perous. He has no use for Mr.. Roosevelt,
and pronounces him unbalanced. which
mental deficiency was caused by the heat
Of Africa. II is too bad that men With
moral vision are called mentally unhal-
anced.

any better, and that I would have to
have an operation, or / would have a
cancer.
l went to the hospital, and they
operated on me, but I got no better.
They said medicines would do me
no good, and I thought I would have
to die.
At last, I tried Cardui, and I began
to improve, so I continued using it.
Nov. I am well, and a do my own
work. I don't feel any pains. Cardui
worked like a charm"
There must be merit in this purely

The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
i That is why physicians make such a
careful examination when you apply for

Kidney disease is so dangerous. that it
is a bad mistake to overlook or neglect it,
and if pain in the back, recurring head
aches, or a fretful, nervous, tired condition
makes you suspect some kidney trouble,
take the trouble to watch the kidney secre-

preparing a strong memorial to place
before the legislature in behalf of the
rural schools of the state. Among
other things the legislature will be
asked to cut the fertilizer tax now
