A KENTUCKY WOMAN
How She Gained Fifteen Pounds in
Weight and Became We'll by Taking
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Women at forty, or Whereabouts, have
their future i'll their own hands. There
will be change for the better or worse,
for the better If the system is purified by
such tonic as DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. ID. @. Wedding, Of Hartford, KY,
writes as follows concerning the diff
culties which afflicted her:
81 was seriously i'll and was confined
to my bed for six or eight months i'll all,
during two years. L had chills, fever,
rheumatism. My stomach seemed al
ways too full, my kidneys did not act
freely, my liver was inactive, my heart
beat was very weak and had dizziness
or swimming i'll my head and nervous
troubles.
II under the treatment Of several
different physicians but they all failed
to do me any good. After suffering for
two years I learned from an Arkansas
friend about the merits of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and decided that l would
try them. The very first box / took
made me feel better and when l had
taken four boxes more / was entirely we'll,
weighed fifteen pounds more than when
I began, resumed my household duties,
and have since continued III the best OF
health. l have recommended DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills to many people on &C
count of what they did for me, and feel
that cannot praise them too strongly"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills restored Mrs.
Wedding to health because they actually
make new blood and when the blood is
in full vigor every function of the body
is restored, because the blood carries to
every organ, every muscle, every nerve,
the necessary nourishment. Any woman
who is interested i'll the cure of Mrs. We'd
ding will want our book, "Plain Talks to
Women" which is free on request.
All druggists sell DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, or they will be sent by mail post
paid, OH receipt of price, 80 cents per box,
six boxes for So 80, by the DIR. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, NY.

Crippled Girl Deserted at kenosha
After Hospital Romance.
The sad ending of a romance was
brought to light at Kenosha when Mrs.
Frances Booker appealed to the Ke-
nosha police for aid, declaring that
while a bride of month her husband
had deserted her and left her penn1-
less among strangers. Mrs. Booker is
cripple, having recently suffered
from fractured leg. She told the po-

friends for many years, but that some
years ago they drifted apart and she
had not heard from him until last

ALL RECORDS ARE BROKEN.
Attendance at University Far Beyond
Previous Years.

Attendance at University Far Beyond
Previous Years.
The number of students attending
the University of Wisconsin this year
will beat all records, especially that
established last year, which saw the
greatest registration in the history OF
the institution Figures obtained on
the preliminary registration at the
Badger institution show that there are
now registered 1913 more students
than at the same time a year ago.
when the records were being put by
the boards by the influx of new
students.
The gain in all departments is sub
stantial. An unusually large number
of students has registered in the
junior and senior class of both the
hill and engineering schools, with adj
vanced standings from other 1nst1tu-
tions. The indications are now that
the total enrolment of the year should
run over $500 students, as compared
with 3,571 for the entire year-both
semesters-last year.
Of the gain of 1903 the largest in any
one department is in the engineering
school, which shows an increase OF A
students over the number last year,
the total being 1853. The largest actu-
al gain in numbers, not propOrtionate-
ly, is in the college of letters and
science, with 81, or a total OF 1,372
students on the list so far. Gains are
also shown in the colleges of pharm-
acy and of agriculture. The students
are still applying for admission to the
university in large numbers and the
increase is expected to grow.
The authorities are much pleased at
the situation. It was freely predicted
that the change in the athletic system
would be a black eye for the institu-
ton and that there would be a de-
crease in the number of students TAX
ing work. Such has so far proven to
be far from the case, however. All
women students registering for the
first time this year are ordered to re-
port to Mrs. Woodward, adviser of
women This one of the new things
at the university.-W.

FIND DlPHTHERIA IN sTODDARD.
Village Near La Crosse Has Several
Gases of Disease.

The village Of Stoddard, located on
the Burlington twelve miles south OF
La Crosse, is experiencing a serious
diphtheria epidemic. The disease was
first discovered last week, but since
that time new cases have been found
and the matter has been reported to
the state board of health. DIR. F. G.
Suffer, a member of the state board,
made a visit to the village, and after
careful investigation ordered all
places in town where the disease had
appeared to be placed under Quaran-
tine. Every effort is being made to
prevent a spread, and with the assls-
lance of the state board it is thought
the disease may be stamped out. Sew
eral deaths have occurred up to date.

