When a girl becomes woman, when a
woman becomes mother, when a woman
passes through the changes of middle life,
are the three periods of life when health
and strength are most needed to with
stand the pain and distress often caused

At these critical times women are best
fortified by the use of DR. Perce's Fa-

Is TO force her to pay for the damage

CUHCI LATING LIBRARY
Is IN GROWING DEMAND

rhe circulating library feature of the
Nevada state library is one that Is
constantly growing. At the outset the
people over the state failed To realize
hat is was possible to have at hand
practically any book that was desired.
During recent months the outside dis
triets OF the state have been taking adj
vantage CT this circulating feature. the
result being that the two clerks In the
flction department are putting in long
hours looking after the peoples inter
est.
As there are some $4,000 books that
can be drawn against by the people of
the state the subjects covered are SO
numerous tha the librarians are hardly
ever stuck when a special subject is
called for.
Nearly every INT school in the
state has taken advantage of the law
which allows twelve books per MONTH.
rho state pays exprcssage one way on
all such circulations.
The outside cards are fast orowdins
the home readers and each month new
cards are filed. New books arc con-
stantly added so that the fiction Is up
TO the minute.
The one troubie at present - the
lack of stack room. Many books are
piled on tho floors and the new ones
will have to wait n place for shelving.
The proposed new library will undoubt-
eddy take care of the condition as the
demand for books. old and new. In
