I was. ." says Mrs. J. B.. Gadd, of
this place. 'I suffered with a pain In
my left side, could not sleep at night
with this pain, always in the left
side.
My doctor told me to use Cardui.
took one bottle, which helped me and
after my baby came, was stronger
and better, but the pain was still
there.
I at first let it go, but began to get
weak and in rundown condition,
so decided to try some more Cardui,
which I did.
This last Cardui which took made
me much better, in fact, cured me. It
has been number Of years, still |
have no return Of this trouble.
I feel 1t was Cardui that cured me,
and recommend 1t as splendid fe-

Don't allow yourself to become
weak and rundown from womanly

~ help you, as 1t has so many thou
sands Of other women in the past 40
years. Headache, b1ckache. sideache,

Program For League Sessions For
Accusing interest and inspiring
Cooperation.

North Carolina is one Of q number OF
States to organize what is called q

by the Insurance Commissioner of the
State and has already proven its value.
The object Of course IL to secure the

Of most careful thought. There should

give list Of suggestions for the use
of teachers in promoting the work OF
the various subordinate leagues of the
North Carolina Safety League:
1. Have leagues meet regularly,
weekly or at least twice a month. II
possible a monthly meeting should be
held during vacation. 1t is often ad-
visable to alternate league meetings
with those of the literary society.
2. Conduct the meetings according
to parliamentary law as far as pos.
sible.

Suggestions.

Interesting programs can be worked
up. from the literature and pamphlets
sent out from the insurance depart
ment, II the teacher who is the honor
airy president will cooperate with us
In the work to the extent of giving a
little of her time and thought to the
saefty league.
Reports from the different commit.
tees named in the constitution and by,
laws will prove interesting and often
make full programs of great value in
themselves and form the subject for
enthusiastic discussion.
The children should be encouraged
to bring in clippings from the news
papers which refer to fires and acct
dents of all kinds and their causes,
and the prevention of such fires and
accidents discussed at meetings. One
each OF such clippings should be care
fully pasted in the scrap book and fire.
quently referred to.
Accidents other than those resulting
from fires should be reported and dis
cussed as well as the ways of prevent
ing them.
Dangerous street crossings, getting
ON and off Of moving cars, swinging
trains and street cars, hanging ON the
back OF moving vehicles has cost the
loss OF many life or limb and should
be frequently talked about and made
the subject of papers.
Debates can be arranged, such as:
Resolved, the child in the country is
safer than the child in town." "Resolv-
ed, the life of fireman is more dan
gerous than the life of policeman"
Resolved, fire has been the means of
more people losing their lives than
water, etc."
At one meeting have different chill
dren tell something of the great fires
Of the world. At another meeting ask
all to bring in quotation from the BIZ
BILE in which fire is mentioned or see
how many can find poetry to read or
recite referring to fire.
Have Boy Scouts who are members
Of the league to discuss forest fires,
their causes and what Uncle Sam is
doing to protect our forest
On Fire Prevention Day arrange a
special program and have some one
come to the school and talk to the
league if possible. Speakers can be
used at other times. Call on chamber
of commerce or woman's club.
During "Clean Up" week offer the
service Of the league whenever needed
10 help carry away trash and rubbish,
distribute literature or to assist in
cleaning up the town or community
n any way possible. Arrange work
or the league and community.
Encourage the league members to
pay dues regularly and use the money
o buy something for their league or
school.

HAD WRONG MEASURES?
ocAL GROCERS IN COURT SAT-
IIRnAV

Civil action against number of
High Point grocers was instituted last
week by w. B. Young, Guilford coun-
tvs keeper of standard weights and
measures, who contended that they
had used liquid measures in handling
commodities for sale when they should
have used dry measures.
The cases came up for a hearing be-
fore Justice of the Peace D.. H Col
1ins, in Greensboro Saturday. The
following local grocers were penaliz-
ed: R. F. Powell, A. Robertson, J. c..
Kive+t, A o. Raper. C. b. Welch r.
w. Steward, T. J. Steed, w. B. Evans,
A. ]. Jones, ]. S. Guyer and c. B.
HOuser.
JUDGMENT against the alleged often
dars for $40 was rendered in each
case by the justice, while the costs
we're also assessed against the defen-
dant. There is a law that the stand
ard keeper or person bringing the ac-
ton can recover the penalty.
J. S. Guver and c. B Houser paid
the penalties imposed by the court,
while the other defendants entered
notice CT appeal. Their cases will
