Fable OF the Serious Young Man
A young man of serious mien and
little worldly wisdom once went to
college. Being reserved in DISPOSE
ton and averse to social activity, he
applied himself seriously to the bust
ness of making excellent grades in
all his courses. He spent only fair
portion of his time in athletic pur-
suits. and he gained little promi-
hence among the student body.
Almost all the more popular STU
dents looked upon this young man as
a narrow sort of grind. Personally
they liked him and many of them Sc
cretly admired his earnestness But
they deplored his fatal and absorb
ing interest in his work and did their
best to warn him against neglecting
his education for little thing like
good grades.
One day, soon after he had gradu-
ated with high honors. a prominent
bushes man, far-falned for the keen
ness of his vision, came to the col
lege in search of a reliable young
man to fill a responsible position. To
the surprise of the faculty and every
body else in college, he chose this
same serious student, giving as his
excuse the fact that he wanted some
body who could make good at the
work set before him.
Some people understand getting a
college education better than most
people do.-A. E. Supp, in the Kan
sas Industrialist.

OLD LADY

Golden, Ill.-"Having used Cardui,

such good results, feel it my duty to

My mother is living with me, and
she is So years old. For the last three

She read Of how much Cardui has
helped other women who were sick
and ailing, and decided to give 1t a
trial. She began taking it three times
day, and since then has been getting
along simply fine.
Mother only used four bottles Of
Cardui, but she is no longer troubled
with the severe headaches, and her
stomach is so much stronger that she
can eat most anything.
We both feel that any lady who Is
