BACKACHEAND
HEAVY FEELING
Weak, Nervous, Restless
Woman In Arkansas Hears
of Cardui, Tries It and Is
Greatly Benefited. Now
Recommends It To
Others
Peach Orchard, Ark.—Mrs. Nonie
High, who lives near here, states:
•‘Sometime ago I began to have trou
ble with my back. I would ache and
I could hardly get up when down. I
was so weak I would just drag
around and did not feel like doing
anything at all. I was so nervous
I felt I could scream, and . k . such
a heavy feeling I could not rest at
all. It looked like I was going to
get down in bed. ...
I heard of Cardui and thought I
would try it and see what it would
«lo for my case. After taking a few
bottles I grew stronger . . . The
bloated, heavy feeling left me. I 1
wasn’t so nervous, in fact, felt bet
ter all over. I took twelve bottles (
and certainly was greatly benefited ;
and can recommend it to any one as
a tonic or builder. I often tell oth- ,
ers how it helped and strengthened i
•> 1
me.
Cardui is a mild vegetable tonic,
with no bad after-effects. Its ingre- j
dients act in a helping, building way, 1
on the womanly constitution.
Ask your druggist. He knows ]
about Cardui. Some druggists have :
sold It for forty years.—(Advt.)

DOROTHY DIX’S TALKS
Husband Testing
BY DOROTHY DIX
The Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World
A YOUNG woman writes:
“Can you tell me any way
by which a girl can tell what
sort of a husband a man will make?
It is not enough to know that a
man is moral, and upright, and in
dustrious, for I have observed that
many men who are models of all
the virtues as men, are also hor
rible warnings against what a hus
band should be.
“Nor is it enough for a man to
be charming, and companionable, and
generous, for I have seen many a
man who was a fascinator before
marriage turn into a dummy after
marriage, and more than one of my
friends is pinching and economizing
to pay for the presents her husband
lavished on her when he was court
ing her.
“It’s no particular trick to judge
men, but how can a girl tell what
kind of a husband a man will make?’’
She can’t. There is no acid test
that is infallible that you can apply
to a man, and see what sort of hus
band material he is, for there are
good men who are bad husbands,
and bad men who are good husbands,
and how a man will react to matri
mony is one of the mysteries that
nobody can solve.
Granting, however, that girl has
let her fancy fall upon one who is
a gentleman and a regular fellow,
there are several small tests that
she may use which will go a long
ways towards giving her his number
as a husband.
First, let her observe his attitude
towards and those under him. Let
her take note of whether he is
genial, and kindly, and human to
wards waiters, and taxicab drivers,
and street car conductors, and the
others that serve him, or whether
he is arrogant, and insolent, and
overbearing with them. Nothing will
give her a better idea of how he
will treat his wife.
A sweetheart may be a goddess
on a pedestal and worshipped as
such, but the minute she becomes
a man’s wife she climbs down and
off and becomes his dependent. She
is in his grip. He can treat her
pretty much as he pleases. His at
titude towards her makes her hap
piness or her misery, and if she
wants to know whether he will be
kind to her, and tender, and con
siderate she can find out by see
ing how he treats others who are
in his power.
No man can have a finer testi
monial to his character than to be
adored by chambermaids, and be a
hero to his office boy, and to have
those who serve him do it with a
smile. Nor is there any condemna
tion of a man more sweeping than
tor him to be hated and feared by
his employes.
Second, observe your man closely
when he takes you out to a restau
rant. Marry no man who does not
like to eat because the cooking
stove is a wife’s best friend, and
she can conjure more with a good
dinner than she can with all the
arts of all the sirens, but there is
a difference between the man who
enjoys his food, and the man who
is pernlckity about it.
If he eats what is set before him
with relish, and asks no questions,
you will have a husband who will
be comfortable, and reasonable, and
easy to get along with, but if he
has to have just some one particular
tabla where the light is just so,
and there are no draughts, and if
he fusses over the menu, and tells
the waiter exactly how he wants
everything cooked, and if he gets
into a temper if the service isn’t
perfect, and his evening is spoiled
if there is a grain too much or
too little of seasoning in his sauce,
consider well before you marry him.

