Problem
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 cam* women through this trying period as
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from
native roots and herbs. Read these letters:
HIII i 11 LililiXLl IHIIIII Philadelphia, Pa.—"l started the Change of Life
j | five years ago. I always had a headache and baek
ache with bearing down pains and I would have
heat flashes very bad at tin-.es with dizzy spells and

j! rjin vegetable Compound I feel like a new person and
I am tetter health and no more troubled with
the aches and pains I had before I took your won

of 239 South street, announce the

the crush that the big plate glass front
of one of the show windows was shat
tered to bits and the patient and genial
officer in charge of the incoming bar
gain-hunters, Lyman Dutton. had his
hands full enough. Anil good old
"Merky" Tate, with his all-persuasive
voice, permitted of no loafing on the
job. Alas, however, a late news flash
reports that "Merky" has been de
moted and is now "measuring'' goods.
He was ably supported this morning
by the most expansive smile in the
store, signifying the presence of John
Sweeney, who "floorwa v lked" with the
experience and "savoir faire" of an
old-timer.
The money still rolls in at the same
rapid pace, closely rivaling the splen
did average of three and one-half dol
lars a minute which prevailed yester
day. A friendly rivalry between the
different departments keeps the ex- j
citement of the sales at a high pitch, \
and all the salesladies seem to be In .
good spirits and rare selling form. The '
demand for more contributions is be- ,
ing partially met, but there must be
a big increase to-day and to-night if
the supply is to meet the demand on
the last day to-morrow. A clean sweep
is looked for, and that, too. in spite
of the fact that many cash contri
butions have been coming in from
t,hose who want to help the cause
along and yet do not feel like making
any purchases. The treasurer, Mrs.
Meade Detweiler. announced this
morning that there is no embargo on
cash contributions and that the com
mittee has no objections to having the
few hundred dollars that have already
been given augmented.
Three Kittens for Sale
Anybody want to buy three of the
sweetest little kittens in the city?
They were contributed to-day by the
little son of ex-Mayor John K. Royal
with the request that they be given
the best of care, so they must be
valuable and ought to bring a good
price. The baby that was left under
the counter yesterday morning while
the mother "rummaged" was. fortu
nately, not sold in the excitement of
the moment, but it was not observed
among those present this morning.
The gift of Mrs. Herman Astrlch yes
terday of a small runabout which sold
for SIOO was duplicated to-day by
Lee Goldsmith's presentation of an
electric runabout, for the possession
of which it is expected competition
will be keen. Four wagons and a
player piano, to say nothing of an or
gan, which came from 1506 Regina
street, and a regular piano that Frank
O. Horting presented, were additional
big gifts that are sure to boost the
receipts tremendously.
Members of the police force have
been doing yeoman service, not only in '
handling the crowds, but also in aiding
materially in the sales. And thev seem
to be enjoying themselves. Captain
Thompson, l„yman Dutton. George
Wiesman, M. Kepford, Herman Kautz.
John Hess and a number of others
have taken turns maintaining the little
order that is needed, and all express
pleasure at the good humor of the
thousands that have flocked In and out
of the store.
The army of salesladies is becoming
more efficient all the time under the
capable general management of Mrs.
Olmsted, Miss Anne McCormick and
Miss Hiester. All are doing a splendid
work and all share equally in the
credit which, expressed and unex
pressed, is theirs. Although there
have been a number of relays, there
are many who have worked through j
every hour of the sale and are deter- 1
mined to continue until exhaustion
overcomes them or the house is sold
out. It is a revelation in endurance. I
It Is a safe estimate that the total j
sales for the two days, up to noon to
day. are well over three thousand
dollars. There must be a restocking
of men's clothing and women's and i
children's hats, however, if the maxi
mum is to be reached.
Here are some of the force that is
making a record for this and other
cities in the matter of rummage sales
that will take some tall hustling oiv a
future occasion to duplicate:
