HOT, DIZZY FEELING
Atlanta Lady's Uncomfortable and
 Annoying Condition Relieved, She Says, by Cardui.

Atlanta, Ga.-Miss Alice Frances Young, Of 2S East Alexander Street, this city, says: After entering wo- manhood, l suffered so much with womanly weakness My back ached. I would have, at certain times, hot feeling that seemed to go to my head. Even my shoulders would hurt, and 1t made me very dizzy and uncomfort- able. When the blood would flow to my head-I suppose that was what it vas-I would faint and feel so weak
 T couldn't do my work. I had good position, and this was surely annoying as well as embarrassing. would usually have to go home and go to bed. I certainly suffered greatly.
 T heard of Cardui, and my mother bought it for me. It was the first and only medicine that ever did me any good for this trouble"

MORE TAXES BEING PAID
 BY PEOPLE IN ARKANSAS

Although mankind is prone to com plain of hard times and an inability to raise money for such purpose, it Is daily demonstrated that when they are forced to do so, there are few who fail The people also naturally com- plain against the papment of taxes, and there is probably no lax system in the world, however light the burden imposed, which meets with popular approval
 All of which is introductory to the statement that there has been a most remarkable increase in the amount of taxes paid the Federal government by the people of Arkansas during the last few years. In 1897 when H. L. Remmel was Collector of Internal Revenue for the state the total am- cunt of taxes collected was SSO.000 for the year, consisting chiefly of tax on the sale of liquor. The Spanish Amreican War came out with it's debt, which had to be borne by the people and this increased the Federal tax in Arkansas to about s4OO .OOO q year, which was considered a very large sum.
 But 1t is scarcely a beginning. The people Of Arkansao had not yet learn ed what it was to pay taxes. They did not know their full capicity. Little did they dream at the time that with Tn afew years they would be paying

GOOD HIGHWAYS HELP VALUES
Lack Of Improved Roads Responsible
for Abandonment or Sale Of
New York Farms

Improved highways now enter more
than e before into the question Of
profitable farming. The farmer whose
land is not accessible by good roads
which may be used for motor trans
pOrtation can no longer compete favor
ably with his more fortunate neigh
Dor In the production and marketing
Of crops. Improved highways greatly
extend the territory in which a farmer
can do business. In many cases he
can carry his produce directly to city
markets, the time required In haul
Ing to and from railroads Is greatly
lessened and fewer teams are re-
CURED. Motor equipment can be stored
throughout the winter at little ex-
pense while the cost Of feeding and
caring for teams through the winter
seasO becomes a considerable item of
labor and expense.
Lack Of improved highways is di-
rectly responsible for the selling or
abandonment Of many farms in
rural districts, writes B. Fl. Paul of
New York In American Agriculturist.
This statement is consistently sup
ported by the fact that out Of IS farms
listed for sale by a real estate agency
In one county only three were locat-
ed on improved highways. 1t may also
be pointed out that these three farms
were held at prices which indicated
that the were not especially
anxious to sell. On the other hand,
the farms which were less f%avorably
situated were to be had for prices
which in most cases would not under
present conditions replace the farm
buildings alone.
A wider program for improved high
ways Is therefore imperative If we are
to maintain our agricultural indus
tries. The availability of state aid in

had fought for It's liberties.
A brilliant reception vas under way.
A slowly moving line of stately guests
passed by Lafayette, who greeted each
with courtly grace. Presently there ap-
preached an old soldier, clad In a worn
Continental uniform. In his hand was
an ancient musket, and across his
shoulder was thrown a small blanket,

After warming yourself bring the

man to occupy the white house, and
it is to be hoped that he will have bet
ter success than most country editors
who have heck Of time satisfying
their subscribers. Speaking of news
paper men and rulers, Napoleon Bona
parte had no use for editors or law
yers. He considered them unneces-
sary evils and did what he could to
humiliate and embarrass them. There
were thirteen newspapers in Paris
when he became Emperor of the
French and he at once cut the number
to eight. AS for attorneys, he sent
as many of them as he could to the
guillotine. And yet some people think
Napoleon was the greatest man the
world ever produced. But it was the
newspaper fraternity which finally got
Napoleon's goat. The journalistic
gentlemen of England stirred up the
animosity of the British who, after
forming an invincible coalition, finally
wiped off Mr.. Napoleon's slate of ac-
complishment at observation-disclosures
