 ''There is only a Democratic work ing majority in the house of about twenty-five" said the congressman. "and if there was a probability Of leaving President Wilson in the hands of the Republican party by reason Of members absenting themselves, would feel obliged to remain at my post, and would do so, irrespective of my personal desires or ambitions"
 How long, MT. Taylor, do you think the coming session will last?' the congressman was asked.
 "Probably until the first Of June, and maybe July" he replied.
 "What matters. of national import aNce do you expect to come before tho coming session."
 "The question of preparedness for national defonsc, among other mat ters uf national importance, will, ot course, be considered and rura! credits. or farm loan bill, will also be before the congress. I am exceed ingly anxious that a bill to help the farmers of the country if possible, in the way Dt longtime loans at a low rate of interest, be passed
 Concerning his practical withdraw al from the practice of law since he has been member of congress, Col onel Taylor said:
 "I have not engaged in the trial of & single case, neither have accepted Il fee. have devoted my entire time, aimee my entrance into congress to the interest of my district and the nation.

 Congrcssman Taylor expects to arrive in the national capital on Tuesday. and. as he says, q cannot meet all my constituents before leav- ing, you may, if you please. say for mo, Goodbye, and God bless you, to your readers and our people"

TWELVE YEARS
 OF FAILING HEALTH
Brought to Happy End. Says the People in Three Counties know
 What Cardui Did for Her.

Wcaverville., N. C.-Mrs. Abbagail Hampton, of this place, says that about I2 years ago she began to take Gardui after having been in failing health for 12 years, during which time she had to take to her bed four days out of each month, and suffered agony: that the doctors told her she must have female trouble and gave her medicine which did her no good and finally insisted on her going to the hospital for treatment.
 She goes on to say: Il am a large woman and my ordinary weight, 16O pounds. went down to 135. I got so bad l just dragged around and could scarcely sit up. My nelghbors all thought I was going to die and would say I couldn't live long. My little daughter thought the same.
 My husband and friends urged me to try Cardui, and he bought me some of it. l began feeling better as soon IS began taking it, and I steadily improved until ] was well and strong. I mako my garden. do my housework and have cooked for 20 bOarders at one time. Am strong, healthy Wo- man, permanently cured by Cardul. My husband and l can't say enough for Cardui. The people in three counties know what this medicine has done for me, for neigther l nor my husband ever cease praising it."
 Cardui is for sale at all druggists with full directions for use. Try it.

Amazing Appetltes.

If baby had the appetite Of young potato beetle it would cat from 50 to 1OC pounds of food every "A hours. If horse ate as much as a caterpillar, in proportion to its size, it would consume ton of hay every "A hours. A caterpillar cats twice it's weight os leaves every day; but q potato beetle devours every day at least five times it's weight of foliage. every bit of which represents just so much money to the farmer.
 The most destructive of all insects, however, is the grasshopper. which, when in good health, consumes in day ten times it's weight of vegeta- tion. No wonder that whole districts are devastated by its muititud'nous Swarms.
