Many of the delegates were elated over the adoption Wednesday of the Lambertson resolution against hard surface roads legislation in the 1921 session. Guests of legislature Today. The visiting farmers were guests of the legislators by special invitation this morning. They went .in a body at 11 o'clock with the intention of visit ing both houses during the day. Legislation to establish co-operative banks in Kansas is much desired by the Farmers' Union, according to Maurice McAuliffee, president, f The co-operative bank idea has grown as a result of the success of the other farm ers' co-operative institutions, McAu liffe said. The farmers are also greatly interested in the efforts of the legislature to provide terminal ele vator facilities both in the matter of leases and in buildirrg new elevators, according to Bevington ,of the resolu tions committee. To Elect, Officers Today. Flection cf officers and the reports of committees are of much interest in the meeting this afternoon.

"We have made great strides for ward despite the fact that price fluc tuations and grain gambling have brought suffering to many of our members," Thurston said. ."Our stores, elevators, flouring mills, insurance companies and all the varied activities of the association have flourished." No decision was reached over the bossible movin? of ntst hMriniinptai. from Salina to Topeka. There is strong objection on the part of many farm ers of the western part of the state to location, of headquarters In eastern Kansas. Governor Allen Spokr.

Nearly everybody in southwest Mis souri either knows or has heeird of tha, Rev. Parker Moon, who for a full half century has devoted his life and talents to Sunday school and organiza tion work for the Society of Friends or Quakers. "Uncle Parker," as he is more fa miliarly known, came from fine old rugged Quaker stock, and there is not si better known or more highly re spected citizen in that part of the state. In referring to his remarkable restora tion to health by Tanlac, he said: "About five years ago I suffered a freneral breakdown. My principal trouble was nervous indigestion. My appetite was very poor and my food seldom agreed with me, and I had to live on a very restricted diet." I suf fered a ereat deal from headaches ana dizzy spells; I had severe pains across the small of my back and was badly constipated most of the time. In fact. 1,'was so weak and rundown I was not to attend tf my duties. jj"This condition made me very nerv ous and I could not sleep at night. Fre ljntly I would lie awake most all night hnd was in that condition more or less tor five years. My physician said he could not do anything for me and sug KPMeil a chamtc of climate. I then moved to Texas and went back and forth three times but did not get the relief I had hoped for. Finally, I got so bad off I was not able to get around with any degree of comfort. I was also told I had heart trouble. -"I had read about Tanlac and, as it had been very highly recommended to me, I decided to try it. I got a bot tle and had taken only a few doses until I could notice a marked improve ment in my condition. I noticed espe- cially that I was not troubled any more with sour stomach after eating, which was a great relief. "I kept on taking Tanlae until I fully regained my health. My appe tite is splendid; I enjoy my meals and I do not find it necessary now to take any laxative medicines of any kind. I can sleep much better and am not nearly so nervous. "I take great pleasure in recom mending Tanlac to anyone who needs a srood system builder, or who suffers with stomach trouble. I have recom mended Tanlac to a great many of my friends and am pleased to reach others by giving this statement for publica tion."

They sat all day under the most inspiring ex hibition of verbal fireworks displayed In the legislature in many months. Then they promptly voted thru the Lambertson resolution which declares against state aid for hard surface roads for two years. More perfectly good speeches were- wasted on tne legislature in the Lam bertson debate than on any measure since Frank P. Walsh and Jake Shep- hard pointed out the things they didn't like in the industrial Court bill. Many of the farmer members of th house are new. But that faet shouldn't cause misgivings among persons who recklessly judge a new legislative bo3y. The farmer members are stampede proof, and they nave seemingly heard speeches before. Tried To Blast Farmers. Old- members and new members joined in the fight to blast the farm ers from their position. Harley, Ged des and-Endres were joined by Hasty and Hope and other -youngsters in the first term elass. There were a dozen Jpfch grade speeches. Most of them fere against the resolution. "Buster" Brown of Atchison was the only lawyer who supported Lambert son. He declared war on the conver sational farmers and said he was look ing for a place with the folks who ditjn t grow corn by use ot the hu man voice. Talked Themselves i Hoarse. Near the end of the day's struggle Endres of Leavenworth moved the previous question, Lambertson had the closing. And the way he knocked the dust off the lawyer opposition made the Farmers' Union members in the gallary feel their trip to Topeka had not been in vain. Lambertson wanted no limit debate and charged that the opposition had talked them selves hoarse and sought to close the doors against further discussion. During the fighting it looked for a time as tho Lambertson might be driven from his position. When the previous question was put he lost' by three--votes. But seemingly the farm ers as well as the lawyers were tired. On roll -call on final adoption of the resolution, tho, Lambertson checked in with a clean cut house majority aniks lead of ten votes over the oppo sition.- 5 For; 55 Against.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL) THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 20, 1921 j MA'IfTE Ivil -fiX llX ILd A WELL Provide Protection for Your Family Today The making of a will years ago, was regarded as a distasteful, unpleasant task to be postponed until the last possible moment. Today thoughtful men look upon the making of a will as the future protection of their loved ones and a safeguard for their estate. Under the direction of the National Thrift Week Com mittee of the Young Men's Christian Association today has been set aside as National "Make-a-Will Day." All over the country the attention of people is being directed to the importance of making a will. No one should dispute the necessity for making a will, and almost everyone realizes its value and plans at some time to do so. If you leave a will your property should He dis tributed according to your own wishes. (Without a will your property will be disposed of according to he laws of the state in a manner which might be far from, what you would desire. In the event of an unforeseen acci dent and death a will is a safeguard of your property and protection for your loved ones. Now, while the matter is before your mind, is the time to have your will drawn. Tomorrow may Be too late See your lawyer today and observe "Make-a-Will Day by having your will drawn. By naming a Trust Company in your will to admin ister your estate you can be assured that your executor will not die or become incapacitated and will faithfully carry our your last wishes. The duties of the Trust Company will be to collect the assets of your estate, protect and preserve them, pay, claims and taxes and finally distribute your property according to the terms of your will. The Trust Company is experienced in the work of administration and is responsible, dependable, trust worthy and economical in the handling of your affairs. It is under the direct supervision of the State. The fees received by the Trust Company are the same as received by individuals for similar services. The cost to your estate is no greater and often less than where no will is left. When you see your lawyer today ask to have your will drawn, appointing a Trust Company as your Executor.

