and did nothing for them. of course
became no better and finally broke
down entirely. My troubles began
with inflammation and hemorrhages
from the kidneys, then inflammation,
congestion and falling of the womb
and Inflammation of ovarics.
~ underwent local treatment every
day for some time; then after nearly
two months the doctor gave me permis-
sion to go back to work. went back,
but in less than q week was COM
PEELED to give up and go to bed. On
breaking down the second time, 1 de-
cided to let doctors and their medicine
alone and try your remedies. Before
the first bottle was gone l felt the eff
fects Of. 1t. Three bottles of Lydia Z.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
package Of her Sanative Wash did me
more good than all the doctors treat
ments and medicine.

The City Filled with People.

It seemed rs II nearly all Of the peo-
pie of Kansas who could leave home
were here to give honor and warm well
come to the soldier boys and officers Of
the Twentieth Kansas. The hotels
were filed yesterday with people who
came early to avoid the rush. The
overflow that came in last night and
could not get into the hotels went into
the private boarding houses and filed
them. Even private homes were thrown
open to care for the visitors. The
thousands who came In yesterday
nearly all returned to their homes last
last night ON late special trains.
Fifth street, near the depot, was re-
served for the different sections Of the
regiment and their relatives, each sec
ton marked and placarded so there
would be no confusion and running
around to find relatives. Time was
given for these greetings before the
parade started up town.

elevator rang violently the other evening

The car went promptly whirling upward,
but In a moment it came down empty of
passengers. "Spook ring" said the at

two three repeats, sounded exactly as
