WISHED SHE
COULD DIE
And Be Free From Her Troubles,
but Finds Better Way.

Columbia, TENN Many a fine, "
says Mrs. Jessie Sharp, of this place,
II wished I would die and be relieved
of my suffering, from womanly troubles.
! could not get up, without pulling at
something to help me, and stayed in bed
most Of the time. ! could not do my
housework.
The least amount Of work fired me
out. My head would swim, and | would
tremble for an hour or more. Finally, |
took Cardui, the woman's tonic, and |
am not bothered with pains any more,
and | don't have to go to bed. In fact,
| am sound and well Of all my troubles. "
Cardui goes TO all the weak spots and
helps to make them strong. II acts with
natlire-not against her. II IS for the
tired, nervous, irritable women, who feel
as IL everything were wrong, and need
something to let their nerves and
strengthen the worn-out system.
II you are a woman, suffering from any
of the numerous symptoms of womanly
trouble, take Cardui. It viii help you.

24O.POund Pigs.

With corn above so cts. hogs eat
their heads off very quickly. The hog
that takes two or three months to get
on full feed never brings you aprofft.
When you are ready to put your
shoats on feed, begin with the B. A.
Thomas Hog Medicine. Use regularly
and watch your shoats round out into
fat hogs in nine months-hogs going
well over 200 pounds and as high as
24O pounds. Figure the average feed
ing and you will see why the B. A.
Thomas medicine is a good invest
ment. Try feeding out your hogs on
this plan and if you are not more than
pleased, we will refund the cost OF
the medicine. T. G. Barge, Brook

Booker T. Washington.

Born slave less than fifty years ago, Booker
T. Washington, who died in Tuskegee, Ala, on
Sunday, educated himself with the proceeds Of
his own toll and devoted his life to the great
work of improving the condition of his race,
displaying such intelligence, ability, determine
ton, and energy as quickly to the admiration
and support of hundreds of broad-minded and in
huential members of the white race, North and
South. Undoubtedly Booker Washington was
born with superior mental qualities, and they were
cultivated through his efforts, with the result
that he came justly to be recognized as the one
great leader of the negro race in America. All of
his efforts for the welfare of his people were
practical, with practical end in view; he dealt
with conditions and not theories, and strove to
better the things that were, without wasting time
in deploring that they were not otherwise. What
this man accomplished for the negro race. par
ticularly in the South, cannot be measured and
he did it all with a modesty that would in fact
have been obtrusive but that its genuineness was
convincing. He shrank from honor and glory
for himself, and yet measure of these fell to his
lot in spite of himself.
Booker Washington, in 1909, reluctantly sat
at luncheon with President Roosevelt in the
White House upon the latter's insistence, the
President having sought his advice in the selec-
ton of Federal judge in Alabama. The incident
caused furore, but many of those who con-
demned Mr.. Roosevelt then recognize now in the
honor he spontaneously paid to this earnest, self
educated champion of struggling people another
illustration of Mr.. Roosevet's own independence
of thought and action and straightforward SINGER
ity that likewise did him honor: 1t may be that
in time another will come to take Booker Wash
ington's place, but today he is nowhere in sight.
His people will mourn and do him reverence, with
all reason, for they have lost friend who, be-
cause of his greatness of mind his personality,
and his oeaseless energy, was able, to achieve
greatly for their welfare.

By z. b. JOHNS.

In the quiet recesses Of the editorial
sanctum Of the Leavenworth Times.
Representative D. A. Anthony has taken
his pen in hand and expressed his opin'
ion of the legislative program proposed
by Secretary Garrison. Although Re-
publican, Mr. Anthony has usually
worked tremendously with Chairman
Hay of the Committee on Military AZ
fairs. Mr.. Anthony is the second Repub-
lican on the committee and on account
OF his long service is regarded as one
Of its most influential members.
Mr.. Anthony declares that Congress
should provide for an increase OF fifteen
regiments of field artillery instead Of
four, the infantry should have not less
than fifteen more regiments and five
regiments OF cavalry should be added to
the regular establishment. This increase,
Mr.. Anthony insists, should carry with
IL a proportionate increase of engineers,
aviators and other auxiliary troops.
The increase in the strength OF the
coast artillery proposed by the Secretary
OF War will meet with uncompromis-
INK OppOSlllOn
eryone" he says, with the exception OF
coast artillery officers anxious for pro-
motion, is aware Of the fact that in
time Of emergency the coast artillery
can readily be augmented from the other
branches OF the service. The proposed
continental army will require consider
able thought before II will be swallowed
by those who believe in the creation Of
an efficient military establishment. The
training camp idea should be elaborated.
but we believe that the real second line
Of defense should come from the build
ing up and the strengthening of the
National Guard organization already in
existance. 1t is entirely practicable TO
coordinate the National Guard with the
regular establishment and a moderate
pay bill will build up an effective Ma
tional Guard force far superior to any
proposed continental army scheme"

Root and Whitman.

While there is very general impression that
the overwhelming defeat of the New York con-
that it has ended the political career of Gov Whit
man The explanation is that the governor some
time ago committed political suicide. He entered
office with the almost universal conviction that
he would develop into the coming man on the
Republican side In O few months this illusion
was dispelled. 1t was found that the governor
was going and not coming, and it was the fact
that he was already dead cock in the pit that
for a time made the venerable Root appear as

They cannot be excluded without booming a great
