OLEVEK JUDGE OWL
lyffR. COON h«d lost a bright tin
spoon, and It was not the first
line that he had loat one. This tiuie,
iMwrever, he waa not abbe to get It
back from Mr. Crow because he could
XMt catch him using It.
"But I know Jimmy Crow has my
Spoon. There Is no one else who would
care enough about bright things to
«arry It off," said Mr. Coon.
"But you will have to prove it," said
Mr. I'ox. who was quite wise about
anch things. "Just because tbere are
a few feathers In front of my house,
and the ftmner has lost a chicken,
does not prove I took it, .vou know."
"No," faltered Mr. Coon with a smile,
"I suppose it doesn't; but how jitu I to
prove Jimmy Is the thief. Mr. Kox?
"Von are so clever—enn't you think of
Some way to help me get m\ tin spoon
back?"
"Suppose 1 arrest .Jimmy on sus-
picion." su Id Mr. Fox; ".mil, !o he I'siir
It Was No Clue to Deny It
about It. we will have one of .Jimmy's
tribe for the Juilg *. He cannot object
to that, and everybody knows that
Judge Owl Is very clever and wise,"
"Very well. You arrest him," snld
Mr. Coon. "1 know be has my bright
tin spoon, and I hope he has kept It
bright. I would not care a rap about
It If it Is not shlnv "
Mr. Fox had to wult until he caught
Mr. Crow on the urminil, and one day.
when he did. be erept up behind him
and caught, him by one leu "I arrest
you, Mr. Crow, for meating Mr. (.toon's
bright tin spoon," in' said.
'Trove it!" cawed Jimmy Crow.
"How do you know 1 stole H?"
"We wilt let Judge Owl decide that,"
answered Mr. Fox, "He is very wise,
you know."
"He will hare to prove I have the
spoon, and he can't do that," said Mr.
Crow. "He has got to catch me with
It, and he can search me If he likes;
he won't find it."
Judge Owl looked very solemn and
wise as he sat on a low lltub of a
tree looking down on Mr. Crow and
Mr. Fox and Mr. Coon as they sat ori
the ground, "We will tiear what the
prisoner lias to say," lie said.
There were many other wood folk
there, alt listening to what I he Judge
said, hut now every eye was turned on
Jimmy Crow as lie began to speak.
"I have not got his tin spoon" said
Jimmy, looking very boldly at Judge
Owl, "Von can search under every
feather >>n me, Judge, and you won't
tind it."
.limmy rulllod tils feathers as he
spoke, and all the animal* began In
wonder if, after all. Mr. Coon was not
mistaken, for, of course, (he spoon
would have fallen if .limnij had It bid
den
"Well, perhaps you did not take It."
said Judge Owl. "I know one thing;
I he one who did steal Mr. Coon's
bright rln spoon hasn't any tall
feathers; he has lost every last
feather."
"They were'%11 there this morning,"
said Mr. Crow, looking around at his
mil before he thought what he was
doing.
"You are the r filef. Just an 1
thought," said Judge Owl. "<!o home
and get that spoon, or you will lose
all your feathers."
It was no use to deny It now. Jimmy
Crow knew ihat when he turned
around and looked at his tail and made
that remark he had acknowledged his
guilt, so off he flew, with a llock of
Uluejavs around hitn to make sure he
did not run away.
"Wasn't Judge Owl clever to catch
Jimmy the way he did?" asked Mr.
Coon as he sat In the moonlight talk-
ing It over with Mr. I-Hr. and Mr. Fox.
who admired a ele.ci trick, allowed
that Mr Owl was a \ cry cloVer old
bird.

Nervous Break-Down
MRS. ANNIE LANGE, of
R. F. D. 1, Burlington, Tex.,
writes as follows regarding
herexperience withCardui: "Some
time ago 1 had a nervous break-
down of some kind. .. 1 was very
weak and so nervous. I had faint-
ing spells and suffered a great deal,
but more from the weak, trembly,
no-account feeling than anything
else. I knew I needed a tonic, and
needed it badly. I began the use
of Cardui to see if I couldn't get
some strength, as I knew of other
cases that had been helped by its
use. I soon saw a great improve-
ment, so I kept it up. I used seven
bottles of Cardui, and can say the
money was well spent, for I grew
well and strong. Am now able to
do all my housework and a great
deal of work besides."
If you are weak, run-down,
nervous and suffer from the ail-
ments peculiar tc women, it is
very likely that Cardui will help
you, in the way it helped Mrs.
Langeand has helped thousands
of others, during the past 40 yean.
Ask for, and insist on, Cardui.