Whether the public utilities law shall be repealed or shall continue to encumber the statute books, the court of industrial relations should be re lieved of the duty of its administration as recommended by Governor Allen in his message to the legislature. THe administration of the law places upon the court a burden -which it was not intended that it should bear and sub jects its members to criticisms and an noyances which may easily hamper it In the discharge of those duties which primarily it was established to per form. The court was established for the purpose of preserving industrial ptoace and justice In the state and nothing should be permitted to inter fere with the attainment of this end. Whatever inharmony has developed among the judges has been due to its attempts at carrying out the provi sions of the public utilities law. "r The senate committee! on Cuban re lations is considering a trip to Cuba in order to investigate at first hand the economic and political stability of the Island republic. Senator Knox of Pennsylvania suggested the enterprise. This is the first public intimation that the senator is a drinking man. It appears that Kansas cannot en ter upon the business of supplying it self with material for Improving its highways without an amendment to the constitution. A Joint resolution calling for the submission of such amendment to a vote of the people has been introduced in the legislature. This means a delay of two years in the taking of a step of great importance to the taxpayers. Kansas already has a brick, plant in successful operation at Lansing and its product has gone into the construction of many state buildings. Theusual argument that the state should not engage in busi ness which will compete with private enterprise may be expected, but no valid objection can lie against the commonwealth's making brick and cement for its own use. It has been estimated that if the workers of this country should save 10 per cent of their salaries and wages, and this were invested at 6 per cent interest, they would in a single generation accumulate more wealth than has beenaccumulated in all of the centuries and all of the genera tions. In the financial report of Armour Co. for the year .1920, attention is called to the unsatisfactory prices paid producers, but the livestock men are told that in this matter they have nothing on the company. The report says: "Despite prices that were too low to suit producers, and despite the best efforts on the part of the packers to make a profit, our business in this country was conducted at a loss." There Is nothing" to prevent the pack ers from following the practice of al most every other industry that has lost money and applying to the gov ernment for help. In the early sixties there was widely sung a song the re frain of which was: "Uncle Sam Is rich enough to give us all a farm." That sentiment seems still to survive among several classes of citizens. It is estimated that there are 3,000, 000 members Of organized labor in this country and more than ten times as many workers who are unorgan ized. The contest which is being car ried on oyer the question of the "open shop" is resulting in some quarters In the establishment of another kind of closed shop than that demanded by the unions. It is the kind that is "closed" to members of a labor organ ization. This merely shows that two can play at the "closed shop" game but it does, not make forpeace and harmony, so much needed inhe In dustrial world at this time. There must .be some way in which employers and employes can compose their dif ferences and it should be found be fore the situation grows worse. There are industries in which there rarely "develops a clash between employers and union employes. Why cannot others adopt themethods employed in these? MEDDLING IN BUSINESS. There are before congress a num ber of bills designed to promote gov ernment interference with industry, either thru restrictions "or by giving it a boost. Along with these plans for legislation goes the almost invariable accompaniment of federal investiga tion. Fifteen months ago Attorney Gen eral Palmer started on his crusade to reduce the high cost of living thru a series of department of Justice inves tigations. The administration in formed the public that this course would be certain to reduce prices be cause the profiteers would'" grow alarmed at the. approaching investi gation and would cease to take exor bitant profits. So sure was the pres ident that the investigations would lower prices that he asked the railway employes to hold back their demands for higher wages for three months. expressing tne opinion mat, before the three months had elapsed, the prices of commodities would have fallen to a point where the pay of the railway employes would be adequate. Those investigations started by the attorney general were immediately followed by an increase In prices in almost every industry that was inves tigated. It is easy now to see why such a result was inevitable. Federal interference caused a withdrawal of capital and slackened -production. Whenever the federal investigators be gan prying into the private affairs of a business its credit was temporarily ruined. Investigators brought charges on the most flimsy pretexts in order to justify their activities; the public be came suspicious; and the lessened production which followed did the rest. It is not of record that a single reat profiteer was convicted 1 as the result of these investigations, altho a mass of indictments were obtained, every one of which operated very much like throwing a monkey wrench into the wheels of industry. The in vestigations cost millions and the shrinkage in production and conse quent higher prices cost the consum ing public tens of millions. The legislature Is being asked to establish another state agricultural college. But it might be well to wait until the taxpayers feel that they can ive the existing one the money that is deemed necessary for its proper main tenance and.development. THE NONPARTISAN INVASION. Under the caption, "Townleyism as a Disease," the Minneapolis (Minn.) Tribune reviews the experiences of that state with the North Dakota con tagion and offers some advice to Kan sas. The Tribune's artiele follows: Nebraska, Oklahoma and Kansas have met the threatened invasion by Townley in the same spirit as that in which a healthy community would greet a pestilence. Thrown back from their assault on Minnesota, the sedi tion germ breeders, who had been -well on their way to a cure In the increas ingly anti-socialism atmosphere of North Dakota where the Townley con tagion first ravaged, sought more promising fields of havoc by migrating South. But their coming was not without warning. A strict quarantine against the Townley plague was established in all the states, both sides of the Mis souri and Mississippi rivers, from South Dakota to Texas. Townley and his organizers could not break into Nebraska or Oklahoma, but they sneaked by the Quarantine barriers in Kansas and established their head quarters at Salina, where they have been met by Commander O. A. Kitter- man of the American Legion and by the American Defense League of Kan sas with the same kind of enthusiasm as that with which men of healthy mind3 and bodies greet those affected with smallpox. As in all cases where a struggle is on against seditious teachings, so in the defense now jon in Kansas against Townley socialism, there are the quasi-pacifists and the "let-'em-alone" advisers, who pretend to assume that publicity of Townley -works out in his favor as advertising helpful to his at tempted perversion of the rarmers vote. It was in following such suggestions of contemptuous disregard and silence that the sound-government citizens and press of Minnesota made at first their grievous mistake in warding off the. recent Townley onslaught on this state. Townloy's phrasemakers took advantage of the inaction oi tneir op ponents and the disease of socialism spread to an alarming degree. Just be cause the teachings of loyalty were too much withheld. It was not until the intensive cam paign of the past year when the real nature and purposes of Townleyism were made known thruout this state, that the safeguards of sound govern ment were so strengthened that de mocracy was made safe for Minnesota. An infectious or contagious disease can only be conquered by active coun teracting restoratives; and in such cases the truth of the old saying is again verified, that an ounce of pre vention is worth more than a pound of cure. The blood of the patient must be kept pure in order that it may sup ply to the system sufficient of those health-giving elements necessary for a successful fight against disease. The same rule applies to the cure and prevention of diseased views of government The best preventive Is a constant publicity of healthful views. The only cure is educational activity by which the poisonous effect of per verted doctrines may be overcome by establishing healthful and sane public opinion. Opposition to a Puritan Sunday has been voiced by at least one church the Adventist.- It has a Sabbath all its own and objects to being called upon to keep two. