The "change 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 and 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
mquietude, 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 L. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of women's system at
this trying period of her life. 1t

female organism and builds up
the weakened nervous system.

A week of absolute rest is all that
is required, in the opinion OF his ply
sicians, to put Colonel Roosevelt in

gime which has been planned for him,
it is expected that he will be able to

While "a week has been set as the
period Of absolute rest, it was explain
ed that for a considerably longer time
Colonel Roosevelt must avoid hard
work and that it will be impossible fOC
him to attempt to make any speeches.
Several weeks will be required for the
complete healing OF the wound and the
knitting OF the fractured rib.

this will be possible.

Did you ever think of the difference
between washing and cleaning?
You can wash with any kind of soap
in any kind of water, hot or cold.
You can boil clothes and rub them on
a washboard until your back aches.
All that is washing
But it ism always cleaning.
Most soaps are just washing soaps.
They furnish little lather and let you
do the work.
FelS-Naptha is a cleaning soap.
1t works all by itself in cool or luke
warm water, saving all the trouble and dis
comfort of boiling and hot suds.
FelS-Naptha Soap cleans your clothes.
1t really reaches the dirt and diSSolves
it.
1t does this while the soaped clothes
are soaking in cool or lukewarm wafer,
while you are thinking of something else
or resting.
When Fels-Naptha Soap gets through
with them-thirty minutes or so is long Z
enough-yOu rub lightly, rinse the clothes
and they're cleaner, Sweeter and whittier
than you could get them by washing all
day in the Old-fashioned manner.
You'll find directions for using
Fels-Naptha printed on the back of the
red and green wrapper.
