More Than 200 Injured.

Accompanying the death lists are esti-
mates of the injured totaling more than
200.
coming up out Of the southwest early
Friday morning, just spring was usl-
cred in, the storm swept with startling
suddenness diagonalIy across the coun.
try from northern Texas to western
Pennsylvania and New York, bisectine
the Mississippi valley and moving north
eastward across the Ohio into the great
lake region.
Shifting winds of great violence, accom-.
panied in various sections by snow, sleel
and hail, characterized the storm, easily
the most destructive of the year and
rarely equaled in the extent of its SWEEP
and damage. Buildings toppled before
the blow in nearly a dozen states and
death lay all along in it's wake.

Property Loss Heavy.


The property loss was heavy all along
the storms track. Besides demolishins
or unrooffng buildings and Telling trees,
the high winds. rain. hail and sleet did
serious damage to early crops. according
to reports from some of the affected
sections.
Estimates of damage to property from
Indiana and Michigan alone aggregate
100000, about evenly divided between
the two states. Early reports of losses
ranging from $4,000 to 100000 or more
from sections of the storm region indicat-
ed that the total would reach large
figures.
Wires fell in all directions before the
storm. Not in many years has there
been such prostration of telegraph and
telephone service. Chicago was cut off
for hours from communication with
points east. Only by devious routes was
connection finally established. Last night
conditions had improved materially. but
1T will be several days before normal
service is restored. Railroad traffic was
seriously delayed in many districts,
where wire communication was crippled
and washouts occurred.

day l began to feel better. Have
now used five bottles, and am we'll.
and can do all OF my homework and
cooking by myself. In fact, feel
like a new woman.
I shall be only too glad to do any
thing l can to help praise the Cardui

For over half century Cardui has
