Mrs. 3. C. Oreen of this place, says: "I suffered with womanly troubles so that 1 could hardly bit up. Two of the best doctors In our town treated me, and I tried different Hiedi cines, until I gave up all hope of ever getting well. One day, I decided to try pome Car dui. It did so much for me that I ordered some more, and it cured me! Today, I feel as well as I ever did la tuy life. The pains and the trouble are all gone. I feel like another pessoa In every way. I wish every sufferer could know what Cardui will do for sick women." A few doses of Cardui at the rlpht time, will save many a big doctor bill, by preventing serious sickness. It tones up the nervous system, and helps make pale cheeks fresh and rosy. Thousands of weak women have been restored to health and happiness by using Cardui. Suppose you try It. It may be just the mediciue you need. N. B Write In: l.adi' Advtjiw Dent.. Ch.tt.. none Medicine Co., rhiuaiKirwi. 7Nin.. for NrWni Instructions, and 64-page tHk.

OF LONDON fn HOOD RIVER An Island Bride How I Made a Match on Halloween By Mrs. SARAH B. ROBERTS Copyright by American Press Also elation, nil. On the coast of Maine is an Island (Bailey's island) where I have a sum mer cottage. My place is on the east fide of the island, uud on that side the Atlantic's waves are unbroken by any hind or shoals, so that they come tinging In upon the rocks. Surround ing the house, except on the sea side, are iir trees, whose odor huugs pleas antly upon the uir, especially pure in that region. The people who live ou Bailey's uud on Orr's Island, being next north of Bailey's, are mostly fish er folk, though some of them do a lit tle funning In vegetables and milk. " The several summers during my oc cupancy of my cottage a girl about seventeen years old Myra Crofjs was her name brought me milk. She drove uboyt among her customers lu u littlobuckboard wagon drawn by a kiiiiill horse, so used to his mistress' stops that he would stand quietly wherever he was placed. .Myra was a study for an artist, ller clothes were of the poorest, but her face was comely and her figure fit for a model for a statue. I did uiy own house work and used to receive the girl at the kitchen door, and since 1 liked her would always speak a pleasant word. One day I said to her: "Myra, It seems to me that it Is nearly time you were getting a hus band." "Oh, dear, no," she replied, showing by a toss of her head that the subject deeply Interested her. "There's no one ou the Island who wants me, and 1 never go off it. Ajid, as for the sum mer visitors, the young men ure all too much taken tip with the visiting girls to notice one who peddles milk." I had my eye- on a young fisher man, to whom I had taken as much fancy as I hud for Myra. During the moiillis of July nml August he gave his attention to the summer visitors, taking them out In his motorboat, but after they bad gone he would re turn to his fishing. 1 went out with him frequent ly and had every confi dence in Ills ability as a skipper. There lire numerous ledges In Casco bay, and Ned Ballard could Rail among them almost with his eyes shut. 1 was once with him In n fog some seven or eljiht miles out to the eastward, numerous Islands and reefs interven ing between us and home. Ballard brought me Into port safely, never ly ing to for a moment, and when we landed 1 said to him: "How In the world did you do it?" "Oh, to me," he replied, "it's like your walking about in your own house in the dark. 1 notice the How of the tide uy i no uireciioii or tno buoys. I oc casionally get n glimpse of a uck n bit of shore, a point, which confirms me In my opinion as to where I am. This was all unlntelligable to tue, for I bad during the whole period seen nothing but that driving fog so com mon ou that coast. It occurred to me that Ned Billiard and Myra Crofts would make a good match, Ned brawny and strong, Myra a tine specimen of a country girl. So interested was 1 in bringing the two together by a plan I conceived that when the season ended and the other summer residents and visitors departed I stayed on. For a few days nfler the hegira from country to city I felt lonely at the changed appearance the region took on. but as soon as I be came accustomed to the new regime I felt more pleasure in my surround uigs man ever, mere was above me the great blue dome of the heavens, about me the waters of the bay, und I breathed In as pure air as it is pos sible to find on the globe. To carry out my scheme for bringing my two favorites together 1 was obliged to slay till after Halloween, for on that day It was to bo put In practice. My sailing days were not so frequent now since Ned Billiard was engaged with his fishing. His work was In the night, and he slept by day. He fished principally for mackerel, spreading his nets at set of sun and taking them up nt Its rising, nnd when lucky would find them well filled with fish, which he sold at n handsome price. He told me that in one haul he once took In 1.3(H) pounds. Moonlight nights were his favorite time to fish. There was sutllclent light by which to work, but not enough for the fish down in the water to see the nets In which their tins Were caught. 