THE LEX1HQT0N DISPATCH. Wednesday, November 21,1906. STUCK IN THE FAINT. \ Lovers Hasten Marriage and Win Suit Against Troliey Company. i Dressed in the lightest of their summer clothing, both as to texture and color, Joseph Roghan, a clerk employed in a Broadway department store, and his fiancee, went, for a trolley ride in the cool of the evening of August 4 last, and thereby hangs a * tale which might have been tragic but which came to a pleasant close, as all love stories should, in the municipal court yesterday. Boarding an Eight') avenue car in Cortland and Greenwich streets, Mr. Roghan and his -bride-to-be settled themselves comfortably in a seat that looked particularly new and inviting, and enjoyed the breezes until 125th street was reached. Then they deckled to get off, but they reckoned without that particularly new and inviting seat. It refused to let them budge. Startled for a moment with a fear of sudden paralysis, Roghan and the young woman gazed into each other's J eyes with something like horror. Then i Roghan passed his hand along the back of the seat and discovered that it bore a thick coating of the stickest kind of enamel paint, which had not dried. With a whispered word he v': clasped her hand finnly in his, and they gave a strong pull, a long pull, and a pull both together. There >was a rending sound, and both, were free, .but clinging to the affectionate seat were, various portions of their summer clothing. For reasons best known to themselves Roghan and his fiancee decided to hasten their marriage and they became one a few days later. Then thev . brought suit against.the New York City Railway company,' and before Juage Heyer a verdict in their favor was given for $95, compensation, for their embarrassment, the paint they acquired and the clothing they lost. Cured of Bright's Disease. Mr. Robert 0. Burke, Elnora, N. Y., writes:""Before I started to use Foley's VMnaw Hp.ki T had in crci tin fmm " -?

Kaxifmann Drug Co. The Cold Wave Was on Time. Sleet and snow yesterday; thunder and lightning Sunday. Tne cold wave predicted in The State Monday morning came in due time and Tuesday night the overcoats and wraps were brought out. Wednesday morning the thick, gray clouds looked snowlike, but it Seemed almost unlikely that it would come. However, yesterday at noon the sleet and snow began ,to fall and things looked like Chrifetmas. The game season comes in today in this county, and hundreds of sportsmen will leave today on a search for the fluffy partridge. The cold wave, however,.will have U_ .3 rr?wrri?. I ' a- vcry U<ki eucvu uii wuiwu. i i<*t nc % Jordan said in Atlanta.yesterday: "If there was any cotton left by the last frost," said Harvie Jordan, president of the Southern Cotton association, "It is certainly dead now after the "frost which came last night." "There might have been a quantity of the staple left in protected places by the last frost of several days ago, but very little survived the chill. I beHeve the estimate made public by the executive committee last week will be materially decreased by-thefrost of Monday night." President Jordan did not take much stock in the estimate of over 14,000,000 bales for this year's crop, given out by Charles A Cowan of New York. ?State, Nov. 15. ; This is Worth Remembering. As no one is immune, every person should remember that- Foley's Kidney Cure will cure any case of kidney or bladder trouble that is not beyond the reach of medicine. X?j. Gea.

Fearfui SUGGESTIONS HOW REL While no woman is entirely free from 1 periodical suffering, it does not seem to 3 be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. This is a ! severe strain on a woman's vitality. J ! When pain exists something is wrong which should be set right or it will lead to a serious derangement of the whole female organism. Thousands of women have testified in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinkham . that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable ( Compound overcomes woman's special . pains and irregularities. It provides a safe and sure way of escape from distressing and dangerous weaknesses and diseases. The two following letters tell so convincingly what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will do for ( wotnen, they cannot fail to bring hope ' to thousands of sufferers. ( Miss Nellie Holmes, of 540 N. Division Street, Buffalo, N. Y., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:? u Your medicine is indeed an ideal medicine j for women. I suffered misery for years with ( painful periods, headaches, and bearing-down , pains. I consulted two different physicians out failed to get any relief. A friend from the J east advised me to* try Lydia E. Pinkham's ; Vegetable Compound. I did so, and no longer suffer as I did before. My periods are natural; i every ache and pain is gone, and my general health is much improved. I advise all women who suffer to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." t i, vMrs. Tillie Hart, of Larimore, N. D., < Writjes: Dear Mrs^PinkhaM:?"V 441 might have been spared many months ] of suffering and pain had I only kno wn of the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable 1 Ask Mrs. Pinkhams Advice?A nomai FRANCE C. WRENN ACQUITTED. V The Victim of VThitscappers Goes Free "by Agreement. Greenwood, S. C., Nov.' 15.?Frank C. Wrenn, who was charged with the killing of John Anderson last August, was acquitted, today by agreement. It will be remembered that Anderson was one of a party of "regulators" who \frent to Wrenn's house, called him to the door rushed in, and proceeded to administer a whipping, whereupon Wrenn. drew his pistol and fired, killing Anderson instantly. Dancing Proves Fatal. jMany men and women catch colds at danqps which terminate in pneumonia and consumption. After exposure, if Foley's Honey and Tar is taken it will break np a cold and no serious results need be feared. Refuse any but the genuine in a yellow package. Kauf maim Drag (Jo. An Interesting Case. An interesting case last week was the one . against J. M. Oassidy for gambling. He was one of the Columbia crowd before the court last term, when eleven of them got off for $15 each. Cassidy escaped and could not be arrested, but when afterwards he heard how easy the other fellows got off, he was sorry he had not gone up with them. Some time ago he came over here to see Sheriff Corley about it, and put $100 in Clerk George's hands for his bond, and on Wednesday of court he appeared and upon plea, a9ked Judge Memminger for mercy. Now the Judge i9 the one who made it interesting, for he considered the case well, only to announce ten days and $50 for Cassidy, and up he went. We need more Judge Memmingers for this State. - PAINSj WOMEN MAY FIND j IEF. Compound 80oS^;,for I have triea so many remedies without: help. "I dreaded the approach of every month, as it meant so much pain and suffering for me, but after I had used th? Compound two months I became regular and natural and am now perfectly well and free from pain. I am very grateful for what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me." Such testimony should be accepted by all women as convincing evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound stands without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ills of women. The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound rests upon the well-earned gratitude of American women. When women are troubled with pain or irregularities, displacements or ulceration of the organs, that bearingdown feeling, inflammation, backache, bloating (or flatulency), general debility, indigestion and nervous prostration, or *re beset with such sympgtems as dizziness, faintness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best. Don't hesitate to writie to Mrs. Pinkham if there is anything about your sickness you do not understand. She will treat you with kindness and her advice is free. No woman ever regretted, writing her and she has helped thousands. Address Lynn, Mass. ii Best Understands a Woman's Ills. Birthday to 2s Observed.
