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

Mrs. Katie Burlison, Gorcville. 111., tried Cardui and writes: B
“I suffered with female troubles, and was so sick I could not stand ra
mon my feet. Finally I began to take Cardui, and soon began to E
mend. Now I am able to do all my housework and am in much ||
■ better health than I was before.” Try it.

Chicago, Hl. —Statistics compiled by
National Chairman Jones, of the Pro
hibition party from an advance report
of the United States internal revenue ,
bureau for fiscal year 1909, are put
forth as a counter to the assertions of
the Texas Brewers’ association, that
prohibition never prohibits and that ,
more liquor is sold in “dry” than in
“wet” territory.
The assertions are contained in a
statement which in part reads as fol
lows :
“On the basis of the official re
cords issued by the internal revenue
departments for the four fiscal years,
June 30, 1905, to June 30, 1909, the
fact develops that the liquor traffic
during that time has come short of it
expected sales to an estimated aggre- .
gate total of 389,088,333 gallons (
of spirits and fermented liquors.
“Putting aside totals of expected in
crease of liquors production, which did
not materialize in the last two years, ,
we find an actual drop in liquor pro
duct of 1908 and 1909 from the figures
of 1907, of 14,657,329 gallons of whisk
ey and 2,142,614 barrels of beer.

COTTON FAMINE IMMINENT
Unfavorable Conditions Prevail over
♦
a Wide Area
We have no wish to assume the
pose of an alarmist, but we are con
strained to believe that the August
bureau report on the cotton condi
tions indicates almost a disastrously
short crop.
Ever since the commencement of
spring, even before the crop was
planted, we have consistently main
tained that the prospects were adverse
to a full crop this year, for rea
sons stated, which seemed good to
us. In this opinion we considered
only the Texas outlook, and allowed
for an average yield in other sections
Things are turning just as we fore
cast in Texas, but much worse else
where. We never calculated on the
exceedingly unfavorable conditions
experienced in the central Gulf states
of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisian: i
which produce something like 30 per •
cent, of the total yield.
Neither was it anticipated that the
full extent of the Texas shortage
would appear until the latter part of
August. That the Texas conditions
should have declined nine points for '
the month ending July 25th only
shows how' effective were the de
terioating influences at work. These
I evidences will become plainer as the
■ resources required of the plant to .
mature its load of fruit, become great
er. The real damage has not result
ed except to a limited extent from
summer conditions,, but from winter:
ti conditions, and is therefore practical
i ly irreparable.
But a partial crop failure will not
be altogether an unmitigated misfor
? i tune. It ought at least to have the
i good effect of leading the cotton
; trade of the world two very impor
tant and useful lessons.
> One is to show how utterly de-
■ pendent the world is upon our cotton
. , crop. The other is still more import- ■
i ant. It is to demonstrate the folly
I and absurity of magnifying a moder-
I ate occasional surplus production into
a basis for unduly depressing the
i price below the actual cost of produc-
. tion, and thereby discouraging the
planting. We have recently discuss
ed this point more fully.
The New York Stock Exchange peo
! pie are lamenting over the assumed
, consequence of a heavy curtailment
of the money value of*our year's ag
. ricultural products following the re- i
duced yield of cotton in bales. ‘. It I
is remarkable that such astute peo |
pie are not aware that a crop of 11,
• 000,000 bales will bring in more mon
ey than a crop of 14,000,000 bales
would.
Even Texas would probably get as
much for a scant 3,000,.000 bales as !
for 4,000,000. And those other!
states which give promise of a good
crop will profit enormously. Georgia,
I with approximately 2,000,000 bales
can reasonably expect $25,000,000 to
$30,000,000 more than for any other !
cotton crop she ever produced.—Cot

I One of the governors of Missouri,
' Claiborn F. Jackson, married one af
l ter another five sisters. ’“When for
the fifth time,’ says Arthur Herkimer,
the Missouri historian, ’’Jackson '
r broached a martial proposition to
( to his father-in-law the old man wa
eighty and quite deaf. This is the
conversation that ensued:
“ ‘I want Lizzie"
) “ ’Hey?
“ ‘I want you—to give me —Eliza- ■
beth.’
“ ‘Oh, you want “me to give you
Elizabeth, do you? What for??
“ ‘For my wife.’
“ ‘For your life?’
“ ‘I —want —to —marry —Lizzie
“ ‘Oh, yes, Ihcar you. You needn't
rouse the neighborhood.”
“ ‘Well, do you consent?’
“ ‘Yes; I consent,' said the old mat.
and he shook his head and added slow
ly:
“ ‘Yes, you can have her. You’ve
got ’em all now, my boy. But for
goodness sake if anything happens
to that girl don’t come back here and
ask me for the old woman. ’’
Cholera Infantum Cured.
“Something like two years ago my
baby, which was then about a year
old, was taken seriously ill with chol
era infantum, vomiting and purging ■
profusely, writes J. F. Dempsey of
Dempsey, Ala. I did what I could
to relieve her but did her no good,
and being very much alarmed about
her went for a physician but failed
to. find one, so came back by Eider
Bros. & Carter’s store and Mr. El
der recommended Chamberlain's Col
ic Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy. I
procured a bottle df it, went home
as quickly as possible and gave the
baby a dose of the remedy. It re
lieved her in fifteen minutes and
soon cured her entirely.” For sale

