 INTEREST TO WOMEN

 Had Nervous Spells
 Horatio, Ark. .-"I had nervous spells and awful bad feelings. My right side and my back hurt me all the time and I had been going down in health for six or seven years. For three years had not been able to do my work without help. I weighed only 95 pounds when my husbands mother persuaded me to take Lydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound. Now I heartily recommend 1t to all suffering women, as l have gained weight and health. I can do all my work, anything want to do. o."-Mrs. JIM REARICK, Horatio, Arkansas.

 cere in His SuppIication.

 To which the trembling darky re- piled: "Ah suh, An just come in to pray, suh."
 Whereupon the pastor said: If that is the purpose of this visit here, then you just get down and pray"

LINKING UP STATE SYSTEMS
quirements of Federal-Aid Legislation.

(Prepared by the United States Department
 of Agrcuture)
 A recent meeting of New England state highway officials and engineers of the bureau of public roads of the United States Department of Agricul- ture, marks an important point in tn development of highways in this cOun try. This is the first meeting ever helt between officials empowered to act, fol the purpose of laying out system oi highways to serve an area larger than a single state. It is the first of SC ries of similar meetings which will be held between the federal officials and highway authorities of various groups of states, the object of which will be the solution of the problem for the whole country.
 This progressive step, long wished for by all users of the highways, can be attributed to the requirements of federal-aid legislation. It is required that all federal aid be spent on con nected system of highways designed to serve the needs of the whole coun- try. Tentative systems have been sub mitted by all except eight states, and now the series of meetings is being held to connect and coordinate the proposed state systems.
 The bureau of public roads intends to push this work as rapidly as pos sible, so as to lay efore the people the plans for what will be by far the greatest highway system in the world. At present only roads certain to be on the system are heinz approved for
