ties who pooled their wool with the
State Federation last year and
sold their wool through the same
agent direct to the wool manufac-

universal satisfaction at the prices
received that two million pounds
is the prediction for the state pool
this year.
The state pool price was not
only an average of 5 cents higher
than that offered by local buyers,
but the West Virginia state price
was much better than that received

HEADACHE AND DIZZINESS

Headache is never disease. 1t is
always symptom. Applications, pow
ders and tablets that drug the head
ache into quietude are treating the
symptoms, not the disease, always a
useless proceeding and often harmful.
When headache is associated with
some dizziness it is usually the result
of nervous exhaustion and will con-
tinue as long as the person who is
overworked allows the debility to con
tinne. 1t rapidly disappears when rest
and the proper tonic is taken.
Nervous exhaustion, the cause of
such headaches and dizziness, results
from strain on the nerves with which
the rebuilding work of the blood is un.
able to keep pace. The best tonic for
such condition is DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. These pills build up the blood
and strengthen the nerves. With this
treatment, unless the overwork, worry,
or whatever has caused the nervous
breakdown, is persisted in, the head
aches, dizziness, nervousness and irrita-
bility that characterize neurasthenia
rapidly disappear.
The DIR. Williams Medicine Co,
Schenectady, N. Y, will send free on
request helpful little book .on. the
home treatment of nervous disorders.

able at any drug store. Price sixty
cents.-Adv.

IMPROVED CONDITIONS FOR

work and at the same time to check
the tendency of the recent nurse grad.
yates to leave the state for positions
where the work is more congenial and
the pay more adequate. One way to
bring about improved working condi-
tions is to set a limit on continuous
duty in the sick room, and it was de-
eided at recent meeting of the state
association TO endorse the twelve hour
duty, meaning that the days service
shall be CT twelve hours. This does not
mean, according 70 the statement Civ.
en- out by the nurses association, that
the nurse will leave the patient at the
end of twelve hour but that the nurse
shall give to the patient twelve hours
VI seINlIe Ut tue llLn6 WHtH the seTN-
ice is most necessary for the safety
and comfort of the patient and that
the other twelve hours belong to the
nurse. However, if the condition of
the patient seems to the nurse to de-
mand more than the twelve hours the
nurse will serve fourteen hours or any
number of hours "as a matter of most
obvious dusv" but not as a matter of
purchased services.
There viii be quite general sym
patty with the efforts of the nurses
association to make their working con-
ditions more agreeable sand less wear
ing; and the relief from continuous
service may serve well as one of the
ways to bring about those better con-
ditions. Just how TO aring about the
of hours Of service may
prove problem; but il would seem as
if the opinion OF the attending physi-
clan would be of value in determining
when and how long at a time the
nurse should be in constant attendance
on the patient. To leave it to each in
diyidual nurse might be to invite some
serious complications which might turn

,antage of the patient, Manifestly,
