Girlf Arc Advised To Binild-Up For Relief Lack of knowledge causes many a weak, undernourished girl a lot of suffering! Many others, however, know how the headaches, nervousness, cramptike pain or functional dysmenorrhea due to malnutrition are helped by the proper use of CARDUI. Some take It a few days before and during "the time," to Help ease periodic distress. But CARDUI'S principal use is to help increase appetite; stimulate the flow of gastric juice; so aid digestion, assist in building up physical resistance and thus help reduce periodical distress. Women have used CARDUI for over 60 years. REPORT OF CONDITION OP THE COMMERCIAL BANK OF CAMDEN. SOUTH CAROLINA, A MEMBER OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM.

Man medial practices considered by laymen 89 modern miracles were conceived and used extensively centuries ago, according to Dr. Kurt F. Leidecker of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Bone-setting is nearly "as old as civilized man," cutting of the skull was practiced by backward tribes before Columbus discovered America, and hypnosis is several hundred years old. n% Trepanation, or cutting through the skull to relieve pressure or Irritation of the brain, was an art of ancient witch doctors, Dr. Leidecker said. "This operation was already in vogue in neolithic man, among the Incas and backward Indians, Polynesian and other tribes," he explained. "The malady, however, whether insanity or a headache, was identified with evil spirits, and the surgical opening of the skull or the incision of the scalp?with subsequent cauterization?was supposed to allow evil spirits to escape. "Bone-setting is an art almost as old as civilized man. Practiced in Egypt about 4,500 years ago with sufficient frequency that we are able to attest to it by excavations, it implies at least a primitive knowledge of bony and cartilaginous regeneration. Not only direct medical practices, but also community disease preventive work and social measures now being discussed in congress and state legislatures as revolutionary social advances, are 2,000 years old, according to Dr. Leidecker. "Prophylactics in medicine, hygiene, diet, clearance of slum districts, sanitary, prevention of crime ?all these were practiced 2,000 years ago in India," hie said. "The utilization of herbs and animal substances for relief or cure go back into hoary antiquity. "The old Hindu physician applied mental suggestion much the same as the modern psychiatrist ddes." A-Men Organized to War On Insects and Disease WASHINGTON.?Little bug, you better watch out or the "A-man" will get you! The agriculture department has organized a staff of animal, insect and plant detectives along the lines of the famous Justice department's "G-man" squad. The work is under the direction of three agriculture department bureaus?biological survey for animals and birds, entomology for insects and plant quarantine for plant diseases. These pests cause damage of billions of dollars a year, more than human criminals. Some of them, - such as mountain lion, have been sought as murderers. "Wolves "public enemy No. 1" of the animal world, kill live stock. Grasshoppers are the "public enemy No. 1" among insect pests. Others are Mormon crickets, white fringe beetles, Japanese beetles, pink boll worms, cotton boll weevils, and gypsy moths. Plant diseases include Dutch elm disease, whits pine rust and black stem rust. The most recent case solved by the bureau of biological survey was that of the ground mole, accused by gardeners with eating valuable bulbs and underground parts of plants. The bureau absolved the mole of actually committing any crime, but found he was "an accessory before the fact." "The myriad tunnels dug by the mole, however, often become runways for the actual criminal, the small, short-tailed pine mice, or, in some instances, the field, or meadow mice," the bureau said. Emerson's 'Old Manse' to Be Preserved as Shrine CONCORD, MASS. ? The Old Manse, near the famous Concord battleground, is to be preserved as ^ * L I * , ??V? >< ?. ^ m [vul/iic oiiliiitr. The home of Ralph Waldo Emerson and for a time of Nathaniel Hawthorne, is to be purchased by the trustees of public reservations. The plan is to have the old manse open to the public from May 1 to October 1 each year. The house is best known through Hawthorne's "Moses From an Old Manse," written while he spent his honeymoon there. Also it is the ancestral home of Emerson and part of the scene of the historic battle of Concord at Old North Bridge, on April 19, 1775, whefe the first shot of the American Revolution was fired. The house was built in 1789 by ' Reverend William Emerson, who watched the bridge battle from his window.
