Catron, Ky.?In an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows: "I suffered for four years, with womanly troubles, and during this time, I could only sit up lor a little while, and could not walk anywhere at all. At times, I would have severe pains in my left aide. The doctor was called in, and his treatment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed ?gain. After th^ nothing seemed to do me any good. 1 had gotten so weak I could not stand, and I gave up in despair. At last, my husband got me a bottle of Cardui, the woman's tonic, and 1 commenced taking it From the very first dose, I could tell it was helping me. I can now walk two miles without its tiring me, and am doing my work." If you are all run down from womanly troubles, don't give up in despair. Try Cardui, the woman's tonic. It has helped more than a million women, in its 50 years of wonderful success, and should surely help you, too. Your druggist has sold Cardui for years.

The auger fish, half fish, half crab, is the terror of all vessels but ironclads that use the south seas. This creature, which is not bigger than an almond, has a proboscis like an enlarged gnat sting that can bore through even sheet iron. Auger fish frequent many of the lagoons of the coral islands and burrow holes for themselves in the coral, but they have a perverse habit of doing the same thing to ships lying at anchor, and the damage generally shows itself when neit the vessel is at sea in bad weather, with disastrous results.
