Women Who Wear Well.

II Is astonishing how great q change Q

the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the

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

riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robblng the cheek
OF its freshness and the form Of its
fairness.

A very ingenious little car and a
more. ingenious appeal To the credulity
of possible investors are the principal
things noticeable in the "demonstra
tions" OF the Automatic Transportation
Co. which are held each day In the
company's branch Office in the Bamlet
building This is a scheme In which
Detroit and Michigan investors are
asked 10 put their good money In the
hope OF getting future returns OF a
very profitable nature.
II is as alluring as a gold mine and
appears 10 have about the same sub
stantial basis for hope as the average
gold mining proposition that Is adver'
Used similarly.
George Carr. brother of the BufYalo
man who invented the machine, OF
transportation system rather. Is TN
charge OF the Detroit Office. His suite
comprises three rooms. the first oc'
cupied by a typewriter and piles OF
literature. the second by Mr.. Carr and
stack OF blue prints. and the third
by a track designed TO show on q
model carrier OF the new type, which
IS announced as being about TO revolu-
tionize transportation methods.
The car runs on an elevated track,
and the great principle OF the device
Is the fact that power Is conveyed di'
iectly by the two rails. The rails
are hollow and the power Is secured
through a roller transmission under
meath one rail. somewhat similar IN