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Infc r-i ormaiion Bureau FREDERIC 3. HA SK tiff. Director, Washington, 0. C OCT OP A JOB. New Tork City. Jan. 17. If it were not for the' new calendars on every body's desk, you might easily suppose we were living back in the year 1915 The streets are filled with almost as many unemployed as there were then; the i ark benches, which enjoyed such a quiet, indolent existence during the war, are once more doing duty as beds the hospital wards are again treating starvation cases, and the bread-line a long, hungry bread-line has re turned on the Bowery. In 1915, before the United States entered the war, according to Anson C. Baker, secretary of the Bowery Mission, 1.000 men stood in the bread line every night. During; the war. the number dropped to about 85, all of whom could be accommodated inside the mission, so that there was no longer any necessity for a bread line. Meantime, the mission's facilities for feeding large numbers dwindled. Hence, when Just before Christmas hundreds of hungry men started crowding its doors every night, Ht was absolutely unprepared to take care of them. Kolls and coffee were gradual ly served to every one, but so grad ually that it wa usually midnight be fore the last man received his portion. Since Christmas, many more hun dreds of employes have been released thruout the city, and the situation has become much worse. St. Marks-in-the-Bouwerie, at Second Avenue and Tenth street, has come nobly to the rescue, however, opening its chapel as a public lodging; house and turning the church kitchen into a soup station for the unemployed. In addition, a sub stantial dinner is served by the church every night at 8 o'clock. Between them, the Bowery Mission and St. Marks Chapel are feeding approxi mately 1.500 men daily. "We used to becriticised severely for helping to Dauuerize the men." said Mr. Baker of the mission, in dis cussing it3 activities. "It was said that they would not work if they could get free meals.. This was disproved aunng tne war, when the attendance at cur evening lunches fell off. Those wno remained to take advantage" of the free food were aged. decreDit. or acutely unfortunate in some respect. We do not offer charity but hospital ity. Men do not stand in the bread line except as a last resource." Not Many Charity Cases. The majority of these are not yet in need of charity, or hospitality, as the mission prefers to call it. There are still the family savings to fall back upon, and the children's earnings. Children can often get jobs today when tneir tamers and mothers can t espe cially among the foreign-born popula tion, where only the children have re ceived an American common school training. Thus, school authorities re port that thousands of children are now abruptly leaving school to seek work until their fathers are once more employed at steady jobs. Meantime, the fathers plod wearily around the streets, pursuing .forlorn hopes raised in the help-wanted col umns or haunting the numerous pros perous commercial employment agen cies that occupy set much space along the Bowery and Sixth avenue. Both discouragingly futile tasks. The pay agencies have recently raised their commissions, but even so business is slow. Much as 'they would like to, under present conditions, they cannot themselves create the Jobs. The most that the mission and St. Mark's chapel have been able to place in a day is fifteen, and they are rather proud of this record. The New Tork emnlovment bureau has a branch on West Forty-sixth street, where Jobs are supplied free of charge when there are any to supply, but the number of men placed by this organization on the day the reporter visited it was just three. Tet all day long, lines of men stood In patient ex asperation before the various sec tions of the office, marked "Hotel and Restaurant," "Skilled Labor." and VClerks," hoping for a word of en couragement. The demand for ex perienced clerks still exists in a feeble way, one of the secretaries explaind, but the other two departments for the past few weeks have had practically.- nothing. "What is your line?" inquired a so cial service worker of a tall, gaunt and haggard-faced man, as he left the waiting group and started for the door. "Drill press operator," he replied dully. He continued to answer the social worker's Question in the same dull. J tired voice. Yes, he was married, he said. Five children. One of them had diphtheria. His wife was out of a job, too. Tes, he had tried to get something else, but the agency had nothing. They Said they would let him know if a request came for a drill press operator. In the -meantime he was scrubbing floors in a high school at night, but it did not pay enough to keep the family. Unreliable Agencies. The social worker wrote, something oi. a card and gave it to the man, whose face then assumed a more hopeful expression, but as a loud dis pute arose in the Hotel and Restau rant section of the office,, at this crit ical moment, the reporter was com pelled to pass up the finale of this in cident Nearby, a few minutes later, one job-hunter was explaining to another tnar he has tried every pay agency on Sixth avenue and that at last he had discovered one that offered a job as truck-driver. But the man in charge wanted $8 for the address of the job. "So there was nothin' doin' on that," the first job-hunter explained emphatically.- "You can't trust them guys. They fix it so that you go to work one day, and get fired the next and then Where's your eight bucks 7" In these normal times, the various disinterested employment agencies. which played such an important part during the war, are conspicuously missing. Most keenly missed of all are the offices of the United States Department of Labor that did so much to straighten out labor turnovers and complications two years ago. Gone too, are the agencies of the Knights of Columbus, the Y. M. C. A., and the Other valiant rooters for overseas service, who were going to do so much for the boys when they came home. Many of these men wbo, are walking the streets in search of work are scarcely out of khaki: some of them still wear their khaki shirts and spiral puttees. But people do not notice that now. The lack of free employment agen cies is a serious handicap for the man with only a few dollars left in his pocket. The pay agencies are taking Advantage, of this golden opportunity to charge high commissiens, and even then, according to the testimony of the Job-hunters, few of them are re liable. For the men to go direct to the factories and hotels and offices and department stores seeking; work is merely a waste of time and shoe leather. Recent canvasses have shown that not a single Job is to be had in any of these quarters. Only Accountants Wanted. In fact, the only class of workers for which there is still an active de mand is accountants. Requests for auditors and assistant accountants are still so great that there are not nearly enough to go around. This Is because of the large number of New York firms which have lost goods and money in tbe-'crime wave and have to have their books straightened out. It seems that when a crook robs a stOT he not only does much damage to the stock but to the books as well. Missing stock plays havoc with a firm's bookkeeping. So as long as the crooks keep up their work, at. least accountants will have jobs. Tfye Woman He Married BY JANE PHELPS NAN HAS A WINDFALL. CHAPTER 4. j "Well, Nan, I have taken a flyer! A mighty small, one, but if It turns out right It will help a little." "A flyer?" I asked, not compre hending, "Yes. I bought a little cotton." "Oh, goody!" "Don't goody until I sell it, I may lose." "Oh, no," you won't!" "I hope not. And Nan, I took the house, money to use as margin. I couldn't bring; myself to borrow, and so the tradesmen can't be paid cash this month. We've been pretty good customers so they won't kick at giv ing us a little credit." Then, "I did it for you. Nan. I want you to be happier than you have seemed lately, and as It 'appears to be the lack of money that worries you, I've made up my mind to take a chance." "What you should have done long ago!" I said snappily. 'i knew the tradesmen would not give me further credit without kicking, as Dick ex pressed it; that they would make things very unpleasant for me unless" I paid them something substantial on account. Then I had promised Clara to return the money she. loaned mei Anxiously I asked: "When will you sell? And may I have your first profit?" "If it goes my way I shall not wait for a big profit. And, if I give it to you how am I ever going to try again? I thought that if I made anything I would try and use only profits and so not have to ask for credit because of using my salary." "But if you only make a little?" "Great oaks from little acorns grow,' he quoted. But he showed no real enthusiasm, and it made me afraid that we might perhaps lose instead of winning. Would to God we had! The next few days were not happy ones. Dick studied the financial sheet the entire evening, and I worried over my debt to Clara, and. the housa: bills? The second of the month came. Cotton held steady that was all. The grocer had called me on the telephone and almost demanded his pay. I cried a little as I worked about the house not because of the debts, or because I felt at all guilty; my sense of right and wrong was blunted but I wept because I was without money to satisfy those I owed. Dick might have saved me all this annoyance. With the tradesmen, at least. It had ceased to be an embar rassment, and in only three short years. When I was first" married I did not believe iri-running in debt, and was happy with what Dick could do for me. It was simply aping others, allowing my foolish love of clothes and show to obstruct, yes, to obliter ate, my good judgment. Then there came a miracle. At least it seemed so to me. "I am a lucky person!" I said over and over as I read mother's letter. A distant cousin of hers had died, and had left her $2,000, and me $500. The check was enclosed.' I laughed and cried! .Then came the thought that had I not owed so much we might have used it to make more money. It would take the great er part of it now to pay the grocer and hutched and Clara. I never gave the debt I owed Mildred Stowell a thought. She had said I was not to worry. She didn't need it, and I was to take ail the time I wanted to" pay her. I rushed down to Clara with the news.. She was delighted. Yet she acted rather cross also. "You haven't told me a thing yet!" she complained. "I will now that we have a little to use. Dick will have to tell me because it is my money," I evaded, Clara went to the bank with me and I deposited it, and for the first time in my life owned a check book. "I'll pay you tomorrow, Clara. I don't want Dick to know I borrowed of you. He thinks I still owe the dressmaker." I didn't say he thought I owed $75.