He ■will make the sort of a husband
who is always batting his wife’s
housekeeping, and. wondering why
she never learns to cook, and who
snoops around the ice box, and cen
sors the garbage can, and life with
him will be domestic slavery.
Thirdly, observe the man’s gen
eral outlook on life. Take note of
whether he thinks this is a pretty
good old world, all things consid
ered, and whether he is inclined to
believe the best of his fellow crea
tures, and to think that everything
is bound to turn out pretty well in
the end, or whether he is gloomy
and grouchy and pessimistic, and
believes that all men and all wom
en are liars and deceivers and is
generally disgruntled with life.
Whether married life seems long
or not depends upon whether you
get an optimist or a pessimist for
a husband. For when a woman has
ceased to be an angel to a man and
becomes just another human being
he treats her as he does the bal
ance of the world, and he smiles
upon her, or frowns on her, he jol
lies her along, or knocks her just
as he does others.
In the fourth place observe a
man’s feeling towards his own pos
sessions. There are men who are
disillusioned of a thing the minute
they get it, and who are never sat
isfied with anything they have. They
are eternally allured by the other
man’s horse or house or automobile
and see nothing but faults with their
own.
There are other men, of a com
placent nature, who find that their
own mere possession of a thing en
hances it with mystical qualities
cf perfection. Everything they have
is flawless. By some chance they
get the best automobile of that par
ticular make that was ever turned
out of the shpp. Their house is a
marvel of the builder’s art. Their
dog has supernatural wisdom.
Marry a man who is discontented
with his belongings and he will be
a fault-finding husband, who will
always be wandering around looking
with covetous eyes at other men’s
WIV6B. . T, T.l-
But marry the man who likes Til's
own things, and you shall have a
faithful husband who will always
admire you, and brag about you to
others, for the very fact that you
are his wife clothes you with every
virtue and grace.
Oh! there are many ways in which
a girl can size a man up if she will
only look at the things he does, in
stead of listening to the things he
says.

Steer Feeding Shows Good
Results on Government Farm
In a steer-feeding experiment con
ducted last year on the govern
ment farm at Beltsville, Md., four
lots of 2-year-old steers were fed.
The purpose was to compare cot
tonseed meal and soaked velvet
beans when used with and without
the addition of shelled corn.
The addition of corn to a ration
composed of corn silage, cottonseed
meal, and wheat straw did not pay.
The addition of corn to the ration
of velvet beans and corn silage was
profitable.
The lot deceiving corn stlage and
soaked velvet beans with a small
quantity of cottonseed meal as an
appetizer produced the most econom
ical gains and showed the greatest
profit, even though the daily gains
and the selling price of the cattle
were lower than those of any of the
other lots.

