Coving ton, Ky.?"Everybody thought

" Nobody believed I could ever get well.

One day a Ladies' Birthday Almanac |
fell into my hands. I read it and told my j
husband that I would try Cardui, for I
believed in what the book said that this
medicine would do.
I bought a bottle, took the medicine,
and began to get belter right away. I
could feel how it was doing me good.
After I had taken five bottles the pain and
hurting was all gone, and 1 felt so well
and happy.
During the lime I was sirk 1 couldn't
do anyt hing, no sweeping, no housework
of any kind, and sometimes my head
would hurt from sun-up to sun down. .
Now all this has changed, and I have to
thank Cardui for it.
Put my name in the papers, .so that
everybody may know what Cardui has
done for me and that others may try this
iiiodicinc, which, I am sure, will help
them, too."
If you suffer as Mrs. Owens did, take
lier advice. Try Cardui. It may be just
what you need.

it Is needless to stule, u Liberal and
a Scotchman, for moat of the lucra?

Supremo Court, as registrar of tho
Court of Criminal Appeal) as iiiHHlcr
of tho Crown Olllce, und us the King's
coroner. Sir John, a mau Ol consider?
ably ov2r sixty, is known in this coun?
try, Lot only by his numerous works
on various legal subjects, but also as
one of the greatest authorities In the
British Empire on the subject of In?
ternational law, which has won for htm
all sorts of honors from the govern?
ments of Conttn'intal Europe.
The olllce ot King's remembrancer la a
very ancient one. In the tluys of the early
Norman rulers, of the l'luntagunots,
and of tho tudors, thj King's remem?
brancer was a high olhclul of the royul
court of thu exchequer, and he was
expected to keep u record of thosu
nobles whosj lines and dues had re?
mained unpaid, to look utter the num?
erous royalties of the crown, to ut
tcild to the cavtles and estutes that
hail be'-., for Iruason forfeit |il to the
sovereign, and to supervise tho duo
payment of the tlrst fruits. Many of
these duties havt bjen taken over
by the inland Revenue and Treasury
Departments, und while most ol the
members of his stuff, such us tho
"Fllacar." the "Clerk of the Pipe/! the
"SuMvoyor of ihr* Green Wax,*' the
"Clerk of the Est coats." and tho "Clerk
of the Nlchllls," and of the "First
Fruits,'' have been legislated out of

self remains.
Ills duties as remembrancer arc con

Luid C-htct Justice, at tho ceremony
called the "Pricking of the Sheriffs, '
by the Chancellor of the Excnequor.
on th j morrow of St. Martin's Day;
attendance at the swearing In of tho
lAjrd Mayor of I he (Uly ot London;
and the acknowledgment of noinage
for the hoidiin; of crnwa lands. He
also supervise.-, th ? periodical testing
of the various stundiU'ds of coinage,
known as Hie Trial ol the Pyx.
An important otttce which Sir John
win henceforth till Is that of King's
coroner It Is an olllce which dates
from tii'- time wii :n the monarch's
court sheltered any tiujnber of pictur?
esque vagabonds, and strange deaths

Jury in such cases has always been
impaneled either from members of the
royal household or else from royal
warrant holders, that Is to say. tho
regularly appointed purv?yors of the
court and household.
The most recent occasion when tlie
King's coroner war called upon to ar
range for an Inquest was In 190s. when
:i baconlc necessary to hull an inquest

where It Is preserved at Windsor Cas?
tle. Tho man's horse had slipped whllo
?nterlng tho gateway of Buckingham
Palace, and buforo It had been possible
to slop the van, tho wh.eels of tho
latter had passed ovor him, killing
him lnstajitly. Tin Jury, aa required by
law. was composed of twelve men, all
members of tho royal household, as
USUUl, who returned a verdict of ac?
cidental death. No ?xeeption was tak
cn to this.
But this method of composition of
tho Jury was severely condemned on
tho occasion of the murder In Saint
James's Palaca, of Senlls, the confi?
dential Swiss vnlct of that Duke of
Cumberland who became' King of Han?
over on tho accession of Tils niece,
Que;n Vlctorlu, to the throne of Great
Brltnln, In 1837. Und the murder been
Investigated, by an ordinary. coroVer
aud Jury, there Is no doubt that the
Intense popular animosity against tIt3
D?ke of Cumberland would have led
to a vordlet Imputing to him the crime
oij tho plea of circumstantial evldenc;".
But, fortunately for hltn. the matter
was confided to tho King's coroner,
and a Jury selected from mimbers of
tho royal household, In accordance with
his directions, rendered a verdict of
murder against a party or parties un?
known.

this kind; but It is to serve purely as

[Special to The Times-Dispatch. J
Lexington. Va., February 9.?The
call of Dr. John h. Latane to the pres?

was to confer with tho Montana au?
thorities. Such proved to bo tho case,
and now the University of Montana
uwalls his decision.
Dr. butane took his >"h. D- at'Johns

is very popular among the students,
who appreciate his uuliity us a teacnor'
und respect hi in us u man. Therefore,
tnu possibility of his leaving Ih viewed
by all with regret.
Of course, no detlnite decision has
been reached by hint us yet. Montana
presents u large Held tor service, ami
tile university Itself Is a tlourishiut?
institution, bavins about 280 student:-,
and lust year un income of {174,000.
Dr. Dulane Is a very progressive man
and would lit in with thu Western
spiidt und people. All these things aro
being taken into consideration. On the
oilier hand Dr. Lutunc Is vory fond of
his work in history, nnd that would
necessarily have to be relegated to the
background on account of tho now du?
ties that would devolve upon him.
Then, too. having passed most of Itia
life In the South, he would bo re?
luctant to move himself und family
into u place so far distant.
These and many more elements muss
come into his final determination, anil
Hie outcome can hardly be predicted.
Certain it is that the students and hit)
many friends In town and Stale trust,
that: he may see his way clear to re?
main In the present Held of work.
