LYDIA E. PINKHAM

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 ld-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 battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years In
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and etfica-
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. St.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
"Complete restoration to health
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years 1 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 suffered, and at times l
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
1 followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Mutf,
twill do for other suffering women.

Big Blaze.

Tuesday night a little after mid
night the fire whistle shrieked every
body ont OF bed with a jump and the
cause of the alarm was easy to find.
The northern part of town was cover
ed with a mountain of smoke through
which great pillars of fire leaped with
demonic glee, and thousands Of burn
ing embers began to fly but the hot
atmospheric current was so strong
and the embers went so high that
they fell fireless over half the city.
The barn was probably the largest in
the county and contained between
one and two hundred tons of bailed
hay and about 30 tons of loose hay.
The blaze was 100 feet from north to
south and at times made a pillar Of
fire, 200 feet high. The fremen could
do nothing. All the hose the city
owns could not reach the nearest n.y.
drant although the big barn is just
on the edge of town, Firemen cussed
a little and people wondered why a
new hydrant is not placed to afford
protection to the fine dwellings up
Dakota Avenue. Judge Kennedy
was absent in Mitchell and details as
to loss and insurance can not be OBJ
tanned until his return.

The Monday Night Storm.

A magnificent electric storm passed
over Canton early Tuesday morning.
The lightning and thunder was con-
tinuous for an hour or more and many
nervous people were alarmed. In the
midst of the. storm the fire whistle
shrieked out it's dread alarm and peo-
pie jumped awaiting the ward signal
which came with surprising speed
The third ward was given and every.
body gazed out through streaks OF
flashing brilliancy and black gloom tc
note the sign in the sky. Between
the brilliant flashes n could see the
red glare and then many jumped fol
their clothing.
The cause OF the alarm was the
burning of the stable belonging tc
Ole Sigrud, chief of the fire depart
ment. His horses and wagon were
saved but nearly everything else was
destroyed. Insured for 1925, but his
loss Is over $500.
/. While the barn was blazing a hay
stack on the Ole Thompson place
was set on fire by another bolt and
the hay burned.
A ten ton hay stack on the Jens
Jensen farm in Dayton was destroyed
by fire set by a bolt of lightning, and
