WOMAN'S BEST
FRIEND.

Nature has provided women with ex-
tremely delicate organs, so sensitive
that they become disordered for the
slightest causes, and the least disturb
ance is likely to prove serious:
1t is therefore every woman's highest
duty to take care of these organs. At
the slightest sign of any of those dis
orders, known generally as Female
Troubles, they should be stopped imme-
diately before great pain and probably
permanent injuries result.
The most splendid remedy for all dis
eases of women is SQUAW NERVA-
TUM, the simple, harmless vegetable
remedy, that contains none of the chem
icals or harmful ingredients. 1t cures
quickly, painlessly and thoroughly.
Every woman should demand the
right to health and happiness that
SQUAW NERVATUM brings. So in or
der to put the first bottle of this great
medicine within the reach of all, we
make on the coupon below an unusually
GENEROUS OFFER:

ANATOL|A CROP IS
GATHERED DESPITE
A LABOR SHORTAGE

CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. S.-The
crops in Anatolia have been success
fully harvested, notwithstanding the
shortage of farm help. The yield is
reported a good average crop every
where. Anatolia is the granary of
Turqey, and the report that its har-
vest is under cover assures the cap
ital its food supply for the winter
months. The chief difficulties in the
provisioning of the city are connected
with transportation. The Anatolian
Railway Company had been compelled
even before the war to reduce it's SER
vice somewhat, and military demands
have still further reduced the avail
able freight capacity.
The city prefecture has, however,
succeeded in reaching an agreement
with the war department by which
regular grain shipments from Anatolia
will be made. 1t is also hoped to Sc
cure some foreign grain in the near
future, and there are no fears that a
sufficient supply of grain will not be

A more serious question has been
that of securing enough petroleum. Ell
eotric lighting was introduced in Con-
s,antinople only two years ago, and
very few houses have it Vast guam
titles of petroleum are used. In norm
al times Russia, Rumania and Amer
lea were the main sources of supply.
Today the only source available is the
Rumanian "Steaua Romano" and sup
plies from this company have recently
been most irregular and small The
Black Sea between the Rumanian and
Turkish coasts is sharply watched by
Russian torpedo boat destroyers, and
only small quantities of oil have come
through in lighters. The needs of the
army have also compelled the expro-
rriation of most of the oil that has
been stored up, and Rumania has now
prohibited the export of oil.
Rich deposits of coal will make 1t
possible to overcome the shortage IL
this fuel. With the assistance of Ger
man engineers, new mines have been
recently opened up, and the coal Sc
cured is declared to be but little in
ferior to Cardiff coal.
Sugar, coffee, tea and other articles
have risen considerably in price, but it
is asserted that there is no chance OF
a real want of anything in CONSTANT
nople.

HOLDING GARDEN TO MARK
Constant Attention to What Might Be
Considered Trlfles viii Be
Found Imperative.

One of the worlds greatest artists,
Michel Angelo, said perfection Is
made up of trif1es. The rules Of art,
so far as rules apply, bear the same
relation to every earthly activity,
whether it be sculpture or gardens.
Therefore, the perfect garden Is one
where the planter has given, at some
time, attention to each little matter Of
detail to, see that it harmonizes with
the garden as whole. 1t may not be
possible to deal with all at once, yet
in time the grand total may be COW
cred and the sum of the little things
will constitute perfection. In order to
keep garden up to a high standard
it is not necessary to make many or
marked changes at once, but deal with
each little problem as it arises If a
plant dies, put in another at once. Do
not wait for bigger job with sew
eral Keep substitute plants always
ready.

Efficient City Planning.

1t must not be understood that the
artistic effect has always been the
only aim in city-planning schemes Of
the old regime. There were excep-
tons, the most remarkable one being
the case of Berlin in the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries, when the
Prussian rulers practiced In very
efficient and far-sighted manner city
planning on an entirely social basis,
working with powerful hands for the
rapid opening and building up of wide
and healthful suburban areas, with
out neglecting the beauty of the cen
trail district
1t is largely due to this powerful
and advanced city planning that Ber-
lin, from a little medieval town Of
5000 people, became one of the lead
ing capitals of Europe, with 100000
people at the beginning of the French
revolution. This social kind of city
planning, however, was the exception,
and, with the entire change Of the
political situation caused by the
French revolution, the social tenden-
cies in city planning suffered the same
decline as artistic city planning all
over Europe.

NEEDS DIRECTION OF EXPERT
Advice Given by New York Times Ia
Worth Consideration by Authorl.
ties of Other Cities.

Discussing the advisability Of the
formation of body for the exclusive
purpose of developing plans for the i'm
provement of the city the New York
Times says:
"The city-planning commission
should have In it's permanent employ
a well-paid executive officer, who
should be an expert in city planning
and city maintenance, familiar not
only with domestic affairs, but thor
oughly acquainted with all the various
phases of European municipal under
takings, so that he may avoid as much
as possible experimental work at the
public expense. Such an expert must
be able to treat the subject freely on
its merit He should have no proper
ty or other interests in the city liable
to be affected, and he should have no
personal considerations that might
bend the plan to his own advantage,
as is likely to be the case Of plan
formulated by those put in office by
local politicians.
THE work Of replanning city like
New York involves SO many and such
intricate features that it is undesir-
able to intrust it exclusively to local
municipal engineers and architects,
for however much experience they
may have in their own lines they will
be lacking in the special knowledge
that is necessary to make a success
of city planning"
