mother Is a barrier of reserve. lust
word of advice or counsel might
mean so much to girl at time so crit
ical, but she shrinks from asking the
question, and the mother refrains from
OPP .ling the subject, though in the pal
lid cheeks and dark trimmed eyes she
reads the signs of woman's suffering.
THE NEED OF HELP.
There is a real need of help for the
young woman. Neglect may pave the
way for years of suffering. The dawn
Of womanhood is one of the crises of a
wornan's life, and every care should be
taken to prevent or cure arrangements
which may have serious results in later
life.

Gladys Is the
Name of a Great
Many Babies Hereabout.

fond parents dote more on "sweet"
names for girl babies than for boy
babies. There are not many unusual
names among the list of boy babies
born the past year, but here are some
samples of names given girls; Aldene,
Goldie, Audrey. Nevada, Arlene, Per
mella, Dorsa, Carletta, Roberta, Coda,
Falicie, Labella, Florina, Victoria,
Madeline, Mona, Gloria, valida.
There is a baby girl in the Sixth
ward whose three given names are
Cora Leona Alfredo. She is the most
named baby in the assessors books.
There are no Deweys or Simpsons
or schleys in this years reports among
the names given boys. Mckinley is
used as middle name In two or three
instances Geo, Washington is used
several times. Nash is the name
Of one boy whose father may be a

can, at least.
A few OF the less common names
given boys are Roland, Ivan, Lotus,
Erred.
1t is noticeable in the reports that
people are often very slow in naming
the baby. They may have name for
the precious bit Of humanity but when
the assessor comes around and with an
official air demands to know the ba-
by's name, the cognomen in use may
sound so common that sweeter name
is wanted and so the man is told that
baby is not yet named. Some babies
whose age is shown to be bordering
very close on year are thus put
down, unnamed"

SUMMER TRADE
In Tobacco Remains
Steady.
Business Is DuIlest lmmediatel,
After Christmas.

'We have no slack time during the
summer" said prominent Akron to-
bacconist, Tuesday morning. Our
trade is remarkably steady during the
entire year, the only noticeable de-
crease being Immediately after Christ
mas, when fond relatives and rela-
tives-to-be have purchased cigars, etc :,
by the box for their friends. Perhaps
the slump at that time is due to the
fact that Christmas cigars are often
selected for the beauty of the picture
OH the box, and the recipient Is likely
to become considerably less eager for
his usual smokes, until the baneful
effect OF the Christmas smokes has
passed away"

Gladys is more common name ia
the coming generation OF Summit
county girls than good, oldfashioned
Mary. 1t Is remarkable how large the
crop of Infants on which that name
has been bestowed, is shown to be
by the assessors reports to the pro

In every ward and in almost every
township, the Gladys predominate,
and the complete list would show that

Why Unclaimed Express Packages

Express companies are getting ready
for their annual old horse sales, and
Now, laugh will you? That's ex-
actly what they're called--'old horse"

For your especial beneflt--"old horse"
means unclaimed express packages,
which are sold annually at auction,
and to a Democrat reporter Tuesday
evening, Mr.. 7. L. Elliott, local man
ager of the Adams Express Co., told
an interesting story Of how "Old

claimed goods.

but it isn't. Mr.. Alvin Adams, who
founded the company bearing his
name, at Boston, away back in the

quite peculiar way.

only one horse, an old plug we'd call
1t. and it was Il very slow animal.

had to buy team, and when goods

the one offering the highest price
should secure the wool. The first
buyer was not to be outdone by his
rival, so marked; "$2 more on entire

that amount besides the So premium.

Ut AkTon laSL year.
1t is not always compliment to the
town for the express companies to
select them as place for the annual
"old horse" sales. Another express
man said: "They usually pick out a
jay town, where there are lots of
suckcrs-people who want something
for nothing, and snap at every oppor-
tunity.'
This, however, is certainly not u
fixed rule, because the American Ex-
press Co. always holds its annual "old
horse" sale in Cleveland.
1t is interesting to stop for mo-
ment and consider how business Is
divided among the Akron branches OF
the express companies. The Adams
