“Feeling Fine”
The lady whose picture is printed above is Mrs.
Garold V. Payne, who lives on State Street in Lexing
ton, North Carolina. Mrs. Payne has taken CARDUI,
the woman’s tonic, of tyhich she /says: —
‘'Cardui is a perfectly splendid medicine. I
never did have anything to help me so quickly.
Some time ago I had an operation. I had been in
bad health for years and was frightfully run-down.
I had no appetite. I dragged around. Was irreg
ular and at times had a sinking, dragging-down
feeling which was very disturbing.
“A friend of mine suggested my trying CardnL
She said she took Cardui as a tonic every so often
to keep her in health, so my husband decided I
must try it He-.brought me home a bottle and I
began to take it After taking half a bottle I no
ticed I was eating more and feeling much better.
I took three bottles and at the end of that time
was feeling fine. My appetite was good. I was
strengthened to do my work and had become per
fectly regular.
“I have great faith in Cardui as a tonic, for in
my own case I have seen what it will do.”
Thousands of other women have written to tell of
the great benefits that they have obtained from the
use of Cardui in many common forms of womanly ills.
Cardui is a purely vegetable, mild remedv for
women’s ills. Contains no harmful or habit-forming
drugs. One of the chief ingredients of Cardui has
been tested by use and recommended by scientific
medical authorities in the treatment of female troubles
for over 600 years!
Most druggists carry Cardui in stock, in $1 bottles
with full directions for use, and every woman who suf
fers from female ailments should try this well-known
remedy.

GEORGIA NEGROES
ARE ENTERING
A NEW ERA
By R. B. ELEAZER
ATLANTA, Ga.—That the ne
groes of Georgia are making rapid
progress economically and other
wise was evident to the thousands
who visited the colored exhibit at
the Southeastern Fair in this city
last week. For the first time the
management of the fair had made
provisions for the colored people to
be represented, erecting a big tent
for their exhibits, offering prizes
aggregating $1,200, and holding out
hope of a building next year, pro
vided the present experiment were
successful.
Right well did the negroes re
spond, Overflowing the space al
lotted them with an exhibit of
farm, home and school products
that would do credit to any group in
the state. The fair management
was enthusiastic in its praise. "This
is one of the most creditable ex
hibits at the fair,” said Col. F. J.
Paxon, chairman of\the executive
committee. “We hava heard noth
ing but favorable comment on it.
The management is greatly inter
ested and hopes to have a building
for tho colored people next year.”
Thirteen counties were represent
ed, Chatham, Clarke. Cowsta, Ful
ton, Jackson, Liberty, Monroe, New
ton, Polk, Rockdale, Troup, Ware
and Washington, as well as all the
public schools of Atlanta and Ful
ton county, a number of private
schools, and two thousand individ
uals. Houston county forwarded an
exhibit also, but it was somehow
lost in transit. All the counties rep
resented are those in which negro
farm or home demonstration agents
are at work, and the exhibits grew
largely out of their efforts. The
display was a remarkable testi
monial to the value of the work
of these agents in promoting higher
standards of efficiency and better
living conditions.
So many and varied were the
products displayed that only the
barest mention is possible. The
schools sent drawings, pictures,
maps, posters, essays, historical
sketches, model homes and farms,
basketry, aprons, dresses, table
covers, patch work, cut outs, clay
modols, and ever so much more that
goes to make up modern education.
Through all the school exhibits the
health interest ran and not one was
without some attractive lesson in
personal cleanliness, senitatien,
wholesome food and fresh air. In
evidence also was the patriotic
note—hand-made booklets of Am
erican history, posters illustrating
the development of the flag, mot
toes. "The Southeastern States a
Good Place for Homes,” even “It's
Great to be a Georgian.”
COUNTY EXHIBITS WERE
EXCELLENT AND VARIED
The county exhibits were more
varied still. There were all sorts
of farm and garden products, cot*
ton, corn, peanuts, soy beans, sor
ghm, alfalfa, tobacco, oats, Imy.
fodder, melons, potatoes, tomatoes,
bdans, apples, peaches, pears, home
cured bacon and ham. "Every farm
should feed itself," the agents are
preaching, and the farmers are be
ginning to take notice. The displays
of corn sent by the club boys were
especially fine.
The work of the women .was
much in evidence and most credit
able. There were rows on rows of
canned vegetables and fruits, beau
tifully packed and perfectly "pro
cessed.” The most unlikely re
sources had been utilized to make
the homes more livable beautiful
baskets of pine needles, pine cones,
sweet gum burs, corn shucks, wil
low twigs, tasteful rugs and even
attractive suits apd dresses made
of fertilizer bags. There were real
works of arts with the needle,
dresses, spreads, table covers, baby
things, in bewildeping variety.
There were home-woven chair
bottoms and mats; purses, hand
bags and pillows made of auto
tires; hats plaited from straw and
shucks; even a home-made fireless
cooker and in Iceless refrigerator.
All these wore the work of club
women organized and trained by
the home demonstration agents.
And there at the fair were the
agents still at work, telling the
visitors how to do It.
Inquiry of the farm agents re
vealed the fact that they are cen
tering on a number of essentials—
better farm methods, legumes for
conservation of the soil, permanent
pastures and home-grown food sup
ply. A white agent who has observ
ed the colored work at close hand
for several years testified to the
good results in enthusiastic terms.
■‘‘There Is another important re
sult, also,” he said. “This farm and
home demonstration work, more
than anything else, tends to keep
the negroes on the soil. They learn
to farm more profitably, to live
more coffortably, and they have no
disposition to leave. In my county
thero are 215 negro -land owners
and not one has gone North.

deep interest in the subject, the
best method to care for the teeth
of sohool children is being sought
by the New York Association for
Improving the Condition of the
Poor. The association began with
3,900 youngsters in the public
sehools four years ago. At this
time 30 per cent of the children
examined needed dental work. To
day this percentage is only 49. The
number of cases requiring extrac
tion has been reduced 63 per cent,
and the need for fillings has gone
down 77 per cent. During the first
year 14 children out or every hun
dred got diplomas for clean
mouths; during the last year the
diplomas ran 59 to the hundred.
“Communities are only begin
