! HAD NERVOUS
; I BREAK-DOWN
But Health Restored to Tex
as Lady, Who Is Now Well
and Strong, Able to Do
All Her Housework
and More
V
Rosebud, Texas. Mrs. Annie
Lange, of R. F. D. No. 4, this place,
Writes as follows regarding her ex
perience with Cardul; “Some time
ago I had a nervous break-down of
•ome kind. . . i was very weak
and so nervous. It all seemed to
come from ... trouble, for at
• . . I had fainting spells and
■uffered a great deal, but more from
the weak, trembly, no-account feel
ing than anything else. I knew I
heeded a tonic, and needed it badly.
"I began the use of Cardul, to see
if I couldn't get some strength, as I
knew of other cases that had been
. helped by its use. I felt better.
. I soon saw a great improve
ment, so kept it up.
“I used seven bottles of Cardu!,
and can say the money was well
■pent, for I grew well and strong.
Now able to do all my house work
and a great deal of work besides.”
If you are run-down, weak, nerv
, «us, and suffer from the ailments
peculiar to woman, it is very like
ly that Cardul' will help you, in the
Way it has helped thousands of oth
> Yrs. during the past 40 years.
Take Cardui, the woman’s tonic.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
please let a north Georgia girl into your
jolly band of boys nnd girls? This is my
first attempt to write to the Letter Box and
I hope it will be printed. I wonder what
you all are doing this pretty, sunny morn
ing. 1 crochet and tat and knit also and
read all the good books I can get my hands
on. Igo to school and will be ready for the
eighth grade when school starts up again,
and that will be in September. I like to go
to school. As all the cousins describe them
selves, I will do likewise: I have brown,
curly hair, brown eyes, dark complexion and
weigh about 105 pounds: my weight is five
feet and I am between the age of twelve
and sixteen. I live on a farm, and like it
fine. Would any of you cousins like to cor
respond with a Georgia girl? If so, I Will
try to answer all letters and cards received.
I remain, as ever, your new cousin,

Hello, Aunt Julia and cousins! I just
.vonuer if Aunt Julia will please admit an
other South Carolina girlie into the happy
circle. I live on a farm, and like farm life
fin- Just lots of boys and girls live near
us, and gee whiz! we sure have lots of fun
together. We go fishing, have fish fries,
picnics, ice cream suppers, parties and do
lots of other things for pastime. Oh, my! I
just wish some of you cousins could be with
me. I would give you all a real nice time.
We have lots of fruit this year—peaches,
apples, pears, grapes and watermelons. 1
enjoy helping mamma can fruite. I will not
describe myself, as my letter is getting long.
I am a blonde; my age is between fifteen
and eighteen. I wonder who can guess it.
Pearl Brown, I think your letter was real
interesting. Come again. I would like to
correspond with some of you boys and girls.
I will answer all letters and cards received,
so let them fly. If Aunt Julia prints this,
I will come again. With oceans of love and
a kiss on each name, from

Good evening, friends! It does seem good
to take an active part in one of your weekly
meetings again! Come, Ross lioistun, sit at
my right hand, and Journal Header at my
left and help me out when 1 can't think of
the right word Ao say. Say, cousins, where
did you go the glorious Fourth? I went to
preaching to a union service and heard Rev.
Chambly, of Athens, his subject being
••Prayer.’* It was glorious. Listen, cousins,
how many of you would like to have the
service keV. J. S. Heartsfield wrote in the
Messenger paper?
« Service
Service! How much we do need to study
this word! If there is one lesson our people
need to loam it is to serve. I want to men
tion some of the ways we cun serve. Many
of our people have an idea that they must
do something ready great before they can
serve. Few are willing to begin at the bot
tom and climb to the top. I think ambition
is a blessed trait of character, but when it
Is wrongly applied it does great harm. We
have the idea that we are fitted for the
biggest things, and that sort of idea has
ruined many young people. I want to call
vour attention to one thing used by the
lord Jesus: “He that Is faithful in very
little is faithful In much.” Now, this is
what Jesus meant: If you are not willing to
be faithful in a small way, how can you ex
pect to be given a large task?” God is not
going to give yon the big place until you
have filled the little one.
With all good wishes, I am
Verv sincerely,

