MRS HENRY LEE

Owing to modern methods of living
not one woman in a thousand APP
proaches this perfectly natural change
without experiencing a train of very
annoying and sometimes p in f VI
symptoms.
This is the most critical period of
her whole existence and every woman
who neglects the care of her health
at this time invites disease and pain.
When her system is in a deranged
condition or she is predisposed to
apoplexy or congestion of any organ,
the tendency is at this per i o d
likely to become active and with a
host of nervous irritations make life a
burden. At this time also cancers
and tumors are more liable to form
and begin their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as sense
of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
backaches, melancholia, dread of inn
pending evil, palpitation of the heart,
irregularities, constipation and dizzi-
ness are promptly needed by intel
ligent women who are approaching
the period of life when this gre
change may be expected.

The Car Icinq HoId-Up.

Some of the eastern shipping asso-
Citations are getting after the refriger-
ator carline companies with a sharp
stick. The trouble hinges on the ic-
ing charges, which are exorbitant.
What are known as full-tank icing
charges must be paid in the case of
peaches and other highly perishable
products while half-tank icing charges
furnished at about sixty per cent of
the full-tank charges, may be used in
the shipment of grapes and certain
other fruits in the event-and only
in the event-that shipper using
this service shall first sign contract
taking the whole risk of shipment up
on himself and acquitting Armour car
lines and the carriers from all liza
bility for loss on the fruit in transit.
The movement of grapes would be
greatly curtailed if compelled to move
under the full-tank icing tariff on ac-
count of the charge being greater
than the traffic will bear; consequent
ly, the shipper has his choice of al
lowing his grapes to rot, or else to
sign and ship under this half-tank ic-
ing contract. 1t has been found that
none of the icing charges appear on
any freight schedules issued by the
carriers or filed with the Interstate
commerce commission. Many hun
dreds of thousands of dollars have
been collected by the carriers under
these methods and practices and the
great bulk of it paid by the con-
signees without question or protest.
