Be Happy!
Happy the girl, or woman, who has never suffered from
any of the diseases of womanhood! Or, if she has been a
sufferer, happy is she if she has learned of the wonderful
benefits of Cardui, the woman’s tonic!
Cardui is a gentle, tonic remedy, for women’s ailments,
It is a natural medicine—safe, harmless, purely vegetable.
It has been in successful use for more than 50 years. It
has cured thousands. It should do the same for you,
PAKE L. The.
ARDU| Womanss Tonic
Mrs. Mary Neecly, of Denver, Tenn., says, “I think
there is no tonic on earth, as good as Cardui. I used it
with the very best results. I had backache and nearly
everything a woman could suffer with, until I took Cardui.
Now, I feel better than I have for two years. I shall
always recommend Cardui to other suffering women. 1|
can’t praise it too highly. As a medicine for weak, tired,
worn-out women, Cardui is safe and reliable. Try it, today.

Gov. Brown Not A
‘Candidate for Senator
Atlanta, June 17.—Newspaper
men who talked with Gov. Brown at
the capital this morning came away
with the impression that the recent
talk about putting him into thesen
atorial race was gossip, pure and
simple, without a shadow of fact to
support it.
Governor Brown does not want to
run for United States senator. If
aay of his friends cherish the ambi
tion for him, or, which is said to be
likely, if any of Hoke Smith’s ene
mies hope to use Governor Brown
in an effort to harm Smith, it is cer
tain at least that they have not yet
got Gov. Brown’s own consent for it.

THE LEADER-INTERPRISE, TUESDAY JUNE 18, 1712,
LOSES FORTUNE AND WIFE
Californian Reduced to Poverty, Due
to Discharging Debts, Is Sued
for Divorce.
San Francisco—From the highest
position in the commercial and finan
cial world to a condition of penury
where he is compelled to cook his own
meals in a cheap lodging house that
he may be able to conserve his money
to keep up his appearance before his
former associates, Harry Sherwood,
formerly general manager of the Sper
ry Milling company and vice-president
of the San Francisco Merchants’ ex
change, is being sued by his wife for
maintenance.
Disheartened and broken and suffer
ing from, a complication of physical
ills, Sherwood was in court and told
the story of his downfall, the more piti
able because it is apparently due to no
fault of his.
Mrs. Sherwood has been living on a
homestead near Georgetown, El Dora
do county, given to her by Sherwood
when she left him two years ago, he
says,
Sherwood brought action for divorce,
but when Mrs. Sherwood asked for a
change of venue he asked that the suit
be dismissed, for he had not the
means to contest the application. Then
Mrs. Sherwood filled an action for
maintenance in El Dorado county.
The former associates of Sherwood
say he was known as a man of the
kighest business integrity, who dis
charged every just and some unjust
obligations. He is obviously a man of
the finest sensibilities, and his unwil
ling discussion of his misfortunes was
as sad a recital as human misery could
give rise to. It was the story of a
proud man brought almost to despera
tion. It was the story of a man proud
of his reputation for business integ
rity reduced nearly to penury. It was
the story of a man proud of having
contributed to 35 years of wedded hap
piness, during which seven children
were reared and married, dragged into
the humiliating limelight of the divorge
courts. It was the story of a man,
proud of a vigorous body and mind, re
duced to mental and physical distress.
SAYS SHE WAS HUMILIATED
New York Court Awards Woman $250
for Injured Feelings at
Bathhouse.
Albany, N. Y.—The court of ap
peals has decided that a woman who
is ejected from a Coney Island bath
ing establishment after she has paid
the price of admission is entitled to
recover damages for the indignity and
wounded feelings suffered by her
when she was ejected. The court ac
cordingly affirms a verdict of $250 in
a suit brought by Ada S. Aaron
against William J. Ward.
The opinion in the case, written by
Chief Justice Cullen, states that the
plaintiff, intending to take a bath in
the surf, bought a ticket from the de
fendant’s employe for 25 cents, and
took her position in a line of the de
fendant’s patrons leading to a win
dow at which the ticket entitled her
to receive a key to a Dbathhouse.
‘When she approached the window a
dispute arose between her and the
defendant’s employes as to the right
of another person not in the line to
have a ticket given to him in ad
vance of her. As a result the plaintiff
was ejected from the premises, and
the defendant’s agents refused to fur
nish her with the accommodations to
which she was entitled by her ticket.
Upon the trial the defendant con
tended that the plaintiff was not en
titled to recover more than the price
of her ticket, and it is this question
that is considered by the court of
appetls. The plaintif sued for
breach of contract and the defendant
insisted on that ground that she was
not entitled to damages for the in
dignity of her expulsion. In affirming
the judgment for the plaintiff, the
court says that the bathing estab
lishment stands on the same footing
as a place of amusement, and that
one ejected is entitled to damages
for humiliation and indigaity. .
NOT A SAFE DEPOSIT VAULT
Woman Guest’s Mistake in Using:Shoe
Shelf Cost Her An Anxious
Hour.
SRR '
New York.—A handsome woman
guest at the Waldorf-Astoria, from
Georgetown, D. C., is again in the
possession of $9OO in cash and jewelry
valued at $6,000 after believing that
her valuables had been stolen. She
mistook a small wooden box built in
to the woll of her room as a receptacle
for shoes, to be shined, for a safety
deposit vault and placed her valu
ables in it before she retired. When
she awakened she found the money
and jewels missing.
A hurried telephone call was sent
to John Hobby, assistant manager,
and just as an investigation was be
ing started, William Peterson, a hotel
valet, handed Hobby the missing arti
cle.
“While making the rounds for the
shoes,” he said, “I found thic money
and jewelry in the box where the
shoes are placed by the guests for
shining.”
