I T is undoubtedly due to Bacchus. the
God of Wine, that dancing cam,
into bad repute with tsc stern old
Roman and has remained SO with Ger
tain members of our own republic until
this day.
For the Feasts of Dionysjus as h,
was called i'm Greek mythology AT first
a yearly celebration only, finally degon-
Grated into rcyeis of the most frenziej
character.
When under the name of Bacchus the
same divinity was Worshipped in Italy
the ancient Roman, who was an expert
wine grower thought it only fitting that
this especial god should be appeased by
long festivals and celebrations of a
semi-religious character lasting for
days and in which wine and dancing
played the main part.
These dances were executed by the
priests and priestesses of Bacchus, who
under the influence OF wine, music and
the odor of strong incense. burnt before
the statue of the god, worked them
selves into a state of mad frenzy.
While the priestesses of all the other
dieties were held in reverence the Bac-
chantes and the Maenads. as they were
called, soon fell into disrepute, and dur
ing the festival of Bacchus the Roman
matron saw to il that her young daugh-
ter did not leave the house.
The festival of Bacchus was at first
only thanksgiving celebration Hymns
were sung in honor of the god who had
filled the gourds and leathery bags with
wine.

Loveland, Ky,-"When I first
wrote you, | was feeling so miser-
able, that life wasn't worth living"
so writes, in a recent letter Mrs.
Anna Bowling, of this place.
81 was in bad shape; my left side
hurt so, at times, could hardly bear
it, and | could not lie on that side at
night at all. | also had another Sc
rious symptom of womanly trouble.
Il finally decided to give Cardui,
the womans tonic a trial, so I pur-
chased a bottle, and by the time
had taken it, l felt better in every
way so | got another bottle. and it
Strengthened me out entirely.
Il feel as Wen now as I ever did in
my life, and can be safe in saying
that Cardui i, the best medicine on
earth for women. / had little faith
i'm it before / commenced taking it,
but now 7 would not exchange it for
all the other medicines"
Are you one of those poor women
sufferers, who feel that life is hardly
worth the living? Have you that
everlastingly tired, nervous, worn
out, headachy feeling? If so, get
bottle of Cardui and begin taking it
today, No doubt it is the very medi-
cine you need.
