From the view point of the average
man housework is very easy. The wife
is right at home. She is her own mis-.
tress. She can sit down and rest any
time. She can even go to bed for a nap
if she feels like it. She can order her
household affairs just to suit her own
convenience. If she doesn't feel equal
to doing work to-day, she can do it
tomorrow That's the beautiful theOJv
OF the average man.
Just suppose the Egyptian task-mas-
ters, when they made the required
daily tale of bricks tax the uttermost
OF human strength, had said to the
.toling slaves, "DOn't hurry, take n
rest every now and then - only don't
forget that your tale of bricks must
be all right at night or else there'll be
trouble"
There's the fact. There are the
days duties to be got through, and the
women who can rest may not. The
woman, who, when she married, said,
"Now, I'll be my own MISTRESS" finds
herself a slave to household cares and
duties.
And oh how much that woman
needs rest sometimes. She brushes and
scrubs, and rolls pastry, her temples
throbbing, her back aching, her nerves
quivering under the stress of pain.
What she would give if she could lust
creep upstairs and throw herself on the
bed in a darkened room and rest.
Rest would temporarily relieve the
strain, doubtless, but it would be the
same story over again tomorrow. The
real need of weak, nervous women is
strength, and that need is fully met
and satisfied by DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women well. It re-
moves the causes OF women's weak
ness, tranquilizes and invigorates the

GRADERS BLOCK
GOULO'5 PASSAGE
PUT STRATEGIC CAMP NEAR
PORT LOS ANGELES
Will Cut Off the Malibu Road From
Santa Monica-Did Graders
Cause Collapse of Arch
Rock?

BY Associated Press.
SANTA MONICA, April "a large
camp of graders, under the supervision
of c. w. Street. has been established
at the mouth of Los Pulvus canyon,
just north of Port Los Angeles, and
today began the grading of a railroad
right of way northward from the end
Of the Southern Pacific tracks (Port
Los Angeles branch) half mile beyond
the long wharf.
The object of this grading has not
been learned authoritatively, all infor
nation being refused at the camp. But
the belief is abroad here that this is a
Hartman move to block the building
of the Hueneme, Port Los Angeles &s
Malibu railroad that is to connect
Santa Monica with Ventura and-sup-
posedly, in time-Los Angeles with San
Francisco via George Gould's Western
Pacific.
Last week the Hueneme, Port Los
Angeles &s Malibu company brought
proceedings to condemn right OF way
from Port Los Angeles to Malibu
ranch, and yesterday the same COM
pany brought further proceedings to
condemn right of way across the
Broome ranch into Hueneme.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-04-04
Complete Chain

AS the company already owns right
of way across Malibu ranch this would
give a complete chain from Santa
Monica TO Ventura.
1t is the belief expressed here that
the work of the graders now camped at
Los Pulyus canyon is to lay Southern
Pacific rails in order to cut off tho
Malibu road from entrance into Santa
Monica. But no one knows the facts,
Harrimans recent acquisition of the
Los Angeles-Pacific road may figure in
the plot.
The discovery of the disappearance
of Arch rock, a noted landmark on this
coast for more than a century, gave
rise to the idea that it had gone down
in the recent storm. Now, however, it
is suspected that powder in the hands
of the Pulvus canyon graders had to
do with the disappearance. There is
much comment on this score.
