She says further: "Before I began to use' Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework, as well as tun a big water mill. I wish every suffering woman would give CARDUI The Woman's Tonic a trial. I still use Cardu when I feel a little bad, and it always does me good." Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness, tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman's tonic.

Bennettsville, S C., April 22.-The barbecue and fish fry at Aelcaurin's 1111 was attended by a large crowd Friday. For many years, Senator Jno. L. AlcLaurin has been in the habit of giv ing a dinner to the people on his plan tation. It grew then into neighbor hood affair. This year it was given under the auspices of the \Voodmen of the World and became a county af fair. The mill pond furnished hundreds of delicious blue bream, trout and red-breasts. A beef was barbecued, mutton, pork and fish formed the basis of the repast, and everybody in the large crowd had all they could eat. What a tribute to good order, not a man drinking, and not a drop of whiskey anywhere. Instead the pure artesian water, and the grand old spring at the foot of the hill, as clear as crystal and cold as ice. Senator J. A. lanks, and Mr. W. P. Odom were the guests of the occasion. Col. .1, P. ; Gibson was master of cere monies, and in a speech of 20 minutes cnIled attention to the historic call upon1 which they were assembled.

Washington, April 20.-According to authentic information reaching Washington Great Britain and France, in their joint note replying to the American protest against interference with neutral trade, made no attempt to dispute principles contended for by the United States, but insist that those principles have been given legal in terpretation and application by the allies in their blockade of Germany and Austria. This note which will be handed to the state department within the next (lay or two by the British and French ambassadors, is understood to be long and extremely technical, treating of the whole subject on a purely legal basis and replying largely on the prin iples laid down by the United States in the War Between the States. It is said that the allies claim that the linited States does not contend that it has a right to ship goods without restrictions into Germany or Austria Iihrough contiguttos neutral countries, such as Hlolland, Sweden and Den mark. ''le concession of the right to block ode an enemy country, which is uni versally recognized, is regarded as necessarily carrying with it the right to regu late the admission of goods to a neutral con ntrty evidently destined to be transferred to the enemy. Con seq uently it is 'contended that i is perfectly within the spirit of interna tional law to limit im pors into a non tral country such as 1lolland of goods that niht hie of use to Germany and .\ustria to the amount normally con tamed in the neitr al country. .\lore over. it is: argue'd that inei Ih nit to the exercise of tihis righ!t of regulation I imports is til e rlight to search vessels aiproachin the nt tral coast. In this connection the allies hold that while in early days it was possible to conduct such a search at sea, conditions of modern sea tralic have made this impossible; hence it has become necessary to take the neutral ship to the nearest convenient port. This is the explana tion offered for the apparent unrea sonable diversion of many ships from their regular courses and what has been complained of as an unnecessary delay in search. It was with a view to reducing com plaint on this score that arrange ments were made for the british em lassy here to advise with American shippers whether their cargoes would probably be subjeteed to search. Complaint by the United States that the prize courts cannot he rece ognized as competent to render final decision in the cases of seized or de tained vessels and cargoes is met by reference to the recent decision in England to the effect that prize courts msii at he governed by the principle: Of ittertntional law and, where or iders in conniel I confIIliet.

Altogether it was. a unique enter tait ent, vastly enjoyed, by all pres ent Reliability O UR absolute faith in the Max well car is due to two reasons: First, we have known that the Maxwell Company uses nothing in the entire car but the very best that money can buy. We have known that the steel is scientifically heat treated, that the car is built under the supervision of able engi neers, that every car is rigidly tested many times before it leaves the factory. Second, we have known that the big and well established company behind the car is building for the future, that they value a satisfied owner above everything else. Now that the Maxwell has set the World's Motor Non-Stop Mileage Record, by travelling continuously for 44 days and nights-averaging 500 miles per day-you will under stand the benefits you personally may derive from the Maxwell policy. Did you ever hear of any car going. 22,000 miles without once stopping the engine, without any repairs or readjustments, with only one gallon of gasoline to every 22 miles? ... There is no reason why you shouldn't have a reliable, service able and economical Maxwell car.
