for Liberty.

for Liberty.
Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Big Timber, Oct. 30.-Frank Neither
man, confined in the county jail here
charged with cattle stealing, escaped
from that institution tonight and is
now at large.
Netherman had been given some lib
critics, and it was while he was after a
bucket of coal in the Jail yard that he
took French leave. He was given
permission to go after the coal about
6:45 p. M, and when he did not return
in a reasonable time Jailor Anderson
suspected something was wrong and
instituted a search. The fugitive was
seen about an hour ago attempting to
board an eastbound freight, but got
away as soon as discovered. The Of
ficers are confident that they will have
him before morning.
Netherman is about 5 feet 7 inches
in height, weight about las pounds,
dark complexion, small black NOUS
tache, hollow-eyed, sharp features,
about 80 years of age, wears a white
and black check shirt and a tie of the
same pattern, dark suit and SLOUGH
hat. There was a sure case against
him, and he will probably make des-
perate effort to get away.

LETTER TO MRS. PINkHAM NO. Iz,7,3l
81 am very grateful to you for your
kindness and the interest you have
taken in me, and truly believe your
medicines and advice are worth more
to a woman than all the doctors in the
world. For years had female troubles
and did nothing for them. Of course
1 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 ovaries.
81 underwent local treatment every
day for some time; then after nearly
two months the doctor gave me permits
sion to 60 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, de-
cided to let doctors and their medicine
alone and try your remedies. Before
the first bottle was gone / felt the eff
fects of it. Three bottles of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and a
package of her Sanative Wash did me
more good than all the doctors treat
ments and medicine.
"The first remark that greets me
now is How much better you look! and
you may be sure never hesitate to tell
the cause of my health. "-MRs. E. j.
