It made no difference to this person that the scandal affected the ^itlgtMer of his neighbor—that the mother of the girl was seriously ill— that the brother was just entering what promised to be a successful profession al career. The scandal was rich in flavor, and he wanted to see it in the paper. He told the editor about it with every evidence of the keen relish of the scandal connisseur, but impress ed upon the newspaper man that the source of his information must be kept inviolably secret. When the paper came out, the man returned to demand why the story hadn't been printed. Short, sharp words followed, and the visitor called the editor a coward and left, vowing that a man who w afraid to print the news had no right to lie an editor. To our mind, that editor was a brave man. The informer who demanded that his name be kept secret was the coward. The editor ran a paper in a small town. So closely re lated were the lives of the inhabitants, that the editor knew every detail of the story before called on visi tor called on him. But he could see no profit for himself nor glory for his paper in printing an item that would bring sorrow to the gray hairs of i father, disgrace to a brother and prob ably serious consequences to a sick mother. If the news appetites of his readers were so voracious, he thought, as to demand this costly food, he would refuse to pay the price. The editor was right. Many things he has to print which he would rather leave unsaid, but the scandal which has only its “spice” to recommend it should have no pj^ce in the columns of a self-re specting paper. We would rather build than tear down. We would rath er print the things that help and en courage and uplift than to hold up the mistakes of some unfortunate to the scorn and comtempt of his neighbors. Decency is not lack of courage. If it were, we would rather be decent than courageous.

C.-"I suffered for three summers,” writes Mrs. Walter Vincent, of this town, “and the third and last time, was my worst. 1 had^ dreadful nervous headaches and prostration, and was scarcely able to walk about Could not do any CjLmy housework. 1 also had dreadful pains in my back and sides and when one of those weak, sinking spells would come bn me, 1 would have to give up and lie down, until it wore off. 1 was certainly in a dreadful state of health, when 1 .finally decided to try C&rdui. the woman’s tonic, and I firmly believe 1 would have died if. 1 hadn’t taken it. After 1 began taking Cardui, 1 was greatly helped, and all three bottles re lieved me entirely. 1 fattened up, and grew so much stronger in three months, 1 felt like an other person altogether.” Cardui is purely vegetable and gentle- acting. Its ingredients have a mild, ionic effect, on the womanly constitution Cardui makes for increased strength, improves the appetite, tones up the ner vous system, and helps to make pale, sallow cheeks, fresh and rosy. Cardui has helped more than a million weak women, during the past 50 years. It will surely do for you, what it has done for them. Try Cardui today. Write to: Chatunooca Medkln* Co..