LETTER B>OX
My Dear Children: I will make this only a greeting this time,
as we are to have another Honor Roll in the next issue. In that
way you will have more room for your letters. Please remember
the rules and don’t get hurt when your letters are not published
when you break these rules. Lovingly, AUNT JULIA.
Thank you so much, Virgie Haile, for the sweet picture. It
came when I was sick and certainly did much to cheer me.
Dear Aunt Julia: Will you admit an
Alabama girl into your baud of boys and
girls? I think Aunt Julia is a dear lady
to adopt a French lassie. If it was left to
me, I would adopt one myself, as I haven’t
any sisters. You can imagine how I am
petted. I will describe myself and go. I
am a dark blonde, light brown eyes, fair
complexion, five feet six inches tall, weigh
120 pounds, and 15 years old, and would
be glad to get a shower of letters and
cards April 2, as it is my birthday, and
any other time. So let them roll to a jolly
and lonely Alabama girl. LILLIE BOYD.
Northport, Ala.
P. S.—Aunt Julia, please print this, as
it is my first. Find my bit for the lassie.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Here
comes a South Carolina gin to join your
happy band of boys and girls. I live on a
farm and like farm life fine. I know all
of you cousins wonder how I look, so here
I go: Dark hair and eyes, fair complexion,
weight, 138 pounds; 5 feet 4 inches. Now
did any of you faint? I will tell my age,
18 years young. I wish some of you cous
ins were here to go to parties with me; I
know we would have a dandy time. If any
of you cousins have the Shamrock center
piece, will you send me a sample? I will
appreciate it so much, as this is my first
time writing. I hope to sse it in print. All
of you good looking “kids” write to me,
I will answer all I receive. Your new
cousin, MABEL WILKS.
Leeds, S. C.
P. S—Am sending 8c for the little French
baby.—M. W.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
please admit a little Virginia girl in your
merry circle of boys and girls? I will de
scribe myself if the cousins won’t laugh too
much: Brown eyes, black hair, fair com
plexion, 5 feet 4 inches, weigh 115, age 15.
id anybody faint? I hope not. I think aunt
Julia is wonderfully wise to adopt the little
French orphan. It’s nice of the cousins
to help take care of Yvonne. I’m willing
to do my part. Why don’t more of the
Virginia boys and girls write? ? Let’s
don’t let the other states get ahead of us.
How many of the cousins had a good time
Christmas? I did, for one. I guess I had
better be going, for I hear Mr. Wastebasket
coming. How many of you cousins will
write me? A good many, I hope. I will an
swer all letters and cards I receive. Your
new niece and cousin, with lots of love to
all. EDNA BOWMAN.
Willis, Va., Rt. 5, Box 62.
P. S.—l inclose 10 cents for Yvonne.

write a short note to the Letter Box. * I
wiUE describe myself for you all: I am 13
years of age, weigh 97 pounds, medium
complexion, the color of my hair is me
dium brown. I wonder what you cousins

cards received. ANNIE COXWELL.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Please
move ever and give room for another Geor
gia boy. I have been a silent reader of the
Letter Box for quite a while. How are
you cousins enjoying this rainy weather?
I live on a farm and like farm life fine.
I will describe myself and go: Fair com
plexion. blue eyes, brown hair, 5 feet
7 inches tall, weight about 135, age 16.
Some of von cousins write to me. I will

and black and red (read) all over. Your
new cousin, EARL CAYLOR.

P. S.—Find inclosed 10 cents for the
French baby. Will answer all cards and
letters received.
Dear Aunt Julia and cousins: It has
been some time since I wrote you in favor
of adopting an American child. It is still
my desire to adopt one of our own little
children. I feel that It would be a great
blessing to us to send love and sunshine
to one of our American children, and I
am so glad that we can love and care for
dear little Yvonne. Also I wrote some
time ago and received a lot of nice let
ters from you dear cousins and also a lot
of nice Xmas presents, which I sure did
appreciate. I won’t describe myself only
say I will be 17 years old the 16th of
February and I am going to school. Will
answer all letters and exchange pictures.
THE COUNTRY HOME
CONDUCTED BY MRS.W.H.FELTON
The Equinox
Twice a year the sun, In Its course
through the ecliptic, comes to the
equinoctial line —then the days and
nights are equal. This occurs on
the 21st of March and the 21st of
September. These are called the
vertical and autumnal equinoxes.
As a rule we have exceedingly
variable weather conditions at these
annual periods.
Last night, September 16th, I was
wakened from profound sleep by a
thunder storm. The lightning flash
ed and the thunder rolled. The cock
struck , one, when the storm seemed
to be abating. Before the clock
struck two, the, lightning began to
flash again and the thunder begun
to roll again—with spasmodic gusts
of rain—all the time. Again there
v. as slackness —'but before the clock
struck three, the elements were per
forming with renewed force and
energy. I said to myself—we are in
the equinoctial season. Heaven pity
the poor sailors on stormy coasts or
in mid-ocean.
I expect to hear, when the mail
comes in that cyclones are abroad
in the land. So it generally hap
pens. These atmospheric conditions
are well understood by scientists
and astronomers. But like the
workings df the wireless—l know
very little about the why or the
wherefore. We are told that the
moon has astonishing influence on
the tides of the ocean. If the moon
can do so much —we need not be
astonished to hear that old Sol can
perform a stunt twice a year—and
make everybody wake up and take
notice as I was wakened last night.
When Old Sol equalizes the days and
the nights there is something do
ing! We are very often discrimi
nated against by our so-called tax
equalizers. But Old King Sol spreads
his power and his glory all over
creation and makes the grass to
grow, and also the corn —and thus
feeds the world.
So when (the time comes for spring
—the giant Orb of day says—“Be
equal, ye days and nights”—and
forthwith the winds and the clouds
get busy and all obey his will.

