BACKACHE AND
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 . . . 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
do for my case. After taking a few
bottles I grew stronger . . . The
bloated, heavy feeling left me. I
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
me.”
Cardui is a mild vegetable tonic,
with no bad after-effects. Its ingre
dients act in a helping, building way,
on the womanly constitution.
Ask your druggist. He knows
about Cardui. Some druggists have
sold it for forty years.—(Advt.)

DOROTHY DIX’S TALKS
Don’t Be a Discourager
BY DOROTHY DIX
The Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World
A RE you a wet blanket?
Are you one of those who
x feel it to be your sacred duty
to chill hope, and take the pep out
of enthusiasm?
When anyone broaches a plan to
you do you pick it to pieces, and
knock it down, and trample on it
until it lies a little pile of broken
rubbish at your feet?
If anyone suggests going anywhere
to you, do you raise so many objec
tions that you take all the pleasure
out of it before you even start?
-f you are a discourager, stop be
ing one. You are killing the joy
of life for those about you. You
are slaying the divine thi”~ in them
that makes them able to achieve,
and you are worse than the murderer
who merely takes a man’s life.
The measure of what we can do
is just what we think we can do.
Our faith in ourselves sets our
limit. We cannot go one inch be
yond that, and so when you destroy
our self-confidence, and make us dis
trustful of our ability, you wish fail
ure upon us.
We must sow in hope, if we reap
success. It is only by keeping the
goal constantly before our eyes, and
believing with all our hearts that we
have the strength to reach it, that
giVes us the courage to sruggle and
fight on. Dim that hope, weaken
that faith and we give up, and sit
down, and fold our hands, and say,
what’s the use.
The world is full of failures wfto
would have been successes if they
had not had the misfortune of hav
ing a discourager in the family.
Sometimes the wet blanket is a wife
who ice water down her hus
band’s back until he gets such cold
feet he is afraid to move an inch
out of the rut into which he has
gotten, no matter how clearly he
sees fortune beckoning him down a
new road.
The man has ability. He has vi
sion. He is optimistic. and wants to
build for the future. He comes hom>
full of some plan for enlarging his
business, or striking out in a new
direction, or keen to take some offer
he has had to go to another country
or city. He knows he can succeed
because he feels within himself the
power to do f’-e thing he is planning
to do.
But wife fishes out the cold douche. •
and anplies it so effectually that she !
brings his temperature down from i
fever heat to’ sub-normal before he I
is half through explaining his plan.
She warns him against taking risk”,
an' to let well enough alone. She
cites all the cases she has ever known
of people who lost their all through
some new venture. She prophesies
every form of dark disaster, and
w. rns him that he is not so young ]
as he used to be, and that his health |
might fail, and that they might come |
to want in their old age and so dis- i
mai and disheartening is the vision
that she paints that the man finds ,
his own enthusiasm petering out, and I
his belief in himself dying, and he I
gives the project up.
A great many wives take credit to
themselves for being brakes upon i
their husbands’ enthusiasms, and say
that they are always holding John
or Henry back from going into some
new thing. Little do they know how
often they keep their husbands from
great achievements, and cut them
selves out of the fortune and the
fame they might have had.
"I used to tell my wife all of my
plans and talk over things with her
until I found out that she wet
blanketed every scheme I presented
to her,” said a successful man. “Now
I never tell her anything about what
I’m going to do until after the thing
is accomplished, because I haven’t
got the time, or strength’, to fight
her objections. Nor can I afford to
have the fine flower of my belief in

