WHEELING LEADER CERTAIN
COLONEL WILL BE NOMI
NATED AND ELECTED.
General Thomas S. Riley of Wheel
ing, who for thirty years has been
one of the foremost Democratic lea
ders of the state, when asked by a
representative of the Wheeling Reg
ister about the Senatorial situation
in West Virginia from the Democratic
standpoint, said:
“Senator Watson will he nominat
ed and elected to the United States
Sesate, and that is why I am for him.
“Senator Chilton made a very
good senator, but he was nominated
two years ago as his own successor
without opposition, and at the elec
ttos he had the united support of the
party and was defeated by almost
6,000 votes. I am satisfied that it is
the consensus of opinion of the ma
jority cf the party that he should, it
least, wait uaitil the term he-lost be
comes vacated.”—(Political Adver

Says Watoga Lady, “As To What
Cardui Has Doae For Me, So
As To K«!p Others."
— ■ ■ ■ ■■ «
Watoga, \» Va —Mrs. S. W. Oladwell,
of this town, says: "When about 15 years,
of age, I suffered greatly .. . Sometimes
would go a month or two, and 1 had
terrible headache, backache, and bearing
down pains, and would just drag and
had no appetite. Then ... it would last
. .. two weeks, and was so weakening,
and my health was awful.
My mother boughf me a bottle of
Cardui, and 1 began to improve after
taking the first bctfle, so kept it up till 1
took three ... I gained, and was well
and strong, and t owe it til to Cardui.
I am married now and have 3 children |
... 1 lave never had to have a doctor for
female trouble, and just reset t to Cardui
if I net‘d a tonic. 1 am glad to testify to
what it has done for me, so as to help
others.”
If yea are nervous or weak, have head
aches, backaches, or any of the other
ailments so common to women, why not
give Cardui a trial? Recommended by
many physicians. In use over 40 years.
Begin taking Cardui today. It may
be the very medicine you need.

P. R. R. ADOS THAT NUMBER TO
LIST DURING MONTH OF
JUNE. DUE TO WAR.
Philadelphia, July 10.—A net gain ■
of 1481 in the number of women em- I
ployed on the various Divisions of the fl
Pennsylvania Railroad, Eastern Dines I
was made during the month-of June. H
Tills is shown by the daily reports of fl
jthe Division Superintendents. On |j
May 31st a total of 6.873 women were H
employed in the Divisional offices, I
while the report June 30th, which has U
! just been compiled, shows a total of B
' 8,354 female employes on all Dlvi- fl
sions. This total does not include the fl
[Departments in the General Office® I
■ a* Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, w'here 1
' altogether considerably more than a H
| thousand women are working at the fl
■ present time.
i The latest compilation for all de- H
partments of the Pennsylvania Ibail- H
road, Eastern Dines, including the fl
I General Offices, has been made as of H
i June 1st, 191|8. Jt shows a 'total of |j
8,767 women in the service on all Di- gj
Visions and in a1! Departments at that fl
lime, One year previously, on June
1, 1917, 'there were only 1,945 women
employed, or an increase in a year of
G,&22.
The earliest compilation ever made
of the number of women at work in
all Departments was that of May 1,
*917, which showed 1,494, making an
increase in [thirteen months of 7,273. [,
Previous to the war, women were
very rarely taken inlo the service of E
the (Pennsylvania Railroad. In the fl
majority of the Departments none fj
were employed at all. There were, I
for many years, a very limited num- 1
her of women Station Agents and. h
telegraph operators. A few women M
were also employed in such work as
cleaning stations, cars and offices, and |
in the general offices a small number H
were employed in clerical positions,
but the totui cf female employes
never at any time exceeded more than I
a few hundred un 11 war conditions'
arose.
At present, women are working in
sixty-nine classified occupations on
the (Pennsylvania Railroad, an i “avc
invaded many lines of employment—[
some involving manual labo which j fl
were formerly regarded as capable of j"
being filled only by men. igj

BOOTLEGGERS IN STATE
Walter S. dlallanan, state prohibi
tion officer, has invented a nevv|
scheme for getting af.er the bootleg
gers. This is the way he explained
it. to a reporter for the Charleston;
Deader: When a prospective victim
is “spotted” but who is slick enough
to keep out from under all incrimi
nating evidence the. prohibitioh de
partment and the county prosecu-j
tor’s office will at once get together,
and throw the slick one into jail, j
They won’t charge him with violating'
the jirohibi'ion law, you understand, j
but they’ll accuse him with being a:
vagrant and consistent idler. Under j
recent laws and regulations adopted
as war measures, an idler and vag- j
i rant doe® not fare any too well with!
the rest of (human kind. j
So that’s iihe new job of the pro
hibition officers. If they can’t get [
their quarry in their own specific1
way laid out many months ago,1
they’ll just grab ’em 'because they;
won’t work.
