of a Wonderful Cure s.

envy trouble was with the ovaries;
I am tall, and the doctor said l grew
too fast for my strength. I suffered
dreadfully from Inflammation and
doctored continually, but got no help.
I suffered from terrible dragging SEN
sations with the most awful pains low
down in the side and pains in the back,
and the most agonizing headaches.
No one knows what l endured. Often
I was sick to the stomach, and every
little while I would be too sick to go
to work, for three or four days; work
in large store, and | suppose stand
ing on my feet all day made me worse.
''At the suggestion of a friend of
my mothers | began to take Lydia

doses it seemed as though weight
was taken off my shoulders I con-
tinued it's use until now | can truth

ga Gamblers Daughter. -

One of the most powerful and ex
citing theatrical productions ever
seen in this city will be at Holland s
Opera House next Tuesday, April
21st. when the new and sensational
melo-drama. "a Gamblers Daugh-
ter, comes here. 1t is play that
interests all. There is love, rO-
nance, villiany, heroism, coward
ice, conspiracy, and last, but not
least, comedy, in this play, and the
piece has scored a tremendous hit
this season wherever it has been
seen. The plot is a consistent one
which holds the attention and in
terest of the audience from start to
finish. 1t never lags, and in it no
dull places can be found. The au-
dience is either keyed up to a high
tension over the wildly exciting
climaxes and startling situations,
and thrilled to the marrow over the
of the heroine and her
brave young lover, or else 1t is
splitting it's sides laughing at the
antics of the comedian and
who figure conspicu-
ously in the plot. The serious side
Of the play is also enlivened at in
tervals by clever songs and speci-
alties. Absolutely new and very
scenery is used in the
and the company itself
s headed by clever Miss Lillian
the talented and we'll
known leading woman The piece
will surely attract large and en-
.husiastIc crowd.
