Mrs. Alma Potts

Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate dis
placement or nerve degeneration of
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
is how can a woman who has some fe-
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of $40 Park Avenue,
Hot Springs, Ark, writes:
MY Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
During the early part Of my married life
was delicate in health both my husband and
were very anxious for child to bless our
home, but had two miscarriages, and could
not carry child to maturity. A neighbor
who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound advised me to try it. l
did so and soon felt that l was growing
stronger, my headaches and backaches left
me, had no more bearing-down pains, and
felt like new woman. Within year l
became the mother of strong, healthy
child, the JOY OF our home. Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is certainly a
splendid remedy, and l wish every woman
who wants to become q mother would try it.'
Actual sterility in woman is very
rare. If any woman thinks she is ster-
lie, let her try Lydia Il. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs.
Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice is
free 10 expectant or would-be mothers.

Turkish waters, Is due to arrive at RI
raus at daybreak tomorrow morning. The
French wsrships will probably arrive at
Piraeus after the Austrian vessels, and
it is expected that the Italian contin-
gent will follow. Hopes are still enter
tanned at Vienna that the Sultan will
acceed to the demands of the powers re-
garding the Macedonian reforms and
thus obviate the necessity of demon
stration. The British armored cruiser
Lancaster and the scoutship Sentinel
have been dispatched to Piraeus. The
frequent and prolonged conference of the
Council of Ministers at the YildeE Palace,
Coustsntinople, are believed to indicate
preparations to yield in principle to the
demand Of the powers for the accept
ance of the financial reforms decided
upon for Macedonia. Probably, how
ever, the Turkish government will
make further attempts to secure
notifications of the plans before
definitely accepting the full programme.
The arrival of the international feet at
Piraeus is likely to hasten the Turkish
decision. The Russian feet has return
ed to sevastopol after short cruise in

heard in the Blair county courts, was
commenced here yesterday, in the case
of Willard F. Blake, of Martinsburg,
against the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, $500, 900 for use of his patent
for drop bottom cars. Blake claims that
he had vision during an attack of
fever, in which an angel appeared to
him and explained to him how to built
a railroad car which would carry $780,
900 pounds, instead of the 30, 900 car
ried by the old style cars. He obtained
patent on his invention and showed it
to the Pennsylvania Railroad officials,
who, he says, have since used his de-
vice without paying him for the same.

River improvements

The following rivers in Virginia arc
those which have been selected for
widening, dredging and clearing of
wreckage of different kinds that they
may become at once nsvigable to vessels
of medium draft. A depth of Is feet
was first considered, but on account of
of the expense attached, the board of en-
giDeers thought it better to recommend
that all of the rivers be dredged to
depth of only ten or twelve feet. Those
rivers in Virginia which will receive
the benefit of this new navigation are ::
Warwick creeS, Norfolk harbOr, and
from the Norfolk channel of the Eliza
beth river to the drawbridge across the
western branch; Upper Machodoc creek,
Occoquap creek, Quantico creek, Black
water creek, the channel from deep water
in Hampton Rords to the Norfolk navy
yard, with a view towards widening aud
Strengthening the same. The board will
also submit estimates for deepening the
water in Hampton Roads to a depth CT
from twenty five to thirty feet.

only the failing health OF the young man

most pathetic scene was enacted in Court
when the sentence was delivered. The
aged mother of the prisoner and bis
sisters fell upon their knees before the
Judge, begging clemency. The girls
fought their way to the judges stand,
and, throwing their arms around his
neck, wept and begged until they were
forcibly taken away, the judge escaping
TO the anteroom. Later the women fol-
lowed Judge Mcdowell through the
streets to his hotel, crying piteously and
begging for elemency.

Fiva Hundred to One.

After having retarded the progress OF
the 1000, 900 addition to the great
steel plant of the Jones & Laughlin
Company, on the South Side, Pittsburg,
for more than six months, Mrs. Sarah
Lot, who siubbornly refused to part with
her home, which was desired by the steel
corporation, was defeated Saturday after
noon.
Taking the law in its own hands, and
in open defiance of the Court, the
steel corporation sent 500 workmen to
the little home of the widow during
her absence to get an injunction from
the court.
The men overpowered her three fero-
cious dogs, which had been left on guard,
and within half an hour tore down the
stockade which had been builtaround the
house, and carried house and furnishings
of the property. Great steel girders and
tons of stone were placed on the ground
instead.
The addition Of the great steel plant
extends along Sidney street, from Twen-
ty-fourth 10 Thirty-fourth street. The
company bought up all the property
along the street. Mrs. Lot positively
refused to sell.
Fifty years ago her husband bad taken
her to the house as his bride, and there
she reared her family, and there her bus
band died. On his deathbed he told
her never to sell the old homestead, de-
claring that bad luck would come to her
If she did.
Her son and daughter advised her to
sell to the steel company when liberal
offer was made. The company tried to
force her out by building all around her,
but she only erected a stockade around
her two-story frame house, purchased
three ferocious dogs and de6ed the cor
poration.
Finding itself baked, the company
applied to the courts, but could get NJ
relief. They offered Mrs. Lot bonus of
$40, 900 and agreed to settle with her
heirs; but they might as we'll have
talked to Lots wife of old she of salt.
The widow left Charles Lot, her
brother-in-law, in charge of the property
when she went to the court house Sat.
urday.
He strayed over to the Jones and
Laughlin's property, was arrested for
treSpassing and the house was demol-
ished before Mrs. Lots return.

WEDNESDAY EVENING. NOV. %. 1905.

THANKSGIVING DAY is again draw
ing near, aud, like the Christmas and
Easter seasons, it is anticipated by a
large majority. 1t is a season OF feast
ing and the spirit of true Thanksgiving is
but an incident of the festivities. Some
merchants advertise delicacies to tickle
the palate and others raimeDt supposed
TO be ia keeping with the occasion,
while some utilize the season to tempt
housekeepers to metamorphose the in
terror of their homes and provide decora-
tions for the day. In instances where
the retlrn of thanks is the chief feature
of tn, day and the festivities made
secondary thereto, the true object of the
day is accomplished; but, unfortunately,
like Christmas, in the great majority OF
cases the spiritual import of Thanks
giving Day is obscured by teasting,
theatre parties and attempts TO outsbine
one another. Many who cannot afford
to enter into the foregoing festivities
spend the day cunning, fishing or in
other pastimes. In fact, the day has
long since lost its true meaning. There
is much for which people in this coun-
try should be thankful, as conditions
here stand in marked contrast to those
in many other portions of the globe
There were abundant harvests during
the past season, and the nsticn has been
singularly exempt from dearth and COM
motion which have beset other lands.
The recent appearance OF six or seven
thousand women in Whitehall, London,

lence have stalked abroad in other
countries
