LuDLow's RECOMMENDATIONS
He Sees Wherein the Government of Havana Could be Greatly Improved

Washington, September 3.-Brigadier- General Ludlow, military governor of Ha- yana, has submitted report to the war department covering the work of the past year. with recommendations for some changes in the present system.
 He suggests an apporuonment of the sur plus customs revenues among the several departments. An increase of local reve- nues is urged to accomplish this. General Ludlow proposes an increase of taxes on real estate from to 12 per cent. A gen. eral revision of the tax system is required, the present system being defective and probably corrupt, in the opinion or the general General Ludlow says that the civil government of Havana now dis charges many functions which should be left to the local administration; that there should be more police courts, and that ih all conditions care should be taken to re- spect the individuality of autonomy of each province.

 "You have saved my life, snatched me from the brink of the grave almost, and I wish to thank you. About eigh- teen months ago I was a total wreck, physically. I had been troubled with leucorrhoea for some time, but had given hardly any attention to the trouble.
 At last inflammation of the womb and ovaries resulted and then I sui fered agonies, had to give up my pro- fession (musician and piano player), was confined to my bed and life became a terrible cross. My husband sum- moned the best physicians, but their benefit was but temporary at best. I believe I should have contracted the morphine habit under their care, if my common sense had not intervened.
 "One day my husband noticed the ad- vertisement of your remedies and im- mediately bought me full trial. Soon the pain in my ovaries was gone. lam now well,- strong and robust, walk, ride wheel, and feel like girl in her teens. I would not be without Lydia E. Finkham's Vegetable Compound; it is like wster q life to ms, I an very gratefully a.1i sincerely youf welf. wistei', and heartily recommend your remedies. I hope some poor creature may be helped to health by reading my story. ''-MRs. Col. k. P. RICHARDSON, RJiInE-- --A....'rF. WIS.