my ability to put the thing through,
blighted. Without that I cannot suc-
i l *- cl. I need somebody to tell me
that I can do it, not somebody to
croak failure in my ears, and my
wife is the greatest little discourag
er that ever came down the pike. ’
How often the genius of children
is nipped in the bud by their par
ents throwing a wet blanket over all
their aspirations we never can know,
but there are millions and millions
of men and women who might have
achieved something worth while if
their fathers and mothers had not
killed their faith in themselves in
their early youth.
There are many parents who think
that it makes for righteousness to
make a child humble and self dis
trustful. Therefore they are eter
nally calling Bobby’s and Sally’s at
tention to their faults, and dispar
aging their virtues, and making
small of everything that they do.
Johnny says he wants to be a law
y r when he grows up and Johnny’s
ambition becomes the chief family
jest. They call him “Judge,” they
ridicule the idea of a poor boy with
no money, or influence, or any par
ticular advantage of education ever
becoming anything but a day laborer
They laugh at his attempts at ora
tory and his use of big words, and
his fondness for study, and at last
Johnny is -wet-blanket 1 out of his
ambition and does become the day
laborer that his family forced him
into becoming. Yet many a man
with a family to boost up his cour
age and hold up his hands has risen
from humbler beginnings than John
ny’s to a seat in the supreme court.
Bad as it is to discourage a grown
person, it is an unforgivable crime
to discourage a child, for you know
not what a future you may be blight
ing, what success you may be shat
tering.
Never kill the hope and enthu
siasm in a child's soul. You may be
like Nance Oldfield who, when she
had disillusior ed the young boy who
wanted to marry her, said: ‘God for
give me. I have put out the light
on an alter.’

Decay of the Teeth
Decay of the teeth also spoken of
as “dental caries,” i s caused by the
action of germs or bacteria which
lodge upon the less exposed parts
of a tooth. As a result of their
growth the tooth structure of their
ened, allowing the succeeding gen
erations of bacteria to penetrate
further into the tissues of the tooth.
It will be noticed that decay
usually begins either in the little
grooves upon the surface used in
chewing, but which because of their
depth are not well scoured by the
food in chewing, or else at the point
where one tooth adjoins another.
This point also fails to receive the
scouring which the more exposed
parts of a tooth receives.
Now as the thickness of the en
amel is the same upon the side of
the tooth toward the tongue or lip
and upon the side toward the ad
joining teeth, and as its quality is
also the same, we may safely con
clude that if the surfaces toward
adjoining teeth could be kept as
’ clean and well polished as are those
more exposed, they, too, would be
practically free from decajr. This
is well assured, as bacteria will not
grow upon a polished surface.
In some of the ancient skulls ex
amined, it was found that the sur
faces which make contact with
other teeth in the same jaw were
highly polished by the slight indi
vidual motion of each tooth in Its
socket as hard pressure was
brought to bear upon it and it was
thus rubbed against its neighbor.
AUNT JULIA’S
LETTER BOX
My Dear Children: It is almost time to open your Jonquil
letter and I’m wondering just how many of you were interested
enough to write me about these beautiful flowers The hard rains
have beaten uors pretty much to pieces, yet their golden glow makes
the darkest days seem bright. We who have the pleasure of living
out in the open country should make the most of our opportunities
to study nature, and I’m hoping to have many interesting letters
on our first flower subject. Lovingly, ' AUNT JULIA.
Dear Aunt Julia: I will not portray my
self as a very lonely sailor, for I’m not quite
as bad as that, but I would like very much
if you would add my name to your list of
lonely sailors, so that I might hear from
some of the wonderful little women who
seem to take advantage or. rather, give us
the advantage of your Letter Box. There
is a young man here who has benefited by
your kindness, and it was from him that I
got your address. Just a bit of information
about mvself will take but a few lines and
might be of use: I’m from Texas (Fort
Worth). I am nineteen years old, 5 feet 10
inches high, and not the least bit like Wal
lace Reid. I would take the “booby prize
at a beauty contest, but not such a bad sort
in other ways. I’m sorry I like myself so
well. Thank you. Aunt Julia, and if I hear
from some nice “Georgia lassie” I 11 thank
you again. Sincerely,

