Clyattville, Ga.-1n statement which she gave at her home on R. F. D. l, here, Mrs. T. A. Copeland said:
 q have, believe, avoided a good deal of suffering by the use of Cardui, and am thoroughly, con- vinced that it has been of great benefit to me.
 Before the birth of two of my children, 1 grew so weak and nervous I could hardly go and suf- fered had a friend who told me of Cardui, so the next time when I grew so weak and rundown I began to use it. 1 used it three months. I grew stronger and less nervous. The baby was stronger and a better baby, and l really be- lieve it was because 1 built up my strength with this splendid tonic"

GLADYS SUSPECTS' HER BEAUTY JURY ALSO "DUMb"
Mrs. Fox Granted New Trial After She Is Given
 Only $5,00O

CHICAGO. March 26.-Mrs. Gladys Graham Fox will concede that the beauty proof" jury which tried her against Albert Fuchs, her millionaire father-in-law, was beauty proof" as advertised. but she also suspects it was dumb.
 The FoxFuchs Jury, with each member sworn in advance to wear smoked glasses in so far as the plaint- ifs appearance was concerned, found for Mrs. Fox to the extent of a paltry S5.OO0.
 Pretty Mrs. Fox asked for $250,000 and she isn't quite certain whether the jury understood her. Of course, one doesn't always get $25,000 when one asks for $250,0O0 in such a suit in fact sometimes one doesn't get any more than 6 cents-but another jury. Mrs. Fox feels.a ought at least to split the difference. She claims to have lost Carleton D. Fox, once a good husband, through the machina- tions of Fuchs.
 So thereIl be another trial of the suit.
 Fuchs, the wealthy florist and real tor, Is just as dissatisfied with the verdict and nowhere near as con- vinced that the jury refused to make any concessions to his daughter-in- laws good looks. His attorneys de- manded a new trial at once, which was denied.
 Shall we ask for a new trialT' Mrs. Fox was asked by her attorney.
 Mrs. Fox bit her lower lip.
 "Of coursel" she declared emphati- cally. Five thousand dollars! That isn't justice"
 Judge Scanlan granted the retrial forthwith. It will take place some time in September.
 No Thought of 2 heauts. Q f The jurors declared that through out the trial and their deliberations they hadn't given the plaintiffs beauty thought. all the more since they had promised the old million aires counsel that they would hear and see naught but evidence.
 T guess they weren't influenced greatly by the evidence. either,' was Mrs. Foxs only comment. Attorney William Severin declared that jurors had been approached by enemies of Fuchs who attacked the millionaires attitude during the war and vilified him otherwise. He Is making an investigation which may be brought to the attention of the court. Fuchs is of German ancestry and Mrs. Fox clamed that his desire to see his son marry German wom- an had eventually broken up their home.
 All the principals in the suit would have been named Fuchs, she testi- fled, had not Carleton changed his name under wartime pressure.
 In an impassioned address to the jury last week the fair plaintiffs counsel had branded Fuchs as ''ser- pent in the Garden of Eden," who drove Carleton and Gladys from "a | paradise of love-"

 The possibility also was advanced that the model had demanded too large a share of the hush money
 Mir Mitchell, MT. Pecora continued, knew but little of Miss keenan mode of living and did not know until her murder, of Albert E' Gti- ;. mares, the man in the fur coat. The model had told him. it was saio' that she was employed in a dress making establishment.

 The Philadelphia clubman. MT Pe- cora said, had written but few let ters to Miss Keenan and none of these was couched in excessively endear- ing terms They were usually headed he said, Dear Dorothy" or "Deac Dottie." The contents of the Palm Beach letter. which was taken from her apartment by the murderer, the police believe, was said to have contained sentimental expressions but had been seen only by her and one other person.
 Mir. Mitchell. he continued, had en- deavored to get in touch with his family at Palm Beach last Saturday to warn them that his name was about to appear in connection with the case.
 Permission lad been readily granted Mir. Mitchell, MT. Pecora said. to leave the state in order to join his family It was understood, he said, that MT. Mitchell now Is in Washing ton and would join his wife in Rich mond, Va, and return from thefne 70 Philadelphia with her.

