HER PUNISHMENT
VERY SEVERE
Mrs. Chappell Says That Her Pun
ishment for Five Years Was
More than Anyone Could
Ever Tell.

Mt Airy, N. C-Tn a letter from
this place, Mrs. Sarah NJ. Chappell
'ays: 81 suffered for about years
with womanly trouble also stomach
trouble. and my punishment was more
han any one could ever tell.
Several doctors had treated me, and
had tried most every kind of medi-
cine I could think Of but none did me
any good.
I read one day about Cardui the
womans tonic. and l decided to try It.
had not taken but about six bottles
until I was almost cured. 1t did me
more good than all the other medi-
cines | had tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked SO well. and | told them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it"
Are you a woman? Do you suffer
from any of the ailments due to wom-
anly trouble, such as sleeplessness,
nervousness, weakness. and that ever
lastingly tired feeling?
II so. let US urge you to give Car
dui trial You have everything to
gain, if it helps you, and we feel con-
fident it will help you. just as it has
more than million other women, in
the past half century.

younger diplomatists. His present ap-
pointment was made, 1t is said. direct
~ Ivy the emperor. He at first begged
to be excused from accepting it. owing
to his uncertain health, and also be-
cause he doubted whether he had
the gift of public speaking regarded
as necessary for a cabinet minister
in defending Germany's foreign policy
in the Reichstag. The emperor, how
ever. repeated the appointment with
greater urgency; and o Jagow. like
u true Prussian nobleman, bowed
to the decision Of his monarch. While

represented Germany very success

THE SITUATION IN MEXICO.

The New York Times. in the follow
ing article. presents some facts about
tho situation in Mexico which may
help shed a little light on a subject
which is likely for some time to COM
mand attention from the people and
the government Of the United States:
Certain decisions about Mexico
which are pcrsistently cherished in
the United States must nc abandoned
before our people car comprehend the
gravity Of the situation in the sister
republic. IT Is quite possible. for in
stance. that some supporters nj the
|rulc of Portirio niaz. dissatisfied with
tho incfficicncy Of the Madcro admin
|istration. have given PM encourage
ment to certain rebels. Rut there is
no Forfrista party in Mexico today.
and there is no likelihood Of the re-
turn of the Cicntiticos to power. Zap
alta. the Morclos bandit, has been moro
or less protected by Madero. His sup.
port OF Felix Diaz o is question
able. Orozco compelled the banking
house OF Enrico Crecl's fa~ther-in-law.
in chihuahua. to buy a large quantity
Of worthless securities issued by Or
ozco as self-appointed governor Of the
state. The purchase was said, by
Creel's enemies. to be p~rearrangcd.
and was taken as proof that Crecl,
who was foreign minister in the Diaz
cahinet. was %covcrtly supporting Or
ozco. But the work Of that rcvolu-
tionary leader in Chihuahua was
wholly destructive. and he had no
|chance of success. Crccl had public
ly proclaimed his support of Madero.
The idea that the vast majority Of
the Mexican people arc united in Il de-
mand for free institutions and equal
rights is Il serious crror. The Aztccs
of Pucbla and 1he various other In
dian hands have little or nothing in
common. Zapatfs followers care
nothing for the adherents of OroZco.
The country is split up in small fac
tions. Diaz preserved order by dis
lciplinc and tho effective use OF Il strong
|police force. Madcro protested to be-
lieve that milder measures would
prove more .%cficacious. Eut all he did
was to rcawaken tho revolutionary
spirit. OutlHwry. organized robbery,
rapinc. and murder prevail in many
parts of Mexico, and the only hope Of
restoring peace and order is in the in
stitution Of "a powerful central govern
ment."

From places on the border Of the
great Antarctic continent some 500
miles apart Amundson and Scott set
ont within about eight weeks of each
other to reach a spot 700 miles away.
where no man had cvcr penetrated be-
fore. There were no paths or land
marks. nothing hut fields Of snow and

had the earlier start. and after three
months of toll and danger reached a
