Yroblem How to Feel Well During Middle Life Told by Three Women Who Learned from Experience. The Change of Life is a most critical period of a woman’s existence, and neglect of health at this time invites disease and pain. Women everywhere should remember that there is no’other remedy known to medicine that will so successfully carry women through this trying period as Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs. Read these letters: — Philadelphia, Pa.—“I started the Change of Life five years ago. I always had a headache and back- ache with bearing down pains and I would have heat flashes very bad at times with dizzy spells and nervous feelings. After taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound I feel like a new person and am in better health and no more troubled with the aches and pains I had before I took your won- derful remedy. I recommend it to my friends for I cannot praise it enough.”—Mrs. MARGARET GRASS- MAN, 759 N. Ringgold St., Philadelphia, Pa. 2 Beverly, Mass.—“I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, for nervousness dyspepsia, when 1 was going through the Change of Life. I found it very ilclpful and T have always spoken of it to other women who suffer as I did and have had them try it and they also have received T good results from it.”— Mrs. GEOrGE A. DUNBAR, v Q 17 Roundy St., Beverl - Erie, Pa.—“I was in poor health when the Change of Life started with me and I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, or I think I should not have got over it as easy as I did. Even now if I do not feel good I take the Compound and it restores me in a short time. I will praise your remedies to every woman for it may help them as it has me.” —Mrs. E. KissLing, 931 East 24th St., Erie, Pa. No other medicine has been so successful in relieving woman’s suffering as has Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. ‘Wemen may receive freeand helpful advice by writing the Lydia E.

New business has been quite secondary since the opening of the year. While the Pennsylvania Railroad has relaxed the embargo on export steel products at Pittsburgh so that shipments are made of anything for which vessel room has been provided, the New England embargo continues and the situation there gives manu- facture much concern. Many metal-working plants are operating only from day to day, and all are depleting their stocks, with the proh- ¢ ability in some cases that matters will | be worse before they are better. TFor ! the brass industries in Connecticut | the holding up of spelter and copper ! shipments at Western points makes | the outlook particularly bad. Some | iron foundries in New England are on the verge of a shutdown. Situation of Steel. While Central Western shops which work up rolled products are getting | more steel because parts of New ¥Eng- |1and can get none, there is still a | limitation of output at a number of | | plants because the mills cannot sup- | | ply all the raw material wanted. Act- | | ual shutdowns are few, but the lack | of plates has caused intermittent | operation in a Our Chicago report cites the case | {of an implement company which | | planned to produce 24,000 machincs | but has had to cut the number to | 18,000 because sufficient material could not be bought. Instances like this are an offset to all that is said about high prices curtailing con- sumption. Restrict Building Work. In structural lines particularly, steel at $12 to $15 a ton more than was paid in the spring of 1915 may be expected to restrict building opera- tions in the coming season. Yet in December the fabricating companies booked orders representing 121 per cent. of a month’s capacity. Manu- facturing additions in the steel and munitions industries count for much new structural work; in ordinary which where there is cowplaint that enough is coming wp. Steel companies higher prices to hold back for the second half; but the that from the advance to 1.85c. burgh, only recently made one large | producer has now gone to 1.20¢. on bars and shapes for third and fourth quarter delive; For vessel plates | for that delivery 2c. is asked. Shipyards Taken Contracts. Lake shipyards have taken on which deliveries cannot be made before 1917. Four Norwegian boats have just been placed with the | leading Lake builder and two vessels with a Pacific coast vard. Other | work is in sight, including two large vessels for the Cuban ore trade. No end can be seen to the full operation | of all shipyards. Railroads are giving out car orders which recently were withheld because prices were considered too high. 7he | Pennsylvania Railroad has just or- dered 5000 of the cars it once with- drew and in all about 12,000 cars are now actively before the market. Freight Rate Staggering. Late rail sales include 30,000 tons' to the St. Paul, 6000 tons to the Pittsburgh & Lark Erie and 4000 tons to India, with 2000 tons for Portu- guese East Africa practically closed. A new inquiry for Russia is for 60,000 tons, but a $60 freight rate is stag- gering. In war steel bars a 30,000-ton sale for delivery after July has been made | to the Allies’ agents. On shrapnel bars such contracts can still be put through at 3c. On large steel stock 8%c. and higher is asked. For France about 500,000 tons will be taken at suitable prices for deliveries running into next year. The pig-iron market has been less active, but producers’ policy is evi- dently based on the expectation of further advances. At Buffalo a sale of 70,000 tons of hot metal for the second half has been made. Prices are generally strong at the same time Buffalo iron has been sold below $13 at furnace and competition from that quarter has been felt in various dis- | tricts. not may he guoting business fact is Pitts- con- | MISS GILDER DEAD. Redding, Jan. 21.—The friends here of Miss Jeanette Gilder learned yes- terday of her sudden death at her home in New York. Miss Gilder was a regular week-end visitor to her sum- mer home here and was a prominent member of the local literary colony. Miss Gilder and Mark Twain were warm personal friends and were much together at social functions hera GREECE LIFTS DUTY.

Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. 21.—The average ‘‘hired girl” does not care for technical training in household duties and the average housewife employer could not afford to the higher wages due skilled workers, according to a report made here today to the National society for the Promotion of Industrial Education by Bess M. Rowe of the Agricultural Division of the University of Minnesota. The report was one of the results of the “Minne- apolis Survey” which subject engaged the exclusive attention of the con- vention this morning. The report on homeworkers said the investigation was conducted by under- graduates of the university belonging to the Phi Upsilon Omicron sorority, a professional home economics —so- ciety. Three tvpes of homes were visited, those where the work was done by paid employes, those where members of the family performed the tasks but in surroundings of com- fort and even luxury, and those where the house-mother struggled with problems of bare existence. IZach tvpe was examined in an effort to deter- | mine whether short courses in domes- tic science would be welcome. After disposing of the “hired girl” question the report id of the second type of home that “most home work- ers who are performing their own daily tasks have - gained whatever technical knowledge they possess from their own experiences or from the ex- mothers and their friends.” Tt was said that “‘while fif- ty-one such housekeepers expressed a desire for a prac teacher, only all of technical training.” The invest gators thought this “emphasized that the woman with training but lacking as actual experience in housework finds it difficult to gain the confidence of the practicing housekeeper. The student investigators encoun- tered difficulty in obtaining informa- tion from poverty-stricken homes. Of the poorest section of Minneapolis the report said “it would be hopeless to attempt courses such as might be given in other parts of the city was pointed out that the mothers i many cases “do day work and have * time nor strength to take courses,” although some 5 a desire that these be given for their children. Groups for house- hold training already organized fo sial settlements were held out as providing a wedge into this section of the general problem. In its general conclusion the report | stated, in part: “Only one out of every five workers have had training in i the household arts except what the | got ‘on the condition which would not be tolerated in any other with an equal amount of and technical requirements. he great average Ame; an home makes the largest demand for train- ing; the type of home in which the work is done by the home-maker herself.” home any of | job." a profession ENUFF RAIN Nature is responsible for that mellow taste When you’re handing out medals— A plain, plum- colored pack- age but— real —you’ll want to pin an extra big one on Lotta Sun and Enuff Rain who helped Mother Nature make the tobacco that’s in Perfections.
