I Woman’s Beauty 1
Some women retain their beauty to an advanced ■
■ age. But women, who regularly endure pain, age I
fl rapidly, for suffering leaves its lasting marks on g|
fl them.
H Nearly all women suffer more or less with some ■
fl form of female trouble. It should not be neglected. E
■ Avoid the pain—treat yourself at home by taking ■
fl Cardui, as thousands of other women have done. fl
fl Begin at once and give Cardui a fair trial.

fl on my feet. Finally I began to take Cardui, and soon began to

How They Spent Their Money.
Selfishness —
I kept all my wealth—and 1 mourn
for my loss,
For gold in a skeleton hand turns to
dross;
Love, friendship, and gratitude might
I have bought—
But I kept all my wealth till it
mouldered to naught.
Pleasure —
I spent all my gold—l danced and
I sang.
The palace I built with hilarity rang;
Plays, revels, and frolics from even
to dawn —
But I lie here with nothing—l spent
it —it’s gone.
Avarice—
I loaned my good money—at grasp
ing per cent —
'Twas I who got all that you kept and
you spent;
While I counted my millions, Death
plundered me bare —
And this grave that I sleep in be
longs to my heir.
Charity—
It was little I had, but I gave all my
store
To those who had less, or needed it
more;
And I came with Death laughing, for
here at the grave j
In riches unmeasured I found what I
gave!

proud to beg and too honest to

A LIGHTNING METHOD OF CAL
CULATING INTEREST.
One of the shortest and simplest
methods krown for calculating in
terest is to multiply the principal by
the number of days, and divide as '
follows:
For 4 per cent, divide by 90.
For 5 per cent, divide by 72.
For 6 per cent, divide by 60.
For 7 per cent, divide by 52.
For 8 per cent, divide by 45.
Then point off four decimal places.
For instance, to find interest on
$360.00 for 92 days at 8 per cent,
multiply $360.00 by 92, divide by
45, and point off four decimal places.
The result is $7.36. —Implement Age.

A BALE TO EVERY ACRE.
The time has come when the South
ern farmer must recognize the fact
that he cannot afford to plant an acre
of ground in cotton that will not pro
duce a bale (five hundred pounds) of
lint.
The idea of working three or four
acres of land to get one bale of cot
ton must be abandoned by the farm
ers who expect to reach that plane
of success upon which he should
move.
If you have no land that will pro
duce a bale of cotton to the acre, go
to work saving your stable manure,
gather all the litter you can from
your fence corners, pine thickets or
oak groves, and scatter this on your
land. Plant the land in peas and turn
under peas, vines and all. Twenty
loads of stable manure and twenty
loads of trash, straw, etc., put on an
acre of land reasonbly fertilized and
planted in peas, will so improve any
land as to enable you to grow a bale
of cotton per acre, especially after
one or two year's application, and
there is not a farmer in Georgia, or
in the South, but what had better
work one acre of land to get a bale,
than to work three acres of land to
get a bale and a half. Thn how much
better for him to work one acre and
get a bale than to work four acres
and get a bale.—Farmers Union News

Cholera Infantum Cured.
‘‘Something like two years ago my

profusely, writes J. F. Dempsey of

her went for a physician but failed
to find one, so came back by Elder

PELLAGRA.
Pellagra has been known in Italy
and various Mediterranean coun
tries for two hundred years. It ]
was noted in his country only a few
years ago. Doctors who have stud
ied the disease are convinced that it
results from eating bad corn, some
of them claim to have proven this.
What defect in corn causes the dis
-1 ease, does not seem to have been
\ learned positively. Corn is subject
\ to rust, mildew, mould, and other pro
' cesses of deterioration. Horses and
mules have long been known to suffer
from eating bad corn, particularly,
with black rust. Their disease
used to be called blind staggers
and its symptoms were not unlike
those of human patients suffering
with pellagra.
In Itally and other countries of
southern Europe pellagra is a dis
j ease of the poor, who eat great
quantities of polenta or corn meal
1 mush.
Dr. Walter Lenahan, of Chatta
nooga, Tenn., is quoted as saying,
tlie disease appears first in the stom
ach, next attacks the feet and final
ly spreads over the v%hole body in
the form of a red or copper colored
rash. In its final stages, which are
( terrible in suffering, the nerves are at
! tacked. The eyes lose their luster
and the body its elasticity, the shoul
ders become stooped, the patient
' ‘"forgets how to laugh,” loses flesh
and wals with shuffling gait. Pro
; gressive deterioration of the body is
followed by exhaustion and death.
. Now-a-days corn is handled by the
carload and the milling in done in
| vastly greater quantities. There is
mu ch more opportunity for careless- j
ness in the handling of the grain. It i
is possible that pallagra calls for pre- i
I vention in the form of the inspection ■
of corn offered the mills more than it
does for cure by the medical men.
High-Price Shoeing.
General St. Clair Mulholland, veter
an and historian of the Civil War,
i tells on incident showing the utter
worthlessness of Confederate paper
money at the close of the war.
‘‘Shortly after Lee’s surrender,” say
the general, "I was a short distance !
from Richmond. The Confederate sol
diers were going home to become ]
men of peace again and were think
ing about their farms.
‘‘‘One had a lame, broken down ;
horse, which he viewed with pride.
J‘Wish I had him, Jim,’ said the other.;
‘What’ll you take for him? I’ll give
you $20,000 for him.’
“ ‘No,’ said Jim.
“ ‘Give you $50,000.’
“ ‘No,’ said Jim.
“ ‘Give you $100,000,’ his friend
said.
“ ‘Not much,’ replied Jim. ‘I just
gave $120,000 to have him shod.’ ’’
No fewer than 1,500 towns and vil
lages in Germany still own, and have
owned, down from the middle ages, so
much common land that their inhab-]
itants pay neither rates nor taxes.!
Five hundred of those townships and
villages derive as great a rental from
their lands that they are able, in ad- ,
dition, to pay every citizen, on New ;
Year’s day, a bonus of from $25 to \,
SIOO as his share of the surplus rev- j
enues. I'

