Who “They” Are.
People are already returning
from their vacations which they
spent in the larger cities and
summer resorts to the home
cities. Often these people are
heard to make criticisms of
their home town; they com
pare their home with the cities
they have visited and often in
dulge in criticism of the city of
ficials or the people in general
who are designated as “they.”
It is good for people to visit oth
er cities and get ideas from
those places but the information
they get and the ideas they
form should be used to advan
tage and not solely for the pur
pose of criticism. Criticism is
good if it be the right kind.
Constructive criticism which is
accomplished by a remedy is
commonly known as a knocker
uses only destructive criticism
and wants to know why “they”
don’t do this or that. This is
well expressed in the following
lines taken from an exchange :
“Why don’t they keep the
street a little cleaner?”
You ask with deep annoyance
not undue;
“Why don’t they keep the park
a little greener?”
Did you ever stop to think that
they means YOU?

HELPLESS AS BABY
Down in Mind Unable to Work,
and Wbat Helped Her.
Summit Point, W. Va.—Mrs. Anna
Belle Emey, of this place, says: “I suf
fered for 15 years with an awful pain in
my right side, caused from womanly
trouble, and doctored lots for it, but with
out success. 1 suffered so very much,
that 1 became down in mind, and as help
less as a baby. 1 was in the worst kind
of shape, was unable to do any work.
I began faking Cardui, the womar’s
tonic, and got relief from the very first
dose. By the time I had taken 12 bot
tles, my health was completely restored.
1 am now 48 years years old, but fed as
mnit u I AtA »Iim nnlv Ift
Cardiff certainly saved me from losing
my mind, and 1 feel it my duty to speak
in Its fawr. I wish I had some power
over poor, suffering women, and could
make them know the good it would do
them."
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, it will certainly be
worth your while to give Cardiff a trial.
It has been helping weak women for
more than 50 years, and will help you,
too.
Try Cardiff. Your druggist sells it.