I will close with lots of love to Aunt Julia

CORN MEAL IS FOUNDATION
OF MANY TASTY DISHES
Corn Meal
Although corn meal is now used
chiefly as a breakfast cereal or in
the form of bread, yet there are
many other ways of using it to ad
vantage. The particles of corn meal
when mixed with water do not tend
to stick together and form an elas
tic dough as wheat flour does. This
is because the protein of corn is lack
ing in tenacity allowing the some
what granular particles of meal to
separate. While this is a disadvan
tage for some uses, like bread mak
ing, it is an advantage in making
waffles or griddle cakes, as it ren
ders them very tender. Some recipes
for the use of corn meal recommend
ed by the home-economics kitchen
of the United States department of
agriculture follow:
Corn Meal and Wheat Waffles
iy g cups water.
M cup white corn meal.
1% cups milk.
3 cups wheat flour.
3 tablespoons sugar.
1% teaspoons salt.
Yolks 2 eggs.
Whites 2 eggs.
2 tablespoons melted butter.
Cook the meal in boiling water 20
ninutes; add milk, dry ingredients
nixed and sifted, yolks of eggs well
beaten, butter, and whites of eggs
beaten stiff. Cook on greased waf
fle iron. These waffles are consider
ed by most people better than those
made with wheat flour only.
This serves six people.
Corn-Meal Puffs.
1 pint milk.
Vs cup corn meal.
4 tablespoons sugar.
Ya teaspoon salt.
4 eggs.
Grated nutmeg (if desired).
Cook the milk and meal together
15 minutes with the salt and sugar.

Hello Cousins: What are you all doing
tonight? It is raining here and I have the
blues just a wee bit, but that is because It
is so rainy and dismal. How many are go
ing to school? I think it so nice to go to
school and strive for an education. I was
promoted to the eighth grade this year. I
took up Latin. I sure do like it, there are
just two words I’m interested in, they are
“nauta” and “amo," some of you sailors
may know them at first sight. lam unlike
most all other cousins . I do not prefer! de
scriptions although my age is between fif
teen and nineteen. Some of you cousins
visit me this summer. I live very near two
beautiful springs that are very nice for all
kinds of sports. I would like very much for
some girl friend to come and bring their
good-looking “buds” along. I had better
make my letter short; all you cousins write
me. I ilo so much enjoy corresponding, es
pecially with soldiers and sailors who have
been to France and had such great experi
ences, Just let your letters and cards fly to

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Dear Madam: 1 am coming to
you for advice. What should I do
to make my husband love me. We
have been married seven years. He
doesn’t seem to care for me at all.
He will go off and stay a week at
a time and won’t say anything to
me about it. He has been married
before. ' His first wife is dead. It
seems as if he is not pleased with me.
I love him dearly and do everything
to please him and make him love
me, but it is all in vain. I stay at
home by myself all night when he
is gone. I feed the horses and hogs
and cows, get the wood and make
the fire in the morning, do all of
my cooking and washing. I have
one little boy five years old, and he
is just as cute as he can be. We
live on a farm out in the country,
but my husband seems to like town
life. I have tried to get him to
move to town, but he won’t let me
go, but will go and stay himself.
Please give me. all the advice you
can?
BLUE EYES.
there are many wives placed
i the same situation as you and
hey have my sympathy. I am
lot going to advise you to leave
lim, because you love him. Try
.o win him back. When he re
urns from his prolonged trips
to the city, instead of looking
nournful and nagging him about
being away, try to look your
prettiest, put on something to at
tract his eye—don’t let him
know you have missed him. Try
to get out and visit folks while
he is away, then when he re
turns be sure and tell him what
i lovely time you’ve had. Let
him realize you don’t miss him.
He thinks you care too much for
lim, and he can do you as he
pleases. He is too sure of you.
When he finds out he hasn’t
been missed by you his vanity
will be hurt and he will then
sit up and take notice that he
isn’t as big as he appears in his
Jwn eyes. Just be nice and in
lifferent to him. And don’t ask
him questions about his trips. I
.hink this little advice will help
you, if you will try to carry it
out. You are too good to him.

