PRIMA DONNA RODE WITH PUP
IN BAGGAGE CAR TO ATLANTA

Grace Drew, prima donna of 1.-The
Chocolate Soldier" rode in the baggage
car from Chattanooga to Atlanta Sum
day, while en- route to this city. When
she boarded the train with her famous
dog, Chow, she was told the dog would
have to go into the baggage car.
One of the trainmen told the actress
that a plot had been laid to steal the
dog. Much alarmed, Miss Drew got into
the baggage car with the dog and held
him in her lap until the train reached
the city.
Chow is a remarkable dog in many
respects. and has far and away the long
est and bluest blooded pedigree of any
canine in the world. For centuries. it is
declared, Chow's ancestors were the
household pets of the royal family of
China, who fairly worshiped and idoliz-
ed them. Outside of the royal family,
no one else was permitted to breed the
dogs under punishment of. death. When
Pekin was captured and located by the
allied armies, Chow's grandfather and
grandmother were found in the boudoir
of the empress dowager in the finer and

used it and know what it will do"
When a woman is i'll, the real trouble
is generally some arrangement of her
constitution, and the headache. and back
ache, ETC., are merely symptoms Of her
womanly weakness. The proper treat
ment, therefore, is Cardui, the woman's
tonic No other medicine, or tonic, has
exactly the same results as Cardui No
other has the record of so many years of
successful use in cases of woman's all
ments.
If Mrs. Garrett had taken Cardui soon
er, she might have been spared the long
sickness and much suffering A few
doses of Cardui at the right time will
often save serious suffering and prevent
long sickness. Don't delay. Begin to
take Cardui at once.

Cut and stack the corn as soon

Harvest the potatoes before

Is any ancient reason for celebrating the
58th anniversary. for instance, as golden
weddings, the queens jubilee and the

Missionary society.
The 18th chapter OF Levitfcus is
doubtless the real reason for the general
observation OF the 5oth year. Aside from
that 1t is great thing to have lived %
years OF life together. OF to have guided

letter told OF that girls ambitions. She

for her parents TO consent, The letter
said: know that have talent. Why

I do not know exactly what the reply
contained, for the girl showed it to no
one. but she began TO study, and she
certainly needed an education, TO ut her
self for some real work in life. Misfor-
tunes came to the family and she took
up the burdens cheerfuily. but she never
quit her studies

but instead OF doing so at the expense
OF those dear ones in the home, she is
using them as her captains, and right

the letter that showed her the nobility
