he was surprised that had continued

I was confined tor my bed for nearly
two months, the doctor coming every
day for the first few weeks, but i did not
improve to amount to anything. AL
together I was sick for nearly two
years. I was as weak as rag, had

-MrJ. Hzes/erTurry

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children; it ruins q 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 prostration, ner-
vous dependency, 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
easily affected, so that one minute you
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 abdominal region. and
between the shoulders bearing-down
pains; nervous dyspepsia and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in a 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 f. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compounds; thousands and thou
sands of women can testify to this fact.

hesitancy in acknowledging their
guilt that they were drunk, and the
court imposed a fine of SIS each on
Ward and Keefe and $40 on Howard.
They each paid their..fne without a
grumble and went on their way re-
joicing.
The ase Of Engle was laid over for

SANG THROUGH A STORM
Miss Merle Tillotson, of This City,
Kept a Crowd From Stamped

Down at tie C%hautauqua at Tip
ton. Iowa, last Friday, a terrible
storm wrecked the tent in which the
exercises ere being held. While
the storm was in progress the Elsie
Smith Concert Co. was giving an en-
t%ertainment, and the storm reached
its height while Miss Merle 'Tillot-
0 was singing her solo. and to her
rare presence Of mind is due the fact
that the lives OF many people we're
doubtlessly saved, for the crowd
commenced to stampede when the
storm was so fierce, and amidst it
all the brave gill held her place on
the platform and sang with her
whole heart, Notwithstanding the
imminent danger in which she was
placed. a special dispatch from
Upton makes the following reference
to the incident:
Upton, Iowa, June 30.-Undismay-
ed though a terrific wind storm had
blown down a portion of the big ten
at the Chautauqua grounds last
night, Miss Merle 1illotson, a con-
tralto with the Slaytop Lyceum
company here, continued singing
until the panic stricken crowd be
came Quoted enough to hurry from

was blown to the ground, but the
audience of 1900 escaped without
fatality. Miss Tillotson IS from Des

BOUGHT BEckwl1n BLOCK
E. Morris, of Western National
Bank, Made Big Purchase of
Business Property.

There have been moreor less trans
fels OF business properties on Main
street this spring and summer that
Lave run up into good figures. The
latest investment i'm business property
On Main street VISA that of Mr.. S. d.
Morris. president of the Western
National tank, who late Friday
afternoon completed the purchase of
the two buildings and property
owned by Louis Reckwith on the
corner of Main street and Third
Avenue west. These properties are
occupied bv G w. ellis on the
corner, by &. G.. Rathbun in the
loom adjoining and upstairs by office
tenants.
1t is understood that the amount
OF money involved in the transaction
was about S22, 600. in which. MIR.
Beckwith received a satisfactory
price for d building that has been
a good source OF revenue ever since
he owned it. Mr.. Morris bought the
property for tue ultimate purpose OF
Inaking a permanent home for the
Western National hank. which is
now occupying leased quarters in
The Widmann hotel. and it will give
the institution a much better loca-
tion than it has had since it's incep-
ton.
1t IS the intention to remodel the
buildings to some extent and equip
it with a heating plant, but what as
to details Nh. Morris is unable to
state as yet. A modern front will
be placed In the building and it will
he made up-to-date in every partic-
ular. The bank will occupy the
north building and it will nave a
location that eau hardly he eXcelled
in the city. Under the present
circumstances it is impossible to say
how SOON the bank will be able to
get into its new QUARTERS. but the
work will be pushed with all possible
speed.
When Messrs. Morris and LOOMS
came to Mitchell in January and
bought the Western National, in
which they invested d goodly sum of
money, they expressed a strong faith
in Mitchell as q business center, and
this was accumulated by the further
purchase OF residence property. AS
even a stronger demonstration of
their faith in Mitchell the purchase
of the Beckwjth block only empha-
sizes their first impressions of the
city. Since they have taken charge
of the bank its business has steadily
increased. and it has been built up
from the knowledge that has gained
currency concerning the conserva-
tiveness, the goou business ability
and the close application of the
officials to the interests Of their
patrons. The Western National
officers are to lie congratulated on
securing such an important location
for their future growth. AND it re-
|QuiIed some nerve to make q venture
of this character but the gentlemen
feel that the outlook for the growth
and development OF Mitchell fully
