AM EMIEXT TO -' THE STATE CONSTITUTION The 9th and 10th amendments have to do with the enumeration of voters to fix the representation of the different counties in the General Assemro bly and State Senate. Now the voters ond are counted every six years for this hie urpose. : the amendrjtnt passes ""'ie number of voters will be determ.ned by the vote for Secretary of State in 1924 and each s;ix years thereafter. It will save expense and can do no harm. However, in counties where the voters do not vote the representatives will be reduced. This is Just If a voter neglects to vote he should not be counted in fixing representation for his county. The 11th changes the term of office of Secretary, Auditor and Treasurer of State from two to four years and it makes such officers ineligible to succeed themselves. It tends toward uniformity and makes all state officers hold four years. D. J. MORAS. Hammond, Indiana.

And it is. You can use this letter for a testimonial if you wish." Mrs. Harry A. Wilson. R. F. D. 5, Clearfield, i'a. The experience and testimony of such women as Mrs. Wilson prove beyond a doubt that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetaole Compound will correct such troubles by removing the cause and restoring the system to a healthy normal condition. When such symp'toms develop as backaches, bearing-down pains, displacements, nervousness and "the blues "a woman cannot act too promptly in trying Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound if she values her future comfort and haDiness.
