Mrs. Bertha Wood, wife Of our ex-
States Attorney for Custer county, re-
turned home on the train last Wednes-
day. Mrs. Wood has been a great
sufferer from a complication of ailn ents
for many months. She has been so
jodrning ia st. Louis for the last two
and a half months, during which time
she has for the most part been under the
surgeons care. She has had several
operations performed, both on her eyes,
and for other physical disabilities. She
returns much improved in some re.
spects, but as yet quite weak from the
trying ordeal through which she has
passed. 1t is sincerely hoped, and be-
lieved, that in the quietude of home,
and under the softening influences Of
the balmy air Of returning spring, she
may soon be her old self again.
