Vegetable Compound has done for me
during this trying period. Complete
restoration to health means SO much
to me that for the sake of other suffer-
ing women l am willing to make my
trouble public SO you may publish

RED, Graniteville, vt.
No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and I'M
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such record
of cures as has Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing woman's ills such as inhamma-
ton, liberation, fibroid tumors, irreg-
ularities, periodic pains and nervous
prostration, and it is unequalled for
carrying women safely through the
period of change of life.
Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass,
invites all sick women to write
her for advice. Her advice is free,
and always helpful

LEFT GIRL TO
WE'D ANOTHER
Alexander Melsea Must Pay
$500 for Broken Promise.

According to the story of his mat
rtmoniaf escapades, Alexander Me-
iega, a clerk In the employ Of a To-
cal grocer, has been in particularly
hot water during the past few
months. This morning he had a
Judgment of 1900 rendered against
of promise charge made by one of his
former brides-to-be, and 1t is under
stood that he married his present
wife upon her having a capias upon
him while he was on the way to wed
another girl in New York.
Through the cross-examtnation OF
her attorney, H. w. Kehoe, Miss
IZupko, OF Park avenue, showed by
witnesses, that Melega had become
engaged to her, hat the banns had
been announced and February IA
1911. was set as the wedding day
When the wedding day arrived, II
was stated, Meelga was out Of town
and upon his return it developed thai
he had been married In his alb
sence. In the meantime Miss Zup-
ko had spent about $50 In getting
ready for her marriage, it was testi-
fed, and following the news of her
husband-to-be's wedding to another
she retained Attorney Kehoe to
bring suit against him for salve for
her wounded feelings.
The only defense that Melega put
up before Judge Beekman this
morning was that he was now mar
|ried and despite the fact that he had
been engaged to Miss zupko, he
could not marry her. The Judge
rendered Judgment for 5000 against
the defendant.
1t is said that while engaged te
Miss Zupko, Melega was engaged to
two other girls in New York. He
went out Of town on his wedding
day, 1t Is declared, to wed a girl In
New York, only to have a capias
erved on him by the third girl
whom he married.
Meiega acted as his own counsel
at the trial.

Tying to Raise 500.

Efforts are now being made TO collect
300 to help defray the expenses of de-
Tending Walter Rifenberg, o former To-
cal youth, who is accused of murder
in Ainsworth, Nebraska. The young
man, who is the son Of George A. Riff.
enberg, of 104 Broad street, this city,
is now in jail in Nebraska awaiting a
new trial, which he's been granted him
by the supreme court. Attorney Doug
las, who is defending him, believes him
innocent and if he can ecu sufficient
funds to defend him, declares he can
secure his freedom.
George R~ifenberg, the young mans
father, is now making every endeavof
to collect $780,, to make up the total
sum of 5000 required for his son 5 de
tense. He has already sent 5000, all

trial were overruled, and he was given
little opportunity to fight his cause, ac-
cording to the information received by
George A. Rifenberg in this city.

EXTRA SESSION
OF CONGRESS-
CONTINUED from page IL


When the senate pfogressiyes con-
scented to D vote on the Lorimer ease
they forced the laying OF the tariff COM
mission bill before the senate as the
unfinished business and obtained q
gentieman's agreement that there
would be no filibuster against the vote
on this measure. Developments show
that the gentleman's agreement was
not an ali embracing affair. 1t did
not include Senators Hepburn and
Hale on the Republican side and Sena-
tor Stone and some of his supporters
ON the Democratic side. All of these
are bitter opponents of the tariff COM
mittee and they will do everything
possible to accomplish Its defeat.
The result of the dilatory tactics was
that the senate disposed of only one of
the eleven appropriation bills confront
ing 1t.
1t was apparent that the insurgents
and most of the Republican regulars In
carrying out the compromise agree
ment were prepared to force a vote on
the tariff board.
Senator. Money offered an amend
ment to- the bin providing that the
board should be composed Of five
senators and five representatives. This
wal in accordance with the Demo
cratic idea that q tariff board. II Great
ed. should be made q creature Of ron
gress instead of a bureau under the
control of the president. The amend
ment was defeated.
Another effort TO amend the bill
was made by Senator Bailey. He OBJ
jected to the provision giving the
board power to subpoena witnesses
and to compel the production of books
and papers. 1t was defeated by a vote
of 81 to %.
