FRICHTFUL
SUFFERING OF
A OMA
Mrs. Garrett, Of VandervOOrt, De-
scribes How She Suffered and
How She Col Relief.

V~andervoort, Ark.-Mrs. Dora Gar
rett, of this place, says: II suffered
every month, for a year, and got
weaker every day. My head and back
would ache so bad, l could not sit up.
l tried all kinds Of medicines, and
they all failed to cure me. Then my
mother told me to take Cardui. When
| had taken one bottle, l was able to
do all Of my work. l can recommend
Cardui to be the greatest woman's
remedy in the world. l have used 1t
and know what 1t will do"
When a woman is Ill, the real trou'
BILE is generally some arrangement Of
her constitution, and the headache,
and ~backache, etc, are merely symp-
toms Of her womanly weakness. The
proper treatment, therefore, is Carduir
the woman's tonic. No other medi'
cine, or tonic, has exactly the same
results as Cardui. No other has the
record Of SO many years of successful
use In cases OF womanly ailments.
II Mrs. Garrett had taken Cardu'
sooner, she might have been spared
the long sickness and much suffering
A few doses of Cardui at the righ'
time will often save serious suffering
and prevent a long sickness. Don
delay. Begin to take Cardui at once.

KILL BABIES WITH KINDNESS
Day Nursery Matron Says They Are
Daudled Until They Die.

New York.-"American babies are be-
ing loved to death. They are kissed and
Rugged and daudled until they die. 1t
doesn't make a baby happy to coddle
him. 1t makes him miserable. If moth
ers would consider that a baby has
rights the same as a grown person, there
would be fewer sick babies and much of
this harmful affection would be aban-
doned."
Mrs. Mary Hines, matron of the Sun,
nyside Day Nursery in Boston, makes
this statement and DR., Walter Bensel,
superintendent of the department OF
child hygiene for the board Of health:
declares that it is true.

Chorus.
The Corn Song. (Extracts.)

Heap high the farmers wintry hoard! Heap high the golden. corn! No richer gift has Autumn poured From out her lavish horn! Let other lands, exulting, glean The apple from the pine, The orange from it's glossy green The cluster from the vine. We better love the hardy gift Our rugged wales beStOw, To cheer us when the storm shall drift Our harvest-fields with snow. We dropped the seed OCT hill and plain Beneath the sun of May, And frightened from our sprouting
 grain
 The robber crows away. And now, with autumn's moonlit eyes, Its harvest-time has come, We plucked away the frosted leaves, And bear the treasure home. Let earth withhold her goodly root, Let mildew blight the rye, Give to the worm the orchards fruit, The wheat-f1eld to the fly. But let the good old crop adorn The hills our fathers trod; Still let us, for his golden corn, Send up our thanks to God!
 John G. Whittier.

The Pumpkin. (Extracts.)

An! on Thanksgiving Day, when from
 East and from West, From North and from South come the
 pilgrim and guest. When the gray-haired New-England- CT sees round his board The old broken links of affection re-
 stored. When the care-wearied man sees his
 mother once more, And the worn matron smiles where
 the girl smiled before, What moistens the lip and what brightens the eye? What calls back the past, like the
 rich pumpkin pie? O,-fruit loved of boyhood!-the old
 days recalling. When wood-grapes were purpling and
 brown nuts were falling! When wild, ugly faces we carved in its
 skin. Glaring out through the dark with a
 candle within When we laughed round the carn-heap
 with hearts all in tune, Our chair a broad pumpkin.-Our lant-
 ern the moon. Telling tales of the fairy who travelled
 like steam. In a pumpkin-shell coach, with two
 rats for her team.
 John G. Whittier.

ing Day.

And when Massasoit, the Sachem, sat down with his hundred braves, And ate of the varied riches of gar den and woods and waves, And looked on the granaried harvest, with a blow on his brawny chest, He muttered, ''The good Great Spirit loves His white children best!''

The First Thanksgiving Day.

