NEW YORK.—The Blblo con demns evolution, science condemns evolution, but In eplte ot this hypothesis persists, according to William Jennings Bryan, because evolution “tickles tbe vanity of the egotist" and “is the laslest Inao- tlon.” Darwinism was again the target for Bryan’s oratorical sarcasm at Calvary Baptist efbureb, where he spoke on “Science vs. Evolution/ under the direction of the National Bible Institute.

HIGHLANDS.—'United States Coast Guard patrol boats J^Tlday morning seized the motor lighter Napogue with an estimated cargo of nearly sixteen thousand cases of high grade whiskey. The lighter was en route from the rum fleet to the New Jersey shore whe ntt was at first halted t and then seized by the patrol boats j off Sandy Hook. D OWN in the rich fanning belt of Southern Illinois lives Mrs. Mary Alice Larrison, about 40 miles from Terre Haute, who one day wrote a letter telling of the benefit she had received from Cardui, the woman's tonic. One of our lady investigators, being in that neighborhood, was detailed to make a little journey to her home and learn some further facts about her use of the medicine. Her report follows: Casey, Illinois, where Mrs. Larrison lives, is a picturesque little town on the Pennsylvania Railroad. Twelve miles from Casey the Larrison farm lies amid wide-spreading fields dotted with bursting bams, cribs of corn, herds of fine white cattle and hogs. We drove out to the farm—to a white house with green window shuttersand a wide porch. A little terrier, followed by two spotted pups, greeted us and summoned Mr. Larrison. We were cordially invited in, and 1 introduced myself to Mrs. Larrison. She said she had been expecting a rich aunt, and when ever she saw a stranger coming imagined the visitor j might be the long-looked-for relative. I hastened to j assure her how I regretted that she should be disap pointed again, since I had only called to inquire about her use of Cardui and to take some pictures, if she would permit, to print with her statement She re plied that, in this case, she was as glad to see me as if I had been the wealthy "lost” aunt herself. Some twenty-odd years ago, Mr. and Mrs, Lar rison bought the farm on which they now live. It has been the childhood home of their fourteen children, the youngest of which is 14 years old.' Mrs. Larrison told me that care'for her large family had called for millions of steps “and many comers to turn to give them what they needed,” but happily she had come through it all with sound, robust health, due partly, so she said, to Cardui. About sixteen years ago when oil was struck in Clark County, Illinois, wells were drilled on the Larrison place. While they did not come in gushers, or even yield a heavy flow, they have withstood steady pumping for sixteen years, and probably will hold out many years longer. I went out into the backyard with Mrs. Larrison and examined and photographed one pump which was pounding away. She pointed out several others, out in the fields, some of which we visited. These not only yield a substantial income to the Larrisons, but one famishes natural gas for kitchen fuel, a great convenience. The back yard was full of chickens, and out on the pasture I saw upwards of 100 hogs. Some dozen Dr more big porkers were enclosed in a barnyard lot for special feeding, They were enormous. I saw several pens ofyeHow com that was to be fed to the hogs, and there was scarcely an ear that looked less than a foot in length. They also had large stores of potatoes and apples, cord after cord of furnace wood, a room full of books and a newspaper every day—why should they worry that it was winter, snowing, and twelve miles from town! J What Mrs. LanrisoiTSftys About Cardui, The Woman’s Tonic A BOUT 20 years ago I was hfvety bad health, 1 had some nervous trouble. I was weak. I couldn’t rest I was; never hungry, but always tired; couldn’t sit down contented and still not able to go )ut—a dragging, tired feeling like I had weights on my feet, and I would give out ^ I heard of Cardui and what a help it was for weak women. I sent for six botUes.f I had not taken it long till 1 felt stronger. I would eat and It seemed to help the nervous, tired feeling,' I grew stronger. I took twelve bottles in all and fora long time I never knew what it was to feel bad.' When change of life began'wlth'rne^down I went again—nervous, depressed, sick all over. I was so weak it looked like life was ebbing out of me.. I hurt in the lower part of my body. I felt sore across the sides. My family was very uneasy about me when I was down tabbed, not able to get up. I tried medicines still I lay there. I then remembered CardoL I sent for it, and when I had taken one-half bottle I felt better. The family insisted, seeing it was doing me good, so I took it right along. Soon I was out of bed, able to go about I owe my health to Cardui, I feel sure. I was much benefited. MARY ALICE LARRISON- Casey, Illinois,
