Among the virtues of Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound is its abil
ity to correct sterility in many cases.
This fact is well established as evi
dence! by the above letter and hun
dreds of 'others we have published.
In many other homps, once child
less, there'are now children because of
the fact that Lydia K Pinkhain's
Vegetable Compouad makes women
normal, healthy and strong.

Annual Banquet.
Dear Miss Fairfax. Omaha Bee
Like many others, I shall come to
you for advice. I live in a small
town and am to be waiter at the
annual banquet. What color would
be appropriate for the occasion and
also what kind of goods? 1 weigh
140 pounds and am rive feet one and
one-half inches tall. How would
you advise me to have the dress
made?
I am 17. Am I too heavy and how
mticn snouid I weigh?
Just what is your opinion of
either public or private dancing?
Thanking you in advance, I re
main, "B1LL1E."
Georgette in any light becoming
shade or the new figured georgette
would be good for wear at your an
nual banquet. If you want some
thing less expensive you might
choose voile. The new fashion books
show particularly pretty girlish
frocks and it ought to be easy to se
Iect a style. With your build choose
something simple with long straight
lines. A girl of your height at 17
should weigh about 120 pounds. The
best people do not attend public
dances; the company Is too
promiscuous and the tone of the
gathering is usually not high. Such
nances are a great waste of valua
ble time. If you enjoy dancing go
to private dances where the guests
are Known to you.
G. M. You should count vourse'f
lucky in having a girl friend whose
wise home training and general good
sense are shown in her refusal to
grant liberties which you have no
right to expect unless an engage
ment exists.
Twinkle: I fear it is too lute In
life for your ears to be changed.
Your writing is better than your
spelling. Both could be much im
proved. A Reader Any woman who Is
willing to do housework can find
employment in Omaha. If you need
further advice come In and see me.
Anxious: You ask so many ques
tions that I do not think you in
tend me to answer all of them. Don't
worry about a young man who does
not care enough about you to write
to you. As for entering the movies.
the best thing to do is to go to Los
Angeles or some other moving pic
ture center and try to get an ap
pointment with one of the managers.
Do not go without your mother, or
some other reliable chajjefone. how-
Way Mrs. Durkee Received
Alfred's Suggestion.
Dr. Gibson's long, slender fingers
manipulated fittle Mrs. Durkee's
swollen foot and ankle as carefully
as possible, the while she struggled
gamely for composure, uttering no
outcry save pitiful little moans when
his touch set in motion some par
ticularly tortured nerve. But her
face , grew whiter and . whiter until
I was afraid that she would swoon
again, and I was glad, indeed, when
he finally laid her foot back against
the electric warming pad and
straightened himself to his full
height.
"There's nothing broken," he said
reassuringly, "but there's a nasty
sprain. Now, little lady, if you'll
just put that foot out here I'll fix
you up so it won't pain you."
He brought out a queer-looking,
queer-smelling unguent with which
he gently massaged the foot and
ankle, and then he! deftly bandaged
it in a manner to bring pangs of
envy to my Red Cross surgical rlass
soul.
"There," rfc said to me as he fin
ished, "just fix this pad so it wrll
keep at medium heat the rest of the
night, cover the ankle lightly with
something woolly, and give her this
in a few minutes. She'll forget her
troubles until morning, and then I'll
be on hand again."
This, was a pellet which I
knew was a powerful sedative, and I
saw that the physician had seen the
nervous strain under which his pa
tient was laboring, and meant to
give her a restful, if drugged sleep.
Doctor Is Firm.
"Wait a minute." Little Mrs. Dur
kee spoke decisively, and I saw the
color returning to her cheeks and
lips, knew that the relief of knowing
there were no broken bones, as well
as the assuagement of pain by the
bandaging of the ankle, had civen
her new streligtli. "I've got a bushel
of tomatoes that simply must bz
can ned."
Dr. Gibson smiled quizzically
down at her.
"Suppose we wait to discuss thut
until tomorrow comes,", he said.
"Not much!" she retorted. "I'm
going to know right this minute
how long I've got to be cooped up
here. If you don't tell me I won't
take one bit of your nasty old medi
cine, so there!" '
She looked, despite her age, very
much like a pretty, naughty, little
girl as she glanced up at the physi
cian poutingly. He stroked his
chin meditatively for a minute, then
a glint came into his(eyes which I
knew meant his most adamant
mood.
"You have no particular desire to
have a crooked, twisted foot for life.
have you?" he asked with a snap in
his voice.
She looked frightened and an
swered with a meek little:
"No-o but "
"But nothing!" he retorted. "Just
let me ten you something straight
lou have as nasty a sprain as I've
ever seen. It's going to take alt my
skin -ana implicit obedience from
you to save you from permanent
lameness, jmiiij you, there s no
danger of it if you obey directions.
Now, will vou be good?"
The Silent Glance.
My little neighbor searched his
face with eyes in which there was
childish cunning. But what she saw
in them evidently cowed her. for she
murmured in an abashed little voice:
"I'll do what you say."
"Then you must not leave this
room for two weeks at least, and in
every movement that you make you
must guard against jarring your
foot. It must be protected at all
times. Therefore you must have
some one cither hi the room or with
in call constantly, for vou will not
be able to help yourself."
"Oh-h, doctor!" the moan was as
genuine as if the pain in her foot
had caused it. "All my canning. But
don't sav I've got to have a trained
nurse. T can't stand that!"
"That isn't necessary," said Dr.
Gibson indulgently, "provided you
can get some friend or relative with
average intelligence and a deft
touch to stay with you. I can show
such a person in a few minutes
everything there is to be done be
tween visits."
"There isn't a soul," Mrs. Durkee
said dolefully, looking at me, how
ever, with distinct hope in her eyes.
Nonesense, I said. You know
I can come over for a day or two
anyway until we see what can be
done. At any rate you won't be left
alone."
"Perhaps that Mrs. Ware who
does sewing for" me sometime "
she began when Alfred interrupted,
just a hint of sterness in his tone.
"I think you're forgetting, mother,
that there is some one who will
count it a privilege to come and
take care of you. I do not think
Leila would readily forgive us if in
this emergency we did not call on
her."
I was glad that Alfred, in embr
rassment at bringing his fiancee's
name into the conversation, did not
look at his mother as he spoke. For
such a. shadow of resentment and
disapproval crossed her face that I
trembled for fear she would give
it voice.
