large cities, one is surprised to find
such large portion of the inmates
women, and still further surprised to
find that so many Of the women are
there to undergo operations for fe-

Before submitting to a surgical OPP

lifetime OF impaired usefulness,
every woman should try Lydia e.

men who have been restored to
health after having been told that a
surgical operation was their only
chance of recovery.

part in John G. Fishers production,

Grand Opera House, Wednesday

action of a musical piece. An en-
deavor has been made to obtain
young women with pretty faces.
graceful figures, good voices and
nlmble limbs and at the same time
to select those who would best fit
the types intended by the authors Of
the story. The result is said TO be
satisfactory in the extreme, and
when the production comes here it
will be found to obtain brand new
faces and a collection of youthful
femininity which has not lost its
playful enthusiasm The chorus has
been trained by r. H. Burnside, the
famous stage director Of the New
York Hippodrome, Robert Hood Bow

in the South and West.
The plan started by DIR. Knapp Of
having farm efficiency man en-
ployed at public expense for each
county, is beginning to spread
throughout the North as we'll as
through the South. These men, as ad-
visers of credit society committees can
assist many farmers who are now
making very small yields to enter up
on their business with a new farm
plan, farm machinery, improved
seeds, and new inspiration that will
enable them to make large profits on
modest loans.
A Great Organization.
The assistant secretary of agrlcul-
ture remarked: while there are
many cooperative organizations
among the farming classes today, the
greatest example in the world of CO.
operation among farmers is the organ
ization Of growers Of lemons and or
anges now cooperating In the pack
ing and marketing of 100000, 900 worth
of fruit annually. In seven years they
have sold about 9O,OOO,OO0 worth Of
fruit and their losses from collections
have been less than $4,000 or not 1-15O
part Of per cent. Had the fruit gone
to commission men II probably would
not have brought s60,0O0,000 and the
losses and bad debts would have been
tens Of thousands II not hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars.
ION the other hand, the fruit has
been so well packed, has been dellv-
cred to customers (mainly in the east
ern United states) in such fine condi-
tlon, so free from decay, and Of such
superior quality that ! dare say the
