Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great q change a..
few years of married life often make In.
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. The freshness, the charm, tAo
brilliance vanish like the bloom from ~
peach which is rudely handled. TBee.
matron is only dim shadow, faint echCs
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and )
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to The system through the :
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the check
of its freshness and the form Of it's
fairness.

SHOULD BE KEPT GOING.

II will be but few days before
the contract for the pavement of I'm

pleted. also the work of paving c
street. northwest. After these two
contracts will have been finished and
unless the citizens living on North /
Washington street close the contract |
II is the intention of the McQuatters /
company To move the paving plant |
To another point. II is time for III"
people living on other streets In the
resident portion part of the city to !
get awake and hold meetings and
present petitions TO the council to be
placed in an Improvement district.
Ardmore has an opportunity now to-
secure the entire street system of the
city paved at but "a small cost, and
paved streets are the best advertise
ment that IA city can have. When n
I visitor comes to the city and Is be-
/ ing shown over IL. the first thing
/ that greets him is the condition Of
/ the streets, and If We are prepared
to drive him over paved streets that
are second to none, but superior to
all others inasmuch as the best paw
ing material to be found in the world
Is right at our doors then he will
know that progress Is the watchword
Of the city.
Ardmore has gotten beyond the
swaddling clothes period in her
growth, and II we expect to show up
as a city we must pave.
The increase in the rents to be re-
ceived from house located on a
paved street will more than pay for
the pavement. The increase in the
value of the property, will more
than make up the loss. Then again,
the property owner has twenty years
within which TO pay for the work.
MIR. McCollum of the McQuatters
people is the authority for the state
ment that every time you put down
foot of pavement you add to the
wealth OF the city.
As TO the paving material used
the rock asphalt secured near here
Mr.. McCollum had the following to
g say:
, "Ardmore has indeed been favored
by natural advantages. The asphalt
, beds which surround the town. will
=, make the city famous and the citi
, zens wealthy II nothing else OF ma
= tural origin was not to be found
here But that is not the case. There
is oil and gas in plenty, mineral oi
several kinds and | am sure Other
. things which have not been unearth
ed"
The streets Of Ardmore should be
paved now, while the fever IL on,
continued the speaked, "and every
time you put down foot Of pave
ment you are helping build the town
just that much. ] am indeed glad
to see the town progress along thes'
lines"

One bear ran along the west-bound

the latter attempted to leap on the
train, but missed the observation plat
