needs a tonic to help her over the hard places.
When that time comes to you, you know what tonic
to take—Cardui, the woman's tonic. Cardui is com-
posed of purely vegetable ingredients, which act
gently, yet su:ely, on the weakened womanly organs,
and helps build them back to strength and health.
It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak,
ailing women in its past half century of wonderful
success, and it will do the same for you.
You can't make a mistake in taking
CARDUI
The Woman's Tonic
Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark.,
says: "I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth,
for women. Before 1 began to take Cardui, 1 was
so wea'n. and nervous, and had such awful dizzy
spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and
as strong as 1 ever did, and can eat most anything."
Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers.

Clark Griffith.
him were more precious than rubles
und diamonds when 'we bumped to-
gether one summer afternoon; It was
a big game, a most Important game,
and I really had to win It. I loved
Tom Tucker very much, but I loved
my sulary more.
"The battle was a ho- one, running
along on pretty even terms til! near
the close, when we managed to get a
couple on the bases nnJ'good old Uncle
Anson did the rest with one of those
murderous hits that they don't make
now, the old man not being there to
soak them. That Boston bunch was
never whipped till the last mau wus
counted out, and they went after me
strong in the death rally. First thing
I knew they had the eushions'populous,
two down, and old Tom Tucker stand-
ing firmly at the plate. I worked him
Into biting at two wide ones, then fed
him two more, wfflch he refused to
reach after. It was conjin$ down to
cases and no mistake.
"Just at this juncture 1 happened
to remember a trick of lnfloor base-
ball—the enormous ujshoot which is
put on an indoor ball by swinging it,
underhand, with the knuicttes upper-
most and the ball rollfcg off the palm.
It causes a hlfge upshoot ball, but is
not practicable for outdoor ball be-
cause, at the greater pitching distance,
tile ball would lose all its speed long
before it reached the platter.
I decided to throw that tall just as
a desperate experiment, ami I threw it.
The globule sauntered alonfc, way low,
below Tom's kneellne, ai.d he stood
scoffing at it. Then, just as the ball
came parallel with, him, 11 leaped and
whirled over the plate, while the um-
pire yelled.'Strike itree!'
Old Toil! Tucker laid down his bat
and started toward :ue, with evidence
of much excitement on his face, '.>ut 1
was already on my way, and was go-
ing fast. That night he came to the
lutel looking for me and . ubllcly an-
nounced that lie Intcsdefl to slay n.e
on sight, but I wasn't in and he never
got his hands upon me."
Poultry Pointers.
Fewer birds, better cure, more profit,
should be the aim. Plenty of pure,
fresh water fills the egg case, likewise
milk adds thereto.
The hens will pay a gcofl price for
any cull fruit or vegetables.
Separate your early pullets and give
extra care, eggs at 30 cents should be
some Inducement.
Plan out your campaign, don't wait
until you have to do It.
The exact condition of the School
Land Deparlinent and its funds, owing
to the deliberate policy of the demo-
cratic administration of hiding and
juggling facts and figures, is hard to
ascertain. The School Land Depart-
j mem has never published a complete
official report for the information ot
| the public. Occasionally, when the
Governor requested information, an
incomplete typewritten report would
be made for his use. Notwithstand-
ing, there are some things which the
Board has not been able to coficual
front the public whicb givfl an ox-
ample of the manner In which the de-
partment is conducted.
The law, fnr Instance, requires that
the principal of the school fund shall
never be reduced; and that, when
loaned upon agricultural lands of the
State, the rate of interest shall be 5
per cent; that when an application for
a loan shall be made that the land
shall be appraised at its fair cash
value; proofs of that value may be re-
quired by the Board, and that in no
case shall the Board loan to exceed
60 per cent of the. appraised talue of
the land which Is given as security for
the loan.
Loans Bigger Than Security.
The purpose of this law, of course,
was to maintain such a margin of se-
curity as to make the loan absolutely
good under all circumstances, and in
that way to fulfill the requirement
that the principal sum of the school
fund should never be reduced. But
the public records of counties where
Joans have been made show conclu-
sively that a system of favoritism
has prevailed, and that many loans
have been made on insufficient secur-
ity.
A complete examination of the rec-
ords of Roger Mills County, for In-
stance, disclosed that in that county
there was loaned, in 1914, an aggre-
gate of at least $131,400, and that, the
aggregate assessed value of the land
given to the Board to secure these
loans was only $130,422—actually more
money had been loaned than was given
for security! On the basis required
by the law (50 per cent of the value)
that total amount loaned on lands
worth 5130,422 should have been not
more than $65,211, instead of $131,400.
The Guilty Ones Shielded.
Although this condition in Roger
Mills County was brought to the at-
tention of the members of the Board,
in whose hands this fund is entrusted,
by republicans in 1914, and though
these facts were confirmed later by an
investigation made by the State Ex-
aminer and Inspector, no effort was
made to prosecute those guilty of this
misuse of the school children's money.
In fact. Governor Williams treated
the matter with contempt, and stated,
in referring to Mr. Parkinson's report,
that it "should satisfy the curiosity of
the republloans!"
Amount of School Fund.
Any good business man will con-
clude that a very large part of the
school money loaned out recklessly In
such manner Is as good as lost to the
State, and the school land fund is
easllv the biggest and most important
fund in control of the administration.
At the beginning of statehood, Okla-
homa, through the generosity of a re-
publican congri'ss. had lands and cash
HCliool funds of the value of $30,000,-
000.00. which to date, though exact
figures are not available, should, be-
cause of the Increase in the value of
the land, amount ti> not less than
$40,000,000.
At the commencement of statehood,

NATURE WARNS
Against Using Calomel.
The sickening,nauseatiuK feel-
ing that follows the use of calo-
mel is the natural result cjf dis
arranging your entire system.
Doctors everywhere are agree-
ing that the action of calomel is
much too strong, and leaves the
body sick and weakened.
LIV-VER-LAX is a wonderful
substitute for calomel, that has
all of its good effects and none
of its bad ones. It acts sooth-
ingly but thoroly on the liver,
cleansing it of bile, and ifidd'ng
the entire sys'em of stagnating
poisons.
LIV-VER-LAX is strictly a
harmless vegetable compound,
and is guaranteed to give satis-

Catarrhal Oeafness
Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as the.y can
not reach the diseased portions
of the ear. There is only one way
to cure catarrhal deafness and
that is by a constitutional reme-
dy. Catarrhal deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the eustachian
tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or
Imperfect hearing, and when it
s entirely closed,deafness is the
result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed for-
ever. Many cases of deafness are
caused bv catarrh, which is an
inllamed condition of the muc-
ous surfaces Ball's Catarrh Cure
acts thru the blood on the muc-
ous surfaces of the system.
We will give $100 for any case
of catarrhal deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's CatarrhCure.
