HE world is full of active men who
 \ direct the affairs of state, carry on 1 commerce and pursue the professions of science and art, but the perfectly healthy woman is far too scarce There is crying need for sturdy mothers and active women who make themselves felt in the home and out of it. Women should really prepare themselves to undertake life's responsibili- ties. It is not strange that sickness is so common among women. The laborious duties of the housewife, coupled with the care of young children, are too much for the average woman whose delicately poised organs are easily upset. And women's s natural modesty keeps them from com blaming about matters connected with the organs of generation. They will not tell the story of their suffering to doctor and they abhor local examinations and surgical operations. In this way thousands and tnorssn6a of women become invalids and the ramia who is healthy and fit for every dsty is aasd to find. If every woman k:lsw that Wine of Cardui invariably re- lisvcs Sasaaia weakness when taken as di- rec%ed there would be fswer sufferers.

THE FOOT AND MOUTH DISEAsl

1t will undoubtedly be quite soon a matter
OF more or less anxiety to all cattle owners
when they realize what a serious disease is in
chusetts and Vermont. 1t is known as the
foot and mouth disease. one of the most con-
tagious diseases known. 1t can be carried in
the clothing or by the hands in milking. Ami
m ais may be infected by coming in direct con,
to the virus in the stables, in the field and
along the road, in cars or any place where a
diseased animal has been. Milk in the raw
state may transmit 1T to animals fed with 1t.
Some say the virus may, live in stables for a
we'll. The disease first shows itself as fever,
with much difficulty in swallowing. followed
by an eruption and blisters in the mouth
which become redd ened, the mouth is kept
disease usually runs it's course from eight to
IA days; one or more feet are usually affected.
In the case OF dairy COWS the milk is seriously
diminished in quantity and is unfit for any
use. There is nothing to prevent an animal
from having the disease several times after
an interval of a few months after a previous
attack. Its extreme contagiOusness makes it
one of the most difficult to eradicate. England
has already prohibited any Importation of
cattle from any of the New. England States,
tries. The United Stat es government au-
thorities have now taken charge of the mat.
ter under DR. Salmon, head OF the Bure au of
Animal Industry. With so to 100 assist ants.
Killing every diseased or Infected animal
When we remember that it cost the English
government 81 ZOO. 900 a few years ago to stamp
it out, and France $8,0OO,0OO, we can perhaps
realize what q serious matter it is when it is
already spread into three states. Every cat
tie owner sho uld know the symptoms and
speedily call veterinary should any of his
stock show any OF those symptoms.
