 As nothing gave me any relief, asked the doctor if I hadn't better try Cardui. He said. It might help you,' and told my husband to get me a bottle. At this time was so weak could not lift my head. and my voice was so weak. people had to lean towards the bed to hear what I said. 1 looked so bad and Jhad such dark color that I looked like 10 dead woman, and my relatives thought |I would never get up again. |s took one bottle of Cardui and it re- Iieved the pain and suffering so much that my husband got another bottle, and that improved me still more. I began to strengthen and gradually got well. I have now had better health for six years than l ever had in all my life I have taken no medicine since. and my health is perfect.

How to Mend Celluloid

T happened to notice an inquiry in the Corner as to how to mend celluloid. This fs easily done and requires no cement and no chemist. Simply wet the broken parts with amylacetate and when it is partially dissolved or gummy, paste together and allow to dry and harden in position for some hours or day. The amylacetate is, in no sense. cement. It simply dissolves the celluloid, and the partially dissolved celluloid is its own cement. The process Is as simple as uniting two pieces of glue with drop of water Amylacetate Is in some places known as banana oil,' al- though it is not an oil and is not produced from bananas, if it does smell like them
 LEWIS J. K" Other readers have sent in recipes for the cement, which will appear later, as we can make room The above is explicit and bears the mark of the professional chemist-unless l am mistaken in inter- naf' evidence.

WOMANS CIVIC BOARD GETS RESULTS:
 COMMITTEE REPORTS ENCOURAGING
By MRS. SIDNEY NJ. uLLmAN

Mrs. Hard made report of Phelan park opening next week, date to be announced later.
 A splendid report was made by Mrs. J. W. B. Chambers of East Birmingham. Owing to the action taken by her and the excellent support given her by Stree. Commissioner Gafford, ditch was drained on Forty-second street and Tenth avenue. This has never been done before so early in the season, July usually being the month when these things are attended to. The consequence being that that sec tion surrounding the Cunningham school instead of being the most unhealthy spot in the city, is now entirely free of malaria.
 A committee has been appointed to see the city commissioners about putting fire escapes on the city hall: the danger lies in having so many women and children in the library on the fourth floor.