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Just a few
words with you all this fine summer eve

you cousins are doing for pastime nowadays.
I’m not doing anything much. Why don't
more of you Alabama kids write? I never
see many letters from this state at all. I’ve
written once before, so I’ll not describe my
self this time. Pearl Rose, why don't you

call you Miss Julia or Mrs. Julia or some
thing like that; but I will try and not make
any mistakes this time. Aunt Julia, I can’t
tell you anything about this part of Georgia
today, only it sure is raining up here. I will
not ask you if it is raining in Atlanta, for
I know I can’t get any answer. I guess you
have more letters than you can read, anyway,
much less answer them all. The letter that
I was speaking of is the one I was giving
the cousins a contest in on guessing my birth
day. Will you please print that letter as
soon as you can get to it, as I don’t guess 1

Dearest Aunt Julia and Cousins: Just one
year ago I made my last visit with the
cousins. I promised then not to come again
in a long time. So here 1 come with my
timid knock. Will you this time allow me
to sit over here on the sisters’ side? This
is my first visit since I married nnd I hardly
know how to address you, though I’m not
among strangers, for I see so many familiar
faces, and some of the unknown writers to
me seem like old friends. I am no longer
‘‘Ruby Betts,” of Maben, Miss., for on the
4th day of January I was married to one of
the best ideals in the world. Now we are
indeed happy in that dreamed “little home
on the hill.” I wonder what has become of
all my Letter Box friends. I have
several letters since jl’ve married, but being
so busy, couldn’t find time to answer, so 1
thought I’d write a few lines to the Letter
Box to let them know I was married and, of
course, then they will know I have very lit
tle time for writing, and perhaps will pardon
me for not answering their letters. I often
think of them all, and the pleasant moments
I spent corresponding with them last year.
Wake up Janie and Bessie Betts, of Fnce
ville, Ga., and write to me; also Marie Her
bin. I will run along now and promise to
tell you more next time. Love and best
wishes to Aunt Julia and cousins.

This requires nimbleness and practice. When the assailant
comes toward you, grasp his right wrist with both hands, swing
his arm to the left, pass it over your head, pivotting in such a
way as to find yourself at his back with his right hand behind
him, his wrist firmly in your grip. If this is successfully maneu

