Nature and woman's work com- bined have produced the grandest remedy for Woman's ills that the world has ever known.
 In the good fashioned days of our grandmothers they relied upon the roots and herbs of the field to cure disease and mitigate suffering.
 The Indians on our Western Plains to-day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that baffle the most skilled physicians who have spent years in the study of drugs.
 From the roots and herbs of the field Lydia E. Plnkham more than thirty years ago gave to the women of the world d remedy for their pe- culiar ills, more potent and etfica- eiOus than any combination of drugs.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the standard remedy for WoSsA1A .-..,.
 Mrs. Bertha Mutf, of 515 NC. St., Louisiana, Mo, writes:
 ' Complete restoration to health means 50 much to me that for the sake of other suffering women I am willing to make my troubles public.
 For twelve years had been suffer- ing with the worst forms of female ills. During that time had eleven different physicians without help. No tongue can tell what I suffered, and at times could hardly walk. About two years ago I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice. I followed it, and can truly say that Lydia F. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re- stored health and strength. It is worth mountains of gold to suffering women
 What Lydia E. Pinkham's Nege- table Compound did for Mrs. Mutf, it will do for other suffering women.

CASE
IS TOLD ABOUT
InteIIigencer's Falsehoods Are
Shown Up by One on
the Scene.

BELINGToN, Sept. 1, (special)-
The wheeling Intelligencer OF last
Saturday contained an artitle en-
titled How Swisher Won That Vic
tory in Barbour County" which for
Inaccuracies and falsehoods could not
be 'beaten, in fact, it is right along
the line that the Intelligencer has
been driving for months. That paper
is as untruthful as it is false and
seemingly utterly devoid of principle.
We wish to call the attention of tie
public to one or two false statements
that is contained therein.
To start with, Mr.. Scherr said in
this town that Charley Teter and
Judge Dayton had promised him this
county and for him to stay out of
1t. and he. further said that had he
not come into it he would not have
gotten anything. Now the fact that
these two men essayed to give the
county to Scherr was enough to turn
the stomach of the free voters of Bar
bour county. These two men did not
want a primary in the county as was
evidenced from their promise to Mr..
Scherr. Possibly Teter intended to
get the delegates like he got them
four years ago.
He could not coral enough foreign
ers to work the same gag he worked
four years ago. AS soon as the pri-
mary method was decided upon then
Teter began to buck and pull back
for he knew that in Barbour county
that he would not stand any show
delivering the county. This same
Teter was challenger at the court
house and remained in the voting
place all day long and helped to
count the votes and say every ticket
that was voted and how every one
was marked. Now, If 81 men swore
they voted for Scherr and only So
were counted, then Tster must hap
been traitor to the cause ne pro-
fessed to represent for being in posi-
ton to see and help hold the election.
he is either base traitor or the So
called afIidavits are false. There is
no other conclusion which can be
drawn.
We do not know of place where q
challenger was refused where they
wanted to serve.
AS to the Berryberg vote it is a
we'll known fact that not more than
half of their votes were out and hence
there could be nothing crooked. The
author of the statement to the Intel
ligencer has been crooked SO long
that he naturally thinks everybody
else is crooked.
The Barbour county primary VISA
held by reputable citizens and men
who regarded their cath as above any
choice they may have had for the can
didates aspiring to Office.

also by the name of Edwards about
six weeks ago. learned this through
a lady in Charleston who had be-

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, VT,
Sept. with clearly defined issues,
popular candidates, an unusually
large number of minor contests and
good weather conditions and with the
entire country looking on, there was
every inducement for the voters of
Vermont to go to the polls today for
the annual state election.
Candidates were voted for for gov

leaders on the Republican and Demo.
cratic tickets being Lieutenant Cover
nor Prouty and Former Mayor Burke,
of Burlington, with Prouty's election

was the size of the plurality for the
Republicans.

siderable bearing on the conduct of
the national campaign.

Judging from present indications
the style of clinging gowns will con-
tinue in favor during the fall and
the winter. Directoire and princess
styles are much shown. and Drecoll
and Redfern are combining both with
good effect. A prominent feature Of
many such dresses is black and gold
embroidery. and there are many gowns
of black gauze. made up over a soft
Hght-colored satin.
This sometimes gives the effect of the
shaded petals of a deeply colored rose
or some exotic flower. Many dresses,
too are embroidered with gold. and gold
