Our daughter, twelve years old,
has always been sick from weakness
of the stomach aud limbs; pain
across her back, and general de-
bility have kept her from school.
We could not get help for her from
the several doctors whom we tried.
The countless medicines we bought
gave her no benefit. Her appetite
never was good; all she ate was n
few mouthfuls of graham bread NJ
a meal. Last summer we lost all
hope, for we were afraid OF her
dying Of consumption. Six weeks
ago she could not walk two hun
dred yards without getting very
tired. Now she can walk to tho
city, two miles, aud hack, without
the least wearinessi her appetite Ia

THE FOURTH.

The glorious Fourth is over and large
number of people are glad of it. The older
one gets the more he is troubled with ap-
July frecracker. When the day has
passed and no serious damage has been
doae to persons or property the people feel
relieved. The old Fourth" was different.
Then the celebrations consisted chiefly OF
prayer. reading the declaration of indie
pendence and good, old fashioned spread
eagle speeches, all OF which tend more to
build up healthy patriotism than the
shooting OF all the firecrackers ever made.
But then the star of progress must move.
whether in the rong or right direction.
Tie majority presumably prefer the fire
crackers report TO oratory and the maj or-
ity governs There are some things
in favor of oratory, however, and they
are many Oratory will not set the
town on fire, it will not scare horses,
it will not brighten people almost to death
nor will il Kill or MAIN people no matter
how radical it may be.
Yesterday was celebrated in this city in
four or five different ways. The parade in
the morning was not success by any
means. 1t was no credit TO Wichita at all
and the people knew it.
So far as heard from the ADJUSTMENTS
were very entertaining and everybody h ad
good time. There WAS an immense
amount Of people in town, but they were
scattered among the different places of en-
tertainment. II there was but one picnic,
the crowd would probably be conceded as
one of the largest ever assembled here on
"a like occasion.
Good order was noticeable everywhere
and very few if any drunHs Were reported
at police headquarters.

extended to the barn Of James H. Black

tiremeu had TO be divided in order to save
the barr OF Mr.. Hess near by. Both barns
were completely destroyed, but fortunate