Sabbath School
Lesson
For Sunday September 26
BY MAEION M’H. HTTLI,
Golden Text: “Man looketh on the
outward appearance, but God look
oth on the heart.”
How many of the Kings of Isreal
and Judah can you name? If that
question were put to any ordinary
group of Christians, probably all of
them could name Saul, David and
Solomon; a few others might name
Jereboam and Reboboam, Asa Heze
kiah, Josiah, Manassch and Zede
kiah. But who could tell the name
associated the most in the book of
Ezekiel, the last on the thrown in
direct line with David? Possibly
one could be found who could name
them all. Why are Saul, David and
Solomon so much better known than
any of the others? Just now it
might be because we have been
studying Incidents in their lives for
the past three »months. This, how
ever, would be true at any time, we
believe; for there are outstanding
facts in their lives that make it
true.
Saul, the Willful
Saul is known for his primacy,
for his physique, and for his perse
cution. David’s name brings to our
minds his skill, his success, his sin,
and his songs. So Solomon’s name
is a synonem for his wisdom, his
words, his works and his wonders.
Saul as the first Kin of Israel
had a wonderful opportunity. He
could have moulded the nation as he
pleased, and made of it what h ls
heart desired. He had many nne
qualities, he had a splendid physique
and attratlve personality. He was
thoughtful of his father, at least;
and was the Idol of the people. But
he was essentially selfish; he
couldn’t bear to see any one else
have any praise. This was the be
ginning of his jeaiousy and hirtn
persecution of David that marred ir
revocably what might otherwise
have been a useful life. He was
self-willed, another evidence of his
selfishness. No man can £ave hls
own way and “get by it all
the time. Saul was no exception and
his end was disastrous He lost his
own self respect, hls kingdoms, his
friends and his life.
David the Worshipful
David was the many-sided man.
We think at once, when his name
is mentioned, of his skill and valor
in his encounters with lion, bear and
giant. We think of his success in
evading Saul, In controllng himself,
in governing his people, in conquer
ing his enemies, in putting down
rebellion and in building a kingdom.
But we think also of his sin. Oh,
the depths of it —an adulterer, a
murderer and dissembler, a covetous
man —he broke practically every
commandment in the decalogue.
David was a big enough man to
recognize and acknowledge his mis
take and David’s sin always brings
to mind also his wonderful songs,
especially that Fifty-first psalm,
through which he lays bare before
God and the world his heart or
hearts. If we should pick out one
thing that was the secret of his whole
life it would be his appreciation of
the realty of Hod’s presence. David s
habit was to ask God what to do be
fore he made any plans, and then to
do what God said, depending upon
God for strength to accomplish it.
There were two exceptions to this
rule, but they only serve to prove
it. These were in the matters of
Uriah and Bethsheba, and in his
first attempt to move the ark. Th*
results were so disastrous that David
never forgot the lessons.
Solomon the Wise
Solomon’s name brings before our
minds his glorious kingdom, his
wisdom, his magnificient building
operations, his merchandise, his
proverbs or wise sayings, and the
wonders of his court that startled the
world and excited a woman’s . curi
osity, which was more than satisfied.
Solomon had a hard task to per
form. It is always difficult to fol
low an outstanding character. It
was particularly so in Solomon’s
case because David had been so won
derfully blessed, and Solomon was
so young and inexperienced. But
David had taugUt him where to go
when he needed help, and God gave
him, as God loves to give, far more
exceeding abundance above all that
he asked or thought.
Yet Soimon’s wisdom was his
weakness, for in seeking to estab
lish his kingdom forever, he sowed
the seeds that resulted in the dis
ruption of it. His plan was to put
a great big task before his people
so as to unite them into a strong na
tional bond; but it taxed them to the
straining point, which, after his
death, brought about its disintegra
tion. For Solomqn didn’t keep close
enough to God.
Os the three David, in spite of
the fact that his sin was the most
heinous, has a warmer place in our
hearts, because David brings us
closer to God. Say, are you trying
to have your own way ilke Saul did?
Are you getting proud of your great
achievements like Saul did? Have
you poured out your heart in confes
sion as David did? Well, will you
not follow David in this —that you
will never take any step, trival or
important, without finding out what
God would like you to do? In tUat
path is peace and power.

WHAT BECOMES OF
OLD STRAW HATS?
Some one with a penchant for
the mysterious propounded the Im
mortal and unanswerable query:
"What becomes of all the pins?”
Perhaps “What becomes of all the
stra hats?” might be equally mys
terious and unanswerable.
Straw hats are the most salable
of articles carried by clothiers and
haberdashers. A man may get along
with last summer’s suit or even have
his low shoes half-soled, but it’s
hard to fool anybody with a last
summer’s straw hat. As a matter
of fact, most men buy two straw
hats each summer. The early sea
son rains, usually spoil the first pur
chase, and by the time it has been
cleaned two or three times it be
comes Impossible. Then about the
time of the midsummer break in
prices he gets another to last him
until that fatal day in September
when the police refuse to arrest the
“jokers” who insist upon smashing
any straw hat they see worn along
the street.
At a side door of one of the down
towr hotels a big pile of straw hats
has reposed daily for the last two
weeks waiting for the ashman
Th-.se bats have been discarded by
the guests. A hole is punched in the
top and the hats are placed on a
string.
In one of the popular Broadwa>
shows they use up three straw hat:
at each performance. Patrons won
der how they keep up the supply
but, counting matinees, they nee.
twenty-four old straw hats :
Os New York’s 5,000,000 folk
probably 1,000,000 buy a new straw
hat in May. Perhaps 250,000 o
thesv get rained on, lost, smashed
in the subway jam or thrown away
at the ball game and are replaced
by a second furchase in July or Au
gust. Os the whole bunch, it is log
ical to assume that 250.000 are car
ried over to be thrown away next
summer. That leaves 1,000,000 un
accounted for and makes pertinent
the query, what becomes <rf the
straw hats? —New York Evaninjg

