Thy glory faded gone, ,a
Thou representative of joy
And summer time that's done
Reminder of soft moonlight nights
Whennhours sped by on wings,
When lovelit eyes looked into mine;
What thoughts thy presence brings

And whispered soft and sweet
While hearts kept time to gentle

And hours sped by so feet!
And life held not a. single pang;

THE Ladies Of the Maccabees is
one of the largest fraternal in
surance organizations in the
country and sickness and death
among its members call for benefits
to be paid out of the treasury of the
order. The great organization is
entirely in the hands of women who
have SO successfully conducted its af-
fairs that among the secret orders
for women the Ladies of the Macca-
bees is regarded as a model. Among
the leaders of this great order is
Mrs. j. M. Powell of Kansas City,
Mo. She is a lady Of high INTEL
ligence and as lieutenant-commander
of the Kansas City lodge has the
welfare Of the organization more or
less in her keeping. She says: "In
my official capacity it is to my inter-
est to see that members OF our So
ciety are in the best possible physi-
cal health Clear Judgment prompts
her to recommend Wine of Cardui
to the members of her organization.
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1902-09-10

Wine Of Cardui has benefited
every woman who has taken it. Such
a remedy Is worthy every woinan's
confidence in the time Of sickness
when doctors fail and other medi-
cines do not bring the sufferer relief.
Wine of Cardui will cure any un-
complicated cases Of irregular pc
riods and bearing down pains. It is
valuable during pregnancy, at child
birth and during the change Of life.
1t is not a strong medicine but it
quickly relieves female troubles in an
easy and natural way. 1t strength
ems the nervous system, acts directly
on the genital organs and is the
finest tonic for women known to the
medical science.
IfMrs. Powell was cured by Wine
of Cardui and recommends il to
thousands Of her lodge members,
don't you think it is worth trial in
your home?
All druggists sell S1.00 bottles of
Wine Of Cardui.

Gazing with baby looks so wise

Dearer than you is none TO me,
Dearer than you there can be none;
Since in your laughing face see
Eyes that tell Of another one.

Driving the sleet OF the winter storms

But deep is the drifting tonight
Over the head of the other one
Hold me close you sagey stand
Watching the dying embers shine;
Then shall feel another hand
That nestled once in this hand of mine;
Poor little hand, so cold and chill,
Shut from the Light OF stars and sun,
Clasping the withered roses still
That hide the face OF the sleeping one
