A Woman Tells How She Has Become Well
and Strong after Years of Misery
Due to Irregular Functions.
The tlct that one woman is bright
eyed, rosy checked, strong and cheerful,
while another is pale, weak and de-
pressed, is due moro often than other
wise to the regularity in the one case
and the irregularity in the other Of the
functions that are peculiar to the sex.
When these are disturbed everything
goes wrong; pain and discomfort are
felt all over the body; the sensations are
often terrifying.

FIRE AT CINCINNATI, IOWA.
New Livery Stable is Destroyed Two
Months After Former Fire.

Cincinnati, Ia, Sept. 21-(SpeciaD. -
At o'clock last evening the livery
stable belonging to Best Bros. of this
city, was discovered to be on fire.
Though the local fire department did
efficient work the fire had gained too
great start to be checked and the
building was totally destroyed. Only
few months ago the barn then occu-
pned by Best Bros. was burned, the
fire starting in the loft, the same as
the origin Of the fire last night The
cause of the confagration is unknown
The building was new one, having
been erected since the destruction of
the former barn. The barn, together
with its contents of grain and hay, was
totally destroyed. The horses, har-
ness and buggies were all saved, most
of them being in use at the time of the
fire.
The loss will probably amount to
about $1,000, and is at least partially
covered by Insurance..

Troop, who, according to Mr.. Moore,
claimed that Mrs. 8. V. Troop was
dead. He finally got the truth Of the
matter and wrote Mr.. Troop. His let
ter with comment was published in the
Charlotte (Mich.) Tribune, as follows:
"The reported death of Mrs. S. ".
Troop, formerly of this city, at Of
tumwa, Iowa, proves to be false. The
item was published in the Saturday
Herald of that city about three weeks
ago, and copied by the Tribune Her
husband, S. V. Troop, of Troops res!
taurant, wrote to the editor of the
Herald for particulars and received
the following reply:
"Ottumwa, Iowa, Sept. 1, 1905.
"'S.V. Troops-Yours received. Mrs.
Troop, who is a chambermaid in a
restaurant here, gave me the
item that Mrs. s. V. Troop
died Wednesday evening, Aug
ust %. On receipt of your letter I in
vestigated the death records and
found that no one by the name of
Troop had died in this city, and I
further find the said chambermaid il
Mrs. S. V. Troop, and instead of be.
ing dead she is very much alive. The
imposition is an outrage on you, my
self and your two little granddaugh-
tiers, who naturally have some love
for her. R. H. Moore
N"Mr. Troop his his two grarddaugh-
tiers were sorely afflicted by the sad
but false news. What purpose the
woman had in causing her own death
notice to be published is r.ystery,
unless she wanted to inf1ict sorrow
through spirit of revenge.
Mrs. Troop is a member of the Or
der Of Rebekahs of this city and they
decorated the hall in mourning for a
dead sister. and since learning the
truth, naturally feel sore and indig.