COTTON CARNIVAL
The white staple with which the
- South levies tribute upon all civlli
-1 zation has developed a hundred new
■; uses and activities since the last
■ purely cotton exhibition several years
ago recorded the progress then
■ achieved.
It is now the proposal of the cotton
■ seed crushers of the South, put for
i ward by G. S. Weaver, chairman of
the publicity bureau of the Interstate
i Cotton Seed Crushers’ Association,
I to hold next fall a comprehensive
• cotton carnival in some representa
, tive southern city, possibly New
• Orleans. The projected exposition is
i to reflect in broad but comact scope ]
■ the myriad advances made by cotton !
; itself and its innumerable by-prod-!
ucts, ranging from more profitable
■ cultural methods to the latest com-;
mercial application wrung from the
substance of the cotton seed.
I The suggestion was put forward a .
year ago by L. A. Ransom, formerl
. president of the Interstate Cotton;
Seed Crushers' Association, and'
prominently identified with the cotton
seed interests. Its revival and ampli j
flcation at the present time is au- {
spiciously in line with the general and]
persistent crusade to acquaint the peo
ple of the United States with the
endless possibilities of this dominant
southern product.
As tentatively outlined, the exhibit
would bring together domestic and ,
New England and European cotton 1
spinners with specimens of their j
wares; representing Southern farm-!
ers, with actual illustrations of ex
isting methods for cotton production,
, government experts, showing the
latest word from science in the mat- !
ter of tensive and improved produs
tion; manufacturers and mill people,]
demonstrating tile bewildering va-i
riety of uses nowadays for by prod- !
| ucts of the cotton seed from the 1
so-callod “hogless” lard to medicinal
I preparations and the finest toilet
articles. Never before has so inclu
sive an exhibition been projected,
and its educative value must inevita
bly be of the most effectual nature.

j
She is pretty and winsome and witli
it all mischievous, and it. was tills i
that prompted her to play a little ]
' prank that had all of the marks of a
! near-tragedy, though even the thoughtl
]of bloodshed was foreign to her mo
tive. It w’as all fun to Mary—that
may be her name—but. it caused her ]
best beau much discomfiture and
brought a rather sensational ending
to what had been a most pleasant !
evening.
John—we’ll call him by that name ;
in the story—had been calling on
Mary on this particular night, and
was preparing to leave. They had
reached the front door and John
suddenly bent over and kissed her.
Whether this was the first time he
had turned this trick history fails
jto state. At any rate, Mary blushed
; and exclaimed:
‘‘John, how dare you? I’m a good .
mind to call papa.”
‘‘Oh, go on and call him. See if 1
i care,” bravely responded John as
;he planted another smack on those
I cherry-colored lips. Just then the
: girl pretended she heard her father
calling and excused herself for a mo
ment. Entering the room, she found
her father reading a newspaper, and.
with a twinkle in her eyes, said:
“‘Oh, father, John wants to see
your new shotgun. I was just tell
; ing him about it. Won’t you show
it to him?”
Now, father had just purchased a
i now gun, and with natural pride,
seized it and started toward the i
young man at the door.
John got a glimpse of father and i
the gun, and one glimpse was all he
needed. He shot out of that house
; with such speed that had he been an
automobile a regulation speed motor
would have been unable to keep tab
on him.
"What’s the matter with that crank
is he crazy?” exclaimed father.
Daughter merely laughed.
Now Mary is trying to extricate
] nerself from her joke.—Atlanta Geor- j

j How to Get Rid of Galls and Gullies.
Whenever we see a galled spot or

help v ondering how many land-own

continuance of such conditions. The

rightly employed, would prevent their
i existence or restore them to a useful

I We do not believe in filling gullies

the best remedy is straw, coarse sta

Women Suffer Agonies
from Diseased Kidneys
And Most Women Do This Not Knowing the
Real Cause of their Condition
These poor, suffering women
have been led to bolleve that their
misery of mind and body is entire
ly due to “Ills of their sex.” Usually
the kidneys and bladder arc re
sponsible—or largely so. And In
such cases, the kidneys and blad
der are the organs, that need and
must have attention.
Those torturing, enervating sick
headaches, dragging pains in baqk,
groin and limbs, bloating and swell
ing of the extremities, extreme
nervousness or hysteria, listless
ness and constant tired, worn-out
feeling—are almost certain symp
toms of disordered and diseased
kidneys, bladder and liver.
