COULD NOT STAND ON FEET Mrs. Baker So Weak Could Not Do Her Work Found Relief In Novel Way. Adrian, Mich. "I suffered terribly with female weakness and backache and

got so weak that I could hardly do my work. When I washed my dishes I

j had to sit down and when I would sweep

the floor I would get so weak that I would have to get a drink every few minutes, and before I did my

dusting I would have to lie down. I got

po poorly that my folks thought I was going into consumption. One day I found a piece of paper blowing around the yard and I picked it up and read it. It said 'Saved from the Grave,' and told what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for women. I showed it to my husband and he said, 4 Why don't you.try it ? ' So I did, and after I had taken two bottles I felt better and I said to my husband, 'I don't reed any more,' and he said 'You had better take it a little longer anyway.' So I took it for three months and got well and strong." Mrs. Alonzo E. 15AKEK, 9 Tecumseh St., Adrian, Mich. Not AVell Enough to Work. In these words is hidden the tragedy of many a woman, housekeeper or wage earner who supports herself and is often helping to support a family, on meagre wages Whether in house, office, factory, shop, store or kitchen, woman should remember that there is one tried and true remedy for the ilia to which all women are prone, and that is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It promotes thiit vigor which makes work easy. The Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass.

"Read that! Warren demanded, as he took a letter from his pocket and threw it in Helen s lap. July 25, 1912. Mr. W. E. Curtis, No. West One Hundred and Tenth Street, NewYork City. My Dear Sir: We beg to inform you that beginning October 1, the rent in your house is to be advanced. The new rate for apartment No. 504, which you are now occupying, will be $1,400. As we are now having many applicants for these apartments, will you kindly let us know at the earliest possible date if you wish to renew your lease? We hope that you will remain with us, and will be glad to make any repairs or redecorations that may be necessary. Very truly yours, The Harmsworth Realty Co. "Fourteen hundred!" Helen looked up with a gasp of dismay. "Surely they won't charge fourteen hundred for this apartment?" "Sounds as though they are going to, doesn't it?" "And this is the middle of September! Why Warren, what CAN we do?" "Pay it or get out, of course. Don't give us much time, though. You see, that is dated July 15 came while we were away, and got mixed in with some papers at the office. Didn't come across it until this morning." "Then they may be already rented. Since they didn't hear from you, they have probably leased it to some one else." "No, I called up the office today. It is still open, but we will have to decide this week." "Hut could we get anything else now?" Warren shrugged his shoulders. "Won't hurt to try. How about those apartments on Central Park West? That new house we looked at with the Stevens' la6t spring. The Palisadium, wasn't it, or some such high falutiu' name?' "Oh, but it is too expensive. Didn't they say they hadn't anything for less than sixteen hundred?" "Well, I had a darn sight rather pay sixteen hundred there than fourteen here. Put your bonnet on we will take a look at them now." "Rut isn't it too .late to see apartments?" objected Helen. "Why it Is almost eight." "They will be glad enough to show them. Come, get your things on. When you make up your mind to do a thing that is the time to do it." Warren often acted on such sudden impulses, and Helen knew it would be useless to protest. Half an hour later they entered the marbled, over decorated hall of the "Pallisadium." The brass-buttoned elevator poy said the superintendent was out, that they had one vacant, apartment, which he could let them see, but he did not know the rent. He took them up to the tifth floor front, switched on the lights, and left them, while he hurried back to his elevator. It was a seven-room apartment with library, living room and dining room thrown together. "Oil, these three rooms are really wonderful," exclaimed Helen. "Why, this library must be over twenty feet." "Um-in. just about twenty, I should say. They are good-sized rooms, all right good shaped rooms, too." "And look at the floors, why dear, they are all parquet. And the mantels and woodwork are so good. Fumed oak, inn! it? Don't you like this dull

