Lady Rhondda as president of the Institute of Directors, said that women generally are more eventempered and more businesslike than men. "They do not rise to such heights of disastrous imagination or sink to such depths of despair and they are less likely to plunge,” he eaid. Lady Rhondda did not agree with him. There are now more than two hundred women acting as directors of important business concerns in England, Lady Rhondda said. She is, in her own words, “keen to see women admitted to the* Stock Exchange." DAMP CAUSES DISEASE Rheumatic Heart Trouble Traced to British Climate. Bu United Press LONDON.

A Baby in the Home NO KING on his golden throne demands and receives more homage from his willing subjects than a baby in the home. The smallest member of the family requires a great deal of attention. Sometimes, in caring for her child, a mother overtaxes her own strength. Particularly when there are other children to work for, sli£ must learn to preserve her health. Then her home becomes a place of order and happiness. She finds time to play with her children and the whole family enjoys , the dimpled baby as he grows from day to day. Many young mothers-have learned that Lydia E. PinkHatr/S Vegetable Compound helps them to find the strength they need. § Before her marriage, Mrs. R. N. Frankum of 3947 Gold St., Omaha. Nebr., was a working girl. Like many girls, she sometimes had to home from her work. A friend told her of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and she found that it relieved her trouble. She was in good health until her second babv came. “I began to take the Vegetable Compound again,” she writes, “and was soon able to do my housework. Now I can say I never felt better in my life. Women ask me what I have been doing and I tell them about your medicine. I feel that I, owe a lot to it.”- / Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