CORA PREVATT.
Old Hundred, N. C. R. F. D. 1.
Good evening Aunt Julia and Cousins:
I am knocking at your door to be admitted
again this cold afternoon.
What are you cousins talking about?
Are you undecided what to do about
adopting another orphan? I am in favor
of sending some poor little American child
to school. How many of you agree with
me?
What are you all doing for pastime
these rainy days when you can’t go to
school?
I read, crochet, tat, embroider and
most anything. Would be glad to exchange
some samples with some of you girls.
I’m an old cousin and won’t describe
myself this time because it is much to
cold for you all to be running, you might
catch cold.
Well, I will have to go now. All you
cousins write to me and I will try to an

I saw Aunt Julia printed my other letter,
thought I would visit you all again. And,
say, Anntie, I thank you very much for
printing my other letter. Cousins, I have
been going to school and have a fine
school. Oh, it won’t be long till spring,
apd I certainly will be glad so I can get
out and plant flowers, as I am a lover of
flowers. You cousins, say. what do you
do for pastime? I read novels and cro
chet, too. Auntie, I didn’t help the little
French girlie any the other time I visited
you all, but am sending her a handker
chief this time. Well, Cousins, I won’t
describe myself this time, as I did the

Modoc, S. C.
ported as saying concerning the
people in war-stricken countries,
across the sea. We have been send
ing twelve and a half millions over
to Belgium—once a month —every
month for several years. It is hu
man nature—to get something for
nothing. Therefore it was easy
enough to go to the distributing
places and get American rations —
full and free and without price. But
it grew monstrous after the war was
over and it is set down in print that
Mr. Hoover delivered his mind of
something that was burdensome and
when it was out of his system it
read this way: “Stop begging and
go to work!”
The people of the United States
are generous to a fault when appeals
from the suffering are heard, and
poverty is abroad in other lands, but
there comes a time when work
should have itfe advocates—and the
people who wont work should feel
the pinch of starvation.
Many years ago there was a dis
tinguished company of savants on
board an ocean liner—going home to
the Orient—after seeing the world’s
fair, and touring the United States
for a number of months. A distin
guished Georgian was going to Eu
rope on the same boat, and discuss
ed foreign missions with these well
educated Orientals—as the great lin
er made its way on the waves of the
Atlantic toward Liverpool.
They said, “We can tell you the
how and the wherefore. We saw
your soup houses in Chicago, and
thousands of your people stood in
line, and were fed by charity last
winter. They could decline to work
and did, but they always were on
hand to get a bowl of soup. In our
countries your people are very gen
erous. You give lots of things that
our folks are willing to accept with
out work. When your people retire,
they go back to our ways and gen
erally are obliged to go to work.”
My wise Georgia friend said to me,
“If you indulged in a pipe, like many
of our foremothers were in the habit
of doing in ye olden time, I’d say
put that in your mouth and smoke
it!” Do you see the point?
Cabbage as a Life Saver
Orange juice has always been con
sidered the foremost anti-scorbutic
food. But how delightful it sounds
when “The Journal of Home Eco
nomics” tells us that raw cabbage is
a dangerous rival! Os course, cab
bage is no food for the infant or in
valid, but its general use in the
menu should be extended. The great
point is that it must be left raw;
cooking diminishes its special dietet
ic value over 70 per cent. So spare
yourself the labor involved in ruin
ing it, as well as the unpleasant odor
•from cooking, and find out its de
lights and special benefits by eating
it raw in some of the following com
binations, or simply shredded, with
a French or Russian dressing:
Chicken Cabbage Salad
To three cupfuls of finely shredded
white cabbage add one-half cupful of
white chicken meat cut in long, nar
row strips, one-half cupful of cold
boiled ham, one-fourth cupful of pi
mentos cut likewise. Moisten with
mayonnaise or boiled salad dressing
and pile lightly on hearts of lettuce,
and garnish with pimentos. This,
with toasted cheese sandwiches, is
all that could be desired both in
nourishment and the pleasure of eat
ing.
MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
My dear Miss Mary Meredith —
This is my first time to write to you.
I want your advice. I am sixteen
years old and have light brown hair
and blue eyes and fair skin. Do.
you think I am pretty? I am going
with a boy, he has blue eyes and
brown hair, he is good looking. I
love him very much, but my par
