How to Feel Well During Middle
Life Told by Three Women Who
Learned from Experience,
The Change of Life is a most critical period of a
woman’s existence, and neglect of health at this time invites
disease and pain. Women everywhere should remember
that there is no other remedy known to medicine that will
so successfully carry women through this trying period as
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, made from
native roots and herbs. Read these letters: —
Philadelphia, Pa.—“I started the Change of life
five years ago. I always had a headache and back
ache with bearing down pains and I would have
heat flashes very bad at times with dizcy spells and
nervous feelings. After taking Lydia K. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound I feel like a new person and
am in better health and no more troubled with
the aches and pains I had before I took your won
derful remedy. I recommend it to my friends for I
cannot praise it enough.”—Mrs. Margaret Grass
max, Till X. Ringgold St., Philadelphia. Pa.
--Beverly, Mass.—“I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, for nervousness and dyspepsia, when I was
going through the Change of Life. I found it very helpful and I
have always spoken of it to other women who suffer as I did and
nave nau mem try it ana tney also nave rcccivett
good results from it.”—Mrs. Geoege A. Duxbas,
17 ltoundy St., Beverly, Mass.
Erie, Pa.— “I was in poor health when the
Change of life started with me and I took Lydia
E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Compound, or I think I
should not have got over it as easy as I did. Even
now if I do not feel good I take the Compound
and it restores me in a short time. I will praise
your remedies to every woman for it may help
them as it has me.”—'Mrs. E. Kisslixo, Ohi East
filth St., Eric, Pa."
No other medicine has been so successful in relieving woman’s
Buffering as lias Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound.
Women may receive free and helpful advice by writing the Lydia
E. Piukham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass. Such letters are received
and answered by women only and beld in strict confidence.

THE GIRL WITH A
CLEAR SKIN WINS
If you, too, are embarrassed by a
pimply, blotchy, unsightly complexion,
just try Resinol Soap regularly for a
week and see if it does not make a
blessed difference in your skin. In
severe cases a little Resinol Ointment
should also be used. Resinol Soap
helps to make red, rough hands and
arms soft and white, and to keep the
hair healthy and free from dandruff.

his arrest on the train just before the

“ANURIC!”
NEWEST IN CHEMISTRY
This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, head of the Invalids’ Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. Experiments for sev
eral years proved that there is no
other eliminator of uric acid compa
rable. For those easily recognized
symptoms of inflammation—as back
ache, scalding urine and frequent uri
nation, as well as sediment in the
urine, or if uric acid in the blood has
caused rheumatism, “Anuric” acts
quickly. In rheumatism of the joints,
in gravel and gout, invariably the
pains and stiffness which so frequently
and persistently accompany the dis
ease rapidly disappear.

