your VIM Of Cardui and only needed to
take three bottles when l was fully re-
covered"
aaTlHEN Miss Rose Owens, who
has a responsible position in
~ the Government service at
Washington, D. c., decided to
try Wine of Cardui, she made a wise
choice. Over a million women have
been relieved of female weakness by this
same Wine Of Cardui. 1t is not a
strong medicine but may be taken every
day in tie year by any woman with
benefit. 1t does not force results, but
corrects arrangements of the menstrual
organs. 1t strengthens the nervous
system, gives tone to the bodily func-
tons, acts directly on the genital
organs, and is the finest tonic for wo-
men known to the science of medicine.

ing the advice which was freely given
her by the Ladies' Advisory Depart
ment. Miss Owens was cured without
advice by just buying a $1.O bottle of
Wine Of Cardui from her druggist and
taking this great medicine in the pri-
vacy Of her home. No doctors ex-
animation, treatment or advice is nee
essary. You have read what these two
cured women have written. Is this not
enough to lead you to determine to be
rid Of suffering?

A Eight Heart Under Failure.

A light heart under failure is con-
dition of success which may be written
down as an essential. No one should
need to be warned against the deleteri-
Gus effects of the blues. Nothing dead
ems the heart of enterprise or unstrings
the nerves of action like a fit of the
blues. In one of those beautiful pray
ers which Robert Louis Stevenson
wrote for us in his Samoan household
he prayed for courage and gayety
and a quiet mind" A man who backs
UP his brains with these three gifts
has all the odds in his favor. 1t is next
to impossible that he should fail in
what he undertakes to accomplish.
Gayety is the essence of power. What
is there in failure or two to cry about
or in a dozen failures when you know
you are bound to get there ?-Richard

Met Hi. Match.

Some years ago a steamer touched
at Colombo to coal, and Norman
went aboard and asked Sir William
Gregory to buy catseye for 5000
rupees. 1t was worth 10000 rupees,
but the distressed Moorman's father
was in Jail, and he wanted to buy him
out. Gregory listened to the old story
and then offered the willy dealer a
rupee for the gem. The man went off
seemingly offended, but presently re-
turned and offered the gem for 1000
rupees. NO; rupee" repeated the
Irishman. AS the four hours passed
the Norman came back at regular in
teryals, with a lower offer each time
5000, 1000, 1000; then 500, $50, 10O,i
and so on-tiH finally, as the steamer
was about to start, he handed over the
catseye and took Gregory's rupee!
For once in a way the Norman dealer
had met his match.

Testing Love.

& Southern children have a very pretty
way of telling fortunes" with the dod-
der vine, or love vine. as they call it. A
piece is broken off and twisted around
the head three times, then dropped on
a bank behind them. If the sweetheart
is true. it grows. If it dies, he or she is
false.
The mullen stalk is also used to learn
the consistency or the fickleness of the
lover. The stalk is broken, but not de-
tached, and If it continues to grow the
absent one is constant, or vice versa.

we1linston,s Sense of pntv

A most interesting anecdote of Wei
llngton. Illustrating the high sense of
duty in all things, is told on the au-
thority of the dukes housekeeper at
Walmer castle. The huge blue book of
500 pages on the studies and discipline
OF the University of Oxford had been
sent to him as chancellor. He was en-
gagged on it the night before his death.
He was going to bed, as it was late.
He left the blue book, with his pencil
IN it, and said to Lord Charles Welles-
ley, who was with him, 81 shall never
get through it, Charles, but l must
work on."

An Irish Fishing story.

There is good fishing story in an
Irish contemporary. Two enthusiastic
anglers arranged fishing match to de-
eide the respective merits of the worm
and the minnow as bait. For hours
they sat patiently on a bank without
getting SO much as nibble. At last
the proprietor of the worm suddenly
said that he had got a bite, and, jerk
ing his line out of the water, discoy
cred at the end of it the other mans
minnow, which, having by this time
grown hungry, had devoured his worm.
