Weak
Back
Mrf. Mildred Pipkin, of
R. V. I). 8, Columbia, Tenn.,
?ays: "My experience with
Cardiff has covered a numbe.* ef
years. Nineteen years ago . . .
I got down with Weak back. 1
was run-down and so weak and
nervous 1 bad to stay in bed.
I read ot
CARDUI
The Woman's Tonic
and sent for it. 1 took only one
bottle at that time, arid it helped
mc; seemed to strengthen and
build me right up. So that is
how 1 first knew of Cardul.
After that, . . . when 1 began to
get weak and *no account', I
sent right for Cardui, and if
never failed to help. me."
If you are weak and suffering
ftom womanly ailments, Cardui
may be just what you need.
Take Cardui. It has helped
thousands, and ought to help
you.

NEW TO VIENNA
Really Remarkable Innovations
In the Old City.
?II!
Marriage Advisory Office Inatituted '
aa Social Reform ? Telle Whin
*nd When Not to Marry.
Young- republics rush In where :
hoary monarchies refuse to tread, j
That la why republican Vienna <an uf- j
ford to test social experiments which
would have been unthinkable in the
Hapsburgs' halcyon daya. writes Fred
erick Kuh in a Vlennu letter to the
Naw York Evening l'ost.
Two of the latest Innovations under
the new regime bid fair to become
milestones In social reform. One of
these Is the lierufsberatungsstelle, or
vocational guidance department; the
other Is the Kheberatungssielle, or
advisory ottlce. lioth of the*e insti
tutions are still on trial and have bare
ly celebrated their first birthday, but
with a year's experience to survey, it
is possible now to form some estimate
of their accomplishments.
The marriage advisory office was
created In June, 1922, an the result of
a campaign by liberals and social
democrats In the city council. It should
be stated at once that the purpose of
this department of the Viennese mu
nicipality has no time for playful flap
pers.
The chief of this municipal office Is
l>r. Carl Kautsky, young, serious, en
thusiastic, a physician and son of the
famous social democrat. The office 1b
open for consultations twice weekly;
anyone may reckon with the fullest
privacy In his Or ht r dealings with the
bureau. ,
Its basic principle is that a certain
.quality of health |s no less necessary
to a satisfactory marriage than a cer
tain quantity of money."
The number of Viennese who patron
ize the marriage advisor's bureau Is
constantly increasing. Thus far the
experiment has been a notable. success.
The "business of the marriage advisor
Is manifold. A glance into the ofllcial
record discloses that the class of per
sons soliciting advice on matrimonial
afTnlrs ranges from metal workers to
colonels In the Austrian army. The
bulk of cases Include young couples
wishing to know whether they are
physically qualified for marriage,
whether they hope to have children
and whether those children may be ex
posed to hereditary Ills.
I'nllke the municipal marriage advis
ory olthe, the pity's vocational guid
ance department is not unique. Simi
lar, but not identical, institutions are
functioning in Rerlin, Hamburg and
other (ierman centers. In Vienna this
orgnnlzatlon is chletly concerned with
helping school children to make their
own choice of h trade or profession
and equipping the did to till the de
sired positiou competently. In this
respect the Viennese municipality is
assuming a task which, In America, is
left to private philanthropic enter
prises.
one-fifth of all children about to
leave school ami enter the world of
bread-winners have been guided In
their selection of an occupation by this
deportment's specialists. In most cases,
every effort is made to Induce parents
to allow children to continue their
education in high schools.
Wherever poverty or the child's un
fitness for study Is ascertained, an at- |
tempt is undertaken to locate the boy j
or gir! in some skilled employment
in each case the child's physical and I
educational records are carefully vx- j
ttmlned. The teacher or parents have ;
already filled out a questionnaire, de- j
scribing the child's memory, lnqulsl- j
tiveness. imagination, will power, frail- ;
ties and talents. The choice of voca- :
ti?>n is based upon these answers, o>u- j
pled with the findings of tho expert. ?'

The Plebeians.
The Plebeians were the commoners
of Home, who were originally forbid
den nil political rights. They were for
the most part poor, and not allowed to
Intermarry with the Patricians. They
served In the army without pay, were
sold into slavery for debt, and could
even be cut In pieces for distribution
among tliejr creditors. Finding their
condition intolerable, the Plebeians, in
404 IV C.. repaired to Mons Sacer.
near Home, where they resolved to
build a new city; but this step so
alarmed the privileged classes that
they granted to the Plebeians the right
of choosing annually from their own
number two magistrates, called
tribunes, with power to protect them
against aggressions of the Patricians.
After the lapse of about two hundred
years the disabilities of the Plebeians
were almost entirely removed.
Charitable American Sailors,

States ship Kdsall, a destroyer of >

children were rescued from Smyrna lit
the time of the disastrous lire and
were loaded <>n a ship hound for Mity

prevailed upon the commander to
take them aboard the Edsall. The

; "Red Heads" Becoming
Rare, Scientist States
Washington. ? The blonde girl has
become a subject of scientific re
search. Included In the annual report
of the Smithsonian Institution, recent
ly made public, Is a serious, scientific
paper by Dr. Ales HnUicka of the
United States national museum, deal
ing with the color of the eyes, hair
and skin of 2,000 men and women
members of old American families.
The real blonde, Dr. Ilrdlicka finds,
is a mre object, hut far rarer still
are the true redheads, and most rare
of all Is the absolute brunette. Among
men nnd women he "found little dif
ference In the frequency of blondes
and brunettes, but there are Jive red
headed women 10 two red-headed men.
One out of every sixteen men has
real blonde hair; one out of every 50
has red hair; one out of every 100
has hair that Is truly black.
One of every 14 women has blonde
hair; one out of every 20 wmnon has
red hair; one out of ]imi has solid
black hair.
Those in between are in the ma
jority ? the rnou>v browns, the dish
water gnus and th?>?e with no hair at
all.
One in every men has pure
white skin, whe^-as one in lifty
women can claim that distinction.
