The CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or UNI
derstands how to properly care for her.
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment ats usD
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for tbs
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing IS
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist il going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, q most valuable tonic and
inyigorator of the female organism.

FINAL DECISION
 REACHED TONIGHT
WHETHER THERE WILL BE RAG ING AT OAK LAWN TO DRAW
 INCREASED PATRONAGE.
Anyone Interested in the Movement Invited to Attend Meeting at the Eastman Hotel Tonight.

The final decision as to whether or not thele shal be a race meeting undertaken for this city this spring, as q medium of enhancing the busi ness of the resort, will be determined this evening at a meeting to be held at the Eastman Hotel, to which ev- cry citizen who is interested in the subject is invited to attend.
 There is no invitation affair about the meeting tonight. It was neces- sary at the first meeting to test out the interest in the matter, because unless it had been generally accept ed as a good thing for the city there, no subsequent meetings would have been worth while.
 In view of the expressions given at that meeting, this second one is to be held tonight, and at that time every detail will be given over by the com mittee selected to attend to this mat ter.
 1t will be necessary to take the preliminary steps towards organiza- tion tonight if the meeting is to be taken up for next March. Of course, the final organization will take place after the company has been made up.
 There was a great deal of interest taken in the announcement of the proposed race meeting yesterday. AL most universally the business men thought it would prove helpful and that at least it would be the step ping stone to a most successful meet ing next year. No one seemed to doubt the fact that the race meeting would give the city wide advertising everywhere.
 Of course, the question of the law in relation to bookmaking was not gone into in detail The association or organization will not recognize that feature of the game It requires so much money in purses every day to hold the races, and the associa- ton will make every endeavor to get that sum from the gate receipts and the concessions, and there will be some subscriptions of voluntary na- ture that will help take care of the axDense of the meeting

WOMEN WORKERS
 SEE PRESIDENT
PLEAD WITH EXECUTIVE IN THE CAUSE OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE
 IN UNITED STATES.
Delegation Leaves Discouraged and Disappointed Over Presidents De Csion in Matter

Washington Feb 2.-Women work CTS who toll daily in the mills, sweat shops and factories of the nation pleaded with President Wilson today for his assistance to the cause of wo- man suffrage. The president regret fully told them, as he did a delega- tion last December, that he could not urge anything on congress which had not received the organic considera- tion of the demoratic party.
 Today's demonstration-no the brass band, the street procession. the colored pennants and battle flags of the cause, but the tale of hardship of the struggle to live on low wages of the sanitarioums of those sickened at their work and the heart breaking tragedies of poverty-affected the president deeply.
 As the delegation left the execu- tive offices discouraged and disap- pointed because they obtained no positive aid, they did not know that the president himself was depressed, perhaps even more than they as he went to luncheon with his family. He told his friends afterwards he wished he could help but saw no way to do it.
 There is every reason to believe, however. that the day gave added stimulus to the presidents desire for early legislation on social justice and industrial reform mentioned in his first annual message.

 "Oh, my little babies" was the on- " comment Mrs. Holland made to Dr. John S. Wood, who was first to give her medical attention. She in. quired as to wehther she would die Her concern was not for herself though but for the children that would be left if she should die.
 Terry made no comment on the situation 'I am getting pretty sick" is about all he said, and that to Dr. Wood when he called to where the wounded man lay in the woods. Ter, ry suffered from the loss of much blood, but he probably would not have recovered under any conditions pr.
