nervous breakdown of some kind .

all seemed to come from -. trouble
for at had faIuttng spells and
suffered a great deal, but more from
the weak, trembIy, no-account feeling
than anything else. l knew l needed
tonic, and needed it badly.
II began the use of Cardui, to see
If l couldn't get some strength, as !
knew Of other cases that had been
helped by it's use. l felt better
! soon saw a great Improvement, so
kept it up.
81 used seven bottles of Cardui, and
can say the money was we'll spent, for
I grew we'll and strong. Now able to

Of work BESIDES"
If you are rundown, weak, nervous,
and suffer from the ailments peculiar
to women, it is very likely that Cardui
will help you, in the way it has helped
thousands of others, during the past
40 years.
Take Cardui, the woman's tonic.

contact with the heat, which then
turns to steam.
You Will very readily understand
that the steam IL decomposcd, the
oxygen being consumed and the hy-
drogen get free.
The hydrogen, coming in contact
with the different rocks and forma-
tions of the earth, forms gas. This
steam and gas is continually being
produced by water and heat, and as
steam occupies ZOO times the space
Of any given quantity of water, you
may expect this pressure to force
its way through the many seams,
cracks and fissures that are in the
earth, and as il seeks its outlet
through these seams and fissuros,
the gas becomes thicker; as II pass.
cs through the earth it becomes car
hcnized and then we have petroleum.
Then, after many ages Of time
that we cannot pass upon, this Pc
troleum being forced through these
flssures finds itself lodging place
somewhere in the earth as n reser-
voiI--the final end OF its Journey,
which brings us TO the coal veins.
This --potroleum--thcn becomes
soldified and is In veins Of bitumi'
nous coal.
If my theory is correct, bituminous
coal is solidified petroleum. Now,
will some geologist tell us why coal
ia in veins but not in great, bulky
masses Of vegetable matter, as peat
is found?
Coal, like petroleum, is composed
Of hydrogen and carbon. Peat is un'
Goubtedly II vegetable composition
and is found in grat bulky deposits
where the vegetable matter fell and
was dried cut; and again, both peat
and wood are converted by heat into
charcoal, while all coal under heat
makes coke and cannot make char
coal; and again, you cannot make
coke from peat or wood.
Geology has never been able TO ex
plain why all coal measures lie i'll
veins rather than in great bulky
masses, as would have resulted had
the vegetable decomposition theory
been true.
l conclude with this theory as the
possible origin Of petroleum and coal
If coal was not in liquid form at
some stage OF its origin, how did ii
get into veins as we find il in thf
coal mines?

II is claimed by many OF the most
