Women resid- ing in almost every city and town in the United States bear willing testl- mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It cures female ills, and creates radi- ant, buoyant female health. If you are i'll. for your own sake as we'll as those you love. give it a trial.

Indianapolis National Supply Com

 Jefferson County Property and
 Will Erect Large Saw Mill at
 HaywOod.
 Relative to the recent purchase of q large tract of land in this county, the Indianapolis National Supply Company has written letter to The Graphic in which an official of that company says:
 We have recently purchased the Porto Rico place at Sherrill, Ark, from Judge Robt. M. Foster, of St. Louis, Mo, and Lewis Sachs, of Jones' boro. Ark. This place was formerly owned by Morris Altheimer of your city. The place consists of 2000 acres part of which is cultivated in cotton, and the balance in oak, hickory. ash and gum timber.
 Tt is our intention to purchase il mill and set it on the place at once. We hope to begin operations there within the next three or four weeks. This land was purchased for the con- sideration of $75.00O and Is said to be one of the best tracts in your State. Tenants on the place are al- ready digging ditches and putting I'D additional houses on the ground so as fast as the timber is removed, the land can be cleared and put in cul- tivation."

"Isle of Spicc,-

The Isle of Spice" which is the offering at the Elks Theater, Wednes- day, January 13, was, during the New York, Chicago and Boston runs, aptly described by the press as q dream of color. The scene of the play Is laid on an island In the Japan sea, which gives ample opportunity for lavish scenic surroundings and which are depicted in all their Oriental splendor. AS a spectacle alone the production is said to be marvel. but aside from this there are many features to make 1t a notable achieve ment in the art of play producing. With its wealth of song hits, inter esting story, sweet singing and clev- CT dancing, 1t has enjoyed more liber- al patronage than almost any pro- duction of high class comedy at pres ent before the public.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Mrs. Wiggs of the Cappage Patch.' ;
 No play that has been presented an many seasons has made a more powerful appeal to the synp athies of the audience, and certainly none has proven more popular, than Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" which comes to the Elks Theater, January 16.
 The laughter and applause with which this piece has been greeted in every city visited this season seems to be contagious. The dear old Ken tmcky drama never went better than in this it's fifth season. the unctious Mrollery of the players giving three hours of unceasing and persistent happiness. As an entertainer. Mrs. Wiggs has no peer in her class. Of all women she is the dearest and funniest, the ideal philosopher and friend, at once broad beam of sun- shine mid lowly surroundings and a Denediction among all her associates. It is play which makes q universal appeal, fits every taste and every To- cality

sey. with his private secretary. who
have been spending a week at the
Cheyenne agency visiting the gov
errors son, returned last night. The
governor reports the discovery of a
crew of surveyors at work on Virgin
creek. No information could be ex-
tracted from the crew and there Is no
little curiosity aroused and specula-
lions made by people here who are
anxious for the time when more than
one railroad will pass through this
city. Since the Northern Pacific peo-
pie have recently let a contract for
$50 miles of track from Mandan, n. D..
south, and since the party of surveyors
are stalking their lines north from Vir-
gin creek, il is more than likely that
the crew is making the survey for the
Northern Pacific.
