WOMEN OF MIDDLE AGE A Trying Period Through Which Every Woman Must Pass Practical Suggestions Given by the Women Whose Letters Follow

Phila., Pa.—“ When I was going through the Change of Life f was weak, nervous, dizzy and had headaches. I was troubled in this way for two years and was hardly able to do my work. My friends advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I am very sorry that I did not take it sooner. But I have got good results from it and am now able to do my housework most of the time. I recommend your medicine to those who have similar troubles. I do not like publicity, but if it will help other women I will be glad for you to use my letter.’’—Mrs. Fannie Rosenstein, 882 N. Holly St., Phila., Pa. Detroit, Michigan—“ During the Change of Life I had a lot of stomach trouble and was bothered a great deal with hot flashes. Sometimes I was not able to do any work at all. I read about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound in your little books and took it with very good results. I keep house and am able now to do all my own work. I recommend your medicine and am willing for you to publish my testimonial.”—Mrs. J. S. Livernois, 2051 Junction Avenue, Detroit, Mich.

The critical time of a woman’s life usually comes between the years of 45 and 50, and is often beset with annoying symptoms such as nervousness, irritability, melancholia. Heat flashes or waves of heat appear to pass over the body, cause the face to be very red and often bring on headache, dizziness and a sense of suffocation. Another annoying symptom which comes at this time is an inability to recall names, dates or other small facts. This is liable tomakea woman lose confidence in herself. She becomes nervous, avoids meeting strangers and dreads to go out alone. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is especially adapted to help women at this time. It exercises a restorative influence, tones and strengthens the system, and assists nature in the long weeks and months covering this period. Let it help carry you through this time of life. It is a splendid medicine for the middle-aged woman. It is prepared from medicinal roots and herbs and contains no harmful drugs or narcotics.

ALL WOMEN SHOULD WEAR CORSETS, SAYS DR. LORENZ Dr. Adolf Lorenz appeared as an i advocate of corsets for women durI ing his Health Department clinic, I said the New York Tribune. “Every woman should wear a corset,” said the famous surgeon. “Possibly the young girl should be excepted.' The corset not only braces j vital organs that need bracing, but is a preventive of spinal troubles. “I do not say that women should squeeze their waists as once they did. I am referring to corsets of today, designed on common sense lines. The important thing is that the corset should in every instance boa perfect fit. “I frequently prescribe corsets modeled after casts made of the patients under my observation. I agree with Health Commissioner Copeland in his observation that a corset gives to a woman the sense of being completely dressed and thus contributes to her piece of mind, which is beneficial." o_ LET’S TAKE A CROWD The democratic state convention will be held at Indianapolis .May 31 and June 1 and it will be an enthusiastic one with a number of contests.

SULPHUR CLEARS J PIMPLY SKIN APPLY SULPHUR AS TOLD WHEN YOUR SKIN BREAKS OUT Any breaking out of the skin on face, neck, arms or body is overcome quickest by applying Rowles MenthoSulpbur. The pimples seem to dry right up and go away, declares a noted skin specialist. Nothing has ever been found to take the place of sulphur as a pimple remover. It is harmless and inexpensive. Just ask any druggist for a small jar of Rowles Mentho Sulphur and use it like cold cream.

BANKERS’ PRESIDENT TELLS OF ATTITUDE ON THE BONUS White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., May 10. —The attitude of the bankers of the United States towards the Soldier's bonus was stressed today in the address of President Thomas U. McAdams of Richmond, Va., In ills annual report to the American Rankers Association. i McAdams is vice-president of the Merchants National Rank of Richmond and the report was presented before the executive council of the organization. Regarding the bonus leglslatoln, McAdams said: "The Association's stand in opposition to the soldier bonus has evoked much favorable comment from the press and business interests of the country. As was to be expected, however. it met with serious opposition from some members of the Legion and scattered bankers and individuals throughout the country. These protests, as a rule, were based upon the feeling that the men who served had lost an opportunity to make as much money as those who stayed at home and should bo compensated for this financial loss. "If this argument be sound, no one has as yet suggested any plan by which this discrepancy could actually be adjusted or intimated and amount in dollars and cents which such a settlement would necessitate. "The average soldier Is under the impression the premiums paid for War Risk Insurance covered the cost of the operation of this Department and the only liability in connection therewith was assumed and met by the soldiers themselves, without any participation by the American public at large. "While it is true the soldiers were called upon and did pay a monthly premium for this purpose, yet this premium was a minimum one and did not take into account the unusual hazards of war, which portion of the liability was definitely assumed by the American people. "The facts speak for themselves. The latest figures available show that the government has received $400,000,000 in premiums and assume definite liabilities under term policies for losses and otherwise aggregating $1,300,000,000, resulting in a deficit of $900,000,000, which has therefor become a deficit, though cheerfully as-

