WOMAN'S ILLS
MAKE UNHAPPY HOMES

There is no question but what the
ills of women conspire against do
nestle harmony. The husband cannot
understand these troubles and the
physician finds it hard to cure them;
therefore the overworked wife and
mother continues to drag around day
in and day out with headaches and
backache, fretful and nervous.
Such women should be guided by
the experience of women whose letters
We are continually publishing in this
paper. Many Of them declare that they
have been resorted to health, strength
and consequent happiness by Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after
doctors and all other medicines had
failed to help them. 1t viii surely pay
women who suffer from such ailments
to try 1t.

each pastor for at least seven days,
during which time specialists on In
tercession and Centenary; Steward
ship and Evangelism; Young People;

deavor to educate our members along
these respective lines, and aid the pas
tor in putting over the program Of the

service is what is wanted; and that CO.
operation is the most effective method
to secure these Thanks are due to
DR.. Hickman, our new pastor at Mays
vile, for opening the doors of his
church to US and to DR.. Carroll for the

Make the Man.


Chicago, H. < A wandering, jobless,
ragged "bum" yesterday; neat, i'm
maculate model of luxury with an in
come today, is. the story of the trans
figuration Of "Little Bill" Hayes.
The little "bo" of West Madison
street, became the Beau Brummel" Of
the white lights in few short hours
all because the Barbers' Supply Deal
ers' Association Of America wanted to
demonstrate how quickly face creams,
lotions, shampoo, toilet waters and
nail polish can change appearances.
Emissaries were sent out to rake
the flotsam of the "flop" houses for
the worst looking specimen of human
ity adrift they could find. They came
back with "Little Bill"
In the convention rooms Bill was
turned over to BARRIERS and manicur-
lists and while they performed their
magic, new clothes and shoes were
substituted for Bills rags.
Two hours later William Hayes
stepped into the bright lights of a
down town restaurant, the honored
banquet guest of men whose fortunes
are in cosmetics and perfume. Hayes
handled himself and his knife and fork
in manner which = well, Frank Ber-
ring, manager of the restaurant
thought Bill would be a promising
man to keep around the place.

Treaty Created a
CauldrOn of Hate
(By Associated Press

(By Associated Press.)
- London-General Ian Hamilton has
asked an interesting question. "Why
is it )" he inquired, shat the two last
successful wars, one against the Beers
in South Africa and the other against
the Germans, had such opposite re-
suits? How is it that the Boer war
put an end to the feuds, race-hatreds,
bankruptcies, disorders and bloodshed
which had paralyzed South African
progress for generation, while the
great war, on the contrary, has in
f1cted race-hatred, bankruptcy and
murder over the best part of the
world, from Ireland to the Near East,
and turned Central Europe into a
seething caudron of hate?"
And the general has answered his
own. question, which was propounded
at the recent unwilling Of war mem
orial. at is because our politicians
entirely ignored the ideals of those
to whom we have raised war MEM
orials by making a vindictive instead
of a generous peace" he said. \
"This< is not the place to set forth
what 1 think of the Versailles treaty."
the general continued. "All can say
is that in spite of it, the cause of
peace is not yet lost if only you will
fix your minds rather on the linten-
tions of those boys to whom this beau
tiful memorial has been raised, than
upon the acts finch have frustrated
those intentions"
