Do you know l can't tell you how glad I am that you find so much in Francis to like; indeed, l am delighted" Still studying me atten- lively, he musingly reached for fresh light. In point of fact, Lightnut, l am free to say I hope the intimacy begun between you two will grow clos CT It would be laundering good thing for Francis and great comfort to me"
 And, by love, he smiled at me-a devilish pleasant smile!
 So just leaned forward and made a go:
 Thanks awfully; and-er-by the way Then I stuck, boggled wildly an instant and went on; That is to say, this intimacy, you know-has it been too short to justify" gulped. "Er-would you be willing to trust" And I lost the dashed idea again, floundered a bit and took another shy: "Oh, l say, you know. have l your permission to speak to Frances-er- you know?"

By love, he almost gushed, You're not joking now, are you?" He peered anxiously into my face No, by George, l believe you really mean it," And he went to pumping like mad. How awfully good of ou-self-sacrihcing is the word, Are you quite sure you don't mind?"
 "Mind?" By love, I think I looked what felt at such dashed silly question.

But Pugsley says the rule yaries-quite often varies, Any, how. I felt so eratitied that l had talk on the honorable course and spoken to her father-uHderstand so many do not at all, you know. As it was, 1t gave me quite a comfortable glow Of nrjde. and l reflected how much bet ter it always is to follow the wise dictates of your whats-its name.

Presently I got in a word;

CARDUI WORKED

After Operation Failed to Help,
Cardui Worked Like a Charm.

Jonesville, S. CT suffered with
womanly trouble" writes Mrs. J. S.
Kendrick, in a letter from this place,
"and at times, could not bear to stand
on my feet The doctor said would
never be any better, and that would
have to have an operation, or would
have cancer.
went to the hospital, and they oper.
ated on me, but 1 got no better. They
said medicines would do me no good,
and I thought would have to die.
At last tried Cardui, and began to
improve, so continued using it. Now,
I am well, and can do my own work.
I don't feel any pains.
Cardui worked like charm"
There must be merit in this purely
vegetable, tonic remedy, for women
Cardui-for it has been in successful
use for more than so years, for the
treatment of womanly weakness and
disease.
Please try it, for your troubles.

GEORGIA'S WOMEN LAWYERS
WILL ASK FOR RECOGNITION
FiQht in Their Behalf viii
Be Resumed

Atlanta, May 27.--It begins to look
as if there is going to be another
fight at the coming session of the leg
islature for the admission of women
to the practice of law in Georgia.
While Mrs. Minnie Anderson Hale,
who stirred up the row last year by
trying to secure admission to the bar,
failed in her effort, and has since de-
cided she is glad she did, others are
coming on to take her place.
Two or three women are now at
tending law schools in Georgia and
are preparing to graduate this sum
mer. And when they do they are go
ing to make a direct set at Georgia
Legislators, it is stated, for the right
to practice in the Georgia courts.
DR.. George Brown, one of the rep
resentatives from Fulton county, an
nounces that he is ready to come to
their aid.
He thinks Georgia should be as pro-
gressive as other states in this mat
ter, and he proposes to push the bill
for all it is worth at the coming SEES
sion 1t failed last year by very
small vote, lacking only eight or ten
votes of the required constitutional
majority in the house, and DR.. Brown
believes there will be no trouble get
ting it through this time.
The action of the house in defeating
the bill was reconsidered, so that il
is still on the calendar and can be
brought up for consideration durins
the session 1t has a favorable report
from the committee and all it needs t.
get it up for consideration is sufti.
cient influence. 1t is said the womer
interested will take care of that.
1t will be interesting to know wha
position Hon. Joe Hill Hall of Bib
proposes to take regarding the meas
ure this session. It's defeat last veal
was largely due to his opposition. Nov
he is a candidate for governor, anC
as he says, 'in the race to stay" vii
he favor the women, or still oppos'
them? The woman lawyer bill ma,
yet cut a figure in the campaign.
