If proper care is taken a railroad < ros-ing is just as safe as a street « ive-eing n<iwa r days. Unless care is taken it is many times more darlger- (Hm. But automobile drivers who habitually slow down at street cross ings to prevent possible collision wit h at her automobiles dash recklessly over railroad crossings without a thought of the greater danger of be ing struck by a train. Even where the schedules o.f trains ar«' known th*•^• is no excuse of tak ing a chance by not .swopping because the railroads run many extra trains and lighf engines which air as dead ly to automobiles as those in the printed timetables. Nobody who stopped to look and listen was ever killed at a railroad crossing. The IVObO people kille.l at such crossings jn f> years died because they were in too much of a hurry to wait seven seconds to save their lives. , Although the vaihoads spend large sums of money to install protective devicn> at crossings nothing can take the place of carefulness on the part of the public. Not all of the acci dents are caused by trains hitting au tomobiles. In about 20 per cent, of all crossing accidents the automobiles 1 or other vehicles weir actually driven headlong against the trains. Not long ago while a train of the Atlantic Coast Line wu- standing at a station the- fireman was knocked ofT the step <'t the locum,otive and [Kiinfully in jured by a n*cklesslv driven automo- bile whose* dt iver seemed tT* think he could |u»-h the train* off the- track. At present the re arp too many •motorL>t.s uf tiw "Save—Seven ■ Sec- oneis orDie” type; hut if every auto mobile- driver can be made to,realize the clanger which lurks m railroad e rodings and to become a member in fact,..or in principle of a "Stop.

F. Duncan. Morse, La.—Mrs. L. P. Lam bert, who has* been a popular school-teacher here for several years, recently told a visitor <(>f her interesting experiences with Cardui. “Just before my . . . came on,” said Mrs. Lambert, “I would ache all over. My feet, my toes, my arms, hands, head—my whole body seemed td be in one awful pain. I would grow so nervous that I could not hold a cup in my hand. My husband would have to hold my coffee for me to drink.' Last fall I was in such a bad condition that I had to spend about three days in bed every month. It seemed to me that I was on my last go-round." Then one day, said Mrs. Lam bert, she happened to read about Cardui and the experiences of some women who had been helped by it. “I felt that Ca/dui might h?lp me if I tried it," she continued, “for I had been suf fering with similar troubles to those mentioned there. 1 had heard of Cardui all my life and I knew many women who said (they had been helped by it. The very next day I began to take it. “Very aoon after, I Jaegan to inotice my improvement. I kept on till I felt like a different^ woman. I gained in weighiTrom 98 pounds jto 116 and felt better than I had in years. I took six bottles right along and found it a splendid tonic. My suffering was partly due to a run-down condition and the Cardui stimu lated my appetite and helped me to gain the strength I needed. ... I take a bottle every now and then, even now, just as a tonic to keep up ray strength, but I am in better health than I have been in for years." 1 All druggists sell Cardui. 1 Try it. ~ jn Trees and Plants THE h ^ Mrs. J.
