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 surely, 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 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 I began to take Cardui, I was so weak and nervous, and had such awful dizzy spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and as strong as I ever did, and can eat most anything. Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers.

How did the United States- come to get that small corner of laud wnicb juts out from the extreme northern boundary of Minnesota? History of that little "nose" which sticks out into Canada from Minnesota and which eonstitutes the northernmost point of iha United States is very Interest! So under the treaty of 1783 the boundary between the United States and British possessions was fixed. A certain point on the Lake of the Woods was mutual ly agreed to as one starting point, this being considered the headwaters of the St. Lawrence river and great lakes system. At that time it was not known wheth er this point was north or south of the forty-ninth parallel, but It was known to be close to it. The understanding was that- from that point the boundary should go north or south to the forty ninth parallel, as the case might be. Later and moro accurate surveys showed that point was about twenty five miles north of the- forty-ninth par allel, and so at this place the boundary makes a jog above that line. Uncle Sam thus has a little pieco of territory of about a hundred square miles in extent north of tho general boundary. And the joke of it is that any one has to go by water in order to reach this little piece of territory unless he wants to go through Canada. Path finder. Grandma's Old Friend.

"How Wagner must have loved when be wrote that!" exelniiaed old King William of Prussia when he heard 'Tristan "mid Isolde" for the first time. We know now tfcrdugh the publication of Wagner's love letters and other bio graphical nud autobiographical mate rial that he was in love with Mathilde Wesendouck when he composed the opera. This passion was warp and woof of that immortal music drama, the greatness of which compelled Wag ner all the rest of his life to hold him self up to his highest level of produc tion. Frank Harris has pretty definitely proved that Shakespeare wrote "An tony and Cleopatra" under the Influ ence of a tragical and hopeless love for Mary Fitton. It has been declared by a great critic that "Antony and Cleo patra" has in it every shred of Shake speare's vitalizing power and that as tragedy it marks the zenith of his achievement. If it is indeed Mary Fit ton who is in it she possesses a monu ment more glorious than any memorial of stone ever raised to a potentate, a saint or a god. Not every man who lives by art is a Shakespeare or a Wagner, but every artist, creat or small, is subject to the same principle of the animating and glorifying power cf love.
