If her system is in a deranged condi-
ton, or she is predisposed to apoplexy
or congestion of any organ. it is at this
time likely to become active and, with
q host of nervous irritations, make life
burden.
At this time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to begin their destruc-
tive work. Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes, dir
illness, headache, dread of impending
pitation of the heart, sparks before the
eyes, Irregularities, constipation, varia-
BILE appetite, weakness and inquietude

women who are approaching the period
of life when woman's great change
may be expected.
We believe Lydia e. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound is the worlds great
est remedy for women at this trying
period.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound invigorates and strengthens the
female organism, and builds up the
weakened nervous system as no other
medicine can.
Mrs. A. e. G. Hyland, of Chester
town, Nd, In letter 10 Mrs. INK
ham, says:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

wrote you for advice and commenced treat
ment with Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound as you directed, and I am happy
to say that all those distressing symptoms left
me, and have passed safely through the
change of life well woman"

SEVENTEEN YEAR LOCUSTS COMING
Department of Agriculture Sends Gus arning That Their
 Appearance is Due.

As was stated in The Journal sometime ago, this is the year for the appearance of the seventeen year locusts, and the Department of Agriculture at Washington has sent out circnlar, warning those interested to be on the loukout for the brood. The visitation of the locusts Is not as serious as the n ise and disturbance they make would indicate. But they come in such numbers and so fill the woods with their singing that 1t appears to the casual observer that there must be veritabIe plague of the insects that cannot help doing immense damage.
 According to the warning sent out by the Department of Agri- culture, the brood is due to make it's appearance early in June, and the Department says the specie IS we'll known to entomoloQists and has been more or less definitely traced back to 1883. It appear ed then in New England, and was followed by a plague of sickness  that carried off many of the white settlers. The Indians knew the periodical cicada of old, and as- sured the whites when 1t first ap- peared that 1t would be followed by plague. The brood was lost sight of after its appearance in the early days, and the next au- thentic record of 1t is in 17S7, from which point the record has been definitely kept to the present time.
 The range of the pests, however, as mapped out by the Department, includes but little of Arkansas, and lies south and east of longi- tude 92 and latitude B, covering the southeastern part of the Unit ed States.

SHOT FROM AMBUSH

Albert Ferguson was shot from ambush while riding along the pub- lie road near Kings mill in Sharp county. James Cunningham, his father-in law, is charged with hay ing done the shooting and was bound over to await the action of the grand jury. The weapon used was a shot gun and Ferguson re- ceived heavy charge of shot in one arm and side, but was not dangerously wounded.

self.operative, in that 1t does not provide a means of determining the total vote cast in the election. 1t is therefore. necessary to adopt the statutory provisions, the court held, which make it the duty of the speaker of the house to declare the amendments adopted or de- feated and give him only the vote on the five constitutional offices on which to base his decisioa.
 Inasmuch as the road tax amend ment received majority of the total vote cast for each of the five constitutional officers the court held that the amendment had been legally adopted.
 The case was appealed to the su- preme court, and an effort will be made to have the higher court ad- vance the case so that a decision may be obtained before the court adjourns for the summer recess.
