The storm approached from the

work of the wind was quickly done
and then followed heavy downpour
Of rain, accompanied by vivid light
ming and deep thunder Those who es-
capped injury were for the time panic
stricken, but finally rallied and set to
work to rescue the injured.
So violent was the tornado that
some residences were swept away
completely. Houses that remained
standing were converted into temper
airy hospitals and refugees and the peO-
pie by lantern-light, in pouring rain,

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children it ruins a child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostitution. ner-
vous dependency. 1.-The blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke You; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive to light and sound /;
pain in the ovaries, and especially

pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra
ton than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.

Mischievous Legislation Threatened.

LEGISLATION is threatenad in many
States during this coming winter for
the suppression of the so-called pat
ent' medicines. The success Of such
legislation would mean the abolition of
the home medicine chest and would
force persons, no matter how remote
their homes from physician, to call
In a doctor for every minor ailment.
The legislation as proposed would
mean frequent long delays awaiting
the arrival of physician, when a SIM

of the household would accomplish the
result desired, or at least give tempo

Having Nightly Drills.

The artillerymen stationed at Fort WASH
!ngton and Fort Hunt are having nightly
drills with the big search lights at the
forts, and the beams of light from the big
re1ectors can be seen shooting across the
sky. Every passing vessel on the river is
picked up by the search light and its rays
kept on 1t until the vessel is out Of range
Steamboat and tug boat masters who are
out on the river with their vessels at night
are complaining of this practice, and say
the light so blinds them in the pilot house
that they cannot see to steer. The master
of one of the local tugs stated to a Star
reporter yesterday afternoon that as he
was on his way down the river Thursday
night the rays of the search light at Fort
Washington were turned on his tug when
she was about Fort Foote, and were thrown
in the pilot house in his eyes so that he was
blinded. He not only could not see ahead,
but the glare was so strong that he could
not distinguish the characters on his COM
pass card. At last, after enduring the light
for fifteen minutes, for fear of collidng
with something or running his boat ashore,
he turned the tug around, and came back
to this city.
The throwing of the rays of searchlights
into a pilot house is deemed to be of suf-
ficient Importance to make 1t the subject of
a rule in the marine regulations, and the
master guilty of such an act is liable to
have his license taken away from him.
The matter, ii is stated, will be brought to
the attention of the army authorities