ents wonlt let me have any com
pany. I can’t ask other boys and
girls to come to see me because my
mother and father object. Put my
initial on my letter so I will know
it when I get the Journal. W. G. D.
W. G. D. —I i-eally think you
should have a few boy friends.
And I can’t see why your father
and mother object. It would be
so nice if they would allow
boys to come to see you at your
home, and meet and know them
on a friendly basis. Why don’t
you show this letter to your
mother. I wouldn’t deceive
her. If you ask her in the
right way I’m sure she will per
mit you to have company. Par
ents are often the cause of early
and unhappy marriages of
their children—because of the
lack of understanding— a girl’s
home should be the place for the
company she wishes to see.
And it’s the mother’s place to
see that she gets the proper
treatment.
I am a girl of 22 years, have blue
eyes, black hair and dark complex
ion, five feet nine inches, weight 130
pounds. Am in love with a boy of
15 summers, and think he loves me,
but he never says anything about
marrying. Do you think It would be
all right for me to propose, as I am
the oldest? And is it correct for a
girl to go out riding with a boy at
night? Do you think it proper for
me to let a boy kiss me goodnight at
the door of my home or any place?
Please tell me what to do about this
boy, as I am very fond of another
boy nearer my age, but don’t see
much chance for me, as there is an
other girl before me.
FOOLISH PEGGY.
A boy of sixteen is entirely too
young for a girl of twenty-two.
And too young to marry any one.
And it would be exceedingly fool
ish for you to propose to him—
even if he would marry you. He
is too young to be harnessed
down to a wife to be taken care
of. When a man loves a woman
and wants to marry her, he will
lose no time proposing to her.
It is always wise to have a *
chaperon to accompany you on
your drives at night. A girl
can’t be too particular. Kissing
is not only harmful and degrad
ing—but it is insanitary. A girl
doesn’t have to kiss her boy
friends when they call to see
her. You still have plenty of
time to marry—so don’t worry.
Dear Miss Meredith: We are two
lonely sisters at home, coming to you
for advice. I, Violet, am 21 years
old, weigh 125 pounds, dark-blue
eyes, blond hair, fair complexion. I
am going with a boy 21 years old. I
have been going with him three
years. He don’t go with any other
girl but me. He is a nice boy. Every
body thinks well of him, and my par
ents have no objections to my going
with him. I am with him every
Sunday. He always treats me nice
ly. Do you think he cares for me?
Or, is he just going with me to pass
away the time? Is it all right for
me to go car riding with him on
gunday afternoon? Would it be any
Irarm for me to have my picture
made with hiip? I, Pansy, ana 19
years old,- w«igh 115 s pounds, brown
hair, brown eyes, fair complexion. I
am going with a boy 21 years aid. I
have been going with him about one
year. Is it all right for me to go
with him to sing at night if my older
sister and her beau is with us?
Would it be all right for us to sit
on the porch on moonlight nights?
How late should a boy stay when he
calls at night? Would it be all right
for us to spend the night at our
married sister’s home and write our
beaus to call on us? Thank you for
your advice. VIOLET AND PANSY.
I think the young man likes
you very much. He proves It by
coming to see you so often, and
by not calling on any other girl.
There isn’t any harm in your go
ing car riding with him on Sun
days. No harm in having a post
card picture made with him.
Pansy. There is nothing im
proper in your accompanying
the young man to singing class
at night, and it is all right for
you to sit on the porch on moon
light nights—if you don’t sit
too long. And it is proper to ask
your friends to call to see you,
in your married sister’s home.
I am a lonely girl, age seventeen,
coming to you for advice. My mother
died when I was fourteen years old,
and I am staying with my grandpa,
and I want you to advise me what
to do. I am going with two boys.
One of them is a farmer and the
other is a cotton miller, and I love
the farmer better than the other
one. The farmer boy says he loves
me and wants me to marry him,
and it seems that I can’t be happy
without him. Please advise me what
to do. I thank you for your advice,
as I have no mother to advise me.
BLUE EYES.
ANSWER.—I think if the far
mer boy is worthy in every way
of your- love and you love him,
J don’t see any reason why you
shouldn’t marry him. It is true
you are very young, but you may
be best off married. As long as
you haven’t a mother to guide
you.
I am coming to you for advice. I
am a girl aged eighteen. Am I old
enough to marry? I am going with
a boy aged twenty-four, and I love
him dearly and he says he loves me.