UNCLE SAM.
The Way Our Nickname Is Said to
Have Originated
The familiar nickname for the Uni'
; ted States is said to have come
1 about in the following manner.
During the war of 1812 the United >
; States government entered into a con j
I tract with Elbert Anderson to furnish '
: supplies to the army. Whenever the:
United States buys anything from a‘
j contractor it appoints an inspector to j
\ see that the goods are up to the spe
! cifications. In this case the govern-,
1 ment appointed a man by the name of
Samuel Wilson. He was a jolly, whole
i settled man, and was familiarly j
known as Uncle Sam.
: It was his duty to inspect every box !
and cask that came from Elbert An
derson, the contractor, and if the con-i
tents were all right the cargo was ;
! marked with the letters “E. A. —U. S.
j the initials of the contractor and of
the United States.
The man whose duty it was to do
; this marking was something of a jok-;
I er, and when somebody asked him ,
I one day what these letters stood for j
he said they meant Elbert An-
I derson and Uncle Sam.
Everybody, including Uncle Sam
himself, thought this a very good
joke, and by and by it got into print,
; and before the end cf the war it was
known all over the country, and that
i is how the United Slates received the
name of Uncle Sam. —Des Moines Rog

Bull Butts Engine off Railroad Track
j Huntsville, Ala.—An engine and two
cars of a freight train on the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis
were wrecked north of Elorli Friday
when the engine struck a large bull.
- Engineer Nathan Jones and Fireman
Shepherd were badly scalded. The
engine turned over and the two men
were caught, underneath, but were
not crushed. Engineer Jones says
the bull literally butted the engine off
the track. The animal refused to get
off when the whistle was blown and
bell rung, but made a charge on
front of the engine as it approached
him.
The coal fields production of the
United States for the year 1908 shows
i a falling off of $82,484,781 as compared
with the production of 1907, accord
ing to a report issued by the United
States Geological Survey. This was
\ due in a large measure to the effect
lof the panic of 1907, added to which
there as a general suspension of oper-
J lions in the bituminous regulations onU
April 1, pending an adjustment of the'
wage scale The total production of
coal in 1908 was 415,842,691 short
’ tons were Pennsylvania anthracite and
314,117. vir inis amount 83,268,754
tons were Pennslyvania anthracite an
332,573,262 was bituminous and lignite
The total production in 1908 showed a
decrease of 64,520,726 short tons or
i 13.43 per cent, with a value of SB2

Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Di
arrhoea Remedy Never Known
to Fail.
“I have used Chamberlain’s Colic, 1

Under the general tax act, which
will become effective January 1, 1910, !
the following tax is laid upon dogs:
“On all dogs the sum of $1 per head.
Such tax to be enforced by levy and
sale as other taxes are collected and
not to interfere with the imposition
and collection of any municipal taxes
on dogs. Provided that in the event,
no purchaser at the sale of any dog
bids the amount of said execution,
i that the loving officer shall cause
said dog to be killed.”
In 1907 no fewer than 444,121 pound
of crude opium (for medicinal pur
poses) and 151,916 pounds of smok
ing opium ere imported in this coun
try.
Whalebone cost only 35 cents a
pound half a century ago. Today it
costs about. $5 a pound. The total
product landed from the American
fisheries during the nineteenth centu
ry exceeded 90,000,000 pounds. A
single whale may yield up to 3,000
pounds.

The Value of Good
Digestion
Is easy to figure if you know what your stomach
is worth. Kodol keeps the stomach at par value,
by insuring good digestion. Kodol cures Dyspepsia.
Kodol insures good digestion by
absolutely duplicating Nature’s
normal process, in perfectly digest- i
Ing all food taken into tho stora- i
acli. i
’ While Kodol is doing this, the .
stomach is resting—and becoming
strong and healthy. A strong and
healthy stomach guarantees a i
sound and active brain.
The man with a sound stomach i
—a stomach that is doing for the i
body Just what Nature Intended 1
It to do--Is the man who is always
prepared for any emergency. He
Is “there with tho goods.”
The man with a sick stomach, Is J
a man sick all over. When the .
stomach is irritated by undigested 1
food, the blood and heart are di- '
rectly affected. Then dullness, un- ,
natural sleepiness, sick-beadaches, '
vertigo and fainting spells, and '
even serious brain trouble develop. .
Kodol will prevent these.
