
additional support by reason of recent
utterances by famous medicos. These
gentlemen declare that the pursuit of
cycling Is hpalthier than any other:
tha' musrular effort and regular
breathing, which are the double-har
ness steeds of cycling, are more con
ducive to health than the remedial
physic of the medical profession. The
OLympla show reveals a magnificent
range of British pedal cycles.? British

Truck That Walks.
A German engineer has constructed
a motor truck which does not move on
wheels, but not unlike the Martians
described by H. <fe. Wells in his "War
of the Worlds," can stride with the
help of "legs" across deserts and
swamps, can wade "knee-deep" through
rivers, stamp through snowftelds and
step across ditches, and fell tree trunks
and other obstacles In Its path, says a
European dispatch to the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. For this purpose It Is
furnished with two pairs of skids, one
of which alwa>s rests on the ground,
while the othe.r Is moving forward with
the load. When "walking" normally
Its stride measures about four feet In
length, but, like a human being, It can
regulate It when walking uphill or
when stepping across an obstacle In its
way. With Its skids, which are ten
feet long, It strides along the roads at
a pace of six miles per hour, or about
twice as fast as an ordinary person
can go. It can go backward, turn com
pletely around Its axles without mov
ing from the spot, and it even walks
sideways if required.
