I Back Quitfl I Hurting g I W "I was in a very weak condition 11 from a serious Ki sickness," writes Q Mrs. I.

M y "acK ached nearly all the rai n time, i was just in misery. ! 11 "My mother told me 1 must ftl l| arouse myself from the sleepmess, and take something to ^ help get my strength back, L. She had taken Cardui and P-j tU had oecn helped, so i decided 11 to tate Cardui, too. After kV II my first bottle, I could see N 1 that it was nelping me. I flLi k| took four bottles at this time.

In order to overcome this ' handicap, I sent off and got me an electrical hearing apparatus and if I J can ever get used to it, I think it i will enable me to hear a man talk < when he s, talking about money or ' short dfesses. It fits like a set of J harness. i I Now this new listener is a little hit of trouble to wear. It has a ] head band that takes the place of 1 * blind bridle. A large breastplate i represents the collar and hames. The ? aattery is fastened to a pair of lines 4 and they pass around to the hip ' pocket and serve as the surcingle? J ind then there is a receiver and a ( transmitter and a volume regulator | ind a static reducer and an antennea j ?to complete the horse 4PP&''el. 1 I have' been somewhat "jubus" > about wearing this instrument around ' luring a thunder-storm, but to pro- ( tect myself against lightning, I am ' planning to tie a small chain to my ' coat tail and let it drag along behind me like similar chains drag behind big gasoline trucks. This chain will serve as a ground-wire as well as a possible static eliminator, But to tell the truth, I didn't realize that this old world was so fussy t-nd noisy till I donned that deef contraption. I he worst feature about this "hearer" is the inability to determine from whench came the sweet voice that calls one or says a word :>r two of taffy to him. Just last night while at a party, I heard a flapper say something that 1 felt was directed to me, and before I finally found out which one she was, I had passed a corps of 17 beauties, asking each one if she addressed me. And there's some whistling doue by the device ever now and then, and no one has yet been able to decide why or how the whistle whistles. A deaf person should be pitied by every living person who can hear well. My idea of "down yonder" is for a deaf man to be "up here"* and be surrounded by a flock of bathing beauties?all of whom are whispering something to him?and he can't determin whether they are saying what he hopes they saying or whether they are telling Ibfut his shirt-tail is hanging out. Iber once when a lady asked ine to take a walk with her?and I said, "No, thanks; I don't smoke"?and it was at night too. It does look like somebody somewhere would invent a thing that would not load a person down with wires. and tubes and batteries and springs?so's he could try to hear in comfort. Most of our geniuses are all the time doing something electrically for the people who don't appreciate their work. As much as we know about electricity today, a firstclass hearing device should not be larger than a compact or heavier than a watch. Henry Ford*s Town Leads Washington, May 19.?Dearborn, Mich., littlest on the list, showed the most spectacular gain among sixty-odd cities of 50,000 to 100,000 population thus far reporting in the 1930 census. Henry Ford's city, over the dividing line with sixty to spare, is about twenty-five times as large now as its population was printed in the 1920 census. The census has revealed that one Porto Rican couple has 18 sons, all living at' home. Another family has been found with 31 children by three marriages.

Goudelock, is just now out of hand M&O worth of groceries, for which Mr. (ioudelock says he ha9 given up hope of collecting anything, thanks to the unneighborly conduct of a man named K. C. Taylor, who came :o the community several weeks ago to buy timber* for a Oolumbia con-j . em, which converted the timber in-, to barrel staves. Before leaving Kort Mill rather suddenly Saturday morning, Mr, Taylor is also said to ?ave neglected to pay some eight or ten laborers wages due them to the iinount of something like $225. The aborers will not lose the money due j them, however. They got in touch ,vith the Columbia concern represent?d by Taylor and the concern readily igreed to pay them. One of the laborers, a white man, said that Tay- j or received a check Suturday to pay ! them for their work and took the I heck to one of the local banks and ; iad it cashed. The laborers waited n front of the bank for Taylor to reappear with their money, but Tayor left the building by a side door, ' t is alleged, and hurriedly left town n an automobile without telling any ' bf the party awaiting his return <oodl>ye.?Fort IVTill Times.
