Hines, Ala must confess, says
Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, OF this place, that
Cardui the woman's tonic, has dcne me
great deal Of good.
Before commenced using Cardui, ]
would spit up everything | ate. had a
tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and was
irregular. could hardly drag around,
and would have severe headaches con-
tinuousy.
Since taking Cardui, have entirely
quit splitting up what ! eat. Everything
seems TO digest all right, and | have
gained 10 pounds in weight"
If you are victim OF any of the numer-
Gus ills so common 10 your sex, il is
wrong TO suffer.
For half century, Cardui has been re-
lieving just such ills, as is proven by the
thousands OF letters, similar 10 the above,
which pour into our office, year by year.
Cardui is successful because it is COM
posed ofingredients which act specifically
on the womanly constitution, and helps
build the weakened organs back 10 health
and strength.
Cardui has helped others, and will help
you, too. Get bottle today. You

What They Sanu,

A North side Sunday school teacher
with class of little girls was trying
to get them TO rehearse some songs
for an entertainment. She wanted to
find out what part they sang. Now,
what do you sing?" she asked a little
blueeyed maiden, who replied: well,
brother says sing terrible and papa
says | sing horrible, but mamma says
sing lovely The teacher tried to
suppress a smile, but the pupils all
looked serious, and especially SO
when the little girl next to the blue
eyed maiden got up and said, That's
what sing, too" However, the class
was organized and their singing
promises to be one Of the treats of
the Observation-Disclosures Dis
patch.

and to declare that If he had known
that he was to be permitted to sit
next to his distinguished Scotch

THE BATTLE OF
THE TIRES

Agricultural and Commercial Press servicel
1t is interesting to watch the forces
of civilization battling for supremacy.
The struggle now going on between the
| rubber and the iron tire promises to
be the liveliest contest of the Twen-
/ eth Century.
The struggle is a silent one and
there are no war correspondents to
write vivid descriptions of the con-
fiict but the results are more far
reaching to present and future gen
erations than the war of Europe.
The rubber tire has been maneuver-
ing for point of attack for several
years and has captured few unim-
portant positions in traffic, but it has
now pitched "A decisive battle with
its iron competitor by hurling a mil
lion "jitneys" at the street railways
and the battle is raging from ocean
to ocean. Upon the result of the
struggle depends the future of the
rubber tire. If it is compelled to re-
treat its doom is sealed, but If it wins
the battle it will revolutioniZe the
transportation methods of this nation
II the rubber tire conquers the
street traffic its next struggle is with
the railroads of the country, and then
forces ever fought out on the face
of this earth is on, for iron is the un-
disputed master in transportation, and
is fortified behind billions of dollars,
and millions of men.
Stephenson applied the steel tire
to an iron rail in 1914 but it was 1869
before the golden spike was driven
at Promontory Point, which bound
the country together with bands of
steel. 1t took the iron tire iifty-hye
years to creep from ocean to ocean,
but the rubber tire while warm from
the creative mind of the inventive
genius sped across the continent like
an arrow shot from the bow of Ulys-
ses. The roadbed was already pre-
pared and therein lies the power of
the rubber tire over that of iron, for
government builds and maintains the
public highway.
But iron is a stubborn metal and
it has mastered every wheel that
turns; has fought battles with every
element above and beneath the earth
and has never tasted the wormwood
of defeat, and when rubber hurls its
full force against this monarch OF
tho Mineral II fnuHnro vnhannI
to the factory stunned beyond recov-
cry.
The rubber tire first made its ap-
pearance on the bicycle, but it proved
u frivolous servant and was dismissed
for incompetency. 1t has always been
too much inclined to revel in luxury
to be taken seriously as a utility ma
chine and its reputation is not one to
inspire confidence in heavy traffic
performance.
But to those who care to watt into
dreamland, 1t is enchanting to note
that there will be a marvellous differ
ence between a rubber and an iron
age. The rubber tire will scatter the
cities throughout the valleys for with
transportation at every mans door.
why a city? 1t will traverse the con-
tinent with a net work OF Macadam
highways as beautiful as the boule- |
ward built by Napoleon. II will par.
alyze the law making bodies OF this
nation for how colld the legislatures
run without the railroads to operate
on?

STANDARD OIL TO
LIMIT SHIPMENTS
Negotiating With Britain
for Safety Of Ships
and Cargocs.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-An ar
ranEomcnt is being negotiated be-
tween the British government and the
Standard Oil company, which is ex-
Pccted TO save the company's ships
with cargoes for neutral ports from
seizure and detention. Under the
plan the company would agree to
limit the amount Of the shipments to
the figure shown by the statistics OF
the period before the war to be the
normal consumption Of that country.
A similar arrangement Is being con-
sidcred in connection with the cotton
trade. An estimate Is now being
made Of the amount Of cotton which
might be regarded as the normal con-
sumption of each nation.
All Of these negotiations are in
formal as the American goaernment
uocs not recognize the right Of the
British government to Interfere with
legitimate trade with neutral coun-
tries.

fire
During the course OF the operations

that a number of Austrian battleships
lad taken refuge In the harbor.
These, although not Of modern type.
would have been able effectively to
face the somewhat slow Italian squad

attack them. According TO the Of
fetal report the Giuseppe Garibaldi

torpedo and sank The crew jumped