Alfaretta sat swinging and singing at tho top of her young voice: "I wish I had er ginger cake, I wish I had er dime; I wish I had er new fi' cents to give dat gal er mine." "Why so sinfully laviBh, Fretty?" Benton called to her from the blanket he lounged on twenty yards away. "Why not offer something possible to mere men and mortals? A red apple, for instances. I might be equal to that." "Sure enough, Smarty?" Fretty asked, making a face at him. "I have my doubts. But lemme tell you this you've got legs if you don't like my singin', why you get up and dust away. I have to sing when I feel like It." "So I hear painfully," Benton flung back mournfully. Fretty made a worse face. "Re member I was weaned on 'The Blue Juniata,' she said. "My mammy named me for it she loved the song so well." "I see. Alfaretta Juny-etta. Shades of Spanish Wah-neeta!" Ben ton apostrophized, dropping his book. Fretty stopped the swing, saying, severely: "Wah-neeta is another song. Juny-etta goes like this: 'Fleet-ing ye-ars have borne away the voice of Alfaretta -Still sweeps the river on, Blue Jun-y-etta! "I'd like to know how you'd make Wah-neeta rhyme?" "I wouldn't make It," Benton an swered humbly, but with a twinkle. Fretty began swinging afresh. She was light, lithe, a seventeen-year-old tom boy, filled with the "beauty of the devil" found only at such age. Benton, her father's chum, found- her vastly diverting. He was at Tip Top for the hot weather, and glad of anything that made his exile more bearable. "You thought I was dad's little girl, wearing a finger in her mouth and ex pecting to be kissed when her face and her frock were clean," Fretty burst out from the height of a wide swoop. "But I've forgiven, you for disap pointing me so being a Christian minded person," Benton countered. Thereat Fretty giggled. "Want me to tell you something?" she asked". "I will whether or not" I bet Babe Acklen a pig against a puppy, before I ever saw you, that you'd fall dead in love with me in about three days." "Creditable to 'your penetration. How. came you so wise?" Benton asked. Fretty giggled again, saying: "Oh, I'm used to settin' old men off their heads. The preachers, and even .the presiding elder, always wanted me to sit on their laps with good chairs doing nothing at all. And Doc Bark ley tries to kiss me every, birthday and him smoking worse than any chimney "Who won the bet?" Benton inter rupted. Fretty stopped the swing dead. "We have to ask you that, she said, flushing the least bit. "Babe says the puppy's mine wants to bring it right over to me but I say not tho I ain't qfiite ready to let him have the pig" casting down eyelids that showed dark-fringed lashes against It-, r-,.-l rtT V lin. .l.1,e V "Let me see. Pretty much of a draw, I think," Benton said, musingly. "Jt hate to say it, but you lose, if any 6ody does, by being too old. If we had met earlier, say when you were ten or thereabout-I never could have resisted you." "Yes. you could. I was uglier then than home-made sin all snaggly toothed and freckled as a turkey egg and right down stringing in arms and 1 well, everywhere, because I ran and played so hard. There's a lot in feed ing yourself, let me tell you. I found that out when I swapped green apples and candy for meat and bread and things." "I have been mercifully spared, that is plain. But tell me how did Babe live, thru the-snaggly-tooth,and green apple epoch?" Benton asked -with an air of keen detachment. Fretty shook her fist at him, crying: "Babe!" Lawsy me! Why! he's case-hardened was that sort his own self I do reckon we were thetoughest looking, raggedest pair of colts that 1 ever romped in any pasture. We both had whooping cough and measles in the same week after that everybody said we were bound to die or grow up so spindlin' it would be a pity we hadn't. So they lot us run wild dad and Squire Acklen 'V "Wise gentlemen." Benton Inter rupted. "Now if you had been mine I should have sentenced you to die of education." "Our education acquired us such as they are." Fretty explained. "And I think they're good enough. We know how to talk if we can't parse any thing and how to behave 'real nice if there's need of it. Isn't that better than having a headful of capitals and things? Counting I love it some how goes with money. Babe is an awful dub at 'rithmetic but my! you ought to see him shoot the spots out of the nine of hearts." "You can do It?" Benton asserted rather than asked. Fretty nodded. "I always tie him at any .sort of mark," she said. "But not when we're hunting birds; or squirrels or rabbits. I always shut my eyes as I pull the trigger." 'I see! You have mercy on live targets of 'sorts." Benton- said re flectively: "But how about jnen?" Fretty laughed a laugh of sparkling malice saying: Oh I let them take whafs coming to them if they haven't got gumption enough to step out of range." "Hml Anything personal in that?" Benton asked. Instantly Fretty was all wide-eyed innocent. "How could there be?" she asked. "You're same as vaccinated Dad's best friend." "But that doesn't make me im mune." Benton answered, his voice suddenly strained. He got up Jerkily, stretched, ran back of Fretty and sent the swing sailing the full length of its ropes. It was a foolish experi ment he wanted to startle her from her supreme poise. Also hazardous ropes, like affections, wear thru under too great tension. To his horror he heard a low crackling sound saw one big strand of the huge hempen -cable give,' part, and suddenly unwind. The motion was still outward when it checked for the down-sweep there would be further breaking. Even if the whole cable did not part a deep list sidewlse would mean a fall, a deadly fall, for this girl child whom he knew suddenly held his heart in her two hands. Dully he spied the blanket spied also a tall youth run ning on winged feet. Babe Acklen tore across the lawn, trying to shout, but barely whispering Fretty's name. His marksman's eye had told him her danger the swing was already out of true which could mean but one thing. Benton had already seized the blan ket but he would never have known were to hold it effectually. Bab? moved instinctively to the right spot, glancing now and then at the figure in air. Fretty sensed her danger with both dimpled hands she clung to the sound side of the cable. But the pow er of weight and mass tore loose her grip she catapulted forward, down ward to certain death, it seemed. But earth was not to slay her. Babe and Benton held the blanket taut, but it was Babe who eased it at the exact instant to save Fretty from a danger ous rebound. Her face was white but she laughed as she set foot on earth. Benton felt like a murderer he could not meet her eyes. But Babe, after one look, walked precipitately away, saying over his shoulder: "Two's company, three's a crowd." "You can never forgive me," Ben ton began. "Never," Fretty echoed. "So I'll have to even things by ag gravating you all the rest of your life! What d'ye say to it?" "Yes and thank you!" Benton returned meekly. (Copyright,- 1921, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) 1 Dorothy Dix Talks BY DOROTHY DEK WseWs Highest rat Wo Appertaining to and Concerning Cheerfulness 1. A correspondent asks me if I will tell her how to acquire the habit of cheerfulness, and the art of being merry. Well, of course, the real recipe for becoming a human sunbeam is like that for acquiring a beautiful complex ion. You have to be born with it AH others are mere camouflage and makeshifts, but, just as by care and attention, and a copious use of cold cream you can improve a bad com plexion, so, by the exercise of thought, and philosophy, and a liberal appli cation of the salve of diplomacy, you can brighten up 'a pessimistic disposi tion. To one who would fain take an optimistic outlook on the world, I would recommend a good course of liver medicine as a starter along the cheery road. Nothing puts such hope in your soul and strength in your char acter, as a judicious' dose of calomel. Whenever you have that dark brown taste in your mouth, and life becomes ashes, cinders and dust in your teeth, beat it for the nearest drug store. The subsequent results will leave you loving your fellowman, and convinced that God is in His Heaven, and all is right with the world. So many things that we think are spiritual are merely physical. Most grouchiness is the result of dyspepsia. Morbidness is the outward and visible sign of flap-Jacks and sausage within, and nearly all irritability is over wrought nerves. Good health would cure most of the wrongs of society, for when we are feeling good we act good. So if you want to be cheerful, look first to your liver, for riot, without rea son do the Turks speak of one they love as "the joys of their liver." No body can smile the smile-that-won't- come-off unless that organ is doing business properly at the old standard. And if you get up in the, morning with a chip on your shoulder, and a yearning to fight anybody in sight, and if everything that everybody says to you irritates you beyond endur ance, don't go on a debauch of tears, and melancholy in which you have a perfectly grand time viewing yourself as a martyr who is misunderstood and not appreciated. Lock your door, and go to bed and stay there until you are rested, and fit for family consumption once more. Having got your body'In 'the' proper state, the next aid to cheerfulness is to adopt a sane attitude towards life. Try to see things in their right propor tions, and not make mountains out of molehills. Suppose life isn't all you want. Suppose you have disappoint ments and disillusions. Suppose you even have great griefs. Does any good come of whining over your misfor tunes, and hugging your sorrows to your breast? We are sad and gloomy because we are always demanding of fate: "Why should I be sick? Why should I be poor? Why should I lose those I love?" We should be more cheerful if we could see ourselves as the poor, insignificant atoms that we are, and ask of destiny: "Why, of all created human beings,, should I be the favored of the gods and spared the common lot?"

