Mrs. Maiinda Akers, of Basham, Va,, wri: •>:
“I had what doctors call ‘prolapse,’ and couldn’t
stand straight. I had pain in my back and
shoulders, and was very irregular and profuse.
Doctors said an operation was needed, but 1
couldn’t bear the thought of the knife. After tak
ing three bottles of Wine of Cardui, 1 could walk
around. Can now do my housework and am in
splendid health.”
Cardui is a pure, vegetable, medicinal essence,
especially adapted to cure women’s diseases. It
relieves excessive periodical pains, regulates
irregularities, and is a
safe, pleasant and re
liable remedy for all
sick women. In suc
cessful use for over 70
years. Try it.

An Appeal for “The Bread Line.”
Tho Bowery Mission "Bread Line,"
at which 1,000 men who are out in
the streets for the night are given a
breakfast of hot coffee and rolls every
morning at one o’clock, Is one of the
most pathetic sights in all the wide,
wide world. Long before the hour of
opening, these jioor, starving men
stand in a single line that sometimes
extends for blocks in length, waiting
fop the coffee and rolls. During the
last winter, this breakfast was given
to a total of 144,000 homeless men
am] hoys, and up to date nearly half
a million of the homeless have had
their weary tramp restfully Interrupt
ed by this unique ministration. The
first of these breakfasts is given on
Thanksgiving morning, and the last
on the following Easter morning. Al
together the Mission supplied, this
year, over 233,000 meals and 10.072
lodgings t 0 homeless men and boys.
It is for this grand, philanthropic
work that we ask your kind and
practical co-operation. The home
less. friendless, disheartened and des
pairing men and hoys of the Bowery
are not native New Yorkers, but men
and boys who, until within a year,
lived happily at the old homestead
with father and mother, and perhaps
wife. They are stranded here, and
in despair appeal to the Old Bowery
Mission, which, for over thirty years,
has been to the unfortunate, as the
rescue cities of old, a haven of en
couragement, rest and protection.
Shall we turn them away? It rests
with the good people of this country
to decide this question, and may God
graciously help you to decide it aright.

Without Being “Dudes.”
The day of “dudes” has long since
passed, and the young men today aim
to dress well and in style because it
pays, and not because they want to
be “dudish.”
This condition has largely been
brought about by such manufacturers
of young men’s clothes as Ederhelm-
er, Stein & Co„ of Chicago. This firm
has kept pace with advance ideas of
young men of this generation; their
large business hag been built up
everywhere in this country by meet
ing the demand of young men for
modish, strictly up-to-date style ef
fects; and these things are features
in their suits and overcoats especially
designed for young men.
The gafest way for any young man
to be sure that his clothes are of the
latest fashion in cut and material and
expert tailoring is to go to dealers
handling these famous young men’s
clothes and choose just the garments
which best suit his taste and appear

the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
