He Worried The Iudae.


A story was recently told of the elder
Judge Peckham. father of the supreme
court justice In the early days Of
dentistry q hickory plug was put into
the cavity TO fill the space where a
tooth ought to be. This plug had to
be gently pounded into its desired po-
sition. The old judge was somewhat
addicted to strong language. and when
the dentist began his wor kthe judge
INDUCED in some classic comment. AS
the tapping of the plug continued be
threw all dignity to the four winds of
heaven. and his language became de-
cidedly more forcible than elegant"
When, however, he arose from the
chair after what seemed to him an
interminabe period of agony he pulled
out all the stops In his vocabulary for
a gr9nd climax. The impression on
his listener seems to have been deep
and lasting. AS the judge passed out
the dentist grimly remarked to a wait
ing patient
"Wasn't it beautiful It wasn't real
~ necessary to pound half so long.
but did so enjoy his infection that l
almost pounded the hickory plug into
splinters. Wonderful command Of
language the judge hasw-Case and

1t is claimed that Washington and
Colorado are doing excellent work I'M
der law which allows the convicts to
build the roads under hire to the
counties. Not only is 1t good thing
for the county, but it is better thing
for the convicts. Their health is bet
ter, and under the system of opera
ton they become better men morally.
The convicts are pledged to work
without guarded supervision. A brok-
en- pledge means their return to the
prison and a life from which no pun
ishment is spared. AS a result the
men are better from a healthy stand
point and the state does not lose as
many by escapes as Michigan loses
under the operation of the old law.
Last session the Michigan legislature
passed law permitting the convicts
to be used in this manner.

 GETS RESULTS
When the Doctor Failed to Help Mrs. MOncrief, She Helped
 Herself With Cardui.

Belton, Tex.-In a letter written from this place, Mrs. Ethel Moncrief says: "I suffered with womanly troubles ever since l first entered wo- manhood. The doctors failed to help so l began with Cardui. From the first, I could see good results, and I kept on taking it. I was relieved of all my dreadful suffering. Cardui has built up my system, and my friends are all surprised to see the good results I obtained. Cardui is as good a doctor as any woman needs. It can't be Leat. l cannot praise Cardui too highly"
 For more than half century. Cardui has been used successfully to prevent unnecessary pains caused by womanly troubles, such as headache, backache. side ache, dragging sensations, etc.
 It also acts as general tonic, for the weak, tired. worn-out womanly system.
 Whether seriously sick, or simply weak and ailing, take Cardui.
 It helped million others.
 It will help you, too.