sumed, debt of the American people, to be met and paid by taxation. "This fact is mentioned simply for • the purpose of showing the American people have not ben altogether unappreciative of the service rendered by tile armed forces of the country to their nation. Burden on Banks. "The bill which has passed the house, is of direct interest to the bank ers of the country in that it places upon the banks the burden of financing such cash advances as may bo received by the individual soldier. While the banks are not obligated to discount a soldier’s note, yet failure to do so will unquestionably subject the individual institution to a charge of being unwilling to cooperate with the government and the soldier. On the other hand, if these advances bo made, many of them will have to be carried as past due for a period of three years, when the government agrees to reimburse the banks for advances made, under certain conditions imposed by the bill. "The comptroller of the currency has, with propriety, sounded a warning against this method of financing, which, if generally acceded to by the banks will result in tieing up hundreds of million of dollars which will be needed, especially in the small communities, In the usual channels of trade. ..The legislation is also particularly objectionable, in that it is another evidence of the power of an organized minority in influence legislation in this country which may be of selfish advantage to the particular group involved and which does not take into consideration its serious damage to the country as a whole. We cannot lightly consider increasing the debt of our people ovefr five times the amount of the total indebtness of the government prior to the war and Congress has no right to put the tremendous burden of from $5,000,000,000 to $6,000,000,000 upon our people, with out at the same time making specific provision for the retirement of the obligation. If this be a burden which should properly be assumed by the American people then we should as loyal Americans meet the issue at. this time and raise, through a definite form of taxation, sufficient sums of money to provide for (lie payment of the obligation within some reason able time limit. Burden of the Bonus. "The trouble is, our representatives in Washington have been unable to find suport for any measure which specifically places the burden of this donation upon the shoulders of the people at large. Every effort to dis-

tribute the tax broadly lias met with determined opposition and so the bill in its present shape has been drafted and passed by the house under the assumption that later on some way will lie found by which some indefinite group of citizens, not yet designated will be called on to pay the bill. To provide for a general distribution of government funds without advising the individuals who will pay the bill of the character of obligation thus placed upon them may be good politics —it Is certainly questionable economics. "If this be a debt of honor, then It is only fair that every man, woman and child in America should participate. and those who advocate it should Insist that no man should be allowed to escape from paying his full proportion." •—: PASSION PLAY IS RESUMED WITH LANG AS CHRIST Oberammergau, May 10. — (Special to Dally Democrat) —After an interval of eleven years, the Bavarian villagers of Overammergua will tomorrow renew the production of their famous Passion play. At eight o'clock in the morning, the 700 participants in the production will put aside their respective trades and until the end of the season will attempt to live the part assigned to them in the story of the life of Christ. Anton Lang, who became world famous through his portrayal of Christ in the plays of 1900 and 1910 will again appear in the principal part. Andreas Lang will assume the role of Peter, Guidi Mayr, Judas, Maria Vert Mary, and Paula Bondi, the Magda lene. All of the costumes for the gigantic pageant were made in the village at the cost of over 50,000, the materials having been obtained in Berlin, Munich and Paris. Some of the rarer materials were procured in Damascus and Jerusalem. Until 1910 the play had been produced every ten years since 1634. A production was planned for 1920, but the war led to a postponement. Every ten years there are of necessity, many changes in the cast. Anton Lang tics this year with Joseph Mayr, in being chosen for the part of Christ on three successive occasions. Mayr. is is said, died of a broken heart when he was no longer selected for the title role. Johann Zwick. on one Occasion so closely identified himself with his part—Jutieavthat carried away by the tension of the scene, he tried to hang himself. In earlier times the play was performed outside thevillage church on a platform of rough boards. Now it is