Assurance from "Billy" Sunday to the effect that he intends to make no fight on tobacco is unimportant. The use of tobacco is so widespread and so well established that any attempt on the part of the Rev. Mr. Sunday to popularize the habit would be sur plusage. But his reappearance on the printed page has a certain significance: it indicates that the eclipse is over,- It was, as we recall it, early in 1917 that the thin edge of the cloud first obscured the Rev. "Billy." And the phenomenon has been approximately total ever since. It may interest you to know that we have finished the reading of Sinclair Lewis's much discussed book, "Main Street." If is a photographic study of the more dismal phases of small-town life. The sordidness, the intolerance, the uttter triviality an4 the dreariness of the small town are reproduced with remarkable fidelity. The truth about the small tdwn, which is that it has no sense of art or beauty and no intel lectual aim, is set forth in clever and remorseless fashion. But, unfortunately, Mr. Lewis's repu tation for clearheadedness suffers be cause of his conviction that a prescrip tion will remedy the conditions he de scribes. It may be that thinking peo ple who are bound by the small town will be interested in the prescription. It is composed of three ingredients: socialism, co-operative buying and the Nonpartisan league. Secretary Daniels assures the coun try that the fight between Lieutenants Farrell and Hinton will be investi gated. We are reassured. We had feared for the moment that the fact of the fieht would not officially be established. But after it is established what then? If our mood' seems imperative, it may be excused on the ground that the matter is urgent. The people are much wrought up. They want to know what -if anything, can be done. Apparently, the owners of the New York Americans have signed away their life's blood. In Chicago on Wednesday they entered into an agreement which forbids them en gaging in public abuse of Ban John son for an indefinite term of years. Since baseball in New York was predicated on abuse of Mr. Johnson, the agreement practically kills the game both for the owners of the Americans and the New York sports writers. We lack the curiosity of the editor ial writer who wants to know what Mayor Hylan and Messrs. Hearst and Brisbane talked about when they met behind closed doors. Having read some of 'Mayor Hylan's interviews and various of Mr. Hearst's newspapers, what they said behind closed doors would be of no interest to us. Of course, the damnable attempt of the newspapers to discredit Mayor Hy lan stirs us, but not to the point at which we become Interested in his private conversation. The probabilities are that when you see three fellows with their heads to gether one of them thinks he knows where he can get a drink. A good deal of the trouble in this country is due to the fact that those who are able to express themselves graphically and well are nearly al ways committed to the use of some nostrum. As we Interpret it, the moral in the matter of Mr. Harding's somewhat embarrassing situation is, do it your self and do- it first. The old question as to whether woman can keep a secret is warmed to renewed life by the appearance of six women on a New York grand jury. The answer is yes and no. A woman can keep a secret if it is about a man and is something another woman wants to know Buck Kilby says the chief point of difference between the east: and the middle west, in so far as his obser vations on a recent trip west extend ed, is that in the middle west they still regard the saxaphone as an in tegral and important part of a dance orchestra.

