YOUNG WIFE
SAVED FROM
HOSPITAL
;l!s How Sick She Wa And
What Saved Her From
An Operation.
Jpper Rhndu ky,Ohio. —" Three years
Zz ju 1 wan married and went to house-
keeping. I was not
feeling well and
could hardly drag
myself along. I had
such tired feelings,
my back ached, my
sides ached, I had
bladder trouble aw-
fully bad, and I could
not eat or sleep. 1 had
headaches, too, and
became almost a ner-
vous wreck. My doc-
tor told me to go to a hospital. 1 did
not like that idea very well, so, when I
saw your advertisement in a paper, I
wrote to you for advice, and have done as
you told me. I have taken Lydia G.
Pinkham's Vegetnble Compound and
Liver Pills, ami now I have my health.
" If sick and i.iling women would only
know enough to take your medicine, they
would get relief." Mrs. Bknj. H.Stans-
bkky, Route ii, Box IK, Upper Sandusky,
Ohio.
If you have mysterious pains, irregu-
larity, backache, extreme nervousness,
inflammation, ulceration or displace-
ment, don't wait too long, hut try Lyciia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound now.
For thirty years l.ydia E. Pinkham's
Veg etahle Compound, made from roots
and herbs, hitM been the standard remedy
for female ills, and such unquestionable
testimony as the above proves the value
of this famous remedy and should give
every one confidence.
MTTLE FOUGHT NEAR THE BORDER
BULLETS FROM COMBATANTH
FELL ON TEXAS SOIL
The Federals Retake the Town of Jo-
jutla—Federal* Surround Place
and Use Artillery.
I.angtry, Tex. — llorder guards in the
service of the Madero government
were ambushed by about fifty scout-
ing rebels fro^i General Orozco's
forces opposite I.angtry, at the mouth
of the Horn Canyon, early Tuesday
and nearly a score were killed in the
conflict.
The fight began in plain sight of
I.angtry and bullets from the combat-
ants fell on Texas soil, one shot shat-
tering a window on the south side of
town and others striking outhoutes
in the same section.
The Mexican federal guard was com
posed of ten mounted men, all attach-
ed to the customs secret service. As
this party neared the mouth of the
canyon the rebels opened fire and
one guard fell at the first volley. The
guards then made for the Texas line,
halted at a point where the land is
covered with boulders, affording good .
protection, and replied to the fire of j
the insurrectos.
Federals Retake Jojutla.
Mexico City.—-Federal troops recap j
lured the important commercial town
of Jojutla, Morelos, taken two days j
ago by a big force of Zapatistas, ac- |
cording to reports issued at the de j
partment of the Interior. The federals :
surrounded the place and used ar j
tillery with deadly effect. Five bun '
died Zapatistas were estimated to j
have been killed, while the federal
loss was placed at three officers and
forty men in killed and wounded.
Alfonso Barrera Ziimbrano, a nephew
of the president, who was In com-
mand of a corps of rurales, was shot
through the chest and died shortly
after in Cuernavaca.
BACKACHE IS
DISCOURAGING
Until You Get
After The Cause
Nothing more dis-
couraging than a
constant backache.
Lame when you
awake. Pains pierce
you when you bend
or lift It's hard to
work, or to rest.
You sleep poorly
and next day is the
same old story.
That backache In-
dicates bad kidneys
and calls for some
good kidney remedy.
None so well rec-
ommended a si loan's
Kidney Pills. Grate-
ful testimony is
convincing proof.
Here's Another
Typical Case-
Mrs. I). K. Jeffers, Colfax, Wash.,
says: "For two weeks I had to be
propped up In bed and I lost 60
pounds in weight. I was in a terri-
ble condition, In fact, 1 came very
near dying. As a last resort I be-
ran UBlng Doan's Kidney Pills.
Since then I have gained back my
lost weight and feel wonderfully
Improved."

DOAN'S
Innocent Answer of Quiet Little Wife
Cot Him Started on Train
of Thought.
The husband end wife were on their
way to the theater, when the husband
began kicking because his wife took
such a long time dressing
"What delayed you this time?" he
growled
"Seeing the children to bed," she re-
■ponded, quietly.
"What's the nurse for?" snapped
the man
"The nurse is for our convenience—
yours ami mine, especially mine," she
answered "But the boy certainly takes
after you. He asked the same kind of
a fool question Just as I was kissing
him good night."
"Fool question, eh? Well, what was
It?"
"I asked him If he had said his pray
ers. And he said no. And I asked
him If he didn't want Ood to take care
of him during the night. He answer
od: 'What's the nurse for?'"
For the remainder of the way the
man pondered on this answer.

rash and was all over baby's body,
head and face, at different times. It
Irritated, and he would scratch it vlth
all his might. The consequence was
It developed Into sores, and we were
afraid it would leavo nnsty scars on
his face.
"When we reached England we took
baby to another doctor, who said his
condition was due to change of food
and climate, and gave more medicine.
The rash got no belter, and It used to
itch and burn at night so bad that the
child could not sleep. He wns com-
pletely covered with it at dlffaient.

mother advised us to try Cuflciira

about nine months the places disap-
peared. There are not any scars, or
other kind of disfigurement, and baby
Is completely cured by the Cutlcura

The winter afternoon was like June,
and, taking lea under ii palm on the
lawn of the Royal Polnciana at Palm

"This morning 1 photographed an
