FACTS
SICK
WON
LYDIA E. PINKHAM

No other medicine has been so
successful in relieving the suffering
of women or received so many gem
uine testimonials as has Lydia L.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
In every community you will find
women who have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound. Almost every
one you meet has either been bene-
flied by it, or has friends who have.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at
Lynn, Mass, any wOmanany daymay
see the files containing over one mil
lion one hundred thousand letters
from women seeking health, and
may read the letters in which they
openly state over their own sigma
lures that they were cured by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has saved many women
from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is made from roots and
herbs, without drugs, and is whole
some and harmless.
The reason why Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is so
successful is because it contains in
gradients which act directly upon
the feminine organism, restoring it
to healthy normal condition.
Women who are suffering from
those distressing ills peculiar to their
sex should not lose sight of these
facts or doubt the ability of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
to restore their health.

K. Rambul
On Oct. 2 the mother took her
daughter to Europe, where she was
joined by Mr.. Speer 1t was planned
at first to have the bride study sing

be annulled, but the idea was aban-
doned. When the Speers came here
from Atlanta they stopped at the Ho-

night that they were not at that ho-
tel and We're not expected.
Mrs. Thomas is the daughter of

Cotton Sold at Various

Some cotton was sold yesterday
morning on basis of S% cents for
good middling, but in the afternoon
the demand was only present at a
reduction of lie to is of a cent.
Offerings at the decline were not

for the day were 113 bales and the

The Scalp OyerIfeated

Thus they finished up what little
good was left in the hair. The scalp
became overheated, was always
moist, and caused the hair to lose
and fall out.
The hair should be left to itself
without hairpins or combs for a GER
tain part of every day If a woman
has to sew all morning, she should
drop her hair down and give the scalp
chance for air.
But the best of all treatment for
hair and scalp is gentle massage
upon getting up and before retiring.
The latter is especially important.
The hair should be shaken loose,
not merely undone It should be
shaken out in divisions and lifted up
by strands. 1t is astonishing how
much thicker it will look and how
gratefully it gathers new life to it.
SELF
Then the fingers should be run
through the hair, beginning at the
forehead, and the whole scalp gone
over in backward and forward rot

COLORED COLLARS
NOW TIE THING
All Manner of More or
Less Glowing HueS.

New York. Nov 13-Black coats
and gray; brown coats and blue; all
, to have colored collars. A mole-gray
tweed striped with brown (there is
a perfect rage for stripesD has a
military scarlet color of velvet, lined
with satin to match. A black cloth
lined with green. has a bright emer-
aid collar in peau de sole, and a dull
lizard-green coat has one in duh
blue, almost covered with narrow
lines of dark green braid.
Again, a suit of London smoke
tweed has its sombreness relieved by
collar of thick gold embroidery. No
one need be gloomily dressed this
winter If a bit of color cannot be
managed in the hat. the waistcoat or
the vest, one may fall back upon the
collar. There is a lovely shade of
bright old rose that is at its best
in velvet, and this would go with
any shade of the ever-popular gray.
Another beautiful color. well adapt
ed to the same purpose, is Gobelin
blue. 1t is not startlingly bright,
like Natter, but, having plenty of
gray III it, chums up with an other
color into whose company it is
thrown, and is thousand times
more becoming than it's brighter sis
ters.
One of the new circular cloaks
for evening-another sartorial reviv-
al-was made of darkest elephant
gray cloth, with collar in velvet
of this blue, and lined with silk to
match When over old red or yellow
the cloak will look It's best.

Portable There is no trouble about
getting the arms into ard out of

that one can fold it we'll even when

TROUBLE OVER BOOKS
FOR STATE SCHOOLS

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 13-The state
text book commission is still at work,
endeavoring to find some way out
of the difficulties that have been
encountered through the approaching
expiration of present contracts.
New ones must be let by January
l, and no regular bids have as yet
been advertised for.
The commission is holding daily
meetings for the purpose of trying
to reach some conclusion, but none of
its members is talking about what
transpires. Many agents of publish
ing houses are here working in be-
half of their publications.
The situation arises because of the
uniform text book law, which re-
quires revision of the uniform
books every five years.

FALSE HAIR HAS
MANY ADVANTAGES
Suggestion for Women On
This Theme

New York, Nov. 13-It is true that
it makes little difference these days
whether or not one has much hair. 1t
is rather a nuisance if one does. 1t
is almost impossible to arrange the
ends of ones hair, no matter how
plentiful, into the Bluffs and braids
and eurls necessary to a stylish col
fure
False hair is accepted by every
body now as much as it was in other
epochs. and it is easily adjusted with
far better result than any arrange
ment of ones own hair.
One thing is certain, however. EX-
pert work and constant care must
be used to keep ones own hair and
scalp in condition when so much
false hair is laid over it to heat
it.
Of the two evils, ruffling and
curling the hair or wearing false
hair the latter is the easier remedy.
The curling iron is less injurious to
the hair than all manner of devices
which break and snap the strands
off at the roots.
Far better wear the largest rat.
or ruff as it is now called, under
the pompadour, than ruff ones own
hair into a tangled mess to give it
body.
The hairdressers warn women
against this They insist it does
more harm in one week than Marcel
waving does in six months. This
sounds plausible A woman who
wants to make her pompadour stand
out will take a comb and tangle
her hair up into an uncomfortable
mass every day, and then she won
ders why her hair is broken into
short ends and falls out every time
it is brushed.
AS much as possible the hair should
be left to hang quite loose or in a
plat in the house. Every careful
woman combs her hair out at night,
and plaits it loosely, but there are
many opportunities for this during
the day that she omits
Fresh air and sunshine is neces-
sary for scalp and hair The mod
ern girl is such an extremist that
she runs from one fad to another
concerning her hair as well as ev-
erything elso, so that the result is
there are few good heads of hair
among well-dressed women.
First, she didn't wear hats through
six months of the year because she
believed in the sun and air treatment.
She over did it, and saw her hair
burned to a crisp by the sun be-
cause all the natural oil was dried
out of it.
AS soon as she discovered this she
rushed into another extreme She
now wears a hat all day and half the
night AT the summer hotels this
year girls and women put on hats
before breakfast and never appeared
bareheaded during the walking hours,
whether they were out or in doors.
