Praises CardoL
Mnrrycrosa Ala— Tbe following la
from Mrs W J Daugherty this place:
"I will write a full statement of my
condition before I had taken Cardul
I was very weak I had not any nerve
at all and could not stand any noise
and had female complaints
At last my doctor told me to try
Cardul and I did so and I can say It
sure has cured me sound and well and
am glad to tell anyone what It did for
me and It will help any suffering
woman
I can’t praise Cardul enough I wish
every woman would believe what I say
and give Cardul a trial and they will
find my word to be true
Cardul la all I take In the way of
medicine We always keep It In the
house for my benefit
When I was told to try Cardul I did
not think I would but my friends kept
on at me until I got one bottle and It
did me so much good that I kept on
taking 1L
My back has got well my nerve Is
all right and my old tired feeling has
gone and I am stout and strong as a
woman can be I am glad to say It
was Cardul that I can praise for my
health"

WHEN CONFIDENCE-IS LOST
Man Who Fails to Do What He 8aya
Cannot Expect to Be Held In
Any Great Respect
I have long received with amiabil-
ity I hope the professions of all sorts
and conditions of men But after I
have heard their professions I wait
patiently to see their performance If
a man wishes me to consider him to
be loyal for example I must really
trouble him to show his quality when
put to the test and If he cannot do
so I may not say anything the next
time he comes around and professes
his loyalty but I will do a lot of think-
ing I wonder within my own head if
he really thinks that I am deceived
If he really thinks that I am as inno-
cent as I look That Is the rigid and
stern standard to which we hold each
other whether we realize it or not
You know the slang expression "He
Is a bad actor” You are not speaking
of the stage You mean he does not
do what he says and the minute you
find he does not do what he says then
it is all up so far as your trustfulness
and admiration and willing dealings
with him are concerned — Woodrow

Pooh!
Alice was very enthusiastic regard-

plishment Alice” replied the young

onion my superior"

German Prisoner In France Cleverly
Contrived to 8end Information
to Homo Folks
According to the Germans German
prisoners of war In France are not
always cared for aa luxuriously as
they might be If they were French
prisoners of war in Germany with no
harder task In hand than the cleaning
of Berlin's streets They tell of a
certain Hans Schmidt from a town In
Saxony who waa so unlucky as to be
surprised with bis companions on out-
post duty and carried off to a French
prison camp He fared no better than
many of hla countrymen In captivity
In fact be fared very badly But he
couldn't even try to let his friends at
home know how things were going
for fear of making bad worse At last
however he managed to give a hint
To an inquiry from home as to his
welfare be replied:
"It is Just as If I were at home In our
Forest Home"
Tbe French censor could not know
that Forest Home waa the name in
Schmidt's part of Saxony for the prison
devoted to the worst criminals
