Cardui.
Clinton, Miss.—“Thanks to Cardui,”
writes Mrs. Lena Gresham, of this place,
I have been greatly relieved.”
“I suffered for three years from female
inflammation, and had taken medicine
from four different physicians without
much benefit.
I have received more benefit from
seven bottles of Cardui, titan front all the
ihysicians.”

It speaks for itself. It has helped so
many thousands, it must be able to
help you.
Trying Cardui won't hurt you. It is
safe, harmless, gentle in action, and
purely vegetable.
If you are weak, tired, down and out,
try Cardui.
if you are sick, miserable, and suffer
from womanly pains, like headache,
backache, dragging feelings; pains in
side, arms, legs, etc.—try Cardui.
It is tire medicine for all women.
It is the tonic for you.

"Meadowfflrook Farm” is located
at the foot of Cathedral llllls In the
state of New Hampshire, ami fs the
home of Silas Holden, his wife Jane,
and their grandchild, Mary Holden, a
lass of eighteen years, whose father,
Alvin -Holden, die-l when she was two
years old, of a broken heart. Mary's
mother, Evelyn Holden, is supposed
to have eloped with Alvin's old friend,
Tom Jasper. She received a decoy
letter supposedly from her husband
who was in Boston asking her to come
to the city at once as lie was ill. She
departs for Boston accompanied by
Alvin’s friend, Tom Jasper, who was
widower with a son of ten years.
The day following the departure of
Tom Jasper and Alvin’s wife to Bos
ton, Alvin arrives home safe and well
only to find that his wife had left
home In company with his friend.
Diligent search was at once Institu
ted and continued for two years when
Alvin gave up in despair and died.
Years roll by and IMary grows to
young womanhood guided through
her childhood days by her playmate,
Jim Jasper, son of her mother’s be
trayer, hut her mother's perfidy has
been kept from her all these years.
Jim, however, has been cognizant of
the stigma, yet In the face of these
conditions, he has grown to love Mary
as only an honorable man can love.
His humiliation at the knowledge of
his father’s faithlessness has prevent
ed him front telling Mary of his love
and when he has declared his love to
her grandparents, he is met with op
position although no one holds him
responsible for his father's actions.
However, the maxim, "The sins of the
father shall he visited upon the son,"
seems to apply in Jim's life most
forcibly.
Stanley Ward, a summer boarder
at the farm, seems to have been there
for another purpose than simply for
fresh air. He is aware of the fact
that Mary Holden would some day
inherit a comfortable fortune and he
tried to gain her hand in marriage,
which she refuses.
Tim Slocum, the town constable
and Sira Smith, Justice of the Peace,
who have been doing detective work
and "theorizing" over the case of tho
elopment for sixteen years, have Just
been detailed to watch for a crazy
woman who Is at largo In the vicini
ty. The crazy woman in question
proves to be Evelyn Holden, Mary’s
mother. It Is learned that she has
been kept a captive In an asylum all
these years by Stanley Ward, who
proved to be the murderer of Tom
Jasper and in his desperate effort to
escape the hands of the law he mur
ders Evelyn Holden. Mary, believing
she bas committed the murder, Is in
duced by Stanley Ward to run away
with him.
They are followed by Si Holden and
Jim Jasper, together with Polly Bird
and Billy Bates, two farm servants,
to New York City, where they trace
Stanley Ward, and Mary JSolden to
the. Chinese opium den of San Toy.
Before Evelyn Holden’s death she
reveals Stanley Ward as her murder
er, and declares her daughter Inno
cent. Mary Is finally rescued , from
her would-be-destroyer and brbught
home to “Meadow-Brook Farm.'
Stanley Ward who is contented at be
ing free from the vengeance of the
law, returns and finally receive* tho
Washington, D. C., March 4.—Some
of the president's friends, fearing
that he may oxertax his strength and
physical endurance, are urging him
to cancel some of the many publio
engagements I10 lias made for the
'next few months and to take life a
bit easier until the time arrives for
his summer vacation. Tho past win
ter has been an exceedingly strenuous
one for Mr. Taft and it Is small won'
tier that of late he has appeared fag
ged and worn out at times. During
the past few weeks he lias been ah-
ent from Washington several times
to attend banquets and meetings in
outside cities. Tho trips were made
with the mimnum loss of time and
consequently left the president little
time for rest or recreation.
The schedule of tile presidents
public engagements for the next
three months shows that he will be
kept busy until the arrival of warm
weather. Week after next he is tc
go to Chicago in response to an lnvi
tation to speak at the St. Patrick's
day banquet of tho Irish Fellowship
Club of that city. Tho programme
ptepared for the day is sufficient to
show the strain imposed upon the
president on such ocaslons. li
scheduled to arrive in Chicago at S
o'clock in the morning and will be
escorted by a reception committee tc
tin: LaSalle hotel, where he will lis
ten to the informal addresses of wel
come. At 11 o'clock ho will visit the
Newspaper Club, and at 12:10 o'clock
he will bo entertained at luncheon by
tho local committee. At 3 o'clock
lr. tile afternoon he will make
address in the Auditorium to a con
servatlon convention and at 4 o'clock
he will attend a reception at the
Hamilton club. An hour later he will
receive the members of tho Fellow
ship Club, and at C o'clock he will de
liver his address, so that he may
leave Chicago at 10:30 p.ut . After
an all-night ride he will arrlvi
Rochester in time to speak at a din
nor of the chamber of commerce
that city. Thence he will hurry on
to Albany, where lie will also make
an address. From Albany he will go
to New Haven to attend a meeting
of the Yale Corporation, and the next
day will find him in Providence to
speak at a banquet of the New Eng
land ‘Manufacturing Jewelers.
During the month of April the pres
ident is scheduled to attend public
functions in Washington two or thro
times a week. Ho will address the
National Woman's Suffrage Associa
tion convention and speak at the d
ication of the new home of tho Bu
reau of American Republics and also
at the dedication of'the new library
building at Howard University. The
first of May wll find him again pn
hs way West to fill engagements to
speak In Pittsburg, Cincinnati and
probably one or two other places. A
few days after his return to tho cap
ital he will take a hurried trip to
New York to open the Actors' Fund
Fair in that city.
Men close to the president say that
he Is not in had health in any way
and is physically sound and robust,
hut at tho same time they think he
has been overtasking himself and hav<
not hesitated to advise him to shor
ten his hours of labor wlinn at home,
and to make fewer trips away from
the city or give more time to them
