From Forty-Five to Fifty Are Much Benefited
by

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. 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.

HAPTE Xxx.

Three days later. Daylight rode to
Berkeley In his red car. It was for the
last time. for Oh the morrow the big
machine passed into another's pos
session. It had been a strenuous three
days, for his smash had been the big
gest the panic had precipitated In Cal
ifornia. The papers had been filled
with il. and a great cry Of indignation
had gone up from the very men who
later found that Daylight had fully
protected their interests. 1t was these
facts coming slowly to light. that
gave rise to- the widely repeated
charge that Daylight had gone in
sane. 1t was the unanimous conviction
among business men that no sane
man could possibly behave In such
fashion. On the other hand. neither

face stood forth. Miss Mason Is go

mind your talking to her all you want,
you've got to use a different tone Of

you one other thing. This-all Is my
doing. She says Pm crazy. too"
Dede stepped forward where she
confronted the two men.

the only conclusion attainable was
that the wild financier from Alaska
had gone lunatic. And Daylight had
grinned and confirmed the suspicion
by refusing to see the reporter. He
halted the automobile before Dede's
door, and met her with his same rush
Ing tactics, enclosing her in his arms
before a word could be uttered.
I've done It," he announced.
You've seen the newspapers, Of
course. I'm plumb cleaned out, and
I've just called around to find out
what day you feel like starting for
Glen Ellen. It'll have to be soon, for
it's real expensive living in Oakland
these days. My board at the hote! is
only paid to the end of the week, and
| can't afford to stay On after that.
And beginning with tomorrow I've got
to use the street cars, and they sure
eat up the nickels."
He paused, and waited. and looked
at her. Indecision and trouble showed
on her face. Then the smile he knew
so we'll began to grow on her lips and
in her eyes, until she threw back her
head and laughed In the old fortnight
boyish way.
when are those men coming to
pack for me?" she asked.
And again she laughed and simu-
lated a vain attempt to escape his
bear-like arms.
Dear Elam." she whispered; dear
Elam." And of herself, for the first
time, she kissed him.
Now. I've got an idea," Daylight
said. Were running away from cit
les, and you have no kith nor kin, SO
1t don't seem exactly right that we
should start off by getting married In
a city. So here's the idea: I'll run
up to the ranch and get things In
shape around the house and give the
caretaker his walking-papers. You
follow me In a couple of days, coming
on the morning train. I'll have the
preacher fixed and waiting. And here's
/ another idea. You bring your riding
toys in q suit case. And u soon as
the ceremony's over. you can go to
the hotel and change Then out you
come. and you find me waiting with a
couple of horses. and Wen ride over
the landscape SO as you can see the
prettiest parts of the ranch the first
thing. And she's sure pretty. that
ranch. And new that It's settled. I'll
be waiting for you at the morning
train day after tomorrow"
Dede blushed as she spoke.
