Pains
Were
Terrific
Read how Mrs. Albert
Gregory, of R. F. D. No.

her Ills. During ... I
was awfully weak . . .
My pains were terrific. I
thought I would die. The
bearing-down pains were
actually so severe I could
not stand the pressure of
my hands on the lower
part of my stomach . . .
I simply felt as if life was
for but a short time. My
husband was worried...
One evening, while read
ing the Birthday Alma
nac, he came across a
case similar to mine, and
went straight for some
Cardui for me to try.

“I continued to get bet

and I went through . . ,

My baby was fat and
strong, and myself—thank
God—am once more hale

AMERICAN VITALITY
IN THE MOVIES
(Arkansas Democrat)
M. Faure, French philoso
pher and critic, sees in the
movie so thoroughly and es
sentially American art that he
j thinks it is folly for us to ex
pect to get improved ideas or
j standards from Europe. What
i ever the finest and highest
movie standards are to be,
America will make them, he
thinks.
Here, according to M. Faure
is the “virgin soil” in which
new arts must develop. Ameri
cans anre new people, without
any hampering limitations of
tradition in the field of art,
and as such are best equipped
to develop a feild that is im
possibilities far beyond any
other.
“The Americans are primi
tive and barbarous,” says M.
Faure, “which accounts for the
strength and vitality they in
fuse into the cinema.” Per
haps we haven't been think
ing of ourselves quite in such
terms as “primitive” and “bar
barous,” but there is much
truth in what M. Faure is driv
ing at. Only in America could
there be found the primitive
vitality of Jack London, the
barbarism of a Walt Whitman,
the Mechanical genius of Tho
mas A. Edison, the athletic
versatility of a Douglas Fair
banks, of the remarkable
showmanship of a D. W. Grif
fith.
Despite the unhappy perso
al incidents that have attract
ed unfavorable notice to the
movie colonies in recent weeks
revealing conditions that must
be, and will be remedied soon
er or later, the motion picture
industry is moving forward
into a new era of usefulness in
the world, activated by Amer
j ican genius.
In the field of news, of a
musement and of education
it has just begun to scratch
the surface of its value to the
world.

FARMERS ARE OPTIMISTIC
Getting Ready For a Big
Strawberry Crop
Bald Knob, Feb. 6.—T h e
strawberry growers of this dis
trict are taking advantage of
the good weather and fine
roads to haul home packages
needed for the 1922 berry crop
which promises to be good.
The growers at Worden, who
belong to the Bald Knob Fruit
Growers’ Association, have al
ready received three carloads
of crates from Humboldt,
Tenn., and are expecting two
more, there being 250 acres in
strawberries at Worden.
The growers at Russell, who
all belong to the Bald Knob
Fruit exchange, have unloaded
part of their supply of cases
received from Humboldt.
Everything points to an av
erage crop of strawberries
with a fair price for the fruit,
so our territory is beginning to
take on its usual active ap
pearance.
