one day of the wonderful cures made
by Lydia T. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound and decided to try it,
and it has made me well woman.
My neighbors and friends declare it
had worked a miracle for me. Lydia
f. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is
worth its weight in gold for women
during this period of life. If it will
help others you may publish my
letter. Mrs. NATHAN B. Creation,
81 N. Main Street, Natick, Mass.
The Change of Life is the most criti-
cal period of a woman's existence.
Women everywhere should remember
that there is no other remedy known
to medicine that will so successfully
carry women through this trying
period as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound.
If you would like special advice
about your case write a cOnfiden-
tial letter to Mrs. Pinkham, mt
Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free,
and always helpful.

The Booklovers contest of The Bee was
started in the morning issue Of Wednesday,
April 6, and was continued for seventy-five
days. a picture appearing each day. The
last picture was printed in this paper on

After the last illustration was published
the contestants were given until o'clock
on the evening OF July in which to send
in their answers. The force Of clerks be-
gan the checking of the answers the next
week.

tanning a puzzle picture 10 the Omaha Ma

its sessions the chairman OF this body and
the contest editor took the envelopes with
the pictures from the vault and laid them
before the board These were examined
and found correct.
Doane Powell was the artist who drew
the illustrations for the puzzles. He made
several of the puzzles in one day. the sug-
gestions for the same being given TO him
by the contest editor He did not know
what the titles were. No one but the con-
test editor knew the official names.

ing the days Of the game. Several hundred
people visited the business office OF The
Bee during the closing days of the game
in order to get extra coupons. and the
girls in charge OF the sale OF these pic
lures were kept busy until after regular

MANY "PERNlCIOUS" DANCES
Committee Reports on Condi-
tions in City's Halls.

The report on dance halls prepared hy
the Committee on Amusements and Re-
sources Of Working Girls, of which Mrs.
Charles Henry Israels is chairman, is out.
and reveals conditions much more serious
than are generally supposed TO exist-con-
ditions which. In the words Of the report,
challenge the immediate consideration OF
all who are interested IN the welfare Of
young men and women
Many of the dances common In these
halls-such as the SLOW Rag" Bunny
Bug" Turkey Trot'' Walk Back" and
Lovers Two-step"-are modified varieties,
the investigators found. OF dance which
had its origin In the lowest stratum OF
society. This dance has spread SO that
now II is seen "at all but the most select
dances'-of course in its modified forms;
but II does not, the report asserts, In the
progress OF modification lose one whit OF
its disreputable identity and demoralizing
influence"
The unsuspecting are taught the milder
forms Of the dance, and 1t is argued
that "as long as they dance the moderated
variety II won't hurt them any," Mrs.
Israels's committee holds this argument
TO be entirely specious. IT is quite as per-
nicious in it's milder forms as in the other.
The report urges the danger to girls In
the prevalence OF these dances, and asks
the cooperation of the public 'in the
elimination Of this most pernicious in
fluence In our civil life"
