MRS, McGILL
BROKE DOWN
Gives the Real Facts In Regard to
Her Case and Tells How She
Suffercd.

Jonesboro, Ark suffered a CON-
nlete break down in health, some time
ago" writes Mrs. A. McGill, from this
place. 81 was very weak and could
not do any work. l tried different
remedies, but they did me no good.
One day, got bottle OF Cardui. It
did me so much good, was surprised,
and took some more.
Before took Cardui, | had headache
and backache, and sometimes l would
cry for hours. Now am over all that,
and can do all kinds of housework. I
think it is the greatest medicine on
earth"
In the past fifty years, thousands OF
ladies have written, like Mrs. McGill,
to tell of the benefit received from
Cardui.
Such testimony, from earnest women,
surely indicates the great value OF this
tonic remedy, for diseases peculiar to
women. Are you a sufferer? Yes?
Cardui is the medicine you need.
We urge you to try 1t.

Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means so much
to me that for the sake of other suffer
ing women am willing to make my
trouble public so you may publish
this letter. Mrs. CHAs. BARCLAY,
RED, Graniteville, vt.
No other medicine for woman's Ills
has received such widespread and un-
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such record
of cures as has Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
For more than 80 years it has been
curing womans ills such as intlamma-
ton, liberation, tibroid tumors, irreg-
ularities, periodic pains and nervous
prostration, and it is unequalled for
carving women safely through the
period Of change of life.
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass,
invites all sick women to write
her for advice. Her advice is free

Good Word For Jim Crow.

Farmers are finding out that the crow
&c nv no means the black-hearted ROD

IS well enough to discourage his tondnesS

This IS what an Iowa farmer says aooul

crows:
Auy farmer that has cultivated the ac-
ouaintance of the crow and studied his
habits as have cannot fail to commend
the legislature for killing the oil. =,

vest the melons by taking the insects and
worms disturbed, but he paid no atten-
ton to the melons.
He was not only an insect and worm
eater. but the equal of any cat as a NOUS
err On one occasion, when | removed a
board living on the ground about a rod
from the barn, a mouse ran from under II
toward the barn. The crow was Sitting
on tree five rods away and thirty feet
above the ground. That mouse never
reached the barn; the crow landed on
him before he got there.
Since then | have often seen crows,
while flying over fields, especially re-
Gently harvested grain fields or meadows,
suddenly dart to the ground and rise
again with something in their beaks,
which believe was a mouse, carry it to
some perch, and devour it.
If Iowa was deprived of her crows, it
is more than probable that field-mice
would multiply so fast that in few years
they would become an intolerable pest,
seriously injuring the crops and destroy

APPLE SAUCE BAKED IN THE
OVEN.
BY Rachel II. ColWelI, Head of Domes.
tic Science Department OF West
Virginia University.

The apples should be rather tart,
but II It Is not possible to get them
lemon juice may be substituted, using
from a teaspoon to a tablespoon to
each lbs, or quart of apples. Pare,
quarter and slice apples and measure
or weigh them. To each pound weight
of apples allow one-third pound or one
third Qusrt Of sugar.
Kind of Dish In Which to Bake Apples.
The flavor Is much better II they
can be baked in an earthenware dish.
The baking dishes which are to be
found in the market NOW with the
white inside and the brown outside
have the advantage that the fruit can
be placed on the table in the dish in
which it was cooked. II the earthen
ware is not available, use granite
dish. A dish that has a cover or can
be covered gives fruit with the rich
est flavor.
Method of Cooking tho Fruit.
II the dish In which the fruit is to
be baked is first creased with very
little butter it will be found easier to
clean. Place apples, sliced, in the dish.
II 1t is desired to keep the fruit
whole add the sugar and enough wa
ter to cover the fruit. Bake on an
asbestos lid in a moderate oven. The
temperature should be such that the
hand can be held in the oven very
easily while counting twenty. Cover
and allow to cook slowly until the ap
pies are soft, removing the cover
about ten minutes before the fruit Is
done.
II It is desired to make apple sauce.
that is to have the fruit cooked up, do
not add the sugar until the fruit is
soft, and use not more than half cup
of water to a quart, or two pounds of
the fruit. Cook until soft with the
cover on and then add the sugar, stir.
ring it in well, and cook for from five
to ten minutes.
Apple sauce cooked in this way has
flavor all its own, and the color is
very rich, particularly when the fruit
Is cooked In the sugar.
