MISS KENNEDY'S CASE.
WHY SHE LEFT HER STUDIES At THE
HIGH SCHOOL,
Every Mother Of a Growing Girl vii Be
Interested in the Story as Told by
the Young Lady Herself.

The circumstances under which
Bertha Kennedy was taken from her
studies in the high school will be of
interest to all mothers of growing
girls. Miss Kennedy said to report
er:
"When / was fourteen years old l
began to decline in health on account
of a suppression of the natural func-
tions of my sex, and. | am sure L
would never have been the healthy
girl L am now if il had not been for
Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie. l was entirely without color,
thin as a rail. nervous and irritable,
tired and lifeless and in seriously
low state of health in general. AL
though a good doctor was treating me,
he failed to do any good and my par
ents felt very much alarmed about
me.
81 was taken from the high school
on account of my poor health, but
continued to grow worse. Then L be-
gan to take DR.. Williams Pink Pills,
and with the first few doses began to
feel better. Four boxes brought about
the desired result and a few boxes
more restored me entirely to health.
Now have a good color, am strong
and active and have not been sick
day from that time to the present.
Miss Kennedy lives at Canton juno
ton, Mass. and both she and her
mother are willing to testify to the
above statement.
No discovery of modern times has
proved such blessing to woman as
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. Acting directly on the blood
and nerves, invigorating the body,
regulating the functions, they re-
store the strength and health in the
exhausted patient when every effort
of the physician proves unavailing.
These pills are sold only in boxes at
fifty cents a box or six boxes for two
dollars and half, and may be had
at all druggists, or direct by mail
from DR.. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, n. Y.

SENATE-AFTERNOON.

Tuberculosis. s. 4. Russell cattle
commission bill) was taken up as I'M
finished business, the question being
on the adoption of Senator Stiles
amendment providing for compulsory
test. Senator Brown opposed, on the
ground that more good would be done
by less radical action. He feared
that it would provoke so much OPP
position that the whole board would
be done away with in two years. SEN
ator Walbridge agreed with Senator
Brown. Senator Stiles said Vermont
now stands in advance of most States
in health measures, and thought the
Russell bill without the amendment
would be a backward step. Senator
Sutton was personally opposed to any
sort of cattle commission. Senator
Backus said he would favor the pay
ment of 1870 per cent to the farmer in
stead of 80 per cent thus putting a
bounty on the killing and so eradicate
the disease.
The amendment was refused. Those
voting yea were Senators Backus,
Graves, Nelson, Stiles, Wilcox, 5; no,

WATERFRONT At CLOSE RANGE.

British Ship Has Marrow Escape
From Complete Destruction. j.
Capt.sFerguson of the British steam
ship Hestia was passing Hatteras.
when he observed several waterspouts
In process Of formation at a distance
Of 800 to 400 yards to windward. The
largest one. which was completely
formed, was bearing directly down
on the ship and 1t was impossible to
change the course to avoid 1t. The
captain sent all hands below and him
self sought place OF safety. A deaf
ening roar was heard when the spout
struck the ship and this was quickly
followed by strong wind gusts. The
captain returned to the deck In time
to see two tarpaulins and ia. plank
eight feet long by ten inches wide
high in the air and his log line, with
the log attached, extended straight up
into the air for a distance of forty
feet. No real harm was done to. the
vessel, but there was a distinct feeling
Of relief when the incident was closed
and ordinary plain sailing again re.
sumed.
