health and strength and in fact got so
weak that it was necessary to call physi-
clan, who said that l had very bad case
OF liver trouble, and an liberated stomach:
the liberated stomach is what caused me
so much pain and my liver trouble caused
my constipation and severe headaches. l

eral months, but seemed to get no perma-
nent relief. My suffering grew worse and
none of the local doctors seemed to be
able to help me. | was advised to go to
Boston, where / consulted several spec
ialists; still, l continued to suffer and
constantly grew larger and was told it
was enlargement OF the liver. After be-
ing treated in Boston some time went to
Lowell, Mass, where also consulted sew
eral physicials, but as seemed to get no
better, came to Portland and went into
the hospital; the treatment at the hos
pital and the rest seemed to do me a little
good. but shortly was as bad off as ever,
so went to Lewiston and again consulted
a physician, but they all seemed to tell
me the same story - that ! had an en-
larged liver, a stomach trouble. kidney
trouble, together with vaiyular heart
trouble that at times would throw me into
spasms which would last so long that my
husband and neighbors thought would
never come out OF them, as | would be
perfectly unconscious and cold as though
was dead. l gradually grew worse and
kept bloating, as the doctors called it,

about four years ago, when one of Ban

BUSINESS IN PARIS
is AT A STANDSTILL
Effort Is to Be Made to Fix Up
Temporary Telephone
system

PARIS, Sept. 21.-Paris is practically
prostrated commercially today as a re-
suit of the fire that last night destroyed
the central telephone building.
In addition to the total interruption
of the telephone service between Paris
and the provinces and foreign points,
the department of posts announced this
afternoon that the flames had destroyed
a large number of the long distance
telegraph wires which were strung un-
der the telephone headquarters. Con-
sequently the telegraph service to Eng
part of France and the suburbs of Paris
is seriously affected and it was i'm
possible today to handle the business
of the department. The department is
making herculean endeayors to arrange
q temporary service, especially for the
stock market. the operation of which
is greatly hampered by the lack of COM
munication, as well as for the great
department stores, hospitals hotels,
and fire stations. 1t is trying also to
re- establish the lines with foreign
countries.
The partial paralysis of these essen
tial methods of communication is caus-
Ing great damage to the business ac-
tivitiess In France itself and between
France and foreign countries and the
resultant financial loss will be tremen-
dous. The 10000 local circuits burned
out unfortunately were located. in the
heart of the city and their destruction
teries of trade and commerce and
placed. a sudden demand upon vehfcular
transportation which the cabs and om-
