NATURAL HEALTH
The Facts About an Interesting Case
Of Serious Fema’e Trouble Bene
fited By The Use of Cardui.
Walnut Cove, N. C. —Mrs. E. A.
Rothrock, of this town, says: “About
two years ago 1 wa3 in very bad health
for three or four months.
At this time I had a serious female
trouble, which lasted severely for nine
weeks. I got awfully weak and could
scarcely go, and my doctor said I
ought to be in bed.
My two sisters, who had used Cardui
with good results and who now use it
as a tonic, recommended it highly to
me, saying it is a fine medicine.
I felt if I lived I must have some
thing to help me, and as other medi
cines had failed to relieve me, I
thought I would try Cardui, the wom
an’s tonic. At this time I was almost
skin and bones.
I seemed to improve after the use
of the second bottle of Cardui. The
trouble stopped. I suffered less pain,
and began to get back my strength
and health. I took five more bottles
and got back my natural state of
health, also my flesh, and could do my
w'ork easily.
This spring I was run down in
health; had over-worked myself. I
took nearly three bottles of Cardui, as
a tonic, and it brought me back to my
natural state of health.
Last week I put up 78 jars of fruit,
which I could not have done before
taking Cardui. I am glad I heard of
it, and I hope other women will too.”
Your case may not be as bad as the
above, but even if only a mild case, we
suggest that you begin today to try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. —Adv.
Explanation to Her Guest-,
A little girl gave a children’s party
the other day to certain of her young
friends. She was very anxious that
everything should be done properly,
and just before the arrival of the
guests was discussing matters with
her mother.
“Mamma,” she asked, “shall we say
grace?”
“No,” said mamma; "it will be a
very informal dinner, and I think
you need not do that.”
That meant one. ceremony the less
to be gone through, and was a relief.
But the little lady was anxious to
have all her guests understand it.
So, as they gathered about the table,
she explained:
"Mamma says that this is such an
infernal dinner that we need not have
grace today!”
GIRLS! GIRLS! TRY IT,
BEAUTIFY YOUR HAIR
Make It Thick, Glossy, vVavy, Luxur
iant and Remove Dandruff—Real
Surprise for You.
Your hair becomes light, wavy, fluf
fy, abundant and appears as soft, lus
trous and beautiful as a young girl’s
after a “Danderine hair cleanse.” Just
try this—moisten a cloth with a little
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. This will cleanse
the hair of dust, dirt and excessive oil
and in just a few moments you have
doubled the beauty of your hair.
Besides beautifying the hair at once,
Danderine dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifies and invig
orates the scalp, forever stopping itch
ing and falling hair.
But what will please you most will
bo after a few weeks' use when you
will actually see new hair —fine and
downy at first —yes—but really new
hair —growing all over the scalp. If
you care for pretty, soft hair and lots,
of it, surely get a 25 cent bottle of
Knowlton’s Danderine from any store
and just try it. Adv.
Presence of Mind.
"What did you learn at the school?”
the boss asked the fair young appli
cant for the stenographer’s job.
“I learned,” she replied, “that spell
ing is essential to a stenographer.”
The boss chuckled.
“Good. Now let me hear you spell
essential.”
The fair girl hesitated for the frac
tion of a second.
“There are three ways,” she replied.
“Which do you prefer?”
And she got the job.

“That rich soap manufacturer has
Just bought a handsome automobile.”
“Ah—a soap ‘bubble.’ ”
Not Even Skin Deep.
Hokus —Yes, she’s pretty; but she
doesn't wear well.
Pokus —Rubs off, eh? —Judge.
The one man in the world who thoi
oughly believes in hero worship is the
hero.
The income tax doesn't bother the
man whose principal holdings consist
of castles in the air.
Many a fellow' is a good-hearted fool,
but the trouble is we don't do our
thinking with our hearts.
When a woman says she won’t, she
won’t; also very often when she says
she will.
Even the furrier is willing to admit
that beauty is only skin deep.