WEALTH UNDER WATER.
Washburn SaWnIl Will Clean Up
About $4,000 From "Deadheads."

Wsshburn SaWmil Will Clean Up
About $4,000 From "Deadheads."
Figuring lumber at an average rate
of $25 per thousand, the Edward Hines
Lumber company of Washburn will
clean up about $4,000 on the logs that
are being taken from the bottom OF
their mill pond, as the latest estimate
Of the amount of logs on the bottom
of the lake is about 100000 feet.
Since the fire of the company, in
which their large mill was destroyed
the company has had crew of men
employed in taking up the dead
heads" During the twenty years that
the mill has been in operation many
logs have gone to the bottom, where
they have remained until now. Logs
were too plentiful in the early days to
bother with those that went to the bot
tom.
Most of the logs that are being raised
are Of the finest quality of white pine
and Norway and are as sound as a dol
lar, and will command a high price
when placed upon the market. The
bottom of the mill pond is covered
with logs three to six feet deep, and
they are being raised in such numbers
that the company has erected another
small mill here with a capacity of TO-,
900 feet per day which it will keep
running night and day until the stock
is sawed.
At the time the Hines people bought
the mill and holdings from the Bige-
low people, about four years ago, these
logs on the bottom we're not thought
of, so that it is a regular little Kin
dixie for the Chicago concern.-W.

Waters by the Stream to Be Harness

The big deal for water power on the
Peshtigo river has been closed, F. H.
Josslyn. representing himself and
another Oshkosh capitalist, has pur-
chased the powers at High Falls and
Johnson's Falls on the PeshtigO. They
are two Of the best on that stream and
will develop together about 1000
horsepower. The consideration was
$4,000. The negotiations were con-
Quoted by Mr.. Josslyn and Elmer
Grimmer for the local interests. Theo-
dore Kersten Of Crivitz is one Of the
interested parties. The powers are to
be developed some time during the
coming year, and it is believed will III
timately be brought into connection
with Green Bay, Marinette and Me-
nominee by transmission. The de-
velopment will require large outlay
of money, probably over 100000, and
an expenditure of $1,000 a mile will be
required to bring it to Marinette. The
transmission of the rover to the two
cities and its utilization by factories
is what the pei Die of Marinette desire
to see.

RECEIVERS MIND AFTER YEARS.
Former Racine County Tramp Re
stored to Rich Parents.


After wandering around the coun-
try fourteen years, his mind blank,
George Bogart, 33 years old, has been
restored to his father, a wealthy
ranchman of Oklahoma City. When
Bogart was 10 years old he resided
with his parents in Michigan city.
One day, fourteen years ago, following
severe sickness, his mind became
blank so far as remembering MS
father. mother and home town were
concerned and he suddenly disap-
peared. Search was made for years,
but he could not be found and was
given up for dead.
The father purchased land in Okla
homa and became a rich man. Seven
years ago young Bogart appeared at
the village of Union Grove, a typical
vagabond and tramp. Sometimes he
worked on farms, did ODD jobs about
the village saloons and boarding
houses, sleeping in barns, outhouses
and haystacks In time he became
regular nuisance and was sent to the
poorhouse, but could not be kept in
that institution, running away. AL
though simple-minded when he first
appeared, his memcTy recently came
back to him and he recOllected that
he lived in Michigan. He gave the
name of the town. Harry Meredith, a
village youth, addressed a letter to
the town making Inquiries. An an
swer came from a brother of Bogart,
who told of his brothers strange dis
appearance and advised the Union
Grove people to send him to Michigan.
He was taken to Milwaukee, shipped
across the lake and the brother met
and readily recognized him. He could
tell little of his ramblings the first
seven years, except that he knew he
was in Buffalo, N. Wv.

Vain Appeal.

When President Hadley of Yale was
professor of political science there a
student once offered him a poor ex-
cuse for a bad examination paper.
Prof. Hadley listened to the excuse
in silence. Then he said, with grim
smile:
THAT excuse is about as poor as the
one a criminal lawyer offered for his
client in a case that had gone hard
with him.
Gentlemen Of the jury cried this
lawyer, eloquently, remember that
my client is hard of hearing, and
that, therefore, the voice of conscience
appeals to him in vain!'"
