Kind Sir:- had been troubled for

tism and last Spring, year ago, was
confined TO my bed and could scarcely mora
or stir. Could not bear to have any one
walk across the room or make any noise
of any kind. Was also troubled with

Physicians 1 could get, but grew worse
all the time. Having read of your Rem
edies at last made up my mind to try
them. / had very little faith for I
thought, perhaps, they were no better
than lots of OF hers that had used before
without any benefit. But thanks be to
God and also to you, tried them and
found it to my benefit. l only took ttoo
kottles of your Scamp Root and one OF
Female Remedy and used one bottle OF
your U. & o. An ointment and was CON,
Pleteiy cured.
1t is now over one year since I was
troubled and yet have not felt single
touch or return of the old complaints.
| think 1 was better before I had taken
Dne-half of the first bottle. l now believe
and have more faith in you than any
other doctor on earth.
If this will be of any benefit to you o,
others, you can publish it and If need be
can prone it by more than tuenty
good and reliable people in this vicinity.

Awoke in Her Coffin.

Mrs. S. Wilson, living y miles south
OF Warsaw, Ill, became suddenly ill
last Saturday and TO all appearances
died. She was dressed for burial,
and arrangements for her funeral
were made. No physician was called.
On Monday a neighbor was sent to
Warsaw for a coffin, but got drunk
and did not reach home until Tuesday
morning. When the watchers began
to place the supposed corpse in the
coffin the woman threw up her arms
and caught one Of the attendants by
both wrists. With difficulty her fingers
were released BY the aid of mirror
respiration was detected, restoratives
were applied, and in a few hours Mrs.
Wilson was able to talk. She is too
weak to say much about her eXper-
fence while in the trance. She said
she knew preparations were being
made for her burial, and ii was by an
almost superhuman effort that she
threw up her arms and clutched the
wrists of the attendant. She will re
cover.

She Bought a Husband.

William H. Plumb, aged twenty-one,
who worked on the streets at S1.25

Jackson, Mich, the other day. He
learned that Mrs. Amanda Bentley, a
guest at the Howell House, would
pay any man who would marry her

with her. She is seventy years old.
Plumb met Mrs. Bentley's man of
business, J. A. Dart, and they secured
a license. Justice Palmer tied the
knot.
immediately after the ceremony
Mrs. Bentley, or Mrs. Plumb, took the
train for Grand Rapids. Her home is
in Ridgetown, Canada. She explained
her marriage as follows:
My husband, who died some years
ago, had been married before and had
several children. He left will be-
queathing large share of the estate
to me during my life. There: IS clause
in the document providing that il |

years old and cripple. Should | die

was his intention to have all that was

THE determination of Mr.. John =.
Kearfott to head a new sheriffalty
ticket insures lively contest between
now and the primary election. The
battle is squarely on. Both sides are
represented by good men, of whom
nothing derogatory can be said. 1t
is fight between the old and the
new between those who believe in
rotation in Office and those who
think public officials ought to be kept
in place as long as they properly per-
form their duty. We believe the con-
test will be an earnest one, but we
trust that 1t will at the same time be
a good-huInored one, and that the re-
suit will be manfully accepted by both
losers and winners.
The REGISTER will have no edito-
rial preferences. Its columns are open
to full and free discussion of the is
sues involved, and it will be for the
ticket selected by the people at the
primaries.

An Ohio Dr.. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde.

For some weeks citizens of Spring
field. Ohio, have been living in terror
of some one who, lying in wait for
passers-by, seemed TO take fieudish
delight in clubbing them with heavy
iron rod. Attempts to capture or
identify the culprit were all baffled
On Sunday night James Curry saw a
figure which answered the description
Of a man sinking along the street
under the shadow Of a fence. He
gave the alarm and headed party
to capture the fellow. Mr.. Curry
soon caught up with the man, when
the latter turned, knocked him down
with a tremendous blow, then rushed
toward the open country. The pur-
suers chased him for long distance
and gradually gained on him. He
suddenly stopped and rushed toward
them, armed with short club. So
terrible was his appearance the whole
crowd turned and ran. The man
then rushed back toward town. The
crowd soon recovered courage and
followed. Suddenly the man rushed
toward the house occupied by one of
the most prominent and wealthiest
citizens of the place, Mr.. William
Bender. Quickly opening the door
he rushed inside. The pursuers
feared the man would do so some
thing desperate, SO rushed in after
him. What was their amazement to
find the man lying on a lounge, pale
as death, with bloodshot eyes. 1t was
the master Of the house, William
Bender. He confessed that he had
committed the assaults and said it
was on account of an irresistible ILL
pulse,

fell, sure enough out rolled some
81. 900 in shiny silver dollars. Each

membered that so much silver would
be heavy to carry and asked the farm
err to give him -, QUO in paper money
for his share OF the find. Prinkey

all his silver dollars had turned blue.
They were tin and lead, and had been
placed in the tree by the bunco man.