Booklet. "Distem
Associate Justice McReynolds ol
the United States Supreme court pref
aces nearly everything he has to say
with a story.
Occasionally McReynolds tells a
story with a point so subtle that only
those with a keenly pitched sense of
humor can ••get” him. One night at a
dinner he sprang something that oc
casioned not the slightest ripple of
laughter. He waited a reasonable
length of time and then observed:
“Well, at least don't cry about it.”
Nobody got that either. They
didn't understand what it was that
they weren't to cry about. So McRey
nolds added: “It’ll come in, may be by
freight.”
An Englishman was seated next to
McReynolds, and his curiosity was
aroused.
“What do you mean when you say
come by freight?” he inquired.
“Slowly, like a freight train," ex
plained .McReynolds; they 11 get the story if they wait long enough, don't
you see?”
A great light dawned in the Englishman’s eyes. "Ah,” he exclaimed,
''you mean steam packet. Story shipped by steam packet. 'Twould be
utterly absurd, wouldn’t it—ha, ha, ha.”
f EXPERIMENTS W)TH~WHiTE RATS
Philadelphians were perturbed re
• cently over the publication of the re
sults of a series of experiments with
white rats which are being made by
Helen Dean King at the Wistar In
stitute of Anatomy and liiology of
the Vniversitv of Pennsylvania.
Shorn of its sensationalism and
j half truths, the story of the experi
ments with white rats now going on
: at the institute is still interesting. By
means of careful selection and mating
j of brother and sister rats from the
; same litters, which is "the closest form
! of inbreeding possible," there is being
; developed a race bigger, heavier and
, better in every way than the wdinary
| rat.
"And,” says Doctor King, "theo
retically what can be done with rats
can be done with other animals, (live
me ten years longer and 1 may have
found out something.” By following
out her experiments it “might be pos
sible to revolutionize the whole system of stock raising” and thereby increase
the supply of meat and reduce the cost of living.
Doctor King is the only woman in America who holds a professorship
in research work, the only other woman in the world who has that honor
being Mme. Curie of Paris.
1 “SUB” FOR KING VICTOR
The duke of Genoa, who “subs" as
king at the Quirinal while his nephew,
Victor Emmanuel, is at the front,
is fast proving himself a formidable
rival of the latter for the affections of
the Italian people.
King Victor has ever been known
as the most democratic sovereign in
Europe. His "sub” has gone him one
better for democracy and won for him
self the sobriquet of the civilian king.
The nearest the duke of Genoa
comes to accepting any of the kinglx
perquisites that go with his job is at
four o’clock each day, when he goes
for his drive in the country. Four
cavalrymen surround his carriage and
a corps of bicycle guards follow. The
police won’t let him drive unless he
accepts this escort.
In the evening he makes up for it
by walking about the streets of Rome
in civilian clothes, accompanied only
by his chief aid de camp. It was while
amusing nimseir tnis way one evening that the duke saw a street car collide
with a fat woman. Of all the men who leaped to her assistance, the duke
got there first. She was quite uninjured, but the duke bundled her off to a
hospital before she knew who had helped her.
Half an hour later, when tfie duke returned to the Quirinal he sent his
aid to the hospital to make certain she really was not injured.
I NEW CHIEF OF YARDS AND DOCKS
Civil Engineer Frederic R. Harris
of the navy, recently appointed chief
of the bureau of yards and docks, navy
department, to succeed Civil Engineer
Homer R. Stanford, has made au en
viable record in connection with a
number of important projects on
which he was engaged since appoint
ment to the navy corps of civil engi
neers.
Among his achievements was the
solving of the problem that long had
attached to the dry doek at the New
York navy yard, the contract for
which was awarded in 1905. Five years
later, after several contractors had
failed on the job, Civil Engineer Har
ris took charge. He employed an en
tirely new method of construction, he
was instrumental in having the di
mensions of the dock increased, and
he successfully completed the work
in 1912.
In addition to many other achieve
ments, Civil Engineer Harris devised a new method of construction to be
used in the completion of the dry dock at Pearl harbor, Hawaii, the system
involving the building and sinking of a series of floating caissons or sections.
He has been concerned as an assistant in the construction of the state dry
dock at Boston and the project of the contemplated municipal dry dock at
New lork. He has been a valuable technical assistant to the department
of justice, and he has been a lecturer at* the University of the City of New
York, the New York college, and the Stevens Institute of Technology, as well
as being the author of numerous technical papers.
FACTS ABOUT DYNAMITE.
In spite of all that has been said and written to the contrary, many*peo
ple still have the idea that dynamite is exceedingly dangerous stuff to take
liberties with, and that it will explode at the least shock. This is a mistake.
Nothing less than a tremendous shock will make dynamite explode, and this
shock is obtained by exploding a mixture of nitric acid, mercury and alcohol
which in turn explodes the dynamite. '

A certain army officer took in to din
ner at a Washington party a young
lady who had just returned from Eng
land.
“The young soldiers,” she said, "are
having it all their own way with the
girls over there now. Too much their
own way, in fact. I know of a young
lieutenant in the Blues who is said to
be engaged to seven girls simultane
ously.”
“Oh. well,” said the officer, with a
deprecatory smile—“oh well, Cupid, of
course, is using a machine gun these
days.”—Washington Star.
MOTHER! LOOK AT
CHILD’S TONGUE
if cross, feverish, constipated,
give ‘‘California Syrup
of Figs.”
A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach
sour.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat
ed, or your child is listless, cross, fev
erish, breath had, restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a
teaspoonful of “California Syrup of
Figs,” then don’t worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and in a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. A thor
ough “inside cleansing” is ofttimes all
that is necessary. It should be the
first treatment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs,” which has
full directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu
tralize Irritating Acids—Splendid
for the System.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass It on to the bladder,
where It often remains to Irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding It.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina
tion. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.—Adv.
