Mrs. L. S. Webb
Viee-President Of women's Democratic
Clubs Of Northern Ohio.

p HERE are many sickly women be-
tween the ages of 45 and S., but
- there are very few invalids over 55
or 60 years of age. The change of
life coming to a woman near her forty
fourth year. either makes her an invalid or
gives her a new lease on life. Those who
meet this change in i'll health seldom live
ten years afterward, while woman who
lays aside the active duties OF womanhood
in health seldom fails 10 live on in happi-
ness, years after she has passed 60. During
the change OF life, the menstrual function
gradually disappears. This is truly a crit
ical time.
Mrs. Laura s Webb, Of Toledo, Ohio
recognizes the change of life as danger
ous period and she also has faith in Wine
OF Cardui. She writes;
"As had always been troubled more or
less al the menstrual period, dreaded the
change u life which was fast approaching.
While visiting with friend noticed that
she was taking your Wine Of Cardui, and
she was so enthusiastic about it that decided
to Try bottle, Experienced some reliei the

tion of a new general manager for the
Pennsylvania Railroad company Is the
beginning of general change in the

hegiuning to tell upon them.
The new general manager it. is said
will be W. w. Atterbury, who is a,
present general superintendent of mo-
tive power of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road company. Mr.. Atterbury was at
the Office of the company bat had little
to say in regard to his selection and
would not confirm or deny the
report.
1t is rumored that Richard N. Dur
borrow. superintendent of motive pow
er Of the Pennsylvania railroad divi-
sion, with headquarters at Altoona, is
to be made chief of motive power.
Owing to the great increase in tho
business Of The Pennsylvania it is in

AFTER TRUANTS
Plain Township Officer Says
There are Many Youngsters
Out OF School.

R. V. Sholenberger. truant officer of
Plain township. was in Canton yes
terday afternoon on business con-
nected with his Office. He stated to 4
reporter that there was a great deal
of truancy in the township. which is
rather surprising in an agricultural
district. The township has thirteen
school districts and there are cases re-
ported in the greater number Of them,
The trouble, the officer states, is not
so much with the scholars as with the
parents, who keep the children at
home to work. He says he has noti-
fed all who have offended in this mat
ter, and the next move will be to
make some arrests.

Long Lost Farmer Surprised d
His Friends by q Sudden
Reapoeerance,

Chagrin Falls, O.. Dec. 10. - In the
month of June. 1900. Simeon Call. a
well known farmer who had always
resided in Kirkland township, suddenly
disappeared from his home, leaving no
more trace of his whereabouts than
If the earth had swallowed him. DE.
spite the persistent efforts of his rela-
tives, nothing has ever been heard Of
the man from that day and relatives
mourned him for dead.
On Thursday Call put in an appear
ance at the Kirkland farm, looking as
hale and hearty as he did two years
ago He had been working in the
lumber regions of Northern Michigan
and was greatly surprised to learn that
his friends had thought him dead.

penses &C Oh just the same when the
workman is idle. Then there are ex-
penses that must be met in the social
demands. There is an ambition, rath-
er questionable, perhaps, TO be in the
swim with the town crowd, and the
young fellow from: the farm chips in
when the gang is out together, tigur-
ing that next payday is near at hand
and he can stand it,
1t Is the minority who abstain from
unnecessary expenses and save money.
Some do. hut their name is not ie-
gion.
What Is true of the boys is also true
of the girls. They have an ambition
to dress as well as their city COUSINS
and they do so. The time has come
that the person who can tell the diff
ference between a we'll dressed cour-
try girl and one raised in the city
has passed. Their mannerisln and
taste in dress is not distinguishable
from the others.
There are in Canton hundreds OF
new arrivals from the farms and small
towns during the last year. Many of
them came with their families Others
having married since moving to the
I city and will become permanent resi-
dents. They become good citizens and
are welcomed by the merchants, the
manufacturers and all classes. The
only regrets come from The farms.
where their energy and skill are missed

busy harvest season.
