I had heart trouble, was short of breath and could not walk five blocks to save my life. Suffered very much with my back, had headache all the time, was nervous, menstruations were irregular and painful, had a bad discharge and was troubled with bloating. I was perfect wreck. Had doctored and taken local treatments, but still was no better.

BRANDON IS

In Few Days Elections Will Be Or dered for the Purpose of Choos- ing of Colonels for the
 Three Regiments

Adjutant General w. w. Brandon passed through the city yesterday morning on his way from the commencement exercises at Tuscaloosa to Montgomery. While in Bir- mingham he confirmed the rumor that he would be a candidate for the democratic nomination for congress from the Sixth district next year, to oppose John H. Bank head. He said he was the race to stay and that he would w.
 The counties composing the district are Tuscaloosa, General Brandon's home coun- ty, Fayette, Colonel Bankhead's county, Pickens, Sumter, Green, Marion, Lamar and Walker.
 Elections for ColoneIs
 Adjutant Brandon, talking of military matters, stated that within the next few days orders would be issued for the cleo tion colonels in the three regiments of the Alabama National guard, and that the election would be held within fifteen days afterward. He did not say whether or not the vacant majorties would be filled at the same time or not.
 So far as is known, there is only one can- didate for the chief office in the Third
 
 who commanded the Birmingham battalion in the First Alabama volunteers during the war, and who has devoted many years to the national guard service. It seems prob able that he will be elected without oppo- sition.
 It also looks as if Major o. Kyle, of Gadsden, who commanded the Third bat talion of the First Alabama during the war, will get the lieutenant -coonelcy of the organized regiment.
 But there will be a hot fight, it is thought, among the captains of the vari- ous companies, who are trying to get the vacant majorities. Among those mentioned as candidates are Captain T. T. Huey Of the Bessemer Rifles; Captain w. M Me Kleroy, formerly of the Anniston com- pany; Captain Arthur Harrison, of the Oxford Rifles, and others.
 These majorities were filled during the war by Major T. O. Smith, of this city; Major D. D. Mcleod, of Anniston, who has since died, and Major o. Kyle, of De- catur.

by the increasing intimacy of some of

The Indians retaliated by mutilating

The situation is grave. as the Indians