George Matthew Adams Daily Talk' LOTTIE SPROUSE. In a lonely little farm house near the village of Laclede, in Effingham county, Illinois, a little girl sits at the window and waves her hand to the trainmen as their trains pass swiftly by. For six years she has done this. She never misses a single train. And at night time so little has she been able to sleep she waves with a lighted match. Each trainman thought that he was carrying on a silent little romance all his own until a few months ago when some one of them investigated and learned that the stranger was Lottie Sprouse, now 18 years of age, who for these six years has been confined to her cot with infantile paralysis. But tho hlpless, she kept right on sig naling her cheer Ho every train that whisked by. On Christmas day, the big hearted trainmen took Lottie a wheel chair, a robe, a large blanket and other gifts. They all called together, having char tered two of the Illinois Central's fast passenger trains and stopped right In front -of the little home, for the pur pose. Furthermore, the fine trainmen are to care for the thoughtful and pa tient invalid while she is receiving the proper medical attention for her fatherts circumstances up to now did not permit it.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 20r 1921 5 THIEVES BUST AT FUNSTON Deserted Camp Now Mecca for Crlinr InaJa Guards Given Shotguns. Junction City. Kan., Jan. 20. Sev eral robberies and attempts at robbery at the Camp Funston -warehouses have recently been reported and renewed activities are being made by the units of the Second cavalry from Fort Riley, wnicu tiow is policing the camp, to prevent depredations. The latest or der in this connection is that the guards or the camp be armed with shot tins with instructions to use them if the occasion requires. The hiK camp is now entirely de serted of military forces with the ex ception of the guards. Much valuable army material is 'said to occupy the larga warehouses. A theft recently of f5,00u worth of motor car tires was followed a few days later by recovery of the loot. Some of it was recovered from a cache in this county and some was located in Riley county. About 150 tires stolen, some time ago have not yet been recovered, camp officials report. Two attempts of thieves who escaped in automobiles when surprised oy guards, have been reported. MEMORY BILL IS INVALID Governor Allen Bid Not Sin Soldiers' Act Within Legal Tims. Governor Allen did not sign an ap propriation bill and the soldiers' me morial bill within the leaal time and the laws are invalid, according to a decision ef the state supreme court. The memorial bill decision was given in a case brought from Salina, while the appropriation bill was also made a test by state officials. Salina had voted $200,000 for a sol diers' memorial building. The bonds were not issued and suit followed. Now the court holds that the bill granting right to construct such buildings had not been signed by the governor within the prescribed time. In the case of the appropriation bill the governor signed the wrong meas ure. A substitute bill was agreed upon by a conference committee during the pedal session of 1920. The regular bill, tho, had been engrossed and sent to the governor for his signature. NO II IKK IN FOOD PRICKS HEItE. Restaurant Men Have Not Increased Prices, Says Survey. For the benefit of members of the legislature who may feel that the res taurant men of Topeka have boosted prices on them, setting a schedule for their particular ben.it during their sojourn in the capital city, a survey of the prices charged in the restau rants of the city with comparisons with the prices of two months ago has been made by members of the Cham ber of Commerce. The results of the survey show that there has been no hike whatever in the stuff the waitress deals off her more or less shapely arm in the past two months. The prices the legislators are paying pre the same as those paid by To pekans two months ago, tne survey shows. Extending their functions into the field of the dietician, the Chamber of Commerce members, who are de scribed by their president, George Mc iJermott, as "two business men whose reputations are unimpeachable, and who are not connected in any way with the hotel or restaurant business," drew up two sample breakfast menus, harmonized to the tastes and "powar to pay" of different sorts of legisla tors. They have also painstakingly woiked out' some dinner schedules, which are within the reach of nearly every legislator. And they point with pride to the luncheon which is served daily at the Chamber of Commerce for the benefit of the members, for 50 cents, and call attention to the fact that the legislators all have honorary cards. rThe Klks club also serves an excellent luncheon at the same price, and legislators are welcome there. SEXATOKS VISIT BOYS' SCHOOL. Committee Members Well Pleased Willi Conditions at Institution. The reaction of the members of the senate ways and means committee to the impressions .received when they visited the .State Industrial School for Boys near Topeka, Tuesday, indicates that the committee will go as far as they can toward the assistance of the wra k which is being done there. The committee members were deeply touched by the conditions which they found at the school, and the efforts which are being made to form an educational institution, rather than one for the punishment there. They promised nothing, but it is a safe bet that the industrial school will get some assistance tin the way of new buildings and money for educational purposes, r.-.ien the committee is figuring out the money which they can spend this year. The members of the committee ex pressed themselves as highly pleased with W. P. MacLean, superintendent of the home, and the manner in which he has been conducting the institution, and the ideals he has for its future.

