Mrs. Anna Potts

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

Deadly Flood OF Ammonia.

In New York City recently com
pressed ammonia escaping from Il leak
in refrigerating plant the size of n
leadpencI threw West Washington
market in Tenth avenue and CAM
WORT street into a panic, asphyNiated
about $500 chickens, killed fifteen
cats and five dogs and gave the crew
of the fire boat Mcclellan ii two
hours struggle. Trailing from the re
frigerator in the stall of Brown d
Bingham, beef dealers, the ammonia
spread itself along the alleyways on
the market. penetrating every nook
and Granny, driving stall owners,
clerks and typewriters before 1t.
1t spread over the floor to height
of five feet and rolled down the alleys
until every living thing which it en-
veloped was either dead or had fled or
been carried to the outer atmosphere

Thrown at Presidents Train.

Washington.-As President Roose'
velt's special train WAS passing
through North Philadelphia at 1880
Saturday evening, en- route TO Wash
ington, some unknown person hurled
a mason's plumb.bob through one OF
the windows The implement was of
iron and weighed about two and half
pounds. 1t fell at the feet of Major
Webb Hayes, a son of the late Pres
ident Hayes. who was passenger on
the train Fragments of broken glass
fell on Major Hayes. but he was in no
way injured The car was In the for
ward part of the train and might easily
have been taken for the President S
private car. Major Hayes was sitting
at the window A profile of him is not
unlike that of the President. No clue
to the thrower of the missile was OBJ
tained The President himself knew
nothing of the matter until nearly an
hour after it occurred.
Railroad officials are inclined to the
belief that the plumb-bob was thrown
by some boy. as incidents of similar
character have occurred before at
about the same time.

Isle of Pines colonists squeIched.

Washington.-In reply to letter
from Charles Raynard, secretary OF
the American Club of the Isle of Pines.
asking information in regard to the
necessary form of procedure to estab
lish a territorial form of government
for the island, Secretary of State
Root wrote;
There is no procedure by which you
and your associates can lawfully es-
tablish territorial government
in that island. The island is
lawfully subject to the control and gov
ernment of the republic of Cuba, and
you and your associates are bound to
render obedience to the laws of that
country so long as you remain in the
island. You are not likely to have any
greater power in the future. The
treaty now pending before the Senate,
if approved by that body. will relin'
quish all claim OF the United States TO
the Isle of Pines"

Vast Appropriation for Wagon Roads
in New York.

The people of New York having APP
proved the constitutional amendment
appropriating s50,0O0,000 for the con
struction of a system of good wagon
roads in that state, the contemplated
work will soon be begun. Little or no
delay will occur in the preparation of
plans, for all that has been gone
through. Before the amendment was
voted upon, the whole scheme of road
building was investigated and elabor-
ately worked out. This was true of
both financial and engineers details.
The people took no leap in the dark.
They were fully informed in regard to
the purpose of the proposed appropria-
tion and the manner in which it would
be expended.
One may picture the changes which
will be made in the interior of the
state, more especially in distinctly
rural communities, by the construction
of this gigantic road system. 1t will
not fall short of n revolution in some
respects; for even the great and
densely populated state of New York
has not yet outgrown the crude con
dition marked by poorly constructed
highways. where traffic by wagon is at
nearly I'LL times difficult, tedious and
expensive.
With s5O,OOO,00O much work can be
done and much good accomplished.
The people showed excellent judgment
in making the appropriation, which
will be returned to the commonwealth
many times over in reduced cost of
transportation and hence in larger re
turns received by men who produce
or deal in commodities transported by
wagon over country roads.-Denver

Are You Tired, Nervous
and SIeepIeSs ?

Nervousness and slccplessness are us
ually due to the fact that the nerves are
not fed on properly nourishtng blood:
they are starved nerves. DIR. Picrce's
Golden Medical Discovery makes pure,
rich blood, and thereby the nerves are
properly nourishcd and all the organs OF
the body are run as smoothly as machln-
cry which runs in oil. In this way you
feel clean, strong and strcnuous-you arc
toned up and invigorated, and you are
good for a whole lot OF physical or mental
work. Best OF all. the strength and in
crease in vitality and health are lasting.
The trouble with most tonics and med
icines which have large, booming sale
for n short time. is that they are largely
composed of alcohol holding the drugs in
solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red
blood corpuscles, and in the long run
greatly inj ures the system. One may feel
exhlara ted and be tier for the time being.

TWO Great Football Games.

closed in Denver with rival games in
adjoining parks. Each of the games
was we'll attended. though the one
having the attraction of an outside
eleven drew the larger crowd. Both
were alike one-sided the winning
eleven having so much better team
work and stronger players than the
losers that the games lost much in in

The Haskell Indians fell before the
University of Colorado at Broadway

The score was 80 to 0 in favor of
