Standing all day, or sitting in cramped
positions and often with wet feet, young
girls contract deranged conditions, and
before they are hardly aware of it they
develop headaches, backache, irregular
tiles, nervousness and bearing down
pains, all of which are symptoms of
woman ills. If every mother who has
a daughter suffering from such symp-
toms would profit by the experience Of
Mrs. Eicher and give Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound fair trial
she may expect the same happy result.

WOMEN AS JURORS

When jurors are superior to men
the conclusion reached by Minneapo-
lis judge after IN investigation into
the work of women jurors In various
parts of the country.
He has also found out that hand
some men do not affect women jurors
judgement as much as pretty women
do men jurors that women jurors are
not SO prcjudiccd against corporations
as men. and that women jurors almost
always ngree with each other but are
frequently lined up against their male
associates.
Judges in the Cleveland courts de-
clnrcd they had found women Jurors
more generally satisfactory In every
kind of cases than men.
1t will not be long until women are
serving ns Jurors IN every State and
the sooner the better.
Spellbinding among criminal lawyers
will continue to paint their clients
with wings and exhaust their vocnbu-
lnrics of sob stuT', but the women will
not be fooled.

TIE NEW YEAR

year is an rriitary division uf
time. made for the purpose Of enabling
us to keep track Of the passing even;s
Of history.
The beginning of new year. 'r
Nrw Years Day. is no more important
than any other day, but because
1t marks the beginning Of a new year
VIC are accustomed to peke 1t a special
day.
This is the time for reviewing the
past and making plans for that future
We cannot rlan iltelisgently for the
future unless we eep In mind what
has gone behind.
So. when We come te make our new
year. resolutions, we must, II we arc
to act intelligently. Hend some little
time I'm looking ta.I ward.
Whnt have We dcne during the past
year? And how have we done It?
What have been our successes Whit
cave been our failuret?
Why did We succeed: Why did We
fail?
These nre deep questions. but We
must meet them and angwer them hOa-
estly. to ourselves at least, II we arc
to make the new year better in anv
particular than the one Just ended.
All Of ns want success. but not all
Of us will he permitted to achieve 1t.
1t was a wise old philosopher who said
1t is no within the power Of man to
command success, Sempronius; but We
can do more, we can deserve it.
And during this coming new year
We can. all Of us. strive to deserve sue
cess in what ever II ia that we do
The effort to deserve success will
keep us no busy that we will have 1T
tie time for wondering II we are near
ing success. and II we do go at 1t in
the right way We can get 30 much en-
joymcnt out Of the effort to deserve
success that It won't matter very much
whether we achieve what is regarded
as success or not.
What Is success. anyway,
A great many people now believe
that SUCCESS conAsts not In what we
g:t out Of life as In what we put into
life. More and more people are bcliev-
ing this every year. and are spending
their lives on this basis.
And 1t Ia the people Of this kind
who make the work 20 forward. A-lai
People who live selfish lives whose
efforts are devoted soley to acquiring
for themselves without thought Of SER
vice to others. do not advance the
world or any good cause in It,
The success Of the selfish man. even
II he achieves what may be called sue
cess. is abitter thing. 1t gives no
pleasure to hIm or to anybody else IIc
is n man whom nobody loves or envics,
or strives to emulate.
The greatest success In the world
to lead clean. useful life. II man
does this he will be happy and con-
tented. no matter what his work or
his station.
And II We make resolution, on
the coming year New Years Day. to
lead n life OF this kind during the COM
ing year, there will he no need to wor-
ry about anything else. All the other
things will take care Of themselves.