You’ve laid an egg, you’ve done your

Call heaven and earth to witness it;
Tell all your neighbors, blow your

Chaff all the other fowls to scorn.
Cackle, cackle, advertise, if you’d live

Cackle, cackle, nothing pays
Quite so much as telling ways;
Tell the world you’re on the job,
Let them see you’re not a dub.
Sing your lilting song of glee,
Let them hear your pedigree.
Cackle, cackle, claim a toast
If you would eschew a roast.
Cackle, cackle, tell them pat
You are still the autocrat

And to dictate terms you’re able;
You’re the power behind the throne;
Beside you Chanticleer’s a drone;
Crows he long and loud, that rooster.

PROBIT IN POULTRY ,
Contrary to the general idea, now
is the time to start your poultry
yard. There are some cases of spon
taneous success, but they are the
exceptions and not the rule. The
year for poultry clubs begins in No
vember, but the plans and earnest
efforts begin now.
The .United States government has
tried for several years to get one
hundred hens on every farm, and the
girls’ clubs have worked wonders
along that line. To the county home
demonstration agents too much
praise cannot be given for their
splendid work —just a few years ago
one or two in a community had
pure-bred flocks, perhaps; but now
there are dozens of them. As every
one knows, from time immemorial the
farm flock has been the special
charge of the woman on the farm.
She, poor creature, had to make that
money stretch over all sorts of ex
penses. The man on the place fuss

DOROTHY DIX TALKS
THE ATTRACTION OF OPPOSITES
BY DOROTHY DIX
The World’s Hifhest Paid Woman Writer
(Copyright, 1920, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Ina.)
* YOUNG man writes to me that
/\ he is engaged to be married
iX to a Kiri who is his opposite
in every respect.
He is very religious. She is very
worldly minded.
He is thrifty. She is extravagant
and wasteful.
He is a professional man, interest
ed in serious reading. She never
reads anything except the fashion
notes and the society page in the
newspapers.
He thinks a great deal of hls duty
towards others. She is only selfishly
bent on getting the best for herself.
He is amiable. She is high-tem
pered and cannot even get along with
her own mother.
Now, although this j,ir fascinates
the young man, and he loves her
dearly, he doubts the wisdom of mar
rying her, and asks me what I think
about it, and if he can change the
girl into something nearer to hls
ideal of what a woman should be.
I think that marriage between peo
ple who look at life from opposite
standpoints, and whose tastes differ
on every subject from politics to pie,
is madness. The holy estate is bound
to be nothing but a bloody battlefield
for them, on which they fight out to a
finish every question that arises be
tween them.
Nobody’s ideal of being happy is
to be scrappy. The people whom we
love and enjoy being with, are not
those who antagonize us at every
turn and who keep our fur rubbed
continually the wrong way. Those
of whose society we never tire are
the congenial souls who think as we
think, who are interested in the same
subjects wt are, who enjoy the same
things that we do, who can even
mount the same hobbies that we ride
and canter along contentedly at our
This is particularly true of matri
mony where happiness or misery is
made up, for the msot part, of a mul
titude of little things, comparative
ly few husbands and wives commit
any great sin against each other, but
multitudes of husbands and wives
bore each other to extinction because
they have no common interest, or
they get on each other’s nerves be
cause they differ on every subject
under the sun.
A woman who is as interested in
her husband’s business as he is, can
make an evening at home thrillingiy
interesting for both of them by lis
tening with bated breath while he
discourses about the grocery trade,
or discusses his patients or his law
patients with her, whereas, the wife
who yawns in her husband's face
when he tries to tell her of his life
work, can send him to the club for
company, and shed tears over her
own forlornness in being life alone.
A religious man can have hls heart
broken by a wife who sneers at his
faith, and he can be kept in a per
petual wrangle over points of dog
ma. Many a family has been broken
up over infant baptism and open or
close communion.
On tfre other hand, no married cou
ples are so happy as those who go
hand In hand to the same church, or
who have the same grand opera or
moving picture taste.
It is far more important than
young people realize for a man and
woman who are about to marry to
think alike, and to hold the same
ideals. That is, if they want to be
happy. For the attraction of oppo
sites is a devilish contrivance of
natives for the good of the species.
It takes no account of the well-being
of the individual. The very qualities
of unlikeness that drew people to
gether before marriage and which
piqued the interest of the other, after
marriage drives them apart. The

