Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as they imagine, one
from dyspepsia, another from heart disease,
another from liver or kidney disease, another
another with pain here and there, and in
this way they all present, alike to themselves
and their easy-g going and Indifferent, or over
busy doctor, separate and distinct diseases,
Tor which he prescribes his pills and potions,
assuming them TO be such, when, In reality,
womb disorder. The physician, Ignorant II
the cause OF suffering, encourages his practice
until large bills are made. The suffering
patient gets no better, but probably worse
by reason Of the delay, wrong treatment and
consequent complications. A proper rnedi-
directed to the cause would have entirely
removed the disease, thereby dispelling all
those distressing symptoms and instituting
comfort instead Of prolonged misery.

The origin of "windfall, in tho sense
of good luck, dates from the time of
William the Conqueror. 1t was then
a criminal offense to cut timber in the
forests. Only such could be gathered
as the wind had blown down; hence a
heavy wind-storm was hailed by the
peasants as so much good luck; and
hence the modern application Of the
expression.

NEW WATER SUPPLIES.
Various Proposals to Furnish the
City With Millions of Gallons.

various proposals 10 FURNISH the
City With Millions of Gallons.
The Water Supply Committee OF the
Board Of Supervisors considered yesterday
a mum Der of communications which have
been received during the last few months
from different sources containing PROPOSE
tons for supplying San Francisco with
wafer.
Most of these proposals have been con-
sidered at various times by the Water
Committee. NJ. C. Taylor of Grass Val
ley proposed to bring water from a source
of supply in n evada County, the drainage
area of melting snow being 700 square
miles. The average flow, be clai ms, is one
billion gallons daily, and the distance of
the reservoir site from the city is 100
miles. He says that SIX years would be
required to build the necessary works and
the cost would be SIS. 100000.
Edwin K. Alslp proposed to sell a
source of supply on the north fork of the
American River in Placer County, which
can supply 100000 gallons a day If de-
veloped. His system combined gravita-
ton and pumping, and the plan calls for a
canal fly miles long, from the river to
the reservoir near Auburn, with a pipe
line 10 this city. The construction of the
works would require three years. and the
cost would be over $4,000, 600.
Another proposition from the FL Dorado
Water Company was read, agreeing to sell
certain water rights in Ell Dorado County
for 100000. The cost of the construction
of the works would be over S1l 100000
A proposal submitted by Engineer Won
Schmidt embraced the full particulars of
an offer made by him to the city in 1890
for furnishing supply of water from
Lake Tahoe. The cost would be S13.-
OOO, 600 for furnishing 100000 gallons of
fine water daily.

she answered, yes" An attorney
was summoned, who explained to her
the nature of a will, and by n series Of
questions, which she answered by

the disposition of her property. by
the terms of the will the estate was
divided between her four children, dis
inheriting the child of her deceased