Enactment of a state income tax laW is strongly recommended by the state tax commission in its report to the legislature. Such a measure will be presented in the present session, ac cording to Samuel T. Howe, chairman of the commission. An income tax. the commission believes, would distribute the burden of taxation more evenly and would obtain revenues for the state from "intangibles" now escaping taxation. The present plan results in unjust taxation in two principal ways: "First It fails to distribute -the tax burden in a Just manner among the property owners whose property gets assessed, because the machinery of as sessment is inadequate. "Second The system fails to get the property of all taxpayers on the as sessment roll. One clear result of the present system is that the tax burden is slowly but surely being shifted to tangible, property; that is. property which has visibility, that can be found by the assessing officers without the aid of the owners." s 177 HOMES BUILT IN 1920 Total Cost of lcw Buildings Here Last Year Was $1,657,794.

TO RAISE TEACHERS' SALARIES. 25 YEARS AGO IN TOPEKA From tile Columns of THE TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL County Superintendents Frge Mini mum or $1,000 Per Tear." Under the present Kansas law a county superintendent of public in struction may receive as little as $720 a year. Comparing this stipend with the emoluments of the average day labor in the state resulted in the ex ecutive committee of the Kansas State Teachers' association drafting a bill for presentation to the present session of the legislature, which will fix the minimum salary for county superin tendents at $1,000 a year. The bill also provides for a general increase of one-Jfrird of the salaries of the county education officers, And at that, the highest salary provided for is $2,000 a year. Clerk hire'at the rate of $700 a year is provided for counties having more than 100 and less than 200 teachers, and those with more than 200 teach ers would be entitled to $1,000 for clerk hire, under the new bill.

Mexico City, Jan. 20. Americans eeeklns petroleum concessions in Mex ico, must have the financial strength Jto develop the properties and carry out all provisions of the gTant, accord Jng to President Obregon. In his first conference with newspa per men, the new president declared "himself in favor of equal rights for foreigners in agrarian and other rights, in order to secure the full develop "ment of Mexico. Strict adherence to a rule calling for financial strength would prevent speculation and favor itism, he declared. s; Near-Sighted in Politics. Obregon contented himself with dis easing domestic affairs, declaring he was "near-sighted In politics and espe cially international politics." He an swered most questions frankly and just as frankly said he was unprepared to answers others. The president said he had no fear f an influx of American labor Into Alexico; wages are less than half of what they are in the states, he de clared. No Need for Parley. "Anyway, It Is a principle of organ ized labor." he said, "that workers hall share good and bad tiijies. If frad times exist in the United States and good times here, Mexicans should ie glad to share their prosperity." Obregon declared there was no need for a conference between the United States and Mexico. "I believe." he said, "that when the tXnited States and other nations see we are carrying out what they justly demand, they will consider the embod iment of those demands into a treaty Unnecessary." t FIiAYS WINNER TAKE AlJj.

By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. ,Tou will find, too. that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and yeur hair will look and feel a hundred times better.

URGE BETTER SCHOOLS Prominent Educators Are Guests at Rotary Meeting Today. Better teachers, better country schools, ar.d better future" cities, was the keynote struck five times, by as many speakers at the regular weekly meeting of the Rotary club today noon at the Chamber of Commerce. James Gowers, superintendent of school at Winfield, emphasized espe cially the need of better qualified teachers. "The principal thing we are asking for," said Gowers, "is improved stan dards of certification for teachers. The country school teachers have not the qualifications in a number of cases, to teach the farmer boys and girls." Ben Martin, superintendent of schools at Newton, was of the opinion that too many teachers were steering wrong in their instruction methods. "Too many teachers are teaching books, instead of children," he said. "They need more of the practical in struction. The country schools are being flooded with theory." Edward Holton, of Manhattan, is deeply interested in the future of the country schools, and made a plea to the Rotarians for their assistance in helping the rural schools out of the rut into which tney nave raiien. "Give the farmer boys and girls the same opportunities as the city chil dren, and they will become corres pondingly good citizens," he advised. "Help lift them up by the better teacn er method." Dr. C. E. Chadsey, dean of the school of education at Illinois univer sity, urged the members of the club to take an active interest: in me lur thering of the plans of the school workers. He advocated the creating of a state organization to uplift the farm schools, and also recommended a lay board of educators to supervise the organization. The "On to Wichita" movement, started recently by the Rotarians to create Interest in the district Rotar- ian convention, to be held at Wichita April 7 and 8, was put fierore tne assembly by tne "On to vvicnia com mittee, composed of W. W. Bowman, chairman, F. A. Derby, T. W. William son. Arthur Remington, and "William Bullis- Each one made a short talk urging the Topeka Rotarians to attend the convention. When a vote was taken to ascertain the number of pro bable representatives from Topeka, nearly three-fourths of those present indicated their willingness to attend. Galo Sweeps Northern Kansas.

Nearly f-00 members of the Farm ers' Union went before the Kansas legislature today with a demand for a co-operative banking law and changes in rural school laws. In speeches before the legislature, offi cers of the union stated their frank opposition to state aid for highway building and praised the house for its support of the Lambertson resolution. There was no reference to tenantry enactments, Flay Nonpartisan League. The Nonpartisan League was flayed by Maurice McAuliffe, president of the union when he sopke in the house and senate. John Tromble, vice presi dent, did not mention the league, but dealt with problems of the Kansas farmers. "Xou have been told these fellows are disloyalists," said McAuliffe, in speaking of the league, '.'and I believe they are. They have come nere to arouse discontent. I thank God we don't belong to that organization. This organization is 100 per cent American in every bone and fibre of its being. The responsibility rests on you to rid this state of that class of var mint." "AH we ask is an equal opportunity," Tromble told the legislature, "and I want to inform you that we are going to have it, too. Farmers are being forced to put their products on the market for less than the cost of pro duction. The farmer is the only busi ness man in the country who cannot transact his own business and has nothing to say about the price he re ceives for the things he sells. "Economic conditions are more seri ous than most people realize. Unless there is a change we will be import ing foodstuffs because present condi tions are driving men off, the farms It isn't our responsibility a,lone. It Is the responsibility of every man who it a good American citizen. We are not asking for anything we are not en titled to. If we ask for more than our just dues, turn us down." Appeal for Banking Law. Then Tromble appealed for a co operative banking law and changes in rural school laws. McAuliffe asked opposition to Governor Allen's pro gram to change personnel of the state charter board. Members of the Farmers' Union are receiving courtesies of the lobbies and galleries of the two houses during their stay in Topeka. Their visit to the legislature today was in keeping with a custom which has been fol lowed during legislative sessions for a number of years.

