News Of the State.

Special to Times -Republican.
Lehigh, Nov. THE people Of this
town and vicinity are much interested
in the damage case now ON trial in the
district court at Fort Dodge in which
Frank Corey Is sueing the Webster
County Coal and Land Company for
$4,000, alleging that the defendant
has mined coai on his land for years
without paying him for the same. The
fact that the coal lands are located
here and that the suit Is for such a
large amount makes the suit doubly
interesting to the people Of Lehlgh.
The plaintiff and defendant owned
coal land adjoining at Lehigh and the
Defendant opening up mines on his
own property ran under the line and
into the property of / the plaintiff.
where they took out many thousands
OF tons of coal according to his claim.
He alleges that he warned them to
desist but that they kept on operating
on his land regardless of this. He
alleges that the amount of conl taken
is valued by him at $4,000, and asks
that the court give him Judgment on
the defendant company for that
amount.

DIES OF HER INJURIES.

Injured in Printing Press.

Sheldon, Ia, Nov. Miss Jennie
Garden, who was literally scalped by
having her ahadn. caught in the shaft
Ding of printing press few months
ago, died last night of her injuries.
Her case was remarkable one in that
she appeared to be recovering from
the injuries and the physicians felt
certain that the granting operations
would prove successful.
Yesterday morning the physician
was removing flesh from her body to
graft ON portions OF the head that had
not healed over. She suddenly coll
aapsed and did not recover from the
effects of the anaesthetics.
Hitherto the bulk of the flesh that
had been grated on her skull had been
given by friends. Owing to some OF
the places healing slowly, the physi-
clan thought that her own flesh would
graft better than the flesh Of a
stranger.
Her parents reside near this city.
She was one of the best known young
women in Sheldon.

From the view point of the average
man homework is very easy. The wife
is right at home. She is her own mis-
tress. She can sit down and rest any
time. She can even go to bed for nap
If she feels like it. She can order her
household affairs just to suit her own
convenience. If she doesn't feel equal
to doing work to-day, she can do it
tomorrow. That's the beautiful theory
of the average man.
Just suppose the Egyptian task-mas-
ters, when they made the required
daily tale of bricks tax the uttermost
of human strength, had said to the
toiling slaves, Won't hurry, take q
rest every now and then = only don't
forget that your tale of bricks must
be all right at night or else there'll be
trouble"
There's the fact. There are the
days duties to be got through, and the
women who can rest may not. The
woman, who, when she married, said,
Nov, I'll be my own MISTRESS" finds
herself slave to household cares and
duties.
And OIL how much that woman
needs rest sometimes. She brushes and
scrubs, and rolls pastry, her temples
throbbing, her back aching, her nerves
quivering under the stress of pain.
What she would give if she could just
creep upstairs and throw herself on the
bed in darkened room and rest.
Rest would temporarily relieve the
strain, doubtless, but it would be the
same story over again tomorrow. The
real need of weak, nervous women is
strength, and that need is fully met
and satisfied by DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women well. 1t re-
moves the causes of women's weak
ness, tranquilizes and invigorates the
nerves, encourages the appetite and
induces restful sleep: eFayorite Pre-
scription" is a positive cure for the
most complicated and obstinate cases
of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, pain
full menstruation, unnatural suppress
sions and irregularities, prolapsus or

gestion, inflammation and liberation

Mich. 81 cannot find language to ex-
