HOW MUCH and OFTEN
Do OUR BODIES CHANGE?

There is no authority, think, for
putting the period of our complete
chemical change at seven years.
In the case of certain chemical
parts of our body, however, we are
told on good authority that there is
a complete replacement every six
wears. These are the minerals, par
ticularly calcium.
GAIL of our calcium" according
to Drs. C. c.. and S. M. Furnas, Tin
Man, Bread and Destimy) lis COM
pletely replaced about every SIX
wears, and the only way to maintain
the balance in the body is to take in
a sufficient quantity in the food. II
there is insufficient intake, the body
tries to make. adjustment but IS
never completely successful. 1t goes
on excreting calcium, taking 1t from
the bones and teeth"
Fleeing and transitory as may
be its habitation in your body dur
ing life, your chemical preservation
on this earth depends on the cal
cium in your body at death. 1t alone
survives "the drums and tram
plings" of the centuries.
The chalk cliffs of Dover, which
symbolic England itself to the
British heart, are made up of the
calcium compounds Of the mollusk
shells and urchin spines that were
dropped to the ocean bed hundred
million years ago. Large animal
bones and teeth have remained in
protected places almost intact for
millions of years. All we know OF
the human races first million years
ON earth is the calcium-made bones
and teeth that once were part of a
man, few stone chips and calcium
animal bone fish hooks.

Women: "BuiId-Up"
To Relieve Pain

A weak, rundown, undernourished
condition calls for attention!
Such q condition often enables
functional dysmenoryhea to get its
foothold. That's one thing which
leads to much of women's suffering
from headaches, nervousness, those
cramp-like pains. A good way to
relieve such pains, women by thou
sands have found, is by the proper
use of CARDUI. 1t stimulates a
tagging appetite, assists digestion
and assimilation; thus helps build
physical resistance to periodic pain.
Taken just before and during "the
time" many women also report
that CARDUI helps to ease the
pain and discomfort OF the period.

AAA Program Gets Off

Jackson, Miss, Nov. @Mississipp

administration of the 1910 AAA farm
program. according to t. M. Patter
son, administrative officer of the AAA.
who announced today that the 3
cotton acreage allotment for each
county in the state has already been
sent to the counties. The total acre
age for the state is 1852 800 acres.
This is the earliest distribution
we have ever made of the cotton
acreage allotments and every farm
err in the state will know before he
votes in the cotton marketing refer
endum on Saturday, December 8
what his allotment. will be for neN
year." said Patterson.
The county committees are now
determ ing the acreage allotment
for all producers in their counties.
Patterson said that for mos coun-
ties "the 1910 allotments are slightly
less than the 1889 county allotments
| This" he explained, sis due to the
| fact thai the latest revised estimates
| of 1887 cotton acreage made by the
| Bureau of Agricultural Economies are
| for most counties less than the es
| Inmates on which the 1889 cotton al
lotments were computed"
The administrator, however, stated
that in addition to the regular coun
ty allotment already made, mos
counties will receive some acreage
from the 4 percent reserve which wi.
be allotted in about the same man
ner as last year.
