AILING WOMEN
NEED THIS FAMOUS
DOCTOR'S PRESCRIPTION
Thousands of women who are now
blessed with robust health cannot un-
derstand why thousands of other wom-
en continue to worry and suffer from
ailments peculiar to women when they
<an obtain for a trifling sum Dr.
Pierce'* Favorite Prescription which
will surely and quickly banish all
pain, distress and misery and restore
the womanly functions to health.
This prescription of Dr. Pierce's ex-
tracted from roots and herbs is a tem-
perance remedy.
To get rid of Irregularities, or ca-
tarrhal condition, to avoid pain at cer-
tain times, to overcome irritability
and weakness, waste no time, but get
Dr Pierce's Favorite Prescription in
liquid or tablet form this very day.
"ANURIC!"
NEWEST IN CHEMISTRY
This Is a recent discovery of Doctor
Tierce, 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
urtne, or if uric acid la the blood has
caused rheumatism, "Anurlc" 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.
Send Dr. Pierce 10c for large trial
package. Full treatment 60c. All
druggists.
WOMAN'S WORK IN THE WORLD I MADE OWN ROAD TO SUCCESS
Activities of the "Weaker Sex" Promi-
nent Along Practically All Lines
of Endeavor.
More women are employed la the
manufacture of clothing than any oth-
er Industry In Pennsylvania.
The duchess of Norfolk has a col-
lection of parasols of all countries,
said to be worth $2,500.
Two thousand women will servo as
judges and clerks of election In Chi-
< ago this year, for which they will re-
ceive $7 per day. t
Thousands of women have been
thrown out of work in Massachusetts
since the operation of the minimum
wage law went Into effect.
The first savings bank was insti-
tuted by a woman. Prlscilla Wakefield,
who inaugurated a bank scheme for
the eucouragement of thrift among
children of Tottenham toward the end
of the eighteenth century.
A remarkable transaction of Nich-
olas Stratham's "Abridgement of Law,"
an old English book, which has baf-
fled translators for years, has just
been completed by Mrs. Margaret C.
Klingensmlth. a member of the Penn-
sylvania bar. It took Mrs. Klingen
smith fifteen years to complete the
translation, which will be published
In the near future.
Putting Papa Wise.
"Papa," said the hopeful youth, "can
you tell me what is natural philoso-
phy?"
"Of course I c*n," said papa, proud
and relieved to find that there was at
least something he could tell his off-
spring. "Natural philosophy is the
science of cause and reason. Now,
for instance, you see the steam com-
ing out of the Bpout of the kettle, but
you don't know why or for what rea-
son It does so, and—"
"Ob, but I do, papa," chirped the
hope of the household. "The reason
the steam comes out of the kettle is
so that mamma may open your letters
without your knowing it."
Woman Proved She Was Capable of
Making Her Way, Despite All
Forms of Competition.
Forced by the Illness of her hus-
band five years ago to take up the
burden of supporting the family, Mrs.
Jennie Watkins In that time has be-
come one of the foremost woman In-
surance agents In the country and has
written more than one million dollars'
worth of insurance policies.
Mrs. Watkins lives at No. 280 Fort
Washington avenue, where she main-
tains her office. She Is the only wom-
an member of the $200,000 club, an
organization of expert insurance
agents whose annual writings of poli-
cies reach that amount every year.
She declares, and her associates,
who are men, agree with her, that she
gained her success through competi-
tion on equal grounds with her male
opponents, and she has vanquished
them In contests entirely by superior
arguments, and not by falling back on
the handicap which her sex might give
her - New York Times.
ALL "GO HOME" SOME Tltot
To Every Inmate of Prison the Period
of Freedom Arrives, Either in
Life or Death.
Some day—If we live, and there
doesn't seem to be much chance of
dying around here—we are going out
and going home, says a writer In the
New Era, Federal penitentiary, Leav-
enworth.
Even the man who happens to die
here is going home, for that matter.
It may seem slow, but the time
romes eventually for the last "get-up"
in prison for every man here. Then
its hike!
It's over to the tailor shop for new
clothes from head to foot—and then
out and away. No bird will be freer
than you and I, but we'll not fly high
any more. One will start in one direc-
tion and one in another. What's the
difference? Any road leads to free-
dom and the main chance.
We shall have the right to work and
to carry our wages in our pockets
again or put the money in the bank.
THE EVIDENCE I
III THE CASE
On the Watch.
There is a species of sentry groups
employed near the trenches. They are
called "listening patrols' and their du-
ties are to be always on the alert and
give timely warning of any attempted
attack. One night an officer on his
rounds inspecting a listening patrol
stationed on an empty farm asked:
"Who are you?"
The reply was: "Listenin' patrol,
sir."
"What are your duties?"
"We listen for the hen cacklin', and
then we pinches the egg, sir."
In Building
A Highway
you would build for efficient service now and for gen-
erations to come.
The "Road to Wellville" is built that way. And the
password to that road is "right living," in which food
and drink play such a big part.
More and more people are waking up to the need
of banishing from the dietary heavy, indigestible foods,
and food deficient in the vitalizing mineral salts. Food
scientists now hold that the lack of these elements is
one of the chief causes of a long list of ills, including
anemia, constipation, nervous prostration, kidney
trouble, and so on.
Long ago a food—now famous—was devised to
make up for this lack, and it does it admirably.
That food is
Grape-Nuts
Made of whole wheat and barley, it contains all the
nutrition of the grain, including those vital elements—
phosphate of potash, etc.—which are indispensable for
perfect balance of body, brain and nerves, and for
warding off disease.
This food comes ready to eat, is economical, and
delicious. Digests quickly—generally in about one
hour—and is full of health-making goodness.
A ration of Grape-Nuts along with other food has
started thousands on the "Road to Wellville."

Until a few years ago Mr. Henry

In a new country, where he would

to refer to Mr. Lohmann, at this par

"The crop this year was good; the
oats went 80 to 90 bushels per acre,
and wheat went 40 to 50 bushels and
the price Is fair."
Sam Morrow, of Millet, Alta., in
writing to Mr. J. M. MacLachlan, Ca-
nadian government agent at Water-
town, S. D., says: "I am well pleased
with the country. The climate is bet-
ter than I ever thought it could be
so far north; ideal climate for stock.
I have some colts and cattle that have
not been inside of a stable in four
years. I consider this a fine country
for mixed farming. I know of farm-
ers around here who had 42 bushels
of barley to the acre and 55 bushels
of oats to the acre."
Jacob Goetz of Plapot, Sask., had 43
acres of wheat from which he got
1,200 bushels, and got an average of
93 bushels of oats to the acre.
Golden Prairie, Sask.. is a district
largely settled by South Dakotans.
Horace Blake Is one of those: He
says: "The crops of 1915 were im-

Wheat in his locality went from 40
to 55 bushels per acre; oats about 80
bushels on an average. One hundred

Vegetable Compound I feel like a new person and
am in better health and no moro troubled with
the aches and pains I had before I took your won-
