Project Abandoned, Owing to Lack
of Subscribers to stock.


OF Subscribers to stock.
The scheme TO hold a horse show in
Richmond this year has fallen through.
A great deal Of hard work has been
done TO make the show a certainty. but
al meeting Of the Arrangements Com
mittee in the office OF Mr.. Thomas ~
Carter yesterday afternoon IL was stated
that not enough shares had been sub
scribed for 10 make the show success.
1t was the understanding that not less
than 200 must be taken. The Canyassing
Committee reported that subscriptions
for only l73 shares had been secured. In
view of this fact the Committee on Or
ganiZation, consisting OF Messrs. Ashton
Starke, Frank w. Christian. 4. y. Car
ter. c. q. Bosher and Colonel John Muir
ply. has decided not TO wait longer. In
asmuch as the time remaining this year
is too short 10 admit OF making the show
a success.
Another year. however. ths effort will
BE made 10 have the show, and II Is very
probable that next year the plan viii
bear fruit. Following are the names OF
those who agreed TO take stock: OtWay

THE ILLS OF WOMEN
And How Mrs. Pinkham Helps
Overcome Them.
NJ, M,nv por.lsern, IIoi Marianne

Ma MARY BoLLrseEB, 1101 Mariana
st.. Chicago, ILL.,, TO Mrs. Pinkham:
az have been troubled for the past
two wears with falling Of the womb,
leucorrhea, pains over my body, SICK
headaches. backache, nervousness and
weakness. tried doctors and various
remedies without relief. After taking
two bottles of your Vegetable Com
pound, the relief l obtained was truly
wonderful. have now taken several
more bottles of your famous medicine,
and can say that am entirely cured"
Mrs. HENRY DoRB, No. SOC Findley ST.,
Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mrs. Pinkham:
"For long time / suffered with
chronic Inflammation OF the womb,
main in abdomen and bearing-down
feeling. Was very nervous at times, and
so weak was hardly able to do any
thing. Was subject TO headaches, also
troubled with leucorrhpa. After doc
torinp for many months with different
physicians, and getting 40 relief, l had
given up all hope of being well
again when I read of the great good
lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound was doing. l decided immedi-
atelv TO give it trial. The result was
eimply past belief. After taking four
bottles Of Vegetable Compound and
using three packages Of Sanative Wash
can say l feel like new woman. L
deem it my duty to announce the fact
10 my fellow sufferers that Lydia
f. Pinkham's Vegetable remedies have
entirely cured me of all my pains and
suffering. Ihave her alone TO thank
for my recovery, for which / am CRATE
full. Nav heaven bless her for the
good work she is doing for cur SEX"
anprobated the offer. and would nave
readily led a colored division, oihcered py
whites. IL such a command had been ten
dered TO him. Mr. BrOoke's memory OF
various phases OF this affair was quite
vivid when in late years he was approach
cd on the subject, and he promised Colo
mel Tom Smith to write 10 other members
OF the Secret Committee, compare notes
with them, and make the matter part
Of history showing the exigency OF the
Confederacy.
When we have but recently laid In the
grave our resourceful friend, this tribute
to his patriotism seems due. Like many
other suggestions that come to the pom
dering mind, it came too late TO supple
ment the truth of history.

When wear begins to exceed repair in your
body you are going to fall sick The signs of
it are: loss of flesh, paleness, weakness. ncr-
vousness, etc Tho repair needed is food.
You think you eat enough. and yet you feel
that you wear out more tissue, energy, nerve
force, than your food makes for you. The
difficulty is that you do not digest enough
And this is so serious it is worth sitting down
seriously to think about. II you can't digest
what you eat, take a few doses of Shaker
Digestive Cordial. The effect OF it will be to
increase your flesh and make you feel strong
or. You won't fall sick. Proof that it is in
control of your repair apparatus. It's easy
enough to test this for yourself Take few
