Citizens of Wichita County Want
New Name,

Leoti July 25.-There is a movement on
foot among some of the residents of Wich-

behind the plan have two objects in view,

and hero of Manila; second, to prevent the
confusion of the name of Wichita county
with Wichita city.

chorus of protests rose from all

Mr.. Teller went to Mr.. Pettigrew
and appealed to him personally to
withdraw his objection.
Mr.. Frye expressed the hope that the
objection would be Withdrawn, as Mr.
Petttgrew could have no greater OBJ
lection to comforting an American reg

but in this instance it seemed absolute
ly necessary, as the war department
had completed the charter of the vessel
and it's services were seriously needed
Finally Mr.. Pettigrew said, at the

orders for from twenty-five to thirty car loads
per day. The rush for twine Is surprising,
and many will be disappointed. Scores Of tel

parts Of the state, in which inquiries are being
made for Irvine, but Mr.. Wolfer says 1t Is no

can be filled. small lot has bean retainf d

Ill health is a luxury that only
the rich can afford, and that no one can en-
Joy. Every woman is not so situated that
she can be an interesting invalid, OF rather,
an uninteresting invalid, for there never
was an interesting one.
The woman who suffers from weakness
and disease of the distinctly feminine or
gans is certain to become an invalid. No
woman can suffer in this way and be a
healthy, happy, amiable wife and a compe-
tent mother Troubles of this nature sap
the strength, rack the nerves, paint lines
of suffering upon the face, destroy the tenn
per, make the once bright eyes dull and
the once active brain sluggish, and trans
form vivacious woman into weak sickly
invalid.
The one sure, speedy, permanent cure
for all disorders of the distinctly feminine
nature IS DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
1t acts directly on the delicate and import
ant organs concerned, and makes them
strong, healthy, vigorous and elastic It
cures the internal liberation and inhamma-
ton that give rise to facilitating drain on
the system. 1t Is the best medicine for
overworked, rundown " women.
about six years ago my wife became afflicted
with female weakness" writes the Rev. l. T.
Coppedee, of Elmo Kaufman Co., Texas "Sfie
gould not stand on her feet or get in any position
in which she did not suffer great pain. She
despaired Of ever again being well. She took six
bottles of DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and
has been well and happy for twelve months"

the women In the selection of material
and the kind of garments most needed.
The greatest attention was paid to
making the abdominal bands which ac-
counts for the large number of these
bands packed in the boxes. 1t was
the original intention to send a band
for every man in the regiment but ow-
ing to the shortness Of the times, this
was found to be, impossible and the
women sent as many as they could get
ready.
The following is the contents of the

regular army who may be made staff off,
GERS in the volunteer service shall not vacate
their offices in the regular army was called
up by Mr.. Hull Qowa). The measure it was

drawn.
