Chauncey. l.. Wood, democratic
candidate for governor, addressed a
fair sized crowd at the opera house
Saturday night. His view point
was that of the old time democrat,
merely "agin' their ancient enemy.
He viewed with alarm as usual.
everything the republicans have done
most recently-while forgetting
all about the terrible things they
did ten or twenty years ago, as seen
then through the democratic eye
but which are o accepted laws.
Mr. Wood is a pioneer citizen of
western South Dakota. and is we'll
spoken of as a man by those who
know him.

would like more light on how it was
brought about. He says:
The denomination of Browne and
twenty-five other Lorimer Demo-
Gratis in Illinois cannot be accounted
for by any rules ordinarily applied.
1t will require an examination into
the situation in each district to as
certain how the Democrats Of Hill

CORDUROY.
Origin Of the Word One Of the Puzzles
Of Our Language.

Origin Of the Word Ono Of the Puzzles
Of Our Language.
There is a small class of words
and phrases in our language which
are of French appearance, but of
English invention, and corduroy"
is an example. The kings cord
suggests a fabric of some magnif-
cence originating in a monarchical
connection, and yet the name is un-
known in French. The corde du roi,
which looks like the natural French
source for an Anglicized "cordu-
roy" is simply an imaginative
phrase. The French language
knows it not. Sir James Murray
points this out in his great diction-
airy and adds that not only has no
such name ever been used in
French, but, on the contrary, a list
of articles manufactured at Sens in
1907 enumerated elofes de cotton,
fulaines. kingscordes. where the
word is evidently borrowed from
the English. there being no French
equivalent.
The corduroy which is so famil-
i"r IA part of the clothing material
of navvies and laborers and men
engaged in rough. hard work may
W its name to the imagination of
tho inventor, who may have
thought to recommend his stuff by
the bcstowaI on it of a name which.
while indicating in part the nature
Of the material, would also suggest
an origin Of some magnificence, or,
as it has been suggested. the inven-
tor may himself have borne the
English name of Corderoy, just as
Macintosh gave his name to the
waterproof material he introduced.
When Sir James Murray, with all
the resources Of the Oxford diction-
arv material and staff at his dis
roeal. is unable to offer any solu-
ton of the problem. the question Of
tho words origin may be regarded
as one Of the ~insolvable puzzles of
tho language.
The curious thing is, says a
writer in the London Globe, that in
all the researches which have been
made for the dictionary the word
corduroy" has not been found by
some years also early a date as the
simple "cords." Under either name
the fabric seems to have been un-
known before the second half of
the eighteenth century. when vel
veteen cords, fancy cords. ETC., soon
became recognized trade terms.
The strength and serviceableness
of the material quickly made it
popular with those to whom such
qualities in clothing were Of the
first Importance. All men, whether
laborers or huntsmen or the like,
who worked hard or who took ex-
ercise involving much wear and
tear, must have welcomed the
strongly ribbed fabric.

word for Cardui," writes Mrs. Viola
Baker, of this place.

health. was so weak and nervous that
was not able to do my homework.
"My husband bought me one bottle Of
Cardui, the woman'S tonic. took il ac-
cording to directions and now ! am in
good health.
al think Cardui is fine tonic for weak
women"
And you are not fine only lady who
thinks so, Mrs. Baker.
Thousands, like you, have written to
fell of the wonderful benefit Cardui has
been to them.
Cardui contains no minerals, or other
powerful drugs. 1t contains no glyCeTin
or other Misunderstanding ingredients.
II is Just a pure, natural extract, OF
natural vegetable herbs, that have been
found to regulate the womanly functions
and strengthen the female system.
All druggists sell Cardui.