the various government which would make 1t impossible for them to ever participate with the same degree of Friendship and trust that attended the naval negotiations in Washing ton.
 Japanese Plans.
 It Is known here that the Japa" nese viewpoint regarding the proposed change of the batteries on American battleships corresponds closely with that of Great Britain. The Japanese take the ground that during the Washington conference 1t was the general opinion of naval experts that tonnage should be taken into account in the 5-5-3 ratio.
 While details of proposed expendi- ture of the 50-million yen for inn provement of the Japanese fleet have not reached the embassy here, 1t Is the understanding that no pro vision has been made for any such change in the main batteries of the retained Japanese battleships as is contemplated by the American navy department. Some of the Japanese ships, like the Mutsu. carry main bat teries of equal range with the British guns and consequently exceeding the American gun range. but it is said that these batteries were all installed before the conclusion of the Washington conference.

GERMAN IRON- MASTER
 C0NFERS WITH STEEL MAGNATE OF AMERICA
All Roads Lead to Rome as MusSoIini Forces Rec-
 ognition

ROME, March 26.-All roads lead to Rome where Premier Benito Mus solini, who Is becoming more and more a power to. be reckoned with ip international affairs, holds forth.
 The Italian capital Monday became the mecca of statesmen and capital ists of several nations, men who are apparently attempting to relieve the critical situation brought about by the French occupation of the Ruhr.
 E. H. Gary, president of the board of directors of the United States Steel Corporation, conferred at the Grand hotel with Hugo Stinnes, the wealth. est man in Germany, who owns ex- tensive holdings in the Ruhr.
 Although no announcement as to the conversation between Shines and Gary was made. the two iron masters undoubtedly talked concerning the troublesome European situation.
 Gary's stay here is limited because the Mauretania, on which he is cruis ing, is about to leave Naples, where it has been for several days. For this reason, the financier did not confer with Premier Mussolini, who is now in Paris.
 Foreign Minister Jasper, Belgium, Is en route to Italy to confer with Mussolini on the Ruhr situation. Ac-
  Italy and Belgium are becoming in- creasingly suspicious of the French purpose of the Ruhr.
 Belgium, 1t is said. has been dis satisfied with the accomplishments in the Ruhr for some time, and Italy, who never did actively engage in the Ruhr occupation, has doubted the wisdom of the occupation from the beginning.
 Both Italy and Belgium. it is un- derstood, have been particularly hard hit because the industries of both nations are dependent on the Ruhr for coal which has not been forth coming.
 Senator Hiram Johnson, of Cali Efornia, and leader of the republican, i: :irreconcila bles in the United States Senate. is now en route to Rome, where he will have an audience with Mussolini.
 The pilgrimages to Rome by lead ing financiers and statesmen Is sig nificant inasmuch as it leads to the conclusion that Mussolini has forced the world to recognize Italy as a potent factor in the world situation and the scene of internal conferences Is shifting from London and Paris to the Italian capital.

In summer wood floors expand. In winter they dry out and contract, with a tendency to open up the cracks between the boards.

Many colos and pattems
 Architects and interior decorators have been quick to seize the opportunity to suggest in the permanent ,linoleum floor a color value that is artistically part of the room itself Well-chosen floors of linoleum blend with the color schemes of walls, furniture, and draperies. Rugs are placed on these floors as on any perma- nent floor.
 Armstrong's Linoleum is sold in good furniture and department stores in rich plain colors, beautiful two-tpne Jaspe effects, parquetry inlaids, tile inlaids, carpet inlaids, and pleasing printed de- signs. Estimates furnished by, linoleum contractors or house furnishers will sur- prise you at the low cost of replacing worn wooden floors or installing Arm- strong's Linoleum floors in new home.

when exposed to air, turns to a tough, solid film of skin. This film is smooth and rubbery and practi- cally waterproof When mixed with powdered cork these two substances unite perfectly. The tough oil skin, com- bined with the cork, becomes remarkably durable. The daily tread of thousands of feet makes little impression upon it. Also, it can be printed with patterns or designs that do not fade; or it can be colored throughout its entire thickness with colors that are as permanent as the linoleum itself. This is what is known as inlaid linoleum.
 These are the qualities that linseed oil gives to linoleum.
