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

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
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. Pinkhan's Vegetable
Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of Women's system at
this trying period of her life. It
fnvigorates and strengthens the
female organism and builds up
the weakened nervous system.
1t has carried many women safely
through this crisis.

JUDGE ASKED TO
POSTPONE COURT
BACKWARD CROPS URGED
NO REPLY YET REC EIV f d
F Rom TELEGRAPHIC RE-
QUEST TO LANKFORD.

At the hour of gong to press to-
day no reply had been received from
a petition telegraphed Monday even
ing to Judge Eugene Lankford of De
Wallis Bluff, requesting him to post
pone for one week the July term of
the Faulkner circuit court, which is
TO meet here next Monday, July Is.
The fact that farmers are behind
with their work on account of a back
ward season was urged as a reason
for the postponement, the petition be-
ing signed by number Of local mer-
chants and some OF the attorneys
The request was telegraphed to
Judge Lankford Monday night, but
no answer had been received here
this afternoon.
Some opposition to the postpone
ment is being expressed, but no re-
monstrance has been sent to the
judge as yet. Those who object claim
fit will be an extra expense of be-
tween 1000 and $4,000 to the coun-
ty, on account of the fact that the ju-
rors and witnesses have all beer
summoned and it VIII be impossible
to notify them at this time should
the postponement be granted.

MAY CLOSE CLARY
SCHOOL, AT FORDYCF
1T WILL BE SOLD IN DECEM-
BER UNLESS REDEEMED,
SAYS ADVOCATE.

The Clary Training School at For
dyce, founded by Prof. J. d. Clary,
who was in charge of Hendrix acade-
my here for three years, is likely to
be closed on account of Indebtedness,
according to the Tri-County Advo-
cate. Referring to the school. the
Advocate says in an editorial in its
last issue:
A few weeks ago we published an
article concerning the closing of the
Clary Training School. So far as we
know nothing has been done to pre-
serve this institution and let it stand
as monument to the founder of the
school.
We are told that unless this prop
erty is redeemed it will, next Decem-
Der, become the private property of
citizen of Fordyce. AS business
proposition we envy this fnancier,
but as patriotic citizen and booster
of our town we deplore the day when
our people will allow this valuable
property to go into the hands of any
individual.
This building ought to be used for
a public library or club rooms. These
magnificent grounds ought to be
made into beautiful park or public
Fairgrounds. Or best of all, the
IClaly Training School should be con
tinued.
There are number of men in
Fordyce who owe much to this school,
who could easily pay the paltry 49,
900 debt and never miss it.
We suggest mass meeting for the
purpose of discussing the disposal of
the building and grounds of the
greatest school in Arkansas the
school that put Fordyce on the map.

AGED NEGRO WOMAN
FOUND NEARLY NAKED

With only few shreds of clothing
hanging about her and her body
scratched by briars, an aged negro
woman was taken into custody by
Sheriff j. S. Johnson early this
morning in a thicket north of the
Hendrix campus, where the woman
had spent the night, and was placed
in Jail for safe-keeping. Sheriff
Johnson says the woman's name is
Hobson and she formerly lived at
Pinnacle Springs. She is about 80
years of age and her mind is ap-
parently gone. Neighbors supplied
the woman with clothing and she will
be kept in jail until she can be ad-
mitted to the insane asylum.

SUMNER SESSION
TO CLOSE FRIDAY

The summer session of the Arkan-
sas State Normal, which opened June
10, will close next Friday afternoon.
Examinations will be held the last
two days of the session. The sum
mer term was expected to run six
weeks, but at the opening large ma
jority of both faculty and students
decided instead of having six weeks
Of five days a week work, they would
work six days week for five weeks,
thus doing the same amount of work
in shorter time
The attendance, while hardly so
large as was hoped for, was consid-
erably in excess of that of the 1911
summer session. This is regarded as
very favorable, as reports from Fay
etteville state the attendance at the
University summer session is much
smaller than that of last year.

On account of numerous COM

Of their hogs by some malady, the
cause of which has not yet been def
nitely ascertained. Mr.. Webb, who
examined the carcass of one of the
animals, is of the opinion that the
disease attacks their respiratory or

not cholera, the usual epidemic
among hogs, but no one seems to
know exactly what is the nature of
the disease.

tain whether the land could be con-

The log cabin Democrat., 1912-07-10

will use as much land as possible for
this product. Prof. Burr says about
400 acres is well adapted to be flood
ed with water, the only question be-
ing the supply of water. This, he
thinks, could probably be obtained by
damming Palarm creek The rice
plant has to be kept almost inundat-
ed in water until it is ready to reap,
and the field must be arranged so the
water can he drained off at that time
