h1bits OF wheat at the biggest shows
In the United States; another farmer

ut L~ethbridge in 1912. Alberta and

What IS Woman 3

Il woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be q
picture of loneliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. It lies in health. In
the majority Of ase the basis of
health, and the aus of sickness, can
be traced to the action OF the bowels.
The headaches. the lassitude, the
Ballow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
it Is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
Quiremefk, q DR.. Caldwen's Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of women en-
dorse highly. among them Mrs. G. s.
Vance, Of 511 s. Ray St. New Castle,
Pa At times she had spells OF indi-
gestion so severe that she thought she
would die. Syrup Pepsin regulated her
stomach and bowels. and she attrib-
utes her excellent health today to this
remedy.

Syrup Pepsin, for thousands Of moth

for oral argument tomorrow, "a cases
that may require two weeks foy COM

will be a group testing the constitu'

case from Chicago, in which the negro
pugilist is charged with transporting
woman from Pittsburgh to Chicago.
Another will mark the end OF tne
spectacular fight Of Charles R. Heike,
former secretary of the American
Sugar Refining Company, to avoid an
Imprisonment sentence for alleged
conspiracy to defraud the government
in customs sugar weighing. He claims
immunity from prosecution by reason
of having testified at an antitrust in'

AFTERNOON.

Lille Orrahood, young girl Of this
city, who has for some time past beef
living with her father at Glendenning
a short distance out Of Charleston, was
yesterday brought to this city by Spe
cial, Officer Gibson and placed in the
county Jail.
She was TO have been given trial TO-
day on charge, it is understood, oI
being incvorrigible, but the case was
held over until tomorrow, pending the
arrival OF the girls father.
1t seems that the girls father and
mother have been divorced, and that
the court ordered the child placed In
the custody OF the mother.
For some time the girl had beer
in this city with her mother, but just
lately she. went to the home of her
father at Glendencing, where she was
staying when placed under arrest.
Attorneys have been secured by all
sides OF the case, and the Humane So
ciety is also interested in the case. Ii
seems to be the idea now to send the
girl, who is aged 16 years to the In
dustrlal School at Salem. This is op
posed by others. and when the case is
called tomorrow before Justice r. NJ.
Musgrcve there promises to be a very
warm legal battle, with some interest