Kansas City, Kan., wants to own the street railway operating there, and Senator Ridgway Introduced a bill in the senate this morning which would give that city the power to take over thru the right of eminent domain, the entire railway equipment and holding, and to pay for it according to a valua tion set by a board of commissioners. Another bill which indicates that Kansas City,, Kan., means to expand, was introduced by Ridgway, which provides that a city of the first class and a city of the second class may be consolidated, if their boundaries touch. A bill which is designed to go to ward the remedying of one of the farmers' greatest troubles at the pres ent time market difficulty was pre sented this morning by Senator Bad ger, of Eureka. The bill provides for the creation of a state marketing bureau, under a director appointed by the state board of agriculture. The director is to ap point agents who will be located in the centers of industry, commerce and population of the United States, and there charged with the job of selling the things that Kansas produces. The producers who market their goods thru the state bureau will pay a com mission which will pay the actual ex penses of a handling and sellinc their produce. The bureau is to be main tained by appropriation from the state funds $10,000 being set aside for the bureau's maintenance during the first year of its activity, and $20,000-for the second year. The bureau will also have the job of regulating the grading of all pro duce handled thru its agencies, and will make a stu iy of market condi tions, giving the information free of charge to any who apply ror it. Another important function of the contemplated bureau is to encourage and to assist the formation of county or community co-operative marketing associations. i One of the important administration bills which is to help dividehe senate at this session is a bill which came in this morning from Senator Frizell, of Pawnee county. r.

WOULD HOLD IT UP Lodge and Knox Against Borah Disarmament Resolution. v Oppose Any Action For This Session of Congress. Washington, Jan. 20. Opposition by Senators Lodge and Knox to action this session on the Borah disarma ment resolution reported favorably to day by 'the senate foreign relations committee, may prevent the adoption of the measure, it developed. Lodge and Knox, altho they do not flatly oppose the resolution and are in favor of disarmament, have given some of their Republican colleagues the impression that the proposed inter national conference is part of the Harding foreign relations program and action should therefore be deferred until Harding takes office. Harding is known to have, told call ers at Marion that he would be' pleased to have the disarmament question "agitated" this session, but was not particularly eager for action immediately. The assumption among Republican senators here today was that the position of Knox and Lodge was inspired by their knowledge of how Harding felt. in its amended form, the resolution requests the president to take up with the governments of Great Britain and Japan immediately the question of naval disarmament, with a view to promptly include a treaty for limita tion for the navies of the three powers ARREST TWO YOUNG MEN Topeka ns Held In Connection With Early Morning Burglary Here.

There is money in the oil game, but it you have a good business in some other vocation, one can make just as much. That is Ihe philosophy of O. H. Francis, who with his wife is present ing a musical program at the Or pheum theater this week. Mr. Francis home town la Casper, Wyo., which for the past two years has been the cen ter of the northern oil boom. "I thought I'd make my fortune in the oil business and be able to pursue my musical studies at ease," said Mr. Francis. "But one year of it made it plainly evident to me that as an oil man I was a good musician." Mr. Francis quit a contract with the Boston Symphony Orchestra to enter the oil game- Previously he had made several trips in the west with that or ganization and has played in the To peka auditorium, .where his cello solos were always well received. As a part of his program at the Orpheum this week he and his wife have been play ing "The Kiss Waltz," one of his un published, but copyrighted composi tions. He refuses to publish the piece until his act has had exclusive rights to it for at least a year. WOODMEN TO MEET J AX CAR V 26. Three Local Camps Plan Big Mem bership Campaign.

Sinc the days of the Williams Walker organization, the negro theatrical produc tions have been on the down grade, but the ''Smarter Set company of colored 'artists Shows that this particular type of theatri cal attraction is not to die out altogether, lu fact "Hamboula." shown here last night, would lead one to believe that the colored show is due for a revival. Not that "Bamboula" is as good as the Williams Walker stuff in the heyday of that famous pair, but it is far above any other that has oeen an own nere mis or jast seawii. The attraction is well dressed, well staged nnd well trained. There are no spectacular stunts, there are no exception ally clever dancers and none of the singers had vrlccs that stood out above the others, but it was the spirit of the thing that car ried the house with It. No white organiza tion has yet been able to get exactly this unanimity of spirit and good will. They may call them "frolics. hut it is the col ored show a good one like this, which puts it over.

Feels like he did at sixteen. "One year ago in September I was taken down; couldn't eat, sleep or work. The doctors didn't know ex actly what was the matter. Some said I had catarrhal gastritis, and others, cancer. Anyway, I was given up to die. "A friend persuaded me to try Milks Emulsion. In 2 or 3 weeks, the sore ness went -out of my lungs, the pains vanished from between my shoulders, and I began to eat and sleep, and work.

"I had anemia from the time I was sixteen years old and was very irregular. If I did any house cleaning or washing I would faint and have 'to be put to bed, my husband thinking every min ute was my last. After reading your text-book for women I took Lydia EL Pinkham'a Vegeta ble Compound and used the Sanative '"..juriTfnunr-- Wash, and have never felt better than I have the last two years. I can work, eat, sleep, and feel as strong as can be. Doctors told me I could never have children I was too weak but after taking Vegetable Compound itstrengtb ened me so I gave birth to an eight pound boy I was well all the time, did all my work up to the last day, and had a natural birth. Everybody who knew me was surprised, and when they ask me what made me strong I tell them with great pleasure, 'I took Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound and never felt better in my life Use this testi monial at anv time." Mrs. Elizabeth Smart. 142 V Sixth St Lowell, Mass. This experience of Mrs. Smart is surely a strong recommendation for Lydia EL Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It ia only one of great many similar cases. nssssjsaaaaMSSMSSSSPai 1 LOST AXD rODND.
