Went a Little Too Ear.

A commercial travelling man landed
at Edinburgh, Scotland, one Saturday
night, too late to get utof town for Sun
day. The next day he found that there
was actually no form Of amusement In
the whole city to assist him in Willing

prietor of the hotel to see If he could
suggest a way of passing the remain

The landlord took pity on the stran-
ger and took him to one of the rooms

Scotchmen were playing game called

TWO STREET CAR VICTIMS.
Old Man and Young Boy Get Under tho
Cruel Wheels.


Detroit Sept. 19.-N1ichael James
Cunningham, 20 years old and q resi-
dent of Detroit for half century, was
killed on the corner of First street and
Michigan avenue. He was on his way
to his room at 1870 First street, cross
ing Michigan at the intersection Of
Abbott, when a west-bOund Baker
street car struck him, crushing him
under the fender, passing over him
with the front trucks and tangling his
body in the gearing Of the outside rear
wheels. 1t was impossible TO eXtricate
the body at first. He was dragged half
a block and the motorman, Dennis
O'Haloran, was compelled to back up.
After the operation which deprived
little Datus Pierson of both feet, the
doctors and nurses at Harper hospital
felt little hope that he would rally
and expressed the belief that he would
die. When his father and mother
reached the hospital they were told
that he was much improved and that
there was hope that he would recover.
Datus, who will be 8 years old next
month, was the second victim of the
street car. He was on his way home
after delivering his papers, when he
stopped to play marbles at the corner
of Hudson and Grand River avenues.
Datus ran out into the road and was
struck by an east-bound Jefferson car
the result being the operation noted In
the foregoing

GALVESTON SEES HOPE.
No Epidemic Is Feared and the Talk Now
Is About Rebu Iding.


Galveston, Tex, Sept. 1S.-''The sit
uation continues to improve is what
one is told now at the various head
quarters. Work has been brought down
TO a business basis as far as possible,
and the amount Of system and order
displayed in the various departments
would furnish cause for considerable
surprise to any one who might return
to Galveston after an absence of three
or four days.
Supplies and money are pouring in
from all over the country. The COM
mittee in charge have refrained from
making public the exact amount Of
cash received so far, but at least sew
en- figures are needed to express the
total. This is being used judiciously,
so far as can be observed, and the
good effect of the presence of such re-
lief fund in the city is apparent.
The militia companies have been do
ing splendid work, and many of the
men are now of the belief that they
should now be allowed to return to
their homes and troops sent from 9th
er parts of the state to fill their places.
The fears of an epidemic have been
allayed by the presence and the dis
tributiOn of medicines and disinfect-
ants and therefore a feature which
would undoubtedly have bad eff
feet Of causing many to seek succor
elsewhere, has been eliminated from
the situation.

Two years ago L was a great

tumors in two years. 1 went through
treatment with doctors, but they did
me no good, and l thought l would

"The doctor said that all that could
help me was to have an operation and
have the womb removed, but l had
heard of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine and
decided to try it, and wrote for her
advice, and after taking her Vegetable
Compound the tumors were expelled

Dallas, Tex, Sept. 1S.-Tangible re-

the coast country as regards the re-
suits Of the storm and they in no way
diminish the horrors of the first pre-
diction and anticipations. News

seaside resort thirty miles northeast Of
Galveston, near the gulf shore, and in
the southwestern corner of Jefferson

The place had about 1000 residents,

Common
Sense
Talk with
Women

If a person is i'll and needs medi-
cine is 1t not wise to get one that has
stood the test of time and has hum
dreds of thousands of cures to it's
credit?
A great many women who are i'll try
everything they hear of in the way Of
medicine, and this experimenting with
unknown drugs is a constant menace
to their already impaired health.
This seems to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no ex-
periments and have been known years
and years to be doing only good.
Take for instance Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; for thirty
wears it's record has been one I'M
broken chain of success. No medicine
for female ills the world has ever
known has such a record for cures.
1t seems so strange that some people
will take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be, and are, really harmful (;
while on the other hand it is easily
proved that over one million women
have been restored to health by Lydia
Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
We have published in the news
papers of the United States more
genuine testimonial letters than have
ever been pu blished in the interest Of
any other medicine.
All this should, and does, produce a
spirit of confidence in the hearts Of
women which is difficult to dislodge,
and when they are asked to take some
thing else they say, "No, we want
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which has been tried, and
never found wanting, whose reliability
is established far beyond the expert
mental stage"
We have thousands of letters like the
following addressed to Mrs. Pinkham,

Der Of missing, 1000. Grand total

thousand men. A few mechanics from
other places have Immediately found
work. Many architects and contrac-
tors are preparing plans for new build
ings and other improvements. Build
ing material Is needed, but its delivery
Is necessarily slow, owing to the lack
of raid communication with the main
land.
Many Cases of Destitution.
There are still many pitiable cases
restitution. Many half-demented per-
sons positively refuse to leave their
wrecked homes and as persistently re-
fuse to accept offers of relief extended
them. In several instances parents
who have lost children still occupy
ruins of the former home and the sur
roundings have brought them to a
state of mental and physical collapse.
The number who have gone insane
as a result Of their experiences will
probably never be known. In every
lot Of refugees sent out of the stricken
city there have been some insane men
and women. The victims first make
light Of their losses and laugh immod-
erately when telling of the death of
relatives In the flood. 1t is quick
step from this to uncomfortable mad
ness.
