I was all run down from nervous- Hess and overwork and had to resign my position and take a rest. I found that I was not gaining my strength and health as fast as I could wish, and as your Wine of Cardui was recommended as such a good medicine for the ills of our sex, I bought a bottle and began using it. 1 was satisfied with the results from tne use or tne first bottle and took three more and then found I was restored to good health and strength and able to take up my work with renewed vigor. 1 consider it a fine tonicand excellent for worn-out, nervous condition, and am pleased to endorse it.

Many Persons Thought Water Was Too Dense. When It was first proposed to lay a marine cable many intelligent people said it would not sink to the bottom, but would remain suspended at a certain depth because of the density of the water due to pressure from above. Of course the pressure increases with the' depth on all sides of the cable in its descent through the sea, but aa practically everything on earth Is more compressible than water it is obvious that the Iron wire, yarn, gutta-percha and copper conductor forming, the cable must be more compressed as they descend.

Thus the cable constantly increases in density, or specific gravity, in going down, while the egual bulk of water surrounding it continues to have, practically speaking, very nearly the THURSDAY, OCT. at 1 p. m.
