WHY WOMEN GROW OLD EARLY
Through a Mistaken Idea Of Duty She
Permits Her Life to Become
Treadmill.

Why do some women grow old and
others keep the secret Of perpetual
youth? Here is one answer:
One reason why the average woman
wears out, grows plain before her hus-
band, is that. through a mistaken idea
OF duty, she lays out for herself at
the beginning OF her married life a
scheme or plan of duty and employ
ment for her time. every hour filled
with work, with rare and short periods
OF relaxation.
This she follows religiously for
years, feeling that she has done her
duty, because every household event
occurs regularly and on time, while
she soon becomes merely a machine,
a thing without life OF itself or voli-
ton. She settles into a rut, and goes
round and round ON the same track
everlastingly.
Can any woman keep brightness.
originality of thought or speech, or
even mere prettiness with such life?
! And without those things how can she
| keep her husband and growing chill
| dren full OF loving admiration, which
! is the strong chain by which she can
! bind them TO her? How bright and
Jolly the neighbor's wife seems when

OF your home are variety to her, and

The Democratic candidates for CON
gress are exceptionally strong this
year and they are putting up Il united
front of reform and progress. Mcguire
in the First, Lobeck in the Second,
Latta in the Third, Good in the Fourth,
Sutherland in the Fifth and Dean in
the Sixth are the men who are bearing
the standards and they are all men Of
known ability worthy of the support
of an intelligent people. With candi-
dates such as these the Democratic
party has much reason to congratulate
itself. Indications are strong that the
standpatters will gain control of the
republican party and that will mean
the continuation Of "tbe best tariff law
ever inacted", the policy of Aldrich
and Cannon, the interests against the
people. The regulars are in control
and are even SO strong as to defy eX.
president Roosevelt. How important
it is therefore for the people to uphold
these democratic candidates who are
bitterly opposed to the SYSTEM and all
it represents.