little playful kitten, and with about

though them, and saw only the corn
they snatched, failing to re
member that clothes, school books,
even coffee and sugar were bought
with the egg money. But the times
are changing.
In Florida there has been a won
derful awakening, and I wish all of
you could read the report made by
Miss Alice Dorsett, of ' Suwanee
county. She gathered nearly 400
members in her clubs and the exhibit
at the state fair was splendid.
But facts are enthusing the clubs
everywhere, and I want all of you to
plan right now to put a pure-bred
flock on your place or to get rid of
your scrub roosters and get a pure
bred. Don’t sacrifice your flock.
Eggs this winter will be high and you
need your hensi Start with the hens
you have, then in the spring get
eggs or baby chicks of the variety
you have, or that you like best, and
gradually get in line.
Right now set old biddy on any
eggs you have, by Christmas you
will have some frying size. They
will give you experience and money
to put in fine eggs. It is wonderful
how every day brings its problems
and helps you learn to handle your
flock. Young cockerels ranging in
prices from $3 to $5 can now be
bought and will be ready for your
spring flock. Or a trio of two-year
old hens and an older cockerel now
will start you on your pure-bred
flock. They will be cheaper now
than in January, and you may this
winter get a nice lot of youngsters
from such a start. Don’t listen to
anyone as to the variety, use your
own judgment after you have decid
ed whether you want all eggs or a
dual purpose fowl. Leghorns are
tough after they get older, and they
fly like birds. Brahmas are clumsy,
but fine for table, and so are Black
Langshans; the latter are good win
ter layers. Wyandottes, Rocks and
Rhode Island Reds are the farmers’
sort, for they lay well and make fine
table fowls. Every neighborhood
should have one person to caponize
the surplus cockerels. They sell as
well as turkeys and are a sure crop.
as much intelligence as a kitten,
seems cute and amusing to an intel
lectual man before marriage, but
alter he is married to her, her ignor
ance and lack of brains no longer
charm him. It makes him despise her
as a fool and turn to other women
for companionship.
And the little butterfly girl is equal
ly unhappy. She thought it would
be wonderful to sit forever at the
feet of a great, wise man and woe
ship him as if he were a god, but
she gets tired of that when it is a
daily program, and wants somebody
to play about with her, to take her to
dances and cabarets and talk the
jargon of the Street which is the
only language she understands.
As for men and womhen taking to
themselves wives and husbands that
they don’t quite like, with a view to
making them over to suit their fan
cies, that is the supreme folly that
keeps the divorce courts working
over time.
It simply can’t be done. When a
man and woman have reached the
marriageable ' age, their characters
are formed. They have come into
Gieir inheritance of brains and prin
ciples. Their tastes are made. Their
habits set, and while these may be
slightly altered by circumstances and
associations, they are never ( mate
rially changed.
The silly woman is going to be
silly to the end of the chapter. The
girl who kept her father’s nose to
the grindstone is going to keep her
husband humping to pay her bills.
The girl who could not get along
with her mother, is going to quarrel
with her husband. The man who is
lazy and unenterprising as a boy. Is
going to make a loafing man. He
who is brutal and rude to hls mother
and sisters, will take out his boorish
ness on his wife. The stingy beau
makes a tlght-wad husband,> and so
it goes.
Marriage doesn’t change people. It
just develops to the highest degree
the best and the worst in them.
The sensible thing is not to marry
your opposite, but your double, and
to pick out for a life partner the
kina of a person who is already what
you like, instead of taking something
you don’t wont and trying to make
it over into what you fancy.
