I beg to call your at tention to a habit which is in vogue here and in other cities, smoking in rtAtaurants and other places where edibles are consund and sold. I am a smoker myself, vet I find it extreme ly disagreeable "o have the fumes from cigars, pipes and cigarettes blending with ;uy meals. I had my breakfast entirely trolled by cigarette snoke this morn'nis and I have many times had ladies remark the same hfs happened to them . We have ordinances against smok ing on street car. in public offices end various other places where the smoke can be dlsptired by the outside air, yet is looked upon as a nuisance. How much worse is it when In a closed room where there Is no chance for It to escape and where it per meates the atmosphere to the disgust even of some smokers. How much more disagreeable it must be to lad es and non-smokers. I am not blaming the different proprietors of einrants. as a rule made by any one f them against smoking and disregarded by others would Drobably cause loss of trade. but I cannot make a ruling that such a thing as chewirg and smoking to bacco should be prohibited in places where edibles are sold or consumed. Kxpectorating in public places anu on the sidewalks ii prohibited. Why cot Include smoking in restaurants sna grills except In cpeclally set aside rooms? I cannot, see any hardship In ir ordinance of this kind. It sure 1 .- is no better lo wait until one leaves the restaurant than It is to sit In a theater or church f r one to two hour without the craving for a smoke overpowering one's respect for the rights of others and common polite ness. One sees men finish their meals and at once, without regard to the feelings of oth-r -ccupants of tne piace take out their pipe, cigar and even cigarettes md proceed to make the air redolent with tne fumes ! tobacco. Wny is i permitted. ? Is there any way to get this mat t? taken up? Why do you suppose It has never been moc ted by any of the health officials? Tie seem to be very keen after little ir fractions against ilfceir rules, but o far have only seen fit to go after ths ,-ubtic conveyances.

" I was passing: through the Change of Life and had puns in my back and side and was so weak I could hardly do my housework. I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vege table Compound and it haa done me a lot of good. I will re commend your med icine to my friends and give you permis sion to publish my testimonial" Mrs. Lawrence Mar tin, 12 King SL, Westbrook, Maine. Mans ton, Wis. "At the Change of Life I suffered with pains in my back and loins until I could not stand. I also had night-sweats so that the sheets would be wet I tried other medicine but got no relief. After taking one bot tle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I began to improve and I continued its use for six months. The pains left me, the night-sweats and hot flashes grew less, and in one year I was a different woman. I know I have to thank you for my continued good health ever since." Mrs. M. J. Browkell, Mans ton. Wis. The success of Lydit E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, is unparalleled in such cases. If jou wsnt special advice write to Lydia E.

Retailers measure advertising value by actual customers and actual sales. That is why the retailer invariably favors newspaper advertising. It sends customers to his store and sells the goods. When it is the manufacturer adver tising in the local newspaper that is sending those customers that retailer is naturally favorable to that manu facturer and his goods. He shows the goods and sells them. f -3 ET-3 3 r-3 t-.3 C3 E3 II -.:- i t . . n j . wouisd, anu una in unci couuucucc. ; aLiliililuiiliiiiiHUliliillilliiilii.liiiiiilliiliiiL'lili.
