SEVERE PUNISHMENT
Of Mrs. Chappell, of Five Tears’
Standing, Relieved by Cardm.
Mt. Airy, N. C.—Mrs. Sarah M. Chap-
pell of this town, says: “I suffered for
five years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my punishment
was more than any one could tell.
I tried most every kind of medicine,
but none did me any good.
I read one day about Cardui, the wo-
man's tonic, and I decided to try it. I
had not taken but about six bottles until
I was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines I had
tried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked so well, and I tola them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it.”
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
If so, let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial. We feel confident it will help you,
just as it has a million other women in
fhe past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won’t regret it All druggists.

After the War.
Will the prosperity of the
United States outlast the period
of the war? That question has
caused great anxiety in business
circles, and has led to much dis-
cussion. It has even entered in-
to national politics; for the two
parties have disagreed, as they
always disagree, about the effect
of the tariff on business, what-
ever may be the kind of tariff in
force at the time.
That is an interesting question
for the politicians, but The Com-
panion does not discuss it. For
the general problem is largely
independent of the controversy.
The present prosperity results
from the extraordinary condi-
tions created by the European
war; and what is to happen after
the war will result from equally
extraordinary conditions abroad,
wholly different from those of to-
day, and more powerful in effect
than any tariff provisions.
The hastily improvised muni-
tions factories will have no more
orders; the demand for numerous
accessories required by armies in
the field will cease; our exports
of automobiles, clothing, boots,
horses, areoplanes and many
other articles will greatly dimin-
ish. But that is only half the
story. The very fact that th©
world will be at peace under un-
precedented conditions of finan-
cial and industrial exhaustion,
and that there will be an un-
heard-of deficiency everywhere
of a thousand articles of neces-
sity in daily life, indicates how
great will be the activity required
to restore the equilibrium be-
tween supply and demand. It
will be a great opportunity.
In all the oountries at war mil-
lions of men have been taken
from active productive employ-
ment and made soldiers; that is,
consumers and nonproducers.
Other millions have been drawn
away from the occupations of
civil life, and set at work making
material of war. As long as war
lasts, those peaceful occupations
therefore must be short-handed.
It is unlikely that they have been
able to supply the normal domes-
tic requirements. They oannot
have been able to produce any-
thing like the amount that they
were accustomed to export. We
know for a fact that the export
trade of all the countries has
greatly diminished. For one il-
lustration. the exports of British
produce to the countries of Cen-
tral and South America were
valued at forty million dollars
less in 1915 than in 1914—a re-
duction of one fourth; and Great
Britain has less difficulty on the
sea than any other belligerent.
The foreign trade of Germany
has been non-existent for two
years and more.
In every country of the globe
except our own there is a defi-
ciency of nearly every kind of
merchandise; the industrial na-
tions of Europe, so far from be-
ing able to make that deficiency
good, will be occupied for years,
perhaps for a decade, in restor-
ing their own countries to a nor-
mal condition. Simply to do that
they will want our cotton more
than ever; there will be a great
market for our iron and steel;
Germany must start anew in pro-
viding itself with copper; all our
surplus foodstuffs will be in de-
mand. Since, owing to the cas-
ualties of war, those countries
will have a shortage of labor,
they oannot immediately or soon
produce a great exportable sur-
plus. It will be our own fault if
we do not win a place in markets
in America, Asia and Africa
where hitherto the European
oountries have occupied the
ground almost exclusively.
Is that an optimistic view of
the future? If we have the en-
terprise to seize our opportunity,
it is a conservative view. At all
events, until we have tried to
take advantage of it and have
failed, we need not be anxious
for the future,—Youth’s Com-
panion.

Sunday afternoon John Rei-
singer, of Lake Victor, arid Mias
Alice Clements wore married at
the home of the bride’s parents,
Mr. and Mrs. J. A. dements, at

nouncing the vows that made
them husband and wife. Only

were present.
Mr. and Mrs. Reisinger left

home near Lake Victor.
Mr. Reisinger is a son of Wm.
Reisinger of Lake Victor.
G. W. (Elements and family of

cording secretary of Texas.

Population of Dallas Shows largest
Gain.
Dallas has outstripped all oth-
er Texas cities for gains in pop-
ulation since 1910 and has taken
first rank with a total of 124,527
inhabitants, according to figures
obtained from the Census Bu-
reau of the United States De-
partment of Commeroe.
San Antonio is a second, with
a population of 123,831. The
population of Dallas is confined
to an area of seventeen and
three-tenths square miles within
the city limits, against an area
of thirty -six square miles for San
Antonio. The figures for Dallas
do not include the population of
five large suburbs, one of which
is Highland Park.
The statistics were furnished
John R, Babcock, assistant to
the president of the Chamber of
Commerce and Manufacturers’
Association, by Sam L. Rogers,
director of the Census Bureau,
and were based on July 1, 1916
Houston is oredited with a
population of 112,303, Fort Worth
104,562, and Waco 33,385.
President Louis ' Lipsitz of the
Chamber of Commerce said the
Census Bureau’s report merely
substantiated the association’s
recent estimate of 135,278, which,
included all the suburbs. The
population in 1910 was 92,104.—

*6rr'HEY that won’t be
counseled can’t b e
helped.” This stor'e is al-
ways glad to have sugges-
tions from customers bearing
upon its sto nks or its service.
Sometimes we think perhaps
we are too close to the inside
workings of the store and
not close enough to the
outside viewpoint.
We want to “see ourselves
as others see us,” and there-
fore welcome criticisms. It
is not less work that we need
but more work in the right
direction—work that pro-
duces and that may perhaps
entail sacrifices because
work is a dispeljer of fears
and as essential to success
and usefulness’as the human
-body is to food and rest.
Without a ready acceptance
of suggestions, we can’t
make this store as ready as
we want it.