1 have myself seen him out between my cottage and Ragged Island so railed from Its ragged shore and when his boat would lie in the moon's shimmer I could almost recog nize the silhouette of his figure. That year Halloween came at the full of the moon. I had thought of inviting Ned and Myra to my cottage unknown to each other and contriv ing to have them see each other's re flection in mirrors, but Ned was hav ing such luck with his fishing and the light of the moon was so valuable to him that I could not prevail upon him (o give me even one night. So I was obliged to invent another plan. Ned knew very little about Hal 'oween. He had heard of It. but dlj not know that on that evening girls were liable to get a vision of the man they would marry. There was no Kuperstitiou about him, und 1 knew It Nursery Stock Hood River Crown First Class THE KINO THAT CROWS A Few Dwarf Apple, Tear and Peach C. D. Thompson HOOD RIVER, OREGON GLACIER, THURSDAY. Q( would be Impossible f. r me t laijo him to ask Myra to his wife through a childlike faiiti iu nu appari tion. But we woaiiu are made of dif ferent stuff from Uii n. and I tuad rely ou Myra to believe iu anything that hud Hie upi'carauit? of being super natural, es billy if it pointed to a mate. A few dins before Hallow een, when she came- to deliver milk to me. 1 said to her: "Myra, are you goii.g to try to get a glimpse of your future husband ou Halloween V" "1 haveu't thought of doing so," she replied consciously. ' ou don't believe iu that, du you 7" "Why not? There an. lots of queer things in the world. Is it any more wonderful that a girl !e.uid see Hie uiau she will marry t l,:iu that mes sages may be scut through the air without eveu a wire to conduct them J" "I never thought of iiiat." "If 1 were you, coming as you are to a marriageable iie. I wuuld try to get a glimpse or ii.in. IlowV" "oh, at 11 o'clo. 1. mi Halloween night start somew ln re. The first un married man you meet vou will mar ry." "Where shall I go' ' "I have it. Co out a the water. 1 have a small motorbo.'if, whirti I will lend you. Vou can run it, can't you?" "Yes. ma'am." "Well, come here Just before 11 o'clock. The moon will be nearly full. 1 will start you out on the water. Vou will pass but one iku-sou a man lu a boat. He will be your lril,and." The innocent creatine's fare beamed with pleasure. Sho regarded what I told her as probable, as I had myself many years before considered it possi ble that with a bit of wedding cake under uiy pillow 1 would see my own future mate. "He will be working nt something," I continued, "but I can't just tell you what. Vou shall see for yourself." "Oh, dear!" she gasped, pulling her hand to her heart. "I you really mean It?" "Come nt half past lu." The next afternoon I saw Ned, who had just awakened from his day's slumber, nnd stopped to ask him how many mackerel he had laU.-n the night before. He told me, nnd I led the con versation about tliioiigh various themes till I finally broke away from what 1 was speaking of, saying: By the bye, Ned, do joii know that tomorrow night Is Halloween?" I didn't know it," he s.iid. You don't believe In such things, do you?" "I'm not a child." "Well, child or no child, on Hallow een the girl you are to marry will ap pear to you while you are working wllh your nets." He smiled with the look of one who took but little interest in the matter uf Halloween, but would not lie averse to seeing a sweetheart. Uemember," I added, moving on. "I tell you your future wife will sail past you tomorrow night." Mermaid on a seashell?" he called ufter me. 1 gave ii 1 in no reply. AH was work ing well for my plan. I ouly hoped that the weather would be propitious, for should it storm or the sea be bois terous all would be spoiled. As 1 expected, when Myra came to me on Halloween she was as be comingly dressed as her scanty ward robe would admit. I had procured a flower during the day, which I put In her hair, and replaced her tawdry wrap with a white sweater. The nights nre chill on Casco buy, even in sum tiler, und In October they ure cold, lint Myra had the warm blood of youth in her veins, nnd I knew n sweater would keep her perfectly comfortable. Fortunately there was no wind, and the sky was covered only by broken clouds that rendered the heavens more beaut if til, lighted, as they were, by the moon. I took my charge down to a stony beach, where, there being only a long. low ocean hwcII, 1 had moored It. She got In, nnd as I pressed her hand at starting i uotii ed that she wus thrilled with emotion. I pushed off the boat, telling her to steer for the north point of (lagged Island. I could myself see Ned's boat between me und the point, but Myru was so excited, that she was oblivious to It. As I saw her sail out into the moonlight I sent a prayer ufter her that she would lind a husband and happiness. Of her appearance to the fisherman I learned afterward from himself. I confess." he said, "that until I got to work setting my nets I thought of what you had told me. though 1 did not dream of Its coming to pass, but as soon as I was busy I forgot all about It. Then I heard the explosions of a motorboat. Boats' are rare out there except In summer, and 1 worn tiered who was coming. When the boat came near me I looked tip, and there, her face lighted by the moon, standing with one hand on the tiller, was Myra Crofts. I was taken tint aback. 'Why. Myra,' I exclaimed, 'what brings you out here In the night all alone?' "She answered never a word, just looking at me strangely out of her eyes, as though moved by some deep feeling. Her boat passed mine and. turning, moved In the moon's shimmer toward the narrow waterway between Orr's and Bailey's islands. 1 could see It en through and turn northward. doubtless to the anchorage cove a lit tle farther up." It was Myra's fiiih that she had seen the man she "as to marry that brought success to my scheme. Ned could not resist her Itinocent belief. The next spring the pair were married, and I was n much in' '-rested spectator fl t the ceremony. JJj wedding gift was a cottage.