The First Thanksgiving Day.
 A. D. 1922. And now," said the Governor, gazing
 abroad on the piled-up store Of the sheayes that dotted the clear
 ing a] covered the meadows Iris meet that we render praises be-
 cause of this yield of grain; Iris meet that the Lord of the harvest
 be thanked for His sun and
 rain.
 And therefore, I, William Bradford,
 (by the grace of God to-day, And the franchise of this good people)
 Governor of Plymouth, say, Through virtue of vested power--ye
 small gather with one accord, And hold, in the month of November,
 thanksgiving unto the Lord. "He hath granted us peace and plenty,
 and the quiet we've sought So
 long;
 He hath thwarted the willy savage and
 kept him from wrack and
 wrong;
 And unto our feast the Sachem shall
 be bidden, that he may know We worship his own Great Spirit who
 maketh the harvests grow. "So shoulder, your matchlocks, mas
 ters; there is hunting of all de-
 grees;
 And fishermen. take your tackle, and
 SCOUT for spoil the seas; And ma1dens and danes of Plymouth, your delicate crafts employ, To honor our first Thanksgiving, and
 make it a feast of joy! "We fail of the fruits and dainties-
 we fail of the old home cheer; An, these are the lightest losses, may
 hap, that befall us here; But see, in our open clearings, how . golden the melons lie; Enrich them with sweets and spices,
 and give us the pumpkin pie!" So, bravely the preparations went on
 for the autumn feast; The deer and the bear were slaughter
 ed; wild game from the greatest
 to least
 Was heaped in the colony cabins;
 brown home-brew served for wine,
 And the plum and the grape of the
 forest, for orange and peach
 and pine.
 At length came the day appointed the
 snow had begun to fall, But the clang from the meeting-house
 belfry rang merrily over all, AHu SuIlHloHeu lHe IOlk or PlymOuln,
 who hastened with glad accord, To listen to Elder Brew ster as he fer
 vently thanked the Lord. In his seat sat Governor Bradford ::
 men, matrons, and maidens fair Miles Standish and all his soldiers, with
 corselet and sword, were there; And Sobbing and tears and gladness
 had each in it's turn the sway, For the grave of the sweet Rose Stan

Exmoor Harvest Song.

From Lorna Doone' The wheat, oh the wheat, 'tis the rip ening of the wheat All the day it has been hanging down it's heavy head, Rowing over on our bosoms With beard of red: Iris the harvest, and the value makes the labor sweet. The barley, oh the barley, and the barley is in prime All the>day it has been rustling with it's bristles brown. Waiting with it's beard allowing, till it can be mown! Iris the harvest, and the barley must abide it's time. The oats, oh the oats, 'tis the ripen- ing of the oats! All the day they have been dancing with their flakes of white, Waiting for the girding-hook, to be the nags' delight: 'Tis the harvest, let them dangle in their skirted coats.
 Chorus. The corn, oh the corn, the yellow mellow corn! Thanks for the corn, with our bread upon the board! So shall we acknowledge it, before we reap the morn. With our hands to heaven, and our knees unto the Lord.

Got Too

L. l.. Killeen, manager of the Men
er-Rosenbloom clothing store at Sioux
Falls is a patient in a hospital for treat
ment for injuries received while being
initiated into the order of Owls Thurs
day evening.
KiIleen was one of the members Of
the large class that was taken into the
Owls Thursday evening. He was one
of the victims that was picked out to
receive the work, and it is claimed that
he got everything that was coming and
then some.
To u member of the deg-ee team
had been delegated the task Of using
the patent spanker on the victim. To
add to the impressiveness of this part
Of the program the man with the
spanker reversed the instrument and
instead of using the padded side the
solid side which contained a blank
cartridge was used.
simultaneously with the explosion of
the cartridge there was a yell of pain
from the victim. It was soon evident
that the man was severally injured and
the initiation was brought to a stand
still. He was taken to the hospital and
the wound dressed. Every effort is
being made to prevent blood poisoning.
