Forty-Fwe to Fifty Are Much Benefited

The achange Of life " Is a most
critical period in a womans ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near Is not
without reason.
When her system Is In q 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 sufocation, 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.
Ehas carried many women safely
through this crisis.

MRS HARVEY ]. RUTHERFORD

Thursday afternoon 1T 1920
o'clock Mrs. Harvey J. Rutherford
passed away at the hospital IN Salt
Lake when she had been taken for
an operation. The news Of this
young mothers death has cast a
sorrow across the hearts Of nose
who have known her and respected
her since childhood.
Mrs. Rutherford was known to
the older residents Of Elko as
Miss Mamie Yates. She was born
on June 27, 1876. in Elko and
nearly her whole life was passed
here. She attended the public
school and high schools here and
was one of the alumni of the later.
On October IL, 1900, she
married Mr.. Harvey ]. Ruther-
ford. The fruits Of that union
were four boys. ranging in age
from eleven years to eleven
months
Although devoted to her home
and family, she found time TO
work in other spheres. She held
the office of Most Excellent Chief
in Ruby Temple. Pythian Sisters,
member Of the Baptist church and
was secretary If the Ladies
Baptist Mission Circle. In these
positions, as in her home, she
measured up to the true standard
Of ~womandood.
An aged mother, a loving
husband, four small children, two
sisters and a brother live to mourn
her loss.
No word we can pen will bring
the sympathy and consolation they
need so much. They have the
consolation Of Knowing that when
the call came she was ready 60
meet her Maker on the shores of
the Great Beyond. May she
sweetly sleep.
The remains will arrive over the
Western Pacific tonight and the
funeral will be held Sunday after
noon at 3 o'clock. The place will
be announced tomorrow.
