STATE CAPITOL
 NEWS AND NOTES
Attorney General Says Majority oiLegisIators Are Satisfied
 With Amendment l3.
LIST FOR COMPARES
Rhode Island Pays Only si Per Day With no Time Limit
 on Session.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
 Little Rock-Attorney General II. l.. Norwood recently sent out let ter to members of the next General Assembly, calling attention 70 the adoption of the 6O-day session amend ment. and advising them how their constituents may proceed to obtain local legislation without recourse to the legislature Most of the liegisla- tors replied, expressing their appprov- al of the amendment. but some declar- ed that 60 days is not sufficient length of time.
 In looking over the time and per diem of the legislature in other states, Mir. Norwood found that the legisla. lures of most states are required to transact their business in 60 days or less, and the pay is generally less. Few of these states have the initiative and referendum.
 With but few exceptions the mem bers are of the opinion that the Gen eral Assembly can transact all the business within the so days" said Mir. Norwood, "and they think that the recently adopted amendment linn iting the session will save the state large sum of money beiennially and that the legislation in general will be more satisfactory. A very small per cent of the members do not think the 60 days Is a sufficient length of time. a smaller per cent think that the per diem is too small in view of the limi- tation as to time.
 Tt is my opinion that the members who compose the General Assembly of Arkansas are just as capable as the members of general assemblies of the other states, and can transact as much business in the same length of time and for at least the average compensa- tion paid by other states. and for this reason I could not agree that the com pensation is too small or the time too limited as fixed by Amendment No. l3"
 Mr Norwood then gave a summary of the constitutional provisions of a flHTiDtT OI Ot0tI SbdicS dllGCllhS lut time limit of legislative sessions and the per diem of members. as follows; 'In Alabama the members of the General Assembly receive s4 per day and the session is limited to 70 days.
 ''In Florida the sessions are 50 days, with q per diem of s6 per day.
 Kentucky. North Dakota and South Dakota, GO days. at s per day.
 "Wyoming, 40 days. at & per day.
 "Delaware s for the first co days and no compensation if they remain longer in session. In the above states the sessions cannot be extended.
 "California. $S for the first GO days
 Missouri $5 per day for the first 70 days and st after that.
 Nebraska S per day for co days at one sitting and shall not receive pay for more than 100 days during the two years time.
 Michigan, g. for every day actual " in attendance or absent on account of sickness for the first 40 days and nothing thereafter.
 "oklahoma. $6 for Go days and $. thereafter.

The "change of life" is q most critical period in q Woman's ex- istence, and the anxiety felt by women as it draws near is not without reason.
 When her system is in 8 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 tho 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 inyigorates and strengthens the female organism and builds up the weakened nervous system. It has carried many women safely through this crisis.
