It is hard to toll Just now how tho

It is predicted that the Democratic

From Mill Girl to tho Manager of
Millions
Ten years ago Miss Smith worked
at a loom at ai wago of $400. But she
was the beat weaver in tho factory.
Now she draws a salary of 6000 a
year besides a working Interest and
has handled fully two million dollars.
She runs a big farm of 2600 acres
owned by Jafnos Duke a millionaire
and employs during the season as
many as 400 people.
The secret of her success?
She soya there Is no secret about it.
Har promotions havo come naturally.
In nvervthlnsr she has tried to do a
little better than anyone else would
do. She has patiently compelled con
fidaneo.
Of course Miss Smith was born
with executive ability. But that
would never count aB a factor had sho
not attended strictly to business.
In Oils prosaic work-aday world of
ours aro no fairy wands or Aladdan's
lanterns. Strict attention to the mat-

WHY MEN DON'T GO TO CHURCH.
(From tho New York Sun.)
Several preachers puzzle! them-
selves and their congregations last
Sunday by trying to discover and ex-
plain the reasons why men don't go to
church. Now there Is no mystery
whatever alout that matter. The men
don't go to churoh limply bocnuse
thoy don't bollevo in tho necessity lor
going.
Censuses of tho churoh attendance

er American cltloa. takon last year.
showed that In both co-mtrles wo-
men "ml thiMron mako up lio vast
majority of tho congregations z.t
j churches . Usually it Is the same In
all tho countries of Christendom
with Russia n notablo oxcoptlon anJ
also some Gorman states. This dem-
ration ot tho greater iogard for
religions observances among women
would be made to nppoar the moro
striking it there could bo enumerat-
ed the large part ot mon churchgo-
ers who are in attendance simply out
of courtesy to their wives or sweet-
hearts or because they havo yielded
good naturedly to reminlne persua-
sions. I The preachers contjiiAln that at this
I tine the criticism of sermons has be
come m severe among men that only
very rare abilities in the pulpit can
Ivope to Mtlefy it. But there is noth
ing in that suggestion which affords
a rtiiaoflRUle explanation of the ten -
deney of men to stay away from
every receipt

Bartlesvllle Kansas which town Is
ono year old and haB a population of
over 0000 mainly duo to the fact that
oil is in Its town. There are now 80

MRS. J. T. COADY Treasurer of the
Ivy Leaf Club 1702 Cth Avonue
Council Bluffs Iowa writes:
"Peruna Is no experimental medi-
cine. I have used It off arid on now
for three years. At that time I was
cured of Irregular and painful men'
struatlon. Since thai time I have
taken It for Indigestion or whenever I
felt overworked and In need of a tonic
and I have always found that ft was of
great benefit to me. I am therefore
pleased and happy to say a word In Its
praise and shall gladly Indorse It to
my friends." 'Mrs. J. P. Coady.
Miss ITattlo Grace 51 West 40th St.
New York writes:
'Peruna has changed me from a
fretful. Irritable nervous woman Into
a healthy and a happy one. Nothing
seems to worry and to fret mo any
more. Since early womanhood I suf-
fered with bearing down pains and
nervousness. I was thin and worried
but Peruna restored me. Those who
knew me before cannot understand
the change but I cat' sum It all up In the
blessed word Peruna." Ilattle Grace.
Mrs. Elizabeth Ferguson No. 18lDlt
St. Brooklyn N. Y. President West
Brooklyn Audubon Society writes:
"1 am pleased to tell what a blessing
Peruna has been to me. Several years
ago my constitution seemed broken
down and 1 cared Utile whether I lived
or died. 1 had taken so much medi-
cine that the sight of a bottle made me
sick. I had read about Peruna curing
women and I thought perhaps It would
help me. I bought a bottle and before
It was finished 1 felt better. 1 kept on
taking It and after three months'
faithful use 1 was a well woman and
able to do the work and undergo the
strain of younger days." Elizabeth
Ferguson.
