JOHN R. MOTT General Secretary of National War Work Council, Y. M. C. A., Who Has Been Accorded High Honors by French Government. Asa mark of recognition and appre ciation of the work done for the French soldiers by the American Y. M. C. A. forces abroad, the French government has conferred the signal honor of Chevalier of the Legion of Honor upon General Secretary John R. Mott, of the National War Work Council of the Army and Navy Y. M. C. A. Telegraphic advices from Washing ton conveyed the news of the distinc tion granted Dr. Mott, whose home is in New York City. The telegram, signed by Edouard deßilly, Deputy High Commissioner, was as follows: “‘I take pleasure in notifying you that the French government has conferred upon you the title of Chevalier de la Legion d’Honneur. Please accept my heartiest congratulations." The National War Work Council, ■under Dr. Mott’s supervision, in addi tion to its labors among the American Expeditionary Forces, has maintained more than 1,500 foyers du soldats, as the Red Triangle hats are known by the French poilu. Up to the month of October, 1918, close to eight mil lion dollars had been expended in “Y" •work among the French and other al lied soldiers served by the huts. LET’S FIX A DEFINITE DATE FOR DOING THESE JOBS. There are certain duties which all of us "intend to do sometime,” but too often keep putting off; and it often hap pens that a man lives out his life intending to do these things and yet “just never gets to them.” Below we print a list of twelve such jobs, and we should like for each reader to check over the list, see how many he lias already accomplished, and then fix a definite date for get ting to work on the.others. For the writer in his own experi- enoe has found —and wo suspect others have also—that the only job that gets done is the job you have fixed a definite; time for doing—never the one you just “intend to do some time.” Let's look over this list, there fore, check the items that have already had attention, and hold a family council to decide on definite dates for doing the oth ers : 1. Let’s get a will made —and remember the community in making it. 2. Let's take out some life in surance so that the wife and children may be protected in case the breadwinner of the family should die —considering also whether it may not be well to have the insurance money paid, at least in part, in month ly installments. 8. If not now taking out life insurance let’s have a physical examination now and once a year hereafter —so that any dis ease may Ik* detected and cured in the outset rather than al lowed to run on until too late. 4. Lot’s take the short course at the agricultural college — something no farmer is too old to do. 5. Let’s have a dentist put the teeth of the whole family in or der and have a competent phy sician examine each child for eye, nose and throat defects — because a great measure of ru ral ill health is due to neglect at these points. G. Let’s start a bank account —because it means safety, thrift, and anew sense of dig nity. 7. Let’s take out some fire in surance—because the average farmer is not able to rebuild a burned home without financial ly cramping himself for years, and insurance is just and equi table co-operation, while get ting subscriptions from neigh bors is not. 8. Let’s provide enough rain coats, overshoes, cloaks, and boots or leggins for every mem ber of the family—because they cost less than doctors’ bills and coffins. 9. Let’s start now to make wood and water just as convenient as possible for the good wife —providing a wood house to keep fuel dry, and if we can’t provide; water works, then at least a nearby well with covered walkway to it. 10. Get some pure-bred poul try now and resolve that every animal born on the farm hence forth shall have a pure-bred sire—because this increases pride and profits. 11. Build a good implement shed and provide sanitary and CALLED HER FAMILY TD HER BEDSIDE Six Tears Ago, Thinking She Might Die, Says Texas Lady, But Now She Is a Well, Strong Woman and Praises Cardoi For Her Recovery. Royse City, Tex.—Mr*. Mary Hu man, of this place, says; "After the birth of my little girl.. .my side com menced to hurt me. I had to go back to bed. We called the doctor. He treated me...but I got no better. I got worse and worse until the misery was unbearable ft. I was In bed for three months and suffered such agony that I was Just drawn up In a knot... I told my husband If he would get me a bottle of Cardul I would try 1t... I commenced taking It, however, that evening I called my family about me... for I knew I could not last many dan unless I had a change for 1 convenient privies—because ab sence of these advertises the farmer as careless of cash, health and civilization. 12. Let’s make friends with any neighbors with whom we have been at outs —submitting to arbitration rather than a lawsuit any matters about which we can't agree.—The Progressive Farmer.

It rends in part: “Do you believe In phrenol ogy'? Did you ever consult a phreno logical oracle? and did it answer, ‘My thou art invincible?’” Life Was a Misery Mrs. F. M. Jones, of Palmer, Okla., writes: "From the time I en tered into womanhood ... I looked with dread from one month to the next. I suffered with my back and bearing-down pain, until life to me was a misery, f would think I could not endure the pain any longer, and I gradually got worse. . . Nothing seemed to help me until, one day, . . . 1 decided to TAKE The Woman’s Tonic “I took four bottles,” Mrs. Jones goes on to say, ‘‘and was not only greatly relieved, but can truthfully say that I have not a pain. . . “ It has now been two years since 1 took Cardui, and I am still in good health. . . I would ad vise any woman or girl to use Cardui who is a sufferer from any female ; trouble.” If you suffer pain caused from womanly trouble, or if you feel the need of a good strengthening tonic to build up yourrun-down system, take the advice of Mrs. Jones. Try Car dui. It helped her. We believe it will help you. All Druggists 1.68 the better. That was six years ago and I am still here and am a well, strong woman, and I owe my life to Cardul. I had only taken half the bottle when I began to feel better. The misery In my side got less... 1 continued right on taking the Cardul until I had taken three bottles and I did not need any more for I was well and never felt better In my life... I have never had any trouble from that day to this.” Do you suffer from headache, back ache, pains In sides, or other discom forts, each month? Or do you feel weak, nervous and fagged-out?
