WOMAN'S ILLS
MAKE UNHAPPY HOMES,

There is no question but what the
ills of women conspire against domes-
tic harmony. The husband cannot I'M
derstand these troubles and the ply
stefan find it hard to cure them;
therefore the overworked wife and
mother continues to drag around day
in and day out with headaches and
backache, fretful and nervous.
Such women should be guided by the
experience of women whose letters we
are continually publishing in this pa
per. Many of them declare that they
have been restored to helath, strength
and consequent happiness by Lydia E
Pinkham's Vegetamble Compound af-
ter doctors and all other medicines
had failed to help them. 1t will surely
pay women who suffer from such all
ments to try it,

THREE REPORTED IN CUSTODY OVER
 FAMILY M|X-UP
Difficulty Arises Over Divorce Proceedings and Ends With Three Being Held, Ac-
 cording to Reports

Gadsden. July 25.-1SreciaD.- .-One lawyer and deputy sheriff are in Jail in Calhoun county as the re- suit of mixing into family troubles according to adices received in this city. A report is to the effect that the husband of the woman is also in custody on warrants sworn out in this county and sent to Calhoun county for service.
 Some three months ago Mrs. Charlie Hindeman near the Calhoun county line brought divorce proceed ings against her husband, alleging cruelty and at the time suit was brought returned to her fathers home, c. N. McClung, who lived in the same part of the county. Soon after the suit was brought peace warrants were sworn out for the wo- mans father and other members of the family who were interested in the case. When they were served it is alleged that the husband in company with several other men, presumably relatives of his, went to the home of her father and took her and an infant child and carried them into Georgia near Cedartown.
 Being Afistrented.
 Soon after this happened the father received a letter from her stating that she was being mistreated and for him to come for her. He went to their home and during the evening had supper with them ard after sup per told the girl that he wished to talk with her. This was said in the presence of her husband and Hinde- man, 1t is stated, drew a revolver and shot at Mir. McClung, but the weapon was struck upward as the shot was fired and only a minor scalp wound was inflicted. Before the weapon could be fired again it was wrested from him.
 This happened a few weeks ago and the woman was returned to the home of her father.
 Called at Home
 Last Sunday night some one called at the house of the McClungs, say ing they were in a car on the road and had been stuck and asked for light to see how to get out of

bridge across the Cahaba river will be used for the highway bridge at that point. s. R. Batson, member of the highway commission for the Ninth district made the fight for the new route and won every mem Der of the highway commission to his views. The original suggestion was that the railroad right Of way be utilized from Pelham to Birming ham, thus eliminating Besseme- from the route.
 Some Object
 Some members of the commission thought the routing of the route so near Bessemer was unfair since Bes- semer is a county seat and under the law is entitled to be connected with other county seats. Commits sioner Batson agreed to the change In the plans and the elimination of the railroad right of way at Park wood
 By going the Bessemer route the state and federal governments will save about seven miles of paving, which will represent about s3s0.000 in cash, based on present prices for pay ing. The Bessemer route will be three or four miles farther than the present route across the mountains, DuN tie ShNluB III tlill6 Dy NnS elInlna- tion of mountains will make up the In distance.
 The straightening of the highway In Shelby and Chiffon counties also will eliminate three or more miles. The highway commission decided to continue to maintain the highway across the mountains, but plans for the paving of the mountain route will become secondary to the plans for the of the highway by way of Bessemsr.
 Commissioner Batson also won his fight for the retention of the Bir- Ashville route by way of rrussville. The commission, by a vote of 10 to 2, decided not to accept the suggestion for the routing of this -oad by way of Chalkville. D. c. Ball. president of the board of revenue of Jefferson county. appealed for the -halkville route, while representa- ives of the Young Mems Christian association also asked for the Chalk rille route because the Young Mems Christian Assoeiation,s camp is To- ,ated on 1t. However, Commissioner 3atson urged the Trussville route and won.

 Just before the exhibitions were to start, Dempseys managers were handed telegram from the boxing commission, advising that under the law Dempsey would be permitted to meet but one opponent and the bout should also be in accordance with the law, according to decision.
 Darcy, light heavyweight, was selected and Dempsey performed, little livelier perhaps. than he had intended. The champion received the decision.
