The next moment the door was

TERRIBLE WEAKNESS
\ True Picture of the Case of a
Finetown Lady, Who Was Finally
Relieved by the Use of Cardui.
Pinetown, N. C.—Mrs. L. V. Everett
of this place, writes: "I cannot tell
you how I suffered, for 1 had so many
curious feelings.
I was sic k all of the time, and 1
could not do my work.
I was jk>or, and very weak, and only
weighed a hundred pounds.
My back would nearly kill me. and I
would often almost die, with my head,
and other pains.
1 could not bear loud talkiug.
I could not find relief until my hus-
band got me a bottle of Cardui.
Now I weigh 150 pounds, and am
strong and well.
I live on a farm and do all of my
work, thanks to Cardui.
Although r 2. I am well and hearty,
and help work in the garden and do
the housework for a family of six.
I owe it all to Cardui."
Cardui, the woman's tonic medicine,
obtains its results by the power of its
unique, specific curative, strengthen-
ing ingredients, especially adapted
for use in cases .of womanly weak-
ness.

the snow and stood looking down at

The lust of battle was In Aunt Se

GREATLY ATTACHED TO IT
Husband Who Had "Married Money"
Acknowledged the Truth to
His Friends's Query.
Apropus of a beautiful young wife,
worth $40,000,000, who had just di-
vorced her penniless husband in or-
der to marry again, Henry E. Dlxey,
the comedian, said at a dinner in New
York:
"The young man who marries for
money has none too easy a time of it.
His rich wife is likely to tire of him
and throw him out in a few years, or
else she is likely to limit his allow-
ance to 25 or 50 cents a day.
" 'I married money,' a man once
said to me.

to It?' I asked.

Can't Get Away From It
Is it possible to nourish, strengthen and Re-
build the Brain by Food?
Every man who thinks uses up part of the
brain each day. Why don t It all disappear
and leave an empty skull In say a month of
brain work? Because the man rebuilds each
day.
If he builds a little less than he destroys,
brain fag and nervous prostration result sure.
If he builds back a little more each day. the
brain grows stronger and more capable. That
also is sure Where does man get the material
to rebuild his brain? Is It from air. sky or the
ice of the Arctic sea? When you come to
think atoout it. the rebuilding material must
be In the food and drink
That al*o is sure.
Are the brain rebuilding materials found in
all food ' lu a good variety but not la suitable
proportion in all.
To Illustrate: we know bones are made large
ly of lime and magnesia taken from food.
therefore to make healthy bone structure we
must have food containing these things. We
would hardly feed only sugar and fat to make
healthy bone structure in a growing child.
Likewise if we would feed in a skillful man
ner to insure getting what the brain requires
for strength and rebuilding, we must first know
what the brain Is composed of and then select
some article or articles (there are more than
one) that contain these elements
Analysis of brain by an unquestionable
authority. Geoghegan. shows of Mineral Salts.
Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined (Phos-
phate of Potash) 2.91 per cent of the total,
5.33 of all mineral Salts.
This Is over one-half.
Beaunls, another authority, shows "Phos-
phoric Acid combined" and Potash 73.44 per
cent from a total of 101.07.
Considerable more than one-half of Phos-
phate of Potash.
Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows: Potassium
and Phosphorus (which join and make Phos-
phate of Potash 1 is considerable more than
one-half of all the mineral salts in the food.
Dr Geo. W. Carey, an authority on the
constituent elements of the body, says: The
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic cell-salt. Potassium Phos-
phate (Phosphate of Potash). This salt unites
with albumen and by the addition of oxygen
creates nerve fluid or th« gray matter of the
brain. Of course, there is a trace of other
salt* and other organic matter in nerve fluid,
but Potassium Phosphate is the chief factor
and has the power within itself to attract, by-
Its itwn law of affinity, all things needed to
mad-ifacture the elixir Df life."
Futther on he says: "The beginning ar. 1 end
of the matter is to supply the lacking prii^ipie,
and in molecular form, exactly as natur* fur-
nlshtis it in vegetables, fruits and grain. To
supply deficiencies—this is the only la-w of
cure"
Tin natural conclusion is that if Phosphate
of POtash is the netted mineral elemeut in
brail and you use food which does not contain
it, ycu have brain fat because its dally lost is
not Supplied.
Ot . the contrary, if you eat food known to
be rich In this element, you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
bralivbuilding.
Mibd does not work well on a brain taat Is
broken down by lack of nourishment.
A peaceful and evenly poised mind Is neces-
sary to good digestion.
Worry, anxiety, fear. hate, etc., etc., directly
interfere with or stop the flow of Ptyalln, the
digestive juice of the mouth, and also inter
fere with the flow of the digestive juices of
stomach and pancreas.
Therefore, the mental state of the individual
has much to do (more than suspected) with
digestion.
Brain is made of Phosphate of Potash us
the principal Mineral Salt, added to albumen
and water.
Ora e-Nuts ounain th.v element as more
than one-half of all its mineral saits.
A healthy brain is important, if one would
"do things" In this world.
A man who sneers at "Mind" sneers at the
best and least understood part of himself.
That part which some folks believe links us
to the Infinite.
Mind asks tor a healthy brain upon which
to act, and Nature has defined a way to make
a healthy braiu and renew it day by day as it
Is used up from work of the previous day.
Nature's way to rebuild is by the use of
food which supplies the things required. Brain
rebuilding material is certainly fouud in
