VALUE OP IfJUCATION
t i JnAt a college education is the
jkabjravestment a young farmer
is shown Iw investiga
tion in various agricultural re
gions of the United Slates. Statis
tics gathered ou this subject show
that the college graduate makes
more money on the farm than the
tpitraiucd limn. The high school
graduate also has, a li gh monetary
rating, but not near y so high as.i
the college man.
The report shows that of ten- j
ant farmers
and lowa, it is shewn that tin
labor income of the man with a
high school edueatiin averages !
s.>-(> more than Uuij of the man
with only a common school odn- j

would receive the inspiration to
Mltfsh high school >nd go on t-i
sudlege. if we had i modern com

The right kind - f educational
system, depends iq >n the peop'e
is the rural distrie s. When they
atiow their earnest; ess to have
the very best in soh ml equipment

Alabama Lady Was Sick For Three

Own Story of Recovery.
Paint Rock. Ala.—Mrs. C. M. Stegall,
of near here, recently related the fol
lowing Interesting account of her re
covery: “I was in a weakened con
dition. I was sick three years In bed,
suffering a great deal of pain, weak,
nervous, depressed. I was so weak,
I couldn’t walk across the floor; Just
bad to lay and my little ones do the
work. I was almost dead. I tried
every thing I heard of, and a number ol
doctors. Still I didn’t get any reljef.
I couldn’t eat. and slept poorly. I
believe if I hadn’t heard of and taken
Cardul I would have died. I bought
six bottles, after a neighbor told me
what It did for her.
"I began to eat and sleep, began to
gain my strength and am now well
and strong. I haven't had any trou
ble since ... I sure can testify to ths
good that Cardul did me. I don't
think there Is a better tonic made
and I believe it saved my life."
For over 40 years, thousands of wo
men have used Cardul successfully,
In the treatment of many womanly
