HIGHWAY BODY OF OHIO HOUSE AGAINST REORGANIZATION BILL COLUMBUS, O., Iarch 11. Smoldering revolt in the general assembly on Gdvernor Harry L. Davis's reorganization bill broke out Thursday in two places. The entire highways' committee of the hous of representatives signed a resolutions protesting the transfer of ibis department to the proposed departments of public works. Members also denounced the proposal to turn over the functions of the state emergency board to one man, the director of finance, saying it would give a fund of $500,060 to the exec
utive to spend as he pleased. The resolution Of the highways committee cites the huge federal aid grants and says the department "is an agency of construction and investment, rather than ministerial," and one in which "the people all over the state especially are interested," and, therefore, "it is the urgent request of this committee that the highway department be and remain as a separate and distinct department." A formal copy was sent to the governor. Don't Like to Mix Funds. Chairman John W. GorreJl, of the committee, added that the annual expenditure of $24,000 should not be combined with the care of renting of
state property in the department of public works. Members of the committee are eager to learn the exact nature of the commitment in favor of the bankers. Power .Usurpation . Alleged. A spirited debate preceded the action the author contending the interstate commerce commission, in interfering , with internal affairs of the tates, had gone far beyond the purpose of the measure as explained in congress by Senator Albert B. Cummins and Congressman J. J. Eseh. He was supported by C. H. Freeman, of Hardin county, who denied that the Jeffersonians had full claim to a position for state sovereignty, and by Walter H. Albaugh, of Miami county, who warned that government was being centralized more and more and the original constitution perverted. He was opposed by Justin Harding, of Warren county, who pointed to President Harding as one of its chief advocates, and by Robert A. Taft, of Hamilton county, who ridiculed the terms of the resolution, predicated upon an alleged usurpation of power by the commission, and said that the courts could care for this feature. In a few minutes today the house adopted a constitutional amendment by Representative Veigel, of Henry county, ripping the provisions of 1912 under which the Ohio supreme court has cleared a congested docket, and
defeated one to submit the voting machine proposition. In the second action there was a manifest desire to allow the adverse decision of 1912 (-isnd. Defeat was accorded the Broads-tone bill, jeopardizing the teachers' Tension, by adding teachers of the Ohio . Soldiers' and Sailors' Orphans' home. APPEALS LIQUOR CONVICTION. R H E LB Y VI LLE, Ind.. March 11. Jor-n Cameron, of Indianapolis, was found guilty in city court on a charge of unlawfully having intoxicating liquor in his possession, and was fined $100 and costs and sentenced to Jail for thirty days.

Few of the companies that were formed found it possible to go on, but they tried to hold whatever money had come into their hands, and legal action had to be taken against them by the shareholders. With actions by the railway companies, and actions against them, it was a lawyer's harvest.

HOW WOMEN AVOID SURGICAL OPERATIONS Some Are Extremely Necessary, Others May Not Be j Every Woman Should Give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a Trial First
Chicago, 111. "I was in bed with a female trouble and inflammation and had four doctors but none of them did me anygood. They all said I would have to have an operation. A druggist's wife told me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I took 22 bottles, never missing a dose and at the end of that time I was perfectly well. I have never had occasion to take it again as I have been so well. I have a six room flat and do all my work. My two sisters are taking the Compound upon my recommendation and you may publish my letter, ft is the gospel truth and I will write to any one who wants a personal fetter." Mrs. E. H.

Compound, after it had been decided an operation was necessary i Burlington, Vt. "I suffered with female trouble, and had a number of doctors who said that I would never be any better until 1 had an operation. I was so bad I could hardly walk across the floor and could not do a thing. My sister-in-law induced me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and it certainly has helped me wonderfully. 1 keep house and do my work and have a small child. I have recommended Vegetable Compound to a number of my friends and you may publish my testimonial." Mrs. H.R.Sharon. . Apple Tree Point Farm, Burlington, Vt. In hospitals are many women who are there for surgical operations, and there' is nothing a woman dreads more than the thought of an operation, and the long weary months of recovery and restoration to strength if it is successful. It is very true that female troubles may through neglect reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but most of the commoner ailments of women are not the surgical ones ; tbey are not caused by serious displacements, tumors or growths, although the symptoms may appear the same. When disturbing ailments first appear take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to relieve the present distress and prevent more serious troubles. In fact, many letters have been received from women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after operations have been advised by attending physicians. Lydia E. Pinkham's Private Text-Book upon "Ailments Peculiar to Women" will be sent to you free upon request. "Write to The Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Massachnnc.
