Spring Ailments.

There is an aching and tired feel
ing; the liver, bowels and kidneys be-
come sluggish and inactive, the diges-
ton impaired, with little or no ap-
petite, no ambition for anything, and
a feeling that the whole body and
mind needs toning up. The trouble
is, that during winter, there has been
an accumulation OF waste matter in
the system. Herbine will remove it,

FAMINE
is ENDED
There Is Plenty of Coal in
Wichita at Present.
TO SUPPLY THE DEMAND
Alarming Situation Has Been
AIIayed by Plentiful Supply.

The coal famine in Wichita is not 50
serious now Al OF the coal dealers have
received supplies OF coal and there is no
darSger OF serious consequences If cold
weather does come For several days
coal dealers have been getting in cars OF
coal until now the supply is almost equal
TO the demand. On some grades the deal
trs limit the amount 70 be sold 20 one
person. but all Of the dealers have sup
plies Of the common grades OF coal
There is nc anthracite coal on the nlar-
ket here except that from the Colorado
and Arkansas mines This does very well
in an emergency. Almost all Of the coal
used here IS bituminous coal and al
though the supply is not nearly 50 large
as in former years the dealers say they
have enough 70 keep all Wichltans from
suffering for q Week or ten days at least
and the supply is increasing all the time
TWO weeks ago there would have DSel
much suffering N this city had severe
cid snap come. There was absolutely no
coal in the yards and not a car in sight
The dealers were not selling coal ex-
cept in small quantities and this was OF
the poorest quality Steam coal was sold
10 people for household use.
ABOUT inc TnlUdte o. laSL week IDt
dealers received a few cars Of coal ard
the number Of cars has increased daily
since that time. Many persons were out
OF coal az the tine and no wood could
be procured, and since coal has been
coming in il has been sold directly from
the cars and people have a good supply
on hand Most of the dealers have at
least a weeks supply Of fuel on hand
at present and with a severe storm there
would be no danger OF suffering in this
section, as ne people have their bins
well filed Some have enough coal to
last until warm weather comes and
others have but few weeks supply.
and some less than that amount The
railroads have partially stopped their al
legged confscation OF the coal and this
accounts for the good supply in this city.
No one is limited a. 10 the amount they
can purchase at present. although II cold
weather sets in il is possible that a limit
