WOMAN REFUSES
OPERATION
Tells How She Was Saved
Kv Talcing Lvdia EL Pink
ham's Vegetable
Compound.
Logansport, Ind.? "My baby was
over a year old and I bloated till I was
a burden to myself.
I suffered from fe
male trouble so I
could not stand on
my feet and I^felt
like millions of
needles were prick
ing me all over. At
last my doctor told
me that all that
would save me was
an operation, but
this I refused. I
told my husband to get me a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and I would try it before I would
submit to any operation. He did so and
I improved right along. I am now doing
all my work and feeling fine.
"I hope other suffering women will try
your Compound. I will recommend it
to all I know."?Mrs. Daniel D. B.
Davis, 110 Franklin St, Logansport, IncL
Since we guarantee that all testimo
nials which we publish are genuine, is it
not fair to suppose that if Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has the
virtue to help these women it will help
any other woman who is suffering in a
like manner?
If you are ill do not drag along until
an operation is necessary, but at once
take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound.

of the state board of equalization and
the state board of assessors. The work
of assessing all property in the state
would come under this commission.
The comptroller general asks that
the general assembly provide for sub

day exercises this year by the various

this county.
Wants Treasurers Offics Repaired.
S. T. Carter, state treasurer, has
made the following recommendation
to the legislature: "The office should
be supplied with steel fireproof fit
tings for the protection of the valu
able books and records of the depart
ment. Some of tbe cases now in use
are made of rich pine, and would be
good fuel for flames, should fire break
out in the office. Among the records
are many, any one of which is of
more value to the state than would
be the cost of equipping the office
with steel fireproof fittings."

Washington.?John Lind's frequent

hints as to what type of Provisional
President would meet with approval
at the Whilte House.
So far as officials here are advised,
the vicissitudes which preceded the
Madero revolt and followed the death
of that leader have not detracted from
the high standard of Francisco de la
Barre, at present Minister to France,
attained when President Diaz was
forced to abdicate. Senor de lo Barra
then was brought forward as the
leader who could placate all factions
pending a new election. Some diplo
mats here believe de la Barra again
could compose the situation in Mexi

Some uneasiness was occasioned at

A DIET OF ONIONS.
This much abused vegetable, which
annot conceal Its presence because
>i its oaornerousness, is oue ui um
most valuable vegetables. Nature
provides for her children by sending
an abundance of these little tender
green stalks to ub early in the spring,
and in the fall stocks our cellars with
them for the winter using. There is
no salad, except perhaps a fruit, that
is not improved by the appetizing zest
of a bit of onion or onion juice.
When the appetite becomes keener
in the cold wintry days, care niust be
taken not to over-eat If onions are
served twice a week at least the sys
tem is in good tone to withstand any
drain of disease or extra work, for 1
they are valuable scavengers in the
system.
A disordered system will result In a
cold, which is often directly caused
by over-eating. We cannot expect the
department of the interior to go on
overworking year In and year out
If we cut our food in half and multi
ply our exercise by two In the open
air, we would have less of colds, grip
and nnenmonia.
Onions With Cheese.?This is a dish
especially good for a cold night sup
per. Cook sufficient onions for the
number to partake; drain them and
place a layer of the cooked onion in
a buttered baking dish, pour over
a half cup of rich White sauce,
sprinkle generously with cheese, and
repeat with another layer of the
onions, white sauce and cheese. Put
into the oven and serve when well
heated through. <
Onions Stuffed With 9ausage.?This
1b a most elegant dish, which may be
used for company. Take the mild
Spanish or Bermuda onion, a half
dozen or more, peel and parboil until
tender enough to scoop out a center;
chop the part taken out and mix with
well seasoned sausage, and fill the
centers. Make a sauce of chicken
etock, if you have it, if not use buttfer
and water. Pat the onions into a >
baking dish and bake, basting occa- [
eionally until thoroughly . tender.
Sprinkle with buttered crumbs, and
when they are brown serve from the
baking dish.
8tuffed Tomatoes. ? Tomatoes
2tutted with chopped onion and cucum
er, seasoned well and mixed with
French dressing, a little chopped
parsley added, is a mast appetizing
salad. Serve each tomato on a leaf
of lettuce or set in a nest of, blanched
head lettuce. *.