If the girl’s parents object
to your marrying her, perhaps
here is a good reason. Can you
ake care of her? Have you anv

\re you steady? If you are all

The Country Home
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON
Charity Should Begin at Home
It is known and understood that
millions • upon millions of dollars
have been contributed to the people
in war-devastated countries of Eu
ropa by private sources, and it is
reliably stated that these helps from
private sources are still aggregat
ing a hundred millions a year. The
United States authorized the ex
penditure of one hundred millions
of dollars last year. to be paid
out of the United States treasury.
Doubtless that appropriation will
become a gift so far as any return
to the taxpayers may be considered .-
Requests are now before congress
to donate another one hundred and
fifty millions, and the people who
are urging it In congress know
very well that there is insufficient
revenue to cover the six billions of
our present estimated expenses of
this government. Still they are urg
ing this donation in season and out
of season.
Our first obligation is manifestly
for our own people. Living costs are
away beyond the reach of ordinary
people. Demands are made on our
hand to meet these high costs of
necessaries. Our own people need
our first attention. There is urgent
demand for relief from excessive
taxation.
The government is continually pil
ing up obligations to be settled for
with tax money. These two things
are inconcilable. We must allow
charity to begin at home and pay
our own debts. It is first the duty
of congress to stop extravagance.
This is imperative. It is the next
duty to stop giving to foreign peo
ples in time of peace.. Our people
are already restless. There will be
more than restlessness later on, if
this waste of the people’s money
is not checked.
Every contribution from the treas
ury must be made by congress. Your
congressmen are directly responsible.
They should understand what our
people are saying and thinking on
these subjects. According to the
constitution the supreme law of the
land, the people of the United States'
cannot be taxed except for legiti
mate purposes, clearly stated in
plain English. Let us get back to
common sense and plain every day
tactics. We have wasted enough and
the end should be in sight or trouble
will come.

there may be other things the
young lady might want to do
- And It is wiser anyhow not t >
see each other too often. You
may stay two or three hours.
That’s long enough to tell any
girl you love her. If she’s en
gaged to you and loves you, 1
don’t see why she would care to
see otner young men.
I am a lonely girl of nineteen
summers. Is it proper for a girl to
comb her hair before the boys? I,
have been going with a boy my age
and dearly love him. He says he
lov. ; me and wants me to kiss him
good night, but I won’t. Is it proper
for me to go to the front porch with
him. when he starts home? Is it :
all right for me to go to nice parties
with boys when there Is an older
person along? I am five feet four
inches high, weight 133 pounds. Do
1 weigh enough for my height. I
have brown hair and blue eyes and
a medium complexion. Will close
thanking you f«r your advice. I re
main, as ever.
BLUE BELL.
Os course, it is natural for a
boy to want to kiss a girl. But
it is up to the girl to object be
cause she must remember she’s
a nice girl and must not have
any liberties taken with her. It
is proper to bid him good night
on the porch of your home, pro
vided he doesn’t keep you out
there. It is perfectly proper to
go to nice parties, when there
is an older person to chaperon it.
Your weight is enough.
Here comes a girl for advice. I am
nineteen years old. Have blue eyes,
wear glasses, brown hair, fiv. feet
two Inches, weight 148. Do you think
I weigh too much? I have been go
ing with a boy 24 years old. H;e
asked me to hiss him and I to'.. him
I didn’t kiss the boys, and he got
mad. Did I do right in not kissing
him? He said he loved me better
than any girl he had ever seen. I
just liked him as a friend. Please
advise me as I am an orphan ah*l.
That young man Is too con-
C euu,. ..ui'vau wnat he neeueu
—a call down. I realize more
than ever, that boys have got
ten the idea they can call on a
girl and start a kissing game im
mediately. What they need is
a good walloping. He will have
lots more respect for you, be
cause you refused him. If he
loves you, don’t worry dear, he
will come back.
I am coming to you for advice. I
am a girl thirteen years old and I
love a boy twenty-three years old and
he says he loves me. Do you think
we should marry or not? What must
I say when a boy says he loves me?
I like to go to school and a min the
fourth grade. Must I give up school
or not? What color suits me best?
I have black hair and brown eyes
and light complexion. Must I ait
on a boy’s lap? Must I write to a
boy that my sister writes to? Please
answer all of my questions.
A LONESOME GIRL.
You are entirely too young to
even think about marrying. You
should go to school, at least three
or four mor i eyears, and if any
man or boy asks you to sit on
his lap, he has Insulted you, and
you must take it as such. If
you do such things now you will
regret it in future years. At
your tender age a girl can’t be
too careful. You can wear most
any color well. There isn’t any
harm in both of you writing to
the same boy.
