HENRY Vs. HOUSTON
ONE ALABAMA COUNTY ENTERS
 SUIT AGAINST ANOTHER.
Henry Seeking to Recover Money AL legged to Be Due 1t from Houston, and Case Will Be Fought
 Out at Dothnn.

Dothan. May 4-( Especial )-One Ala barna county is suing another in the Circuit Court here, and suing for real coin of the realm with vigor and de- termination. Able counsel is engaged on both sides and the case promises to be an interesting one, warmly con tested from start to finish.
 It seems that at the time the new county of Houston was created by ac- ton of the Legislature, it being at that time d part and portion of the county of Henry, the county of Henry owed debt, as counties usually do After the new county had made It's formal bow, it's repudiated parent claimed that the fiedgling owed and should pay part of the debt aforesaid This Houston County has refused to do. under the contention that 1t did not receive from Henry any of the money in the treas ury at the time of the separation, a part of which 1t claims 1t was entitled to. The sum sued for. several thousand dollars, adds to the interest of the case. which was called in the Circuit Court this morning before Judge Pearce. and continued It will come up for hear ing at the third or fourth week of the present session.
 A Busy Session.
 The present session of Houston Coun- ty Circuit Court Is one of the busiest on record here, and judge and jurors are engaged In trying to grind out the docket and get through. A large CO., terie of attorneys Is present from this and neighboring towns in Houston County. and the court room presents quite busy scene. The civil docket itself is unusually heavy and has not yet been completed. The criminal docket is also of extraordinary import ance this session and when 1t Is taken up will consume a great deal of time. Three important murder cases are to claim the attention of the court, one of them being that of Byron Trammell. postmaster of Dothan.

Going through the hospitals in our large cities one is surprised to find such . large proportion of the patientslying on those snow-white beds women and girls, who are either awaiting or recovering from serious operations. Why should this be the case? Sim ply because they have neglected them selves. Female troubles are certainly on the increase among the women of this country-they creep upon them unawares, but every one of those patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in that bearing-down feel ing, pain atleft or right of the abdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back dizziness, flatulency, dis placements of the organs or irregular ities. All of these symptoms are indi- cations of an unhealthy condition of the female organs, and If not needed the penalty has to be paid by a danger ous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag along until you are obliged to go to the hos pital and submit to an operation but remember that Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound has saved thousands of women from surgical operations.
 When women are troubled with ir- regular, suppressed or painful periods. weakness, displacement or alteration of the organs, that bearing-down feel ing, inflammation, backache, bloating tor fatulency), general debility. indi- gestion, and nervous prostration, or are beset with such symptoms as dizziness, lassitude, excitability. irritability, ner- vousness, sleeplessness. melancholy, all-gone" and want-to-be-left- alone" feelings, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy.

The following letters cannot fall to bring hope to despairing women.
 Miss Ruby Mushrush, of East Chicago, Ind. writes:
 Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
 "Ihave beena great sufferer with irregular periods and female trouble, and about three months ago the doctor, after using the X-Ray on me, said had an abcess and would have to have an operation. My mother wanted me to try Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound as last resort, and 1t not only saved me from an operation but made me en- tirely well"
 Mrs. Alice Berryhill. of s13 Boycs Street, Chattanooga, Tenn, writes; Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 "Three years ago life looked dark tome. I had alteration and inflammation of the female organs and was in serious condition.
 "My health was completely broken down and the doctor told me that if was not op. erated upon would die within six months. I told him I would have no operation but would try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. He tried to influence me againss it but sent for the medicine that same day and began to use it faithfully. Within i've days felt relief but was not entirely cured until I used it for some time.
 Your medicine is certainly fine. I have induced several friends and neighbors to take 1t and know more than dozen who had female troubles and who to-day are as well and strong as am from using your Vegep table Compound"
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Cous pound at once repoves such troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best.
 Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia B. Pinkham. invites all sick wo. men to write her for advice. Her advice and medicine have restored thousands to health. Address, Lynn, Mass. cund Succeeds Where Others Fan