TUESDAY, MARCH 23, 1920.
He has asked me to marry him.
Should I marry him or wait until I
get older. Will thank you for ad
vice. Hope to see this in print.
H. F. L.
ANSWER. —Os course, my ad
vice to you would be to have
you wait until you are older.
So often girls marry very young
and regret it after they become
older. We would scarcely choose
at thirty the same man we fan
cied at eighteen. That is why so
many people are unhappy who
marry so young. Lots of times
“circumstances alter cases, and
it is often the best thing for a
girl to do —marry early. But
then again, as a general rule, it
is best for boys and girls to wait
a while. Marriage means set
tling down, and many privileges
are r denied one after they are
married.
Dear Miss Mary: lam a girl of
nineteen summers coming to you for
advice. I am five feet eight inches
tall and am rather stout. I am con
sidered good looking. Why is it the
boys don’t Hike stout people? I go
to and have a good time with
the boys and several times they
come with me. I love one boy dear
ly and he’s been with me once or
twice. He is very friendly around
me and once he told me he loved me.
What can I do to win him back?
Why is it they don’t like me? I
grieve lots of times because I’m
stout and the boys won’t go with me.
Please tell ,ne what to do and how
to win them ?
Yours truly,
LONELY BROWN EYES.
Now if you were short and
stout I might see why the boys
wouldn’t like j r ou. Don’t let your
super-abundance of flesh worry
you, for I know some very large
women who have very happily
married. Be jolly, affable and
unselfish. Give the best that’s
in you to people, and I’m sure
you will have equal returns. A
desire to please and making your
self gracious with out being
familiar, will win you friends.
And don’t tattle—keep other peo
ple’s affairs to yourself. For
get that you are stout and look
to your diet more. Perhaps you
eat too many starchy foods and
don’t take much exercise. Try
walking.
Dear Miss Meredith:
Here comes a North Carolina girl
to you for advice. Please answer the
following questions through the At
lanta Seml-Weekly Journal:
I.—When at a party, playing tap
ring, and catch up in the ring be
side a strange boy, which should be
first to start a conversation?
2—When at a party or any gath
ering and see a boy whom I have met
about a year ago, and he wouldn t
know me when seeing me unexpect
ed, and if I knew him, would it be all
right for me to speak first and make
myself known?
3.—Can any one take a business
course during the summer at any
of the business colleges?
Very truly yours,
A. B.
When the guests arrive at the
party, of course, they are intro
duced by hostess or should be.
And she is responsible for the
character of the guests she has
invited to her home. Conse
quently she wouldn’t introduce
you to any one whom she
thought would embarrass you.
So it is a small matter which one
starts a conversation first—
either boy or girl. Often at par
s „ rtew a *oy wlMwee ax gb-1 whiMm ,
~ he admires and he is likely to
find away to open conversation
with her. It is perfectly proper
to make yourself known to a boy
you have met before, and you are
positive he can’t recall having
met you. Yes, you can take a
summer course at most any re
liable business college. They
are open all year round.
