MRS. LYDIA E. PINKHAn: GAbout the
first of September, 1881, my wife was esken
with uterine hemorrhaSe. The bet styp-
tics the physician could prescribe did not
check it and she got more and more en-
feebled. She was troubl with Prolapsus
Uteri, Leucorrhea, numbness Of the llmhs,
sickness of the stomach and loss of ape
tite. l purchased trial bottle of your
Vegetable Compound. She said she could
discover a salutary effect from the first dose.
Now she is comparatively free from the
Prolapsus, Stomach's sickness, &c. The
hemorrhage is very much better and is
less at the regular periods. Her appetite
is restored, and her general health and
strength are much improved. We feel that
We have been wonderfully benefited and
our hearts are drawn out in gratitude for
the same and in sympathy for other suf-

Mr.. Laforest, who was in town

He thinks thata further cleaning

borhOod.
Should such prove the case,
which Is very doubtful, a remedy
can easily be found, by clearing
out the Bayou Romponpon which
will furnish additional outlet for
all the water to which Grand Bay
GU can furnish egress.
Once the water is carried rapid
" out of the swamps, and from the
higher lands, the matter of finding
outlets will soon be settled. The
first point to be gained is to free
the arabic lands from the surplus
water then to discover and furnish
capacity of escape will require but
