“MY HEALTH
IS PERFECT”
So Says a North Carolina Lady
In Telling What She Owes
to Cardui, the Wom
an’s Tonic
Mt. Airy.’N- C.—Mrs. Ada Hull, of this
place, says: “Abouttsix years ago I got
in very bad health. I suffered terrible
pains in ray abdonuen and back. I
dreaded to see the sun rise and 1 dread
ed to see it set, for I suffered such
agony- No one except myself will ever
know how badly It suffered, The doctor
said I was suffering as a result of the
menopause.
As nothing gave • me any relief, I
asked the doctor if I hadn't better try
Cardui. He said, ‘lit might help you,’
and told my husband to get me a bottle.
At this time 1 was so weak I could not
lift my head, and my voice was«so weak,
people had to lean towards thie bed to
hear what I said. I looked so *bad and
had such a dark coQor that I looked like
t dead woman, and my relativesUhought
I would never get up again.
I took one bottle of Cardui amd it re
lieved the pain and suffering \so much
that my husband got another bottle, and
that Improved m-e still more. I began
to strengthen and gradually got well. I
have now had better health for six
years than I ever had in all my life. I
have taken no medicine since, and my
health is perfect.
Cardui is the finest medicine a wom
an could use.”

Are Good Manners On the
Decline, and If So, Why?
Bj DOLLY DALRYMPLE
A lot of people declare that “good
manners” are on the decline these days,
and the question naturally arises if ao,
why?
Not a few attribute the cause to the—
telephone.
It seems to be the impression that
people are tempted to make more im
polite remarks over the wire to un
seen parties, than they would make If
they were speaking ‘face to face” with
the same people.
Perhaps the Impatience that we un
consciously cultivate in regard to the
telephone has something to do with it.
Men grow impatient 1^ they fcave to
wait a second for a telephonic connec
tion, even though they are saving a
great deal of time. If they had to go

out to see the man and were obliged
to wait for a few minutes before an
audience was granted, they would never
dream of venting their impatience on
the doorkeeper.
Of course, the telephone has made us
more impatient over delays, even if
some of us have been able to preserve
our good manners, but a story which
recently came to my knowledge show's
that the average telephone manners un
doubtedly need a little ‘ brushing up.”
A woman who was visiting in Bir
mingham wished to look up an old
and dear friend whom she had not seen
for many years, in fact, not since the
friend had married and moved to the
city. She had married a Mr. Blankley.
but the lady who was seeking her did
not know the husband's initials, nor
their address.
Her only hope, she .felt, lay in the
telephone directory, in which she found
six Blankhys Any one of ft hem might,
be the one she wanted; but which one?
She resolved to begin with the first,
and work down the list until she
reached the one she sought. She rang
up the first Mrs. Blankley. who an- j
swered the telephone herself. She ap- !
peared to listen impatiently to the ex
planation offered, and, before the story
was finished snapped out that she was
not the one wanted and hung up the i
receiver.
The next three following were vari
ants of the first; no worse, yet not i
much better. One of those who answered
was a man, wrho said there did not hap
pen to be any Mrs. Blankley in his
house. The fifth turned out to be the
friend who wras sought, so the quest
was ended; but ever since the lady has
been w'ondering whether if she had
tried Number Six she would have found
her any more polite than the others.
I don’t know why, but somehow being
summoned to the telephone only to find

that it is the “wrong number'' makes us
all impatient.
We should remember that It is not the
fault of the person who gets us, instead
of the voice she expected to hear, and she
does not want us any more than we wrant
her. yet her tone is usually apologetic, and
certainly we In turn should be equally as
poiite, but somehow’ we are not.
if we thought that our voices could be
recognized (and often they are), probably
we would be more considerate in our re
plies.
If the person at the other end of the wire
should happen to appear at our front
door and Inquire for us, and we happened
to go to the door ourselves, we would no
more think of using that tone of voice
to them than we’d think of flying, for it
would be equivalent tt> slamming the door
right In their face, and no “perfect lady’’
would do that. Instead, we'd be apolo
gizing “to beat the band," \t anything
more happened, and we’d be very much
ashamed if we felt we'd hurt anybody or
given offense.
It is the same way as with the tele
phone in other lines; we are impatient and
"snap out” things to people when the
street cars are late; if the automobile
fails to work as it should we grow impa
tient and peevish; if we are traveling by
rail, and the train is several hours late,
again our “nawsty dispositions" assert
themselves, and altogether modern times
and the way we live have sort of demor
alized our manners, and “undermined"
our old-fashioned courtesy and good be
havior.
Which reminds me of a little incident I
heard the other day which has to do with
yoking women who boarded a street car
and who had just six minutes left to meet
an Important engagement.
As she got In the car she rushed to
the front platform and said to the motor
man:
“Can’t you go faster than this?”
The motorman answered blandly: Much
faster, but you see I have to stay with
my car."

“I know that many letters mean that
a response would brighten a cheerless life,
and so I offer books Jo any one who cares
to pay postage on them. They are old—
the remains of a life collection—fiction,
theological, general, but if any one will
write me and specify what he or she
wants I will write describing what 1 have
and what the postage will be. I also have
many old postcards. Regarding the re
quests for dar trumpets, I would like to
say that I have lived with deafness in the
family all my life and have a couple of
trumpets I could donate, but few deaf
people know when they need a trumpet.
These#are only for people who cannot
hear any conversation except when it is
shouted directly in the ear. Then these
help. They are ‘conversation tubes.* Most'
deaf people think a trumpet is all they
need to hear as well as ever. Sad to say,
trumpets are no aid to hearing m church
or in a room full of talkers. They are.
for Individual conversation. The ear

some w'ho are ingenious or young enough
to uge them as th^y would any scientific
appliance, but most deaf people ar^ old
and unable to understand the use of there

requests for an ear trumpet can be helped
by the tubes I have, I will gladly send
< them. This letter is too long for publi

trumpets. At any rate, I shall be giad to
