MISER! IN
HEAD AND BACK
! A Lady Writes She Suffered
So, Would Have To Stay
In Bed for Days. Is
Now Well.
Cartersvflle, Oa. The following Is
| from Mrs. Will T Lawhon, of Carters
; vllle: "I am writing this because I
j want other women to know what Car-
I dui has done for me.
Before I commenced taking Cardui,
1 had headache »o bad, 1 would have
t<> stay in bed for days at a time. I
suffered untold misery with my head
and back.
I saw Cardui advertised and decided
to try It. T took three bottles. After
taking the first bottle, I could see a
vast difference In my feelings, and de
cided to lake the second, and took
three In all.
After taking the third bottle, T felt
like n new woman altogether, and I
will always praise Cardui a« a boon
to woman’s Ills.
I believe It saved my life and I am
now a well, henlthy woman, and my
huabnnd Joins me In my praise for
Cardui.
Before 1 began taking Cardui, I was
Irregular, hut since I began taking It,
I have been regular and without any
pain
everyone tells rne ( am the picture
of health since taking Cardui. I will
recommend It to every suffering wo
man.”
If you suffer from any of the ail
ments so common to women, or If yon
fell the need of a good strengthening
tonic, why not give Cardui, the wo
mnti's tonic, n trial? Begin today.
Your druggist sells Cardui.
ptrlnus date for assembling In that
it Is (he ninety-ninth anniversary of
the birth of Mrs. Elisabeth Cadv
Stanton, one of the pioneers of the
woman suffrage movement in this
country and who died In 11*02.
The delegate* were welcomed In ad
dresses by Mayor Hillary Howse of
Nashville and by officials of local and
state suffrage organisations. Mrs.
Maude Howe Elliott responded for the
visitors The convention later began
Its Initial business session, which In
cluded presentation of reports of vari
ous committees and officers of the
association.
The report of the credentials 'om
mlttee by Mrs Stanley McCormick
of New York, chairman, was consid
ered among the more important mat
ters before the early session, as tho
convention will be called upon to set
tle contest* between opposing dele
gations from Tennessee and Illinois.
At tonight's meeting Governor B. \V
Hooper of Tennessee, formally will
welcome the suffragists to the state
and Dr. Shaw will deliver her annual
address
under my personal guarantee that It
will clean your sluggish liver better
than nasty calomel; It won't make you
alck and you can cat anything you
want without being salivated. Your
druggist guarantees that cHch spoon
ful will start your liver, clean your
bowels and straighten you up by
morning or you get your money hark.
Children gladly take Dodson's Diver
Tone because It ta pleasant tasting and
doesn't gripe or cramp or make them
sick
I am selling millions of bottles of
Dodson's Diver Tone to people who
have found that this pleasant, vege
table, liver medicine takes the place of
dangerous calomel. Buy one bottle
on toy sound, reliable guarantee. Ask
your druggist about me.

... THE...
Public Mind
IF A THIRD OF BIX WERE THREE
To The Herald.
I was rather amused to read In
the press some time ago of the ex
perience of a father In putting to rout
a coterie of high school students by
propounding this very simple problem
In mental mathematics:
If a third of six were three,
What would a fourth of twenty be?
1 emitted a sort of an Involuntary
chuckle at the discomfiture of the
victims, when my youngest son,
scarcely a year out of high school, and
sitting close by me, said, “What’s the
Joke?" He's a clean cut young chap,
not yet I*, and In hlB own estimation
Is "some pumpkins.” I know, because
I was his age at one time myself.
Well, this was certainly unforeseen,
like manna from heaven. I read him
the problem without the answer and
asked him to solve it. I read It over
several times at Ills solicitation. He
v, a* sparring for time, you know. Did
he solve it? He did, decidedly not,
end what's more, never will until he
is shown.”
On the other hand my elder son,
by four years, handed me the correct
answer on a s rap of paper almost
Instantly. This latter son after spend
ing on* year In high school came to
me voluntarily and said he was only
wasting his time there and proved It
to my satisfaction, whereupon I took
him out, put him In and through a
technical school of high repute, where
he was graduated with honor. I wanted
to do the same for the younger son,
but h - .couldn’t sre I*. I was not at
all surprised by rending thiß article
and It must be acknowledged our
children of today are certainly not
well educated. They go and got
through school In some sort of a fash
ion. whether forced by numbers to
make room, w-hether by Incompetence
of teachers, whether by a faulty sys
tem, who can say?
I could work this problem mentally
before I was 12, never forgot It an-,1
never shall, because it was properly
taught me Its solution Is so simple
an to be absurd
High schools In general, unless a
scholar is preparing for college or, i.i
case of girls, for teaching, are to my
mind and experience failures. Even
a high school graduate who wishes
to enter college must go through a
preparatory school In order to pass a
college extrance examination. I ven
ture to say I could pick ten exam
ples out of the old arithmetics I was
taught from, hooks we had to buy
ourselves and copies of which I still
retain and treasure, and. Riven lOt)
high school pupils or graduates, nut
40 per cent of the hundred would at
tain a proficiency of 70 per cent oa
over; an ’ I think I am generous in
my estimate at that.
1 was a high school graduate, stud
ied algebra, geometry, trigonometry,
chemistry-, botany, astronomy, geology
and a lot of such, and never once In
a business career of thirty years has
anything of these subjects been of any
use tg me either directly or Indirectly
(Jive a boy a thorough education, and
make it thorough, In spelling, defini
tion*. writing, geography, grammar,
arithmetic, and then teach him a
trade and you hav* a good self-sus
taining future cltlicn and one who
will be n credit to himself and hts
country. Out down on your high
schools and boost your grammar
schools This Is logic from a prftc
tbal man and will be viewed askance
by theorists nnd educators, but to my
mind docs not admit of argument. The
day Is not far distant when these
ideas will be Instituted and posterity
the better for it. p
