NAPOLEON'S IDEAL WOMAN

The great Napoleon, in response to
a question once asked by lady, re-
piled MY ideal woman is not the
beautiful society belle or the butter
fly Of fashion, but the matron who
reaches middle age in complete pre-
servation of health, with stalwart
children by her side"
There arc great many women OF
middle age who owe their good health
to Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, that famous medicine for
female ills. For almost fifty years this
wonderful medicine, compounded of
roots and herbs, has been restoring
suffering women to health.

of every international question is
possible, that a warless world can
really be achieved. Our witness must
be unmistakable that force IS not
the final arbiter among the nations,
but that justice, reason and good
will can control their life as well az
the life of individual men: To con-
tinue to point to the mailed fist as
our ultimate reliance and TO carry or
program of mutual distrust and
fear, is to undermine the very foun-
dation of our Christian faith.
LET there be throughout the
church fire of holy Indignation not
only against war but also against the
