Jacobi Stricken While in Automobile, Die : ing Short While Later Mr. Joseph N. Jacobi died sudden ly Friday morning about 10 o'clock, While, in company with Mr. Lin wood Latta in the latter's automobile, Mr. Jacobi suffered a fainting spell. He was ' at once taken to his home and. expired almost immediately aft er arriving there. Mr. Jacobi had been in poor health for some time, but his death, was en tirely unexpected, and has cast a gloom over a circle -of hundreds of friends throughout the State and this community: Mr. Jacobi was' in the forty-eighth year of his age. He was the son of the late Nathaniel and Rosalie Jacobi. He is survived by his wife and one child; also a brother, Mr. Marcus W. j&coui. He was educated in the sehools of the city and at Bingham school and since en.rlv ' manhood he was associated with his late father and' his brother in the operation of the large hardware business conduct ed by the N. Jacobi Hardware Com pany. His largeness of vision and splendid business ability was in great measure responsible for the success ful business maintained by this firm: For more than .30 years he was as sociated with this firm, and his busi ness career is one of unexampled fi delity to duty. He. was always alive to every civic interest of the community and serv ed in various capacities looking to the promotion of the city's welfare. He was a member of many organizations, civic and fraternal, among which are: St. John's Lodge of Masons No. 1, Cape Fear Lodge of Odd Fellows No. 2, Wilmington Lodge of Elks No. 532, North State Lodge of Bnai Brith No. 222, and the Rotary Club. He was a faithful' member of the Temple of Is rael and . served as treasurer of that congregation for many years. Mr. Jacobi's jovial disposition en deared him to many friends. In mat ters of charity he contributed in large measure to every worthy cause and his generosity could always be de pended upon.

Still, justlfigure out that when a door is left open, the tem perature of "the room goes down, and someone makes a dive for the fire and puts more coal on to bring the heat up.

CHANGE FOR THE BETTER And Pains in Sides Relieved, By Use of Cardui, the Wo Man's Tonic, Says Texas Lady Kemp, Texas. Mrs. Minnie Cheek, ,this town writes: "I suffered with pains in my side . . . and coudn't stand on my feet, at times. Couldn't do my work, only what had to be done. I had q. physician and he gave me medi cine, tho' It didn't do' me any good and he advised an operation. I had read in the Ladies' Birthday Almanac of Cardui, so I decided to try it. When I had taken one botUe, I felt the change for better. I took 9 or 10 bottles and have been well ever since. I recommend Cardui to all suffering women. When my husband told Dr. , our family physician, I was tak ing Cardui, he said it Was a good tonic for me. I will never cease 'praising it. It built up my system and strengthen ed me more than anything I ever done." Cardui is a purely vegetable tonic medicine, composed of ingredients which have been recognized by medi cal writers for many years, as of value in the treatment of ailments pe culiar to women, and thousands of voluntary letters similar to the above are received every year, from women users of Cardui, who have actually proven this to be true. If you are weak and run-down from womanly trouble'' try Cardui, the woman's tonic. All druggists. Adv.

Directions for Operating Fig. 1 In this form the Fowler is used after plowing: and harrowinjr to prepare a seed bed. All the fine soil slips between the upper and lower blades, forming a seed Ufd which is a perfect mulch. AH clods, trash or stones, unable to pass through the narrow space between the upper and flower blades, slide along to the ends of the blades and are left in the middles between the .rows. In doing this the upper blades more just above the surface of t he ground and act like fenders. No other cutlvator will remove,, from the seed bed all clods, stones and trash and leave a perfectly level surface consisting only of fine pulverized soil, in which to plant the seed. The Fowler is also used in ths for i. when run deep, to throw up a raised seed bed, completing the bed at one trip through. Directions for. Operating Fig. 2 With the Plow Foot in the center removed the Fowler is used for early cultiva tion astride the row; barring off and cultivating, both sides of the row at one trip through.

In thi 5 case the Plow Foot is replaced and the long Blade on the left destroys all weeds and further pulverizes the soil between the rows. Note that the upper Blades are taken off for this work. As' 'all trash and clods have been removed from the proximity of the plants by the previous cultiva tions astride the row nothing Is now left within reach of the short Blade but a fine dust mulch which Is thrown to the roots. The clods and trash previously thrown to the middles now slip over the Blade without leaving their place in the center be tween the rows.
