Thirty-two millions of dollars’ worth of income-bearing securities was the gift which John D. Rocke feller, through his son, John D.

The general education board appar ently was not prepared for tnis gut, w,hich was announced simply in the fallowing letter: “New r York, February 6, 1907. General Education Board, New York City. Gentlemen: My father author izes me to say' that on or before April 1, 1907, he will give to the general board income-bearing securities, the present market value of which is about $32,000,000, one-third to be add ed to the permanent endowment of the board; two-thirds to be applied t.o such specific objects within the cor porate purposes of the board, as either he or I may from time to time di rect, any remainder not so designated at the death of the survivor to be added also to the permanent endow ment of the board. Very truly, “JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER, JR.” Most of the members of the board were amajed at the size of the gift. The elder Rockefeller is not a member of the board, but his son is a member and the active direction doubtless will come from him. The board voted to accept the gift and in appreciation directed a letter to the elder Mr. Rockefeller, as fol lows : “The general education board ac knowledges the receipt of the com munication of February 6, 1907, from Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., a mem ber of this body, announcing your di rection to give to the board for the purpose of its organization security of the current value of $32,000,000. “The general education board ac cept this gift with a deep sense of gratitude to you and of responsi bility to society. The sum, added to the $11,000,000 which you have for merly given to this body, makes the general education board the guardian and administrator of a to tal trust fund of $43,000,000. “This is the largest sum ever given by a man in the history of the race for any social or philanthropic pur poses. The board congratulates you upon the high and wise impulse which has moved you to this deed, and de sires to thank you, in behalf of all educational interests, whose develop ments it will advance; in behalf of our country, whose civilization for all time it should be made to strengthen and elevate, and in behalf of mankind everywhere, in whose interests it has been given and for whose use it is dedicated.” The members of the board who w'iil administer Mr. Rockefeller s immense gift include some of the best known educational workers, financiers, pub licists and philanthropists in the coun try. £GAN IaKIS a NtW JO3.

O* “I Was Given Up” writes Mrs.[Eva Bashore, of Wapakoneta, 0., "by ten (10) doctors, and the only hope they offered was an operation, for an abscess of four (4) months growth, measuring about six Inches long, on my ovary. I weighed only 90 pounds and was so weak I could hardly walk across the floor. The trouble began by my taking cold at my period, which stopped the flow. I doctored for nearly a year without obtaining relief, until, as I dreaded an operation, I began to take “I only used eight (8) bottles of Cardul. Now lam well, have gained 35 pounds and work every day. Wine of Cardul saved my life. 1 cannot say enough for it and will recommend It whenever I can.” Nothing could be more certain than the fact that you need Cardul if you suffer from any of the disorders peculiar to the female sex. It is purely vegetable, strictly medicinal, harmless, non-intoxicating, and per fectly reliable. Cardul regulates irregular functions, relieves unnecessary female pain, restores strength and Invigorates the system. Over a i.iiWoQ woman have been tene. flted by Its use.