finish? Let's see the bedrooms,"! eagerly. But: both bedrooms were small, and the maid's room smaller still. "Well, you can't have everything. They have put all the space in those front rooms and had to skimp on these." j "Oh, what a little closet!" disap-' pointedly, as she opened a door displaying a shallow space. "Why don't they have more closet room? Just thin;;, only three small closet3 , in all this apartment?" "Women are always howling for closets. Don't collect so much truck." "Why dear, we must have some place to put our clothes." But Warren was now investigating the bathroom. "Good-sized tub that's what I like. You have to sit humped up in most of them. That looks like a good shower, too." "Oh, rhat cunning little cabinets! And look, dear, another long mirror in this door that makes three. And we haven't one that I can see the bottom of my skirt in." But Warren, who was examining the plumbing, seemed more interested in that than in the mirrored doors. Then they went back through the dining room to the kitchen. Helen was more enthusiastic. "Oh, what a nice kitchen! Don't you like the way the range sets back? These china closets are lovely. White woodwork is always so good for a kitchen it makes everything look so clean. ; "Good-sized pantry, too," as Warren swung open the door. "Yes. it IS a big pantry, and what a lovely refrigerator!" "What is this," he demanded, open- i ing a small metal door near the floor, i "Oh, that must be a ventilated garbage box. Mrs. Stevens has one, and she says they are so nice. You see.

it ventilates outside, and the lid comes down on the garbage when you shut the door. And look, dear, here is a bread board. Isn't that a good idea?" as she raised up a board that was hinged to the wall. "But what Is this for?" "Search me. I am not up on all the latest housekeeping knick-knacks. But I should say they've a pretty good outfit here." "Oh, the appointments of the kitchen and pantry are wonderful. The whole apartment is ideal if they had ONLY one more closet!" "Throw away some of the rubbish. You have got stuff crowded in those closets until you can hardly shut the doors. If you had a dozen closets, you would have them all full. Now let's see these front rooms again." lie threw up a window in the library and leaned far out. "Yes, you have got good light and air here from all sides. Let's see this faces south that gives us south, north and east windows. Ought to get any breezes that are going." "And Warren, have you noticed the chandeliers? This one is particularly good and these side lights are good too." "Yes, they look like expensive fixtures. 1 should say that this was a pretty good house, well built, and well fitted. I will call up the agent tomorrow. Guess we have seen about all we can tonight. You go out, and I will switch off the lights. That' boy doesn't seem to be coming." As they waited for the elevator, Helen scrutinized the hall and stairway. "Everything seems so clean and well kept." "Yes, but all these apar.tment house halls have an institutional look. Can't imagine anything less cozy or homelike. This might be a hospital or a

: reformatory from the looks of the corI ridor." ; "But I suppose they have to build them fire-proof," ventured Helen. ; "Perhaps that is why they can't make I them more attractive." "Have you a plan of the building?" Warren asked the elevator boy, as they went down. "Yes, sir, but you will have to get it from the superintendent." "How about freight and service i everything po up on this elevator?'' "Oh. no, sir, there is a service elevator back there." "Laundry in the basement?" "Yes, sir, and we have a large steam drying room." "That is a good house," declared Warren, when they reached the street. I will wager it is well up. too. Did they have a mail chute? 1 forgot to notice." "Oh, yes. dear, right by the elevator." "That is a convenienc. They are putting them in so many houses now

have to have a certain number of tenants. Well I should say if we can get that apartment for sixteen hundred we ought to take it. But I want a two years' lease. No moving again next year."

"But, dear, do you think we could j afford to bind ourselves for two years at sixteen hundred?" i

"Wouldn't suggest it if I didn't." i "But you wouldn't decide I mean you wouldn't sign the lease tomorrow?" "Why not?" "Why why, 1 thought we might look around a little first." "If this apartment suits us, what is the use of looking around. That is

i ju6t. like a woman. Even if 6he finds ' just the thing she wants, she trots ! around to see the other things she doesn't want." J. "But, dear," protested Helen, "it i was only that I thought we might find i something for a little less." ! "Well. 1 don't want anything for less. That apartment suits me, and if'

I can get a two year's leae at sixteen hundred, I will sign up tomorrow. And for heaven's sake, don't you begin worrying about the rent. If I have got to pay it I can do the worrying, too."
