Women Who Wear Wen.

Jsis astonishing how great 8 change
,.v wears Of married life often MAKE In
the appearance and disposition Of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from .
peach which is rudely handled. The
1natron Is only dim shadow, faint echo
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
Tlage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain Is robbing the cheek
OF its freshness and the form Of ita
fairness.

When Taken Suddenly III
Here is a C0mmOn-Sense
Safeguard.

Big. strong man Is as helpless infant when
he is suddenly ILL., The sturdiest chap in town
usually loses his self-control and Is utterly
unable to regard his condition with the common
sense that characterizes his everyday actions
For example: He comes home tired eats
heavy dinner. and sits down to read and smoke
away quiet evening.
Suddenly he notices weight on his stomach:
then sharp pains around his heart, and a feel
ing OF sunocation. Thoughts of heart dis
ease rush over him. and In his agony be fears
the worst.
His trouble was acute indigestion brought on
by overlooking his tired stomach.
A couple OF Dyspepsia Tablets would have
given him instant relief-would have saved him
hours OF suffering.
Carry a package Of Rexsll Dyspepsia Tablets
In your vest pocket, or keep them In your room.
Take one after each heavy meal and Indigestion
will not bother you.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets remedy stomach trou-
bles by supplying the one element, the absence
of which in the gastric juices causes Indigestion
and dyspepsia, They aid the stomach to digest
food and to quickly convert II into rich red
blood and material necessary for overcoming
natural body waste.

LONDON, February 1O.-The cabinet

The knowledge that decisions of the
utmost importance in a political situa-
ton Of much gravity were to be dis.

presence Of an unusually large gathering

the crowd was more apparent than en-
