BAzAARS OF CAIRO
Picturesque Vendors in Labyrinth
 of Treasures.
Merchants of These Shops Are the Most Patient in Old World Temptation to Buy Sends Tour
 ist Away PenniIess.

Cairo, Egypt.-The bazaars of Cairo are network of narrow lanes, turn ing and crossing one another in so be- wildering manner that the stranger would lose his way in them inside of five minutes walking. The only re- hinder of our own world" writes an English visitor in the Queen, ''is the tourist. Even he (and she) has native dragoman dressed in the beau tiful silks of the country
 Tt is amazing what quantities of their ware these men of the bazaara get into the small space at their dis posal. And they are so keen on their business. They bargain with such zest.
 There are booths of every sort and description, from those where one sees priceless silk carpets from Per sia to those where are heaped the merest trifes, and seated in the mid dle of each booth (when not engaged in bargaining or ingratiating himself to possible buyers) sits the owner murmuring the attributes of Allah to his amber beads or smoking a cig arette in contemplative silence.
 One lovely part to wander in Is the brass bazaar. It seems one can get everything conceivable in lovely carved brass while some are beauti- fully inlaid with silver. This is a very chic bazaar, and one is served with coffee and Turkish delight
 Tn one part they make the queer est things-scenes done in rough ap- pliQue work on coarse stuff. There they sit tailorwise on the floor of their stalls, stitching away with the great est diligence, and when any one stops to look, lauding up their wares to the skies. They are very good natured in the way they will show their wares, even though you tell them you have no intention of buying. Of course, they do it in the hope that you may be tempted to buy something, but they are certainly patient. It is of course one of their famous charac- teristics in business-enormou pa tience.
 Then there are the stalls of little trifles, quaint and charming and most fascinating, though of little value. There is a tiny model of a mummy case about half an inch long, which in spite of its smallness opens and behold! inside funny little doll sup posed to be a model of a mummy And here is Moses in the bulrushes. and the lotus flower on every con ceivable thing-hatpins, brooches. charms and so on

Carrsyille, Ky.-Mrs. F. E. Cossey, of this town, says: T had been af- ficted for nearly six years with wom- anly troubles, and would suffer so much. every month!
 It would take a. book to tell what l have suffered in that time.

 All my friends know how bad was, and how Cardui has helped me in many different ways"
 Cardui is made from purely vege- table ingredients, which act particu- larly on the delicate womanly system, building up health and strength where it is most needed.
 During the past 50 years it has helped thousands of ladies, afflicted with just such troubles as those from which Mrs. Cossey suffered.
 It is therefore remedy that you can feel confidence in Its merit is guaranteed by years of success.

If one can afford 1t, It Is good plan to take plenty of money to the bazaars; but if, on the other hand, one has to re- strict the amount to be spent, it is as well to empty all extra cash out of ones purse, or the temptation will certainly be too great, and the extra will melt away.
