SO WEAK 5D NERVOUS How Miserable This Woman Was Until She Took Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound _ Toomsboro, Ga.—“I suffered terribly with backache and headache all the ti me, was so weak and ner vous I didn’t know whattodo, and could not do my work. My trouble was deficient and irregular peri ods. I read in the papers what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound had done for others and decided to give it a trial. I got good results from; its use so that I am now able to do my work. I recommend your Vegetable Compound to my friends who have troubles similar to mine and you may use these facts as a testimonial.”—Mrs. C.F. Phillips, Toomsboro, Ga. Weak, nervous women make unhappy homes, their condition irritates both husband and children. It has been said that nine-tenths of the nervous prostration, nervous desnondency, “the blues, ” irritability and backache arise from some displacement or derange ment of a woman’s system. Mrs. Phil lips’ letter clearly snows that no other remedy is so successful in overcoming this condition as Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.

That doesn't say much for the government that Gorky sup ports. it manage; to feed its soldiers. Germany, ap^rently, will yield to the demands of the allies and undertake to pay 532,000.000 000 in gold. Financiers seem to think she is able to pay, or that she will in some way escape the payment, for the value of German cur rency goes up on this news. Wdr is expensive. If the Germans must pay $32,000,000,000 for having enjoyed five years of war, how expensive would such a war be to the United States? We barely got into the war. and we spent about $50,000,000,0000 just simply get ting ready. A mother. In Monday’s news, was ill and worried. Her son, a nervous child, j 1 years old. worried because his mother was ill. He had not been told why his mother was so depressed. He kissed her goodbv. went to hi3 room and hanged himself. Two hours later the mother gave birth to her 11th child. \Vondering how she could take care of it had caused her to worry. This little story from the news will interest thos* .that advocate birth control. A judge has said that he would not allow anybody to become a citizen if lacking in average knowledge. One test question was: “What is the difference between a king and a president?” Of course, the candidate is not expected to give the real answer, which is, “a king Is a man in Europe who imagines that he rules the country and does not. The president Is the head of a people that thinks it rules itself but does not.” You know ttie story of Frankenstein. Mrs. Shelley wrote it., A man created his Frankenstein monster, powerful and cold. Then the monster chased him all over creation. That’s how the allies feel about Poland. They created that fine country; now it has a standing army of 600,000 men, and the allies are wondering what they are going to do about that Frankenstein. Freeing the Cables. From the St. Louis Post Dispatch. As an outgrowth of the controversy of the Wilson administration with the Western Union Telegraph Co., over the landing of a cable at Miami, Fla., to connect at Barbadoes with a British cable running to Brazilian ports, Con gress is considering legislation to define the powers of the government beyond question in the future. President Wilson forbade the landing of the Miami connection primarily be cause of dissatisfaction with the British cable monopoly in Brazilian ports, which runs until 1933. During a period of 60 years, with one exception, the ex ecutive has assumed to license and con trol such landings as a part of the Im plied powers of the president. The ex ception was in Cleveland’s administra tion, when Secretary Olney held firmly go home and wash the supper dishes. Legal procedure as It is observed in a world where plaintiff, defendant, urors, witnesses and attorneys have no affairs of importance to attend to is too slow for the movies. Here is the way a wit ness is examined In a real court: State to the jury, if you please, where you live. I live at 3812 Blank street. That is your home? Yes, sir. You live there' do you? Yes, sir. How long have you lived there? About 12 years. About 12 years? Yes, sir. Now you have staled I believe, that you are in the grocery business? Yes, sir. Where Is your place of business? My store it at J08 West Blank street. You run a grocery store there, do you? Yes, sir. Now you stated than on the afternoon of Feb ' ruary 18 you had gone to attend a funeral. Yes, sir. Your brother's fun eral, I believe you stated. My brother inlaw. Oh, your brotherinlaw. Yes, sir. Your brotherinlaw was dead was he? Yes, sir. Then you were not at your grocery store on the afternoon in question? No, sir. It is obvious that this xate of pro gress will not serve for the movies. Canned Books for Sale. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer. About everything from tinned beef and toothpicks to motor trucks, ocean transports and cities has been offered at public sale by the army or navy in the course of liquidating surplus stocks accumulated for war. Now the secre tary of the navy is preparing to dispose of 40,000 books. Who wants to buy 40.000 books? It is announced that the books will be disposed of at nominal cost. If the right kind of organization can be formed for distribution an excellent op portunity Is offered to lovers of books. However, it is suggested that the gov ernment itself should undertake to dis tribute these volumes. Government sales through the postoffice of certain kinds of foods was successful. The same method, it Is argued w’ould work equally well in the sale of the navy * 40.000 superfluous books. Earl of IHinto Carries M.ontreal Bride Into New Home in England She Admitted !t.

CO., NO. 22 -1921. When Capita! Goes Hungry. From the New York World. “Capital never goes cold and hungry," say's Vice President Eastty of the Brotherhood of Railway and Steamship Clerks, Freight-Handlers and Station Employes. “Capital is never out of a job unless It wants to be.’’ The state ment Is good rhetoric but not so much can be said of its economic soundness. Capital Is sometimes out of a job in voluntarily when a mill shuts down or a mine peters out. It may even go cojd and hungry when an industrial company passes its dividends or a street railroad goes into a receiver’s hands. Capital of course, is less likely than labor to feel the immediate pinch of a sudden reversal. It usually has mure fat to subsist on. But in a general sense both are subject to the same econ omical conditions. When labor is at work capital is at work, and when either suspends operations the other suffers and it becomes a question of endurance as between the strike fund of the one and the bank account of the other. The stockholder whose divi dends are cut off is in the seine boat with the employe whose pay envelope Is empty. How long either tan keep from going cold and hungry depends o nthe size of the rainy day fund. The bulk of capital is not in tho form of swollen private fortunes but in small Individual Investments the income from which Is as necessary to the support of the investor as his wages are to the workman. .Their interests are identical; It is essential to the support of both that the mills should be kept going and the trains running.

