time, I have token it sever*! times

medicine and I am glad to give people
the benefit of my experience.
"I have been a nuree for several
years and have often oome in contact
with patients who were rundown

myself, had l>een heh?ed after taking

a trial- Many of them have sinoe

"I first took Cardol because I was
awfully run-down. I had no appetite,
and was weak and listless. It
was hard to keep going under such
conditions, and I looked for something
which would help me.

to toy it After taking it. I improved
so much that I have taken it'

Since 1920, a first mortgage i? a

Now won't the girls just be the cucest

Sen. Borah had collected $7.98 on <

this money back now. The govern- t

I talked to an optomist yesterday.
He was a farmer. I drove out to his
house and viewed his premises. His
dwelling was in a dilapidated condition,
the blinds were falling off, the
paint was gone, the steps had disappeared,
the shingles had about rotted.
His barn was leaning to one
side and ready to fall, his outhouses
were relics of better days, his plow
tools were scattered around the cow
lot. BUT.
He had a brand new 6-cylinder automobile
under the shed. It was only
2 weeks old, It shined and glistened
in all its lustre* anil "brilliant colors.
?The man was happy and hopeful.
He Baid he gave a mortgage on
his 3 mules and on his crop for the
car, and he expected to make enough
money to pay for it, and paint his
house, and cover his barn, and brighten
up things generally around the old
place.
He hadn't bought any guano. He
said it was so high he decided to let
'em keep 1t. He was a little bit shy
of mule feed, but had an acre of oats
coming on. He seemed to be well
pleased with too much rain, but I
suppose he will make a crop of some
kind, and I a*m sure that he will ride
while he's making it, because there
sat the car?right under the shed.
Historical Data
I continue to receive letters from
friends who seem anxious to know
something about me and my past
life. I don't understand what difference
ftiis makes with anybody, but
I suppose we are all more or less
curious. I intend to answer the following
letter which came to me a
few days ago;
Greenville, S. C.f May 6, 1928.
Mr. Gee McGee, *
Anderson, -S. C.

Your friend,

Folks, this child ought t# be anr"

and when they get so concerned
that they want to put you in
Pl^erip book, it's time to fly to
their rescue. Everything about this
letter is true except this child's name
is not Gladys S.- To moke a long j
story longer, I wrote, her the letter
that follows, and I certainly hope it
will please her:
Dear Miss Gladys??

The new Fords ure coming on the
market pretty fast. The dealer in
Hoonville got I last week and the
lealer in Piketowu is looking for 1 .
?veek after next and a dealer over in j
Georgia is expecting 2 to be allotted >
him during June. There will possi- j
t>Iy be 2 or 8 trucks out in a month j
n so. Henry Ford is a hustler?and i
a piker too when it comes to chang- J
ing models."
Sammie Skalper got drunk the oth,r
night on hair tonic and went home
ind pulled all of his wife's hair out,
and just the night before, he got
soaked on shoe polish and ate up 2
pairs good shoes. First thing anybody
knows he's going to imbibe too
freely on white lightning and strike
the wrong fellow. He always talks
about prohibition taking away his
iberty.
Uncle Joe says when ' he went to
school 'way back yonder that the
teacher would draw a straight chalk
line on the floor and when she held
classes she'd require every pupil to
"toe the mark." Uncle Jote's fpot
was so big he stood about 12 inches
>ut of line, and lots of the time, the
teacher would "skip" him and that
suited him all right. He uster lick
his slate and eat slate pencils, and
furthermore?everybody drank out of
the same gourd or dipper, all of
which goes on to prove that germs
didn't exist 35 years ago. Uncle Joe
dropped out of school about the time
h? got to "baker," but he's smart
when an argument comes up. He s
got me skint a block. I have to
work for a living and he doesn't.
Cotton Letter
Now York, May 17.?The market
ruled quiet on the opening, but when
the weather bureau reported probable
showers in Kansas next month,
July showed considerable strength
while May and August eased off. The

1 of boll weevils is concerned. They
have not been able to lay any eggs

: cotton is too bite to furnish breeding

more politicians and less interest in
business from now on. N. B. This
.refers to boll- weevils and not the
bulls). Dame Fashion says cotton
stockings will not be worn until longex
dresses come back. Cotton or no
cotton, here's one farmer who hopes
cotton stockings will never be worn
again if it takes away our-side-showJ.
