COULD NOT HOLD OUT LONGER Virginia Lady Realized She Couldn't Stay Nervous, Weak, Pale, and Hold Out Much Longer. Cardui Helped
 Her.

Dublin, Va.-Mrs. Sallie Hughett, of Route 2, this place, recently relates her interesting experience in recover ing her health, saying: "When .. game on was in very bad condition and nothing the doctor gave me did me any. good. Some say you have to let this take it's course but I knew there ought to be something to give relief. Twas nervous, weak and pale. couldn't eat or sleep to do any good, and felt I couldn't stand this very bng.
 q heard and read of Cardui, and how it had benefited other women in the same condition, so decided to use it myself. After my first bottle, felt better, so of course kept it up, and it did the work.
 Ut helped me as nothing else did. began to pick up right away. 1 ate and slept and could rest. I knew I was getting better. kept it up and 1t did wonders for me-"
 Thousands of women, suffering as this Virginia lady did, have used Car dui with equally happy results, and voluntarily relate their experiences so' the1 c.-ers, troubled with disorders common f.Al2ong women, may learn to take Cardui.

 "No,' said Imogene, T am going to have to do something to make Alice angry"

 T want to peeve her, as you express it." said Imogene wearily. "Peeving is the object, not the icidental result of what l am going to do" ! "Why thought Alice was your buddy said Andrew in surprise. She almost lives here"
 That is just the trouble" said Im- cgene. T must think up something to make her angry, so she will stay away.

She and Etehl are also close friends and Ethel is sure to tell Ter about it and she is also sure to ask her why she was not invited. and then Alice will never come here again. The trouble with Alice is that she {, Is so sensitive that she has very few trends, Andrew, and that makes her spend so much of her time here and at one or two other places.

Peter Rabbit, what are the chief diff ferences between Striped Chipmunk and his cousins, the Tree Squirrels?" asked Old Mother Nature.
 Peter looked very hard at Striped Chip munk, quite as 1T he had never really seen him before. "He is smaller than the others ' began Peter. Tn fact, he is the smallest Squirrel I know" Peter paused.
 Old Mother NatEe nodded encourag- ngly. "Go on," said she.
 He wears a striped coat while the others wear plain coats' continued Peter. The stripes are black and yellowish White and run along his sides and back, a black stripe running right down the middle t#his back. The rest of his coat is reddf brown above and light under heath. His tail is rather thin and flat. l never see him in the trees, so l guess he can't climb"
 "I can, tool' declared Striped Chip munk. T can climb if I want to, and l do sometimes. But l like the ground best''

Department of Justice Prepares to Enforce
 Sugar Profit Ruling
By Associated Press

Washington. May 12.-Telegrams were sent by the department of justice today to all United States attorneys outlining the departments policy of holding the margin of profit on sugar sales to l cent for wholesalers and ? cents for retailers.
 - This margin of profit was fixed by the sugar equaliza ton board more than a year ago, but Assistant Attorney Gen eral Garvan said misunderstandings had arisen among fair-price commit tees as to it's application at the pres- cnt time. To clear up the tangle, dis trict attorneys were instructed to rig idly enforce the ruling with respect to the margin of profit and to prosecute firms and individuals taking more than that amount per pound.

Hines to Be Arbiter
 in European River
 Navigation Questions
By Associated Pres,

Washington, May 12.-Waker D. Hines, who retires Saturday as director gen. eral of railroads, has been selected by the President to be the arbitrator between various European countries concerned in questions affecting navigation on the Danube. Rhine, Oder, Elbe and other rivers of central Europe It is understood that to certain extent. especially on the Danube. the full resumption of navi- gation is dependent upon the determina- tions to be made. Interruption of navi- gation on the Danube has affected eco- homie conditions in the Balkans and neighboring states.
 The work of the arbitrator will keep him in Europe for several months and If Mir. Hines undertakes the mission it will be necessary for him to leave the United States in the very near future, and establish headquarters in Paris.
