You can’t make a mistake in taking CARDUI The Woman’s Tonic Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark., says: “I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth, for women.

These were the words that \vere flashed to me, We’ve come very quickly if mother you’d see, But being already coming and home ward bound, I missed the message. I’d left my town. All the children gathered her for to see, But mother earnestly inquired about me— Now and then to know if Anderson IQfeßiiad come. She is sinking low, yes she’s almost gone. I reached her town feeling jolly and free, Thinking I’d a surprise have in store for she— Not knowing the message were sent me, you see. But this is the sight that beholden me —or greeted me— There hung crepe on the door, very sad sight for to see; Anil on entering inside ’twas brother meets me— A sight to behold, all crying and sad. But the message left me was as good as she had— Father in sobs tells her message to me, It’s not a message so flowery as some to see— But a message of destiny between God and between me; And has brightened a life and a soul it set free. This is the message that mother left me He good and meet me in heaven. I'm headed that way. Yes, I’m going that journey And over the foam I’ll whisper to mother Your message got home. —J. A. MAYO. The women of the an cient Greeks wore under their flowing draperies a garment which served the same purpose as the mod ern corset; it was absolute ly necessary in order that the outer robes should hang gracefully, and not in bunches. Kabo—The Live Model Corset—serves exactly the same purpose today, when so many fash ionable gowns depend for their beauty on soft flow ing lines and draped effedts. You needn't worry about your gowns if you wear the Kabo that is made for your figure. The Jackson Mercantile Cos., Local Agents. Mr. Nutt Winner in Spading Primary Mr. T. R.
