The Court House

Mary Boyle has commenced suit in
common pleas court against her hus-
band, Patrick Boyle. asking Judgment
for alimony. They were married
Sept. 4, 1888. Eleven children were
born to them, seven of whom are un-
der the age of 16 years. She charges
her husband with habitual drunken
ness for more than three years, and
charges that during what she terms
in her petition as spells of intoXi-
cation" he comes home and beats
and abuses her. She recites the fact
that she had the plaintiff arrested
Friday on charge of non-support
and that he waived examination and
was bound over to the grand jury un-
der 800 bond which he has given.
She says that he is constantly
threatening to leave her and go to
parts unknown. She says that, with
: her large family, she cannot meet the
living expenses and responsibilities
alone.
According to the wife, Boyle has
money in the Knox County Savings
bank, and that he has money in the
C. & G. Cooper Co. She asks for an
order restraining Boyle from drawing
any OF these funds during pendency
OF this action. b. L. Sapp represents
the plaintiff.

AUGUSTUS LYON, Terre Hill, Pa.
1t is true that nature and woman's
work has produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
q remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is recognize ed
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds Of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health many of them openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and in some cases that it has saved them
from surgical operations.
