My friends began asking me why

Cardui. Several are now taking it."
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due TO woman,y trouble,

PETROGRAD is A WONDER.
A City Built by Russia In Defiance OF
the Laws of Nature.

1t is an amazing monument to the
despotfsm of the czars that Fetrograd
has hourished. as it was built, III de-
fiance of the laws of trade and OF ma
ture herself. AS a port II Is immeaS-
urably inferior to Riga, which has
much longer open season, for Petro-
grad is icebound from early November
to the end Of April. AS Il building site
it has been repeatedly and disastrous
ly flooded by the Neva. The highest
elevation within the bounds of the city
is less than fifteen feet above SEA level
and the cellars have to be baled out
nearly every spring when the ice meItS
and the wind blows.
And the rigorous climate constantly
gnaws at walls and columns until the
city has been twice and thrice rebuilt
by the cZars. Many of the most i'm
posing structures are held together
only by means of iron clamps, and the
huge bowlder on which Peter rides his
bronze horse is ever crumbling away.
The stones of the streets are continual
ly sinking below the level, and the
great Cathedral of st. Isaac never
ceases to settle on IL foundation in
which nearly $1,000,000 was sunk. No
less than six tiers of piles We're driven
for the beautiful column of Alexander
l., yet that eighty foot monoIith. the
tallest and largest in Europe. has to
be clamped in iron.
As II dwelling place Petrograd re-
mains the most fatal of any great city
in the civilized world. with Il mortali-
ty of twenty-eight to each 1000 Of pop,
ulation. and within ten years its death
rate actually exceeded its birth rate

Moore and "LaIla Rookh.n

1t was in 1915 that Tom Moore set
himself to produce his oriental ro-
nance "Lalla Rookh." The poem. says
the Pail Mall Gazette. was the subject
of one Of the most curious agreements
ever made between poet and publisher,
Longman undertaking to pay Moore
5000 guineas for an eastern poem and
to take it for better or worse at any
time that suited the authors conven-
ience and without any power to sug-
geSt changes or alterations.

Home For a HOLIDAY,

Some men on home holiday tinker
all day long. others bring with them .
great many books which they never
read. and the result in both cases is
that housekeeping becomes pro-
longed picking up. All men at home
on vacation eat Il great deal more
than other men or than ut other times,
but with the sole exception of the
anomalous academic, who is always
concerned for his gaStrOnomy, they will
eat anything and enjoy it and say so.
\ man at home for his holiday is al
ways vociferouSly appreciative. His
happiness is almost enough to repay Il
woman for the noise he makes and
the mess yet statistics could show that
during any mans home vacation the
women Of the house lose just about as
many pounds uS the man gains. But

"A Man Is as Old as He Feels"

The well known saying, "A man is
as old as he feels, a woman as old as
she looks" it seems, is pure Liver.
pudian, and legal ut that. During the
trial of II breach of promise case there
arose some argument us to the desira-
bility of Il man of forty-nine marrying
a girl of twenty, whereupon the judge
delivered the famous epigram. He
even went one better, for, when coun-
sci for the defense argued that the
lady had had lucky escape from
marrying such II man as his client, the
witty judge observed. what the wo-
man loses is the man she thinks him
to be."-Liverpool Post.

The Centipede.

The centipede was formerly a resi-.
dent of the southern part of this coun
try, but it has gradually worked its
way to the north. so that now it is
quite common in nearly every portion
of the country 1t thrives best in
damp and warm places and has its re-
deeming feature in that it catches and
destroys many of the domestic pests
we are well rid of. Its method of
catching an insect seems to be to spring
over it, inclosing and caging it with
its many legs The belief occasionally
met with that the centipede feeds on
household goods and woolens or other
clothing is without foundation. On
the other hand. the bite of this crea
ture is undoubtedly more or less poi
sonouS, the effect depending on the
susceptibility of the patient.-St, Louis

GERMS ON SALADS.
A Simple Method by Which All DAN

A Simple Method by Which All DAN
ger May Be Avoided.
Drs. Loir and LegagneuX of Paris
tested vinegar as Il destroyer of the
germs Of typhoid fever That they are
killed by n mixture of wine and water
in equal parts has Long been known.
These investigators prove now that
twenty grams of vinegar to liter of
water kill the typhoid bacillus in an
hour and five minutes.
From this" writes the Paris CORE
spondent of the London Lancet. "a
practical inference may be drawn con-
cerning salads. After washing the sal
ad as usual, detaching each leaf. it
should be put into water acidulated
with ten grams Of vinegar to the liter
and remain immersed in this liquid for
about an hour and quarter. All veg
etableS ordinarily eaten uncooked may
be subjected without any inconven-
fence to the same process"
A liter is equivalent to about quart
and ten grams are equivalent TO about
a third of an ounce. So if lettuce or
other greens for salad be placed In
water to which about onethird of an
ounce of vinegar has been added and
be left for about an hour and quar-
ter all danger of typhoid fever will be
removed

Not Really "SentineIs"

All animals, whether quadrupeds
or birds, that feed in herds are said
to place sentries on the outskirts Of
their party. 1t is, however obvious
that wherever there is a collection of
animals feeding or lying down there
will be members of the group at the
corners who, by their very position,
become "sentinels."

BUCK THE LINE HARD.
People Who Do Big Things Do Not Let
Themselves Be Held.

1t was on the football field at one of
the large colleges. a big tackle had
been brought over to the varsity field
from one of the class elevens. 1t was
his first experience with the big team.
He played II fine game until the other
side had the ball. Then he did not
break through" as he should. The
coach finally stopped the play and
went over to him.
What is the trouble? Why don't
you get through?" he said,
THE man opposite me is not playing
fair. He is holding me- said the
tackle.
IF he holds you again I'll put you
off the field flashed back the coach
OF course, as the tackle said, it is
against the rules to hold an opponent
unless he has the ball. but the coach
wanted results and not excuses His
position was that man ought somehow
to break away; that no man must let
one ought to let himself be held. The
excuse may be excellent, but player
who is held is put out Of the game as
effectively as If he were off the field.
He might just as well be off the field
The people who accomplish things
worth while in the world are those
who will not let themselves be held.
There have always been things enough
to hold them. They might have found
excellent excuses, but they have not
had to use any excuses.-Yo Youths Com

Proper Carving.

In carving, ham and beef should be
cut thin; pork, lamb, veal ahd mutton
a little thicker. When carving a leg
of mutton, take hold of the bone end
with the left hand, then cut thin
slices down to the bone and loosen
each slice by putting the knife fat on
the barred bone and cutting through.
The slicing should gradually change
direction slightly, so to always cut
across the grain.
