WHAT A LITTLE
WORRY WILL DO.
Distressing symptoms That Arise
from Overwork and Wony
and That Show the
Need Of a Tonic.

A little worry does great deal Of
harm. Overwork and worry give rise
TO nervousness, headaches, sleepless-
ness, lack of ambition, lack of interest
In your work, weak back, indigestion
and sometimes a complete breakdown
OF the nervous system. II these are
your symptoms, you need tonic. The
best way to tone up the nerves is
through the blood. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are direct nerve
tonic because they enrich and build up
the blood Under their tonic influence
nervousness and all the other evils of
worry and overwork quickly disappear.
They restore the digestion and enable
the body to take full advantage from
the food eaten.
Mrs. Jack Clark, whose address is
Box 3S, R. F. D. No. l, Medicine
Lodge, Kansas, says:
Through overwork I suffered from
general breakdown for about year.
was very nervous all OF the time and
had no strength at all. I had severe
headaches which nearly drove me
crazy. They often lasted for two or
three days. | was subject to dizzy
spells and blurring sensation over my
eyes. was also subject to hot flashes.
Any little excitement would bring on
these nervous and dizzy spells. / could
get but little rest and was tired out all of
the time. had no ambition to work
and was frequently forced to stay in bed
for day or so.
81 did not get any benefit until I
tried DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. They helped me 80 much that
I was soon able to sleep well and after
9 fair trial was entirely cured. Since
then | have given the pills to my
daughter, who was very weak and in
poor health, and they cured her also.
We feel that we cannot praise DR.. Will
lams' Pink Pills too highly"

MET IN DEs MONIES
Delegates From All over the State
Urge no Change in Present
Plan Of Taxation, But Urge

AS a result Of the meeting called for
Des Moines by Governor Carroll, rela-
tive to the creating of a state tax
commission, to act as a board of
equalization in all matters pertaining
to the assessment of taxes through
out the state, the consensus OF opin-
ion was that such an office should be
created. according TO Auditor A. P.
Meyer, and Supervisors D. A. Young
and r. D. Smith. of this county, who
were in attendance at the meeting
The convention was held pursuant

inviting certain county officials to
gather at Des Moines. in order that
the wishes OF the people might be as
certained in regard to taxes. Based
on such ideas as were expressed at
the meeting the state tax commission
expects to urge certain reforms at the
next session of the state legislature.
The sentiment of the meeting was
expressed in favor Of having county
assessors, or some county official who
would be able to oversee the taking
of the taxes by his deputies; and the
establishment of tax commission of
three members, to supervise the work
Of the county assessors. There was al
SO recommended uniform schedule
for the different classes of property !:
SO that town lots, under the same i'm
provements and advantages, would be
assessed with the same relative value
throughout. 1t was urged that justice
be preserved in having farm lands as.
sessed in proportion with town prop
erty.
The question of an income tax was
brought up. and while favored, was
not discussed thoroughly.
No radical changes in the present
system of taxes were agitated 1t was
the consensus OF opinion that the
present tax laws, as whole, were
fair to all tax payers ii Justly ant
equitably enforced.

The sprina Maid

In Dorothy Maynard's impersonation
of the saucy Princess Bozeno In "The
Spring Maid'' the close observer has
opportunity for study in comparing
the methods gained by study for the
stage in this country and in foreign
lands, for Miss Maynard is French by
birth and gained her training and
much of her experience in the Opera
Bouffe school so favored in France
and with the French National Opera
organization, from which also the now
| famous TetraZzini came, while all
around her in the long cast are Ameri-
cans trained in the methods of this
country.
Miss Maynard was born in Rouen,
/ France, and lived her earliest years
! in that city and in Paris. Then her
I parents came to America and settled
I in Chicago, but the daughters voice
was considered good enough to repay
a careful training and she was sent
back to Paris to study under the noted
Oscar Ramsen, a life long friend
I of her fathers. She studied another
! year with the celebrated Padullo in
( Paris and then Joined the French Ma
tional Opera organization which was
coming to America by way of the
South American capitals and through
Mexico. With this company she sang
small parts in La Boheme," "Trayi-
alta" Carmen" and IN Paderewski' S
Manru" and returned abroad with this
company to sing in the Riviera Opera
company which sing a repertoire of
the best known of French Opera
Bouffe favorites. Later she came to
America and appeared with the Grace
Won Studdiford company to sing the
opposite parts to the star in THE Red
Feather"
So much of the natural vivacity the
public has learned to expect from the
foreign trained and foreign born sing.
er is noticeable in Miss Maynard S
performances that an audience easily
traces a great similarity between her
methods and those of the other
French born players, Anna Held and
FRITZ Scheff leaving the question to
be decided as to how much the fasci
nation in a players appeal comes
from the birth and foreignness of the
artist and how much from the genera,
stage training and personality.
