Thousands upon thousands of women

Women's complaints often prove to be

to become diseased
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita.

one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..

health to the kidneys, proved to be lust
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions
Many send for sample bottle to see what

provides for the creation of a depart
ment OF education with a secretary in
the presidents cabinet The bill also
provides federal aid for education in
the states by an appropriation Of not

THE establishment of federal de-
partment of education does not mean

John c. Suarez, president of the Tow

Some of the purposes of this bill
are: The preparation of public school
teachers and equalizing educational
opportunities throughout the states.
THE bill does not interfere with
the management of private or paroch-

powers have secretary of education

method Of centralizing and improving
educational facilities"

msnts: A public school opportunity Of
not less than twenty-four weeks; COM
pulsory attendance at some school for
At least twenty-fOur weeks in the year
OF all children between and IA years
OF age; English the basic language in
struction in all schools.
The state superintendents Of educa-
tion would constitute an advisory
council to the secretary of education
at Washington and be called into
council by him once a year.
The petition was first circulated in
Louisiana last August. A. C. Carstens