The custom is said to be a relic of the runaway marriages of olden times. The photo shows Eord Minto carrying the new Kady Mlnto into the house. Jethro—Original Efficiency Expert. Scriptural Suggestion Some Executives Have Overlooked, j Frank W. Taylor, jr., in Circulation. The Book of Exodus is the story of the Israelites on their journey through the wilderness under the guidance of Moses. Jethro was the fatherinlaw of that competent man. History sets forth how well and to what purpose Moses dis charged the obligation of leadership, but obscured in the narrative of that undertaking—one of the vital features of the .story, if you please—is the splendid philosophy of Jethro as expounded to his soninlaw and turned to practical account by him to serve as a per ennial guide-post for men who travel the road to progress. Jethro remained in Egypt when the children of Israel departed on their experiment in self-determination. In the course of time, however, he too traversed the wilderness and arrived in the camp of the wanderers. There is, in the course of human events, tha psychological moment, That was the moment Jethro arrived 1 Wearied with the weight of people’s woes, cast down with the perpetual problems of their days and nights, law-givers frequently go to pieces, and, as the gentle Jethro perceived his kinsman en gaged in the daily task of judging the multitude of their trans gressions, he discovered that an enterprise undertaken in faith and hope was about to become an object of charity. Then what happened? Read it, beginning with the 13th verse of the 18th chapter of Exodus: And it came to pass on the morrow that Moses^sat to judge the people; and the people stood by Moses from morning unto the evening. And when Moses’ fatherinlaw saw all that he did to the people, he said, "What is this thing that thous doest to the people? Why sit test thsu thy self alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even?" And Moses said unto his fatherinlaw, "Because the people come unto me to enquire of God. "When they have a matter they come unto me; and Judge between one and another, and I do make tUem know the statutes of God and His laws." And Moses’ fatherinlaw said unto him, “The thing that thou doest is not good. “Thou wilt surely wear away, both thous and this people that is with thee; for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone. "Hearken now unto my voice. 1 will give thee counsel and God shall be with thee. "Thou shalt provide, out of all the people, able men to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties and rulers of tens. "And let them judge the people at all seasons; and it shall be that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small^matter they shall judge; so shall it be easier for thyself and they shall bear the burden with thee. “If thou shalt do this thing, then thou shalt be able to endure and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.” So Moses hearkened to the voice of his fatherinlaw and did all that lie had said. And Moses chose able men out of all Isreal, and made them heads over rhe people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties and rulers of tens. And they judged (he people at all seasons; the HARD causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.” The modern Moses, engulfed in the problems of his own par ticular organization, leads his workers through the maze of the day's affairs. He carries the load to the breaking point. He be lieves tlmt the only way properly to get things done is to do most of them himself. He does not entrust the multitude of minor problems to competent assistants, thereby denying to them the right to de velop and progress. He knows that that day whose low descending sun sees not the major portion of the work by his own performance done is wasted. Someone had better begin playing Jethro to his Moses! Supreme Court Rulings. From tlie New York World. In dealing with the Volstead prohibi tion enforC' ment law the supreme court of the United Ctates read the word “concurrent” out of the constitution. In dealing with a recent question of free speech it upheld the authority of con gross to empower the postmaster gen eral to exclude permanently and arbi trarily from the second-class privileges any publication whore political and eco nomic doctrines he regarded as inimical to the present order of government. In dealing with the issue of money in poli tics and the systematic debauching of a senatorial primary the court finds that congress exceeded its constitutional power when it undertook to limit a candidate's expenditures. Honest Charles. “I’m glad I broke off my engagement with Charles.” said Merry Blue. “He’s no gentleman." “Ohi” said her friend. Cherry. “Why. 1 always thought him one. What has he done?” “Well, I sent him hack his presents,” answered Merry. “I sent them all hack, except the di&mopd ring and a few oth er things which 1 thought I was really entitled to, considering the hours of my time 1 gave him, and I asked him to return mine.” “Well,” asked Cherry, “did ha re fuse?” “He did not. He not only sent ma back a box of cigars, :unopened, and a necktie, which the brute had never worn, but he also sent five boxes of face powder, saying that he estimated that to be about the quantity he had taken away on his coat during the time that we were engaged.” Damages to the amount of $1,000 hang on the verdict of a Boston court as to whether or not a dog, killed by an au tomobile, “exercised due care” in Its use of the city’s streets. Ordinary telegraph instruments can be transformed instantly by a slight ad justment into wireless receiving and sending apparatus, according to a state ment today by Prof. IJppnian, of the French AVademy of Science. Such phrases as ”1 see the cat,” and “the dog runs,'’ in lessons In elementary grades should be replaced by sentences similar to "I look right and 1 ;ft when I cross the street,” according to the manager of the safety division of the Milwaukee association of commerce.

When It had got a little way Into the water it stopped and remained perfectly still, as a heron might when fishing at home. Its glance was never once tuken off the water. Suddenly it thrust its head Into an oncoming wave, and reappeared with a large lisli in Its mouth. Quickly tak ing its capture ashore It squatted down and made a hearty meal. After a while the lishing operation was re prated, and it was evident to the wit ness of the incident that tlie dog made a regular practice of It. French Youth Defective.