Lesson
(By E. O. KELLERS. Acting Director of
Sunday School Course, Moody Bible In
stitute, Chicago.)
LESSON FOR MARCH 14
SAUL GAINS HIS KINGDOM.
I.ESSON TEXT—I Samuel, chapter 11.
GOLDEN TEXT—He that is slow to an
ger is better than the mighty: and he
that ruletli his spirit, than he that taketh
a city.—Prov. 16:32.
In order to repay Israel's victory un
der Jepthah, Nahash the Ammonite de
manded the right eye of those besieged
in Jabesh in Gilead, knowing that, the
left, eye would be hid by their shields
and they would thus be incapable of
warfare. For Israel to make any cov
enant with the Ammonites was con
trary'to God's commands (Ex. 23:32;
Deut. 23:3).
I. The Cry of Jabesh, vv. 1-3. Thig
event probably occurred about a month
after the previous lessen. It w r as a
proud, haughty demand made of*these
Israelites. Exhausted and hopeless,
they had offered to become servants in
order to live. So today we frequent
ly find men willing to compromise
with the world and the devil, who only
hold them in derision and contempt
(v. 2). Compromising Christians are
always blind leaders of the blind (Matt.
15:14; 6:22). The demand of Nahash
would also bring reproach upon Israel,
yet this same king afterwards showed
kindness to David (II Samuel 10:2).
History record- that Emperor Basil
II actually sent an army of 14,850
sightless men back to the king of Bul
garia, who died of grief and horror.
11. The Conquest of Ammon, vv. 4-
11. Nahash granted the request for
a seven days’ respite Here was Saul's
opportunity—wrongs to be righted and
people to be saved. Saul had held his
peace since being anointed by Samuel,
employing his time in everyday toil
and duties (v. 5), for the messengers
did not find Saul at home idle. The
tidings of this insult were told to the
people who lifted up their voices and
wept. (v. 4). The news of this threat
ened calamity reached Saul's ears and
his conduct effectually put to silence
those “worthless fellows” who de
.spised him and had brought no pres
ents at his anointing (10:27). Instead
of tears Saul is moved to deeds. Like
Cincinnatus and Israel Putnam, he left
the plow to take up the sword. Saul
did not, in his own strength, under
take to relieve Jabesh, for “the Spirit
of God came upon him” (v. 6; see also
Judges 3:10; 11:29; 13:25; Luke 24:
49; Acts 10:36). This moved Saul to
anger, not alone at such an evidence
of cruelty, but more at the contempt
Nahash had for God and liis people.
Saul associated himself with Samuel,
the man of God, and summoned the na
tion of Israel to his side.
The Holy Spirit gave Saul clear as
surance of a call from God, and he re
sponded with unquestioned faith
(Rom. 8:31). The people responded
with great rapidity, for the fear of
God came upon them also. We have
the good news of a better deliverance
from a more subtle foe to proclaim
in the present age. They all resorted
to Bezek, w'est of the Jordan. The
messengers returned bearing a mes
sage having two meanings (v. 10), and
that helped to keep Nahash ignorant
of Saul’s actions on the other side of
the river. Dividing his army into com
panies Saul attacked the enemy “in
the morning watch,” and completely
overwhelmed them and put them to
rout. As the Ammonites had refused
to show' any mercy, they in turn wero
judged unworthy of mercy (v. 11, see
also James 2:13; Matt. 7:2).
111. The Crowning of Saul, vv. 12-15.
Saul s victory so impressed the people
that they demanded to know' of Sam
uel who it was that had refused him
as king, desiring to put them to death.
Saul showed his wisdom by not per
mitting such a course of action. Many
today refuse God’s divinely appointed
king \who will yet be glad to acknowl
edge nim (Luke 19:27; Phil. 2:10).
In the next place Saul did not claim
credit for the victory for, said he,
‘The Lord hath wrought deliverance
in Israel” (v. 13 R. V.). All real vic
tories come from God (Ps. 44:4-8; I
Cor. 15:10). This was the true king
ly spirit. Saul reaped the reward of
his humility, his forbearance, cour
age and activity in the loyalty and
pride of the people. Samuel gladly
shared in the success of Saul and led
the people to Gilgal for the crowning
ceremony. This was the place where
Israel had encamped under the
leadership of Joshua and where the
twelve stones from the river had been
set up as a testimony to God’s real
pesence and deliverance,
Saul had natural and physical char
acteristics calculated to make him a
great and useful king—self-restraint,
modesty, military invention and a ca
pacity for leadership.
He was shrewd, patient and gener
ous
He thus stood on the threshold of
his kingdom with the possibilities of
untold usefulness and blessing.
We are “kings and priests unto
God.” He has ushered us into his
kingdom Power, usefulness, influ
ence, helpfulness, victory ovc~ sin are
before us. "Napoleon said that hfs
nobility dated from Arcole and Maren
go. May ours date from the victories
of iove over the evil within us and in
the world.” “This is the victory that
overcometh the world, even our
faith” (I John 5:4).

Gray, Faded, Lifeless Hair.
Grandmother kept her hair beauti

with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on

ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. By asking at
any drug store for “Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy," you will get a
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use. for about 50 cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
-to- the hair and is splendid for dan

A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied—it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is re
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft, and abundant. Adv.
