SEEKS AN APPEAL.
Peculiarly Unfortunate Oversight OF
Father who made His Daughter


Peculiarly Unfortunate Oversight OF
Father who Made His Daughter
y Present.
Special to the Register
CHARLESTON, w. va, October IT,
An unusual case, which came up be-
fore Judge McWhorter yesterday, In
the Supreme Court, was one in which
a daughter sues her father to recover
possession of gift of land. Appli-
cation was made by Martha j. Stone
for an appeal from a decision rendered
by the Circuit Court of Logan county
in a case in which she was plaintiff,
and her father, L. D HILL was defend
ant. The object of the, suit was to en-
force the specific performance of the
gift.
The father had in 1854 given his
daughter tract of two hundred acres
of land, which having settled upon she
remained in possession OF for fifteen
years, and during that time expended
some 81 200 for its improvement. After
wards her father. becoming liable as
surety on the bond of county official,
gave a deed of trust on the land in
order to indemnify the sureties. The
daughter thereupon brought suit for
its recovery. 1t developed in the trial
that the father, who is nearly eighty
years old. had failed to convey to his
daughter a legal title to the land, al
though it was mis- intention to do so, a
will which he had prepared in her be-
half being introduced to show his in
tentions. The decision of the lower
court went against her and she now
seeks an appeal.

Now and again you see two women
passing down the street who look like
sisters. You are astonished to learn that

they are mother and daughter, and you
realize that woman at forty or forty
five ought to be at her finest and fairest.
Why isn't it so?
The general health of woman is so in
tirnately associated with the local health
of the essentially feminine organs that
there can be no rich cheek and round
form where there are facilitating drains,
and female weakness. Women who have
suffered from these troubles have found
prompt relief and cure in the use of DR..

STARTS WITH A COLD.

Cntarrh is n Lingering Cold Whicl
Refuses to Yield 10 Ordinar'
Treatment.
Catarrh usually starts with a
cold In the mead and if left I'M
checked In this climate, rarely
gets well of itself.
As fresh cold is taken the disease
spreads, getting deeper and deep
er, creeping along the mucous
membranes from nose to 0nroat,
from throat to windpipe, from
windpipe to bronchial tubes and
from bronchial tubes to lung cells.
The mucous membranes all con-
meet, one with another. Hence it
is easy to spread from one part to
another lined with this same mem
brane. This is why catarrh in the
head soon effects the taroat and
finally the stomach itself, bringing
on chronic catarrh OF the stomach,
which is a most obstinate form OF
dyspepsia,
Everybody is now we'll agreed
that catarrh is blood disease and
not local one, and the attempt to
cureAby local applications simply
gives temporary relief from the
purely local symptoms Without the
iemoGest effect in staying the pro-
gress OF the disease.
There is new preparation re-
gently offered to the public that is
apparently destined to do away with
every other form of catarrh treat
ment.
This new remedy is not secret
pa.ent medicine, but is a large,
pleasant tasting tablet composed Of
SauSuinalra, Eucalyptol, Guaiacal,
Hydrasiin and other valuable and
harmless specifics, which are taken
internally and seem to have re-
markably beneficial effect upon the
blood and mucous membranes, ap-
parently eliminating the catarrhal
poison from the whole system.
These tablets while being pleas
ant, convenient and absolutely
safe to use have made cures in long
standing cases OF catarrh that are
little short of marvellous. They are
sold by druggists under name of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and any
catarrh sufferer who has tried in
halers, lotsore, otntments, salves,
etc., and realized their inconven-
fence and uSelezsness, win fully APP
preciate the difference between a.
mere palliative and permanent
cure after giving Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets an impartial trial.
All druggists sell them at so
cents fer fun sized package and
no matter where the catarrh is To-
eased, il The head. throat, lungs
