For nearly ten years, at different times, Mrs. Mary Jin!:s
of Treadway, Tenn,, suffered with womanly troubles. She
says: "At last, I took down and thought I would die. I
could not sleep. I couldn't eat I had pains all over. The
doctors gav-b me up. I read that Cardui had helped so
many, and I began to take it, and it cured me. Cardui
saved my lifel Now, I can do anything."

Keeping Things Clean
Don't forget that the kettles
coffee, tea and water, must all be
cleaned as often as the other
cooking kettles. Fill the eoflee
or tea pots nearly full of warm,
or boiling water, and add to
each kettle two heaping cable
oonfuls of saleratus; Jet boil
for twenty minutes, then pour
the water out, wash - weli with
cltar warm water, and find out
the difference. The tea kettle
must be washed, and use the
saleratus in this also. Many
people do not regard these ket
tles as cooking vessels, and rare
ly take the trouble to wash them
out.

Obituary.
The following lines in memory
of Malvin N. Hale are written
for the comfort of his dearly be
loved, yet heatbroken family.
The subject of this sketch was
a young man with many noble
traits and a beautiful character.
He was 21 years of age and a
victim of consumption. His 21st
birthday was celebrated at his
home near Ruasell Springs, on
Feb. 2 ah 1913, by his many rel
atives and friends and from
that time on he gradually grew
worse, until Wednesday evening
March 26, when with a smile of
heavenly joy on his face, his
spirit took its flight to that beau
tiful and bright beyond.
Malvin was liked by all who
knew him and the pride of a
fond father and mother. He
leaves a father and mother,
brothers and sisters to mourn
his loss, but we would say to the
bereaved family, 'Weep not as
those who have no hope" for
Malvin is not dead but sleepeth.
The bereaved famiiy have the
deepest sympathy of the entire
community in this their saddest
affliction.
Funeral services were held at
the French Valley Church, by
Rev. Montgomery after which
the remains were laid to rest in
the family burying ground, there
to await the resurrection morn.
We ask God's blessing on the
bereaved family and that they
submit their will to Him "who
doeth all things well."
C. C. Hale.
Richest Indian.
The richest American Indian
in the world has been discovered.
He is Lon C. Hill, 53 years old, a
"full blood" Choctaw, and his
claim to being the Rock feller of
red men is based upon his pos
sessions, valued at $6,000,000.
Hill lives in Harhngen, Tex.
In fact he owns the whole town
but it is only a mite in the midst
of his vast estate, which extends
to Bronsville, 25 miles away.
He has 11 motor cars to make
the run from his residence in
Harlingten to his business office
in Bronsville.
This Indian Croesus is a living
testimonial that members of his
race need not be wards of Uncle
Sam unless they so choose. He
started his emphe on a capital of
$200, and has never received
anything from the Government.
Like so many of his "white
brother" captains of industry,
he is a self-made man in every
sense of the word." Not only is
he a shrewd business man, but a
clever lawyer as well, practicing
his profession in addition to over
seeing his big ranch.
Hill was one of the chief fact
ors in blazing the trail for civil
ization through the Rio Grande
valley, but of his early experi
ences he refuses to talk, con
tenting himself with shrugging
his broad shoulders about which
his long black hair falls in a
most picturesque manner.
There is one thing, however,
about which he will never- hesi
tate to talk, and that is the
price of sugar. As a sugar
grower and refiner that is of
much more interest to him than
the fact that he has risen so far
above the members of his own
race, and even above the great
majority of the "conquering
white men."

FIVE GENT MEAL
SOLVED PROBLEM
If Helped Reduce Expenses of
Domestic Science Course.
ATTENDANCE 100 PER CENT,
Colored High School of Owensboro
Among the First to Offer Full Four
Year Instruction In Household Arts.
Every Girl Pupil and Several Boys
Now Enrolled.
Three years ago, when very few
high schools in Kentucky were offer
ing a course in domestic science, the
Colored High school at Owensboro
made a beginning. The board of edu
cation there at that time, like many
others in the state, was hampered by
a lack of funds. The board also had
before it the experience of other
schools where the expense account of
the domestic science course had proved
quite a burden. It was a difficult
problem, but the faculty of the high
school felt that the work could be put
upon a basis that would make it al
most self sustaining.
j Today the Colored High school ol
Owensboro has a four year course in
domestic science and will graduate
seven girls taat lmve taken this full
course. Durinir these four vears onlv
three girls have failed to take the
, course, and this year 100 per cent of
the girls in the high school take do-
' mestIc sclence. Besides these girls.
lt: miSht be well to add that there are
, eight bovs enrolled in the classes, so
1 that the figures should really read
, 100 per cent plus.
' A five cent dinner and lunch counter
handled by the domestic science de-
partment have made this splendid
. work Possible. The cost of material
, in both cooking and sewing classes
has been met each year by the board
of education paying a deficit of about
$5 a month.
The preparation of this five cent din
ner would seem to be a definite loss in
some of the technical training, but it
appears otherwise when one visits the
j Swears to be of absolute value in
tne general training, as the girls are
used in small relays, so that each girl
in the school comes to this special
i T afT- Th class book.
t WU1CQ is carefully kept, shows exactly
' the work the pupil has done each time
If she has made biscuit and after
ward cleaned the stove this week the j
next she will probably prepare a salad J
and clean the refrigerator. In the !
FIVE CEXT MEAIi.
course of the school year she will have
covered a certain definite amount of
practical housekeeping work. There
is the added value that she has pre
pared this food in quantities sufficient
for au ordinary family, and not in lab
oratory quantities.
It might be urged that a high school
is not a vocational school, and that
our schools are not preparing girls for
lunch room service. This is all true,
but the greatest indictment brought
against our schools today is that they
do not give our boys and girls a grip
on live, real, everyday things. The
work in this school eenis to give this
and at the same time helps to sustain
Itself while giving all the pupils some
thing that is wholesome to eat at a
remarkably low price.
There are high schools all over the
country that cannot afford domestic
science. There are many others where
the girls are doing laboratory domestic
science, and a large percentage of the
pupils go to the corner grocery or a
cheap confectionery for their noon
luncheon.
The value as well as the economy of
serving the children with an appetiz-
Ing, inexpensive meal, scientifically
prepared, is obvious. Their health is
conserved and a practical course in
domestic science is made possible
Is it not possible to gain both things
at the same time by a carefully pre
pared course of study?
It certainly is worth thinking about,
for people everywhere are looking tc
the school for more real every day ef
ficiency. Don't Get Into a Rut.
A rut in the road is bad enough, but
a rut in your life work is infinitely
worse. Get out of the rut and come
to Louisville April 30. May 1. 2 and

5,000 people together who are interest
