to walk. He had lifted up his feet
and been ridden around In automo-

had dry-rotted his muscles with alco-

He called for the drinks, and, still
dazed and bordering. held up his own
arm and looked at it as at some new
strange thing. He did not know this
arm. It certainly was not the arm he
had carried around with him all the
years. The old arm? Why. It would
have been play to turn down that

he encountered men he knew. It was
after an hour or SO of this that he
dropped into the bar of the Parthenon
for one last drink before going to din

pleasantly warmed by the alcohol, and
he was in the most genial and best Of
spirits. At the corner Of the bar sew
eval young men were up to the old
trick Of resting their elbows and at
tempting to force each others hands
down. One broad-shouldered young

From Forty-Five to Fifty Are Much Benefited
by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

The schange of life" is a most
critical period in a woman's ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near is not
without reason.
When her system is in a de-
ranged condition, she may be
predisposed to apoplexy, or con-
gestion of some organ. At this
time, also, cancers Az tumors
are more liable to form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread of
impending evil, timidity, sounds
in the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes,
Irregularities, constipation, vari-
able appetite, weakness and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in life when woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be needed in time.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of women's system at
this trying period of her life. It
invigorates and strengthens the
female organism and builds up
the weakened nervous system.
1t has carried many women safely
through this crisis.

this was Dede's own thought It was

he would go broke. He held up his
offending right arm. 1t wasn't the
same old arm. OF course she could
not love that arm and that body a.
she had loved the strong. clean arm
and body of years before. He didn't
like that arm and body himself. A
young whippersnapper had been able
to take liberties with it. It had gone
