' | Dyspepsia of Women ABSOLUTELY WEEDLESS AGONY Cauaed by Uterine Disorders and Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound A great many women suffer with a form of indigestion or dyspepsia which does not seem to yield to ordinary treat ment. While the symptoms se<yn to be similar to those of ordinary indiges tion, yet the medicines universally pre scribed do not seem to restore the pa tient's normal condition.

J. C. Otts, Plaintiff’s Attorney. Dated March 20th. 1905, A. D. TWO PRISONERS ARE BORNEO TO DEATH Men Started Blaze With The Hope Ot Escaping. OWN FOLLY CAUSED THE DEATHS Three Men Were on a Carousal and Town Marshal Arrested and Placed Them in Jail—Build'ng Was De stroyed Before Assistance Arrived. SAYS WOMAN IS HOUNDINQ HIM. Mrs. Pinkhaiu claims that there is a kind dyspepsia that is caused by a derangement of the female organism, and whieh, while it causes a disturb ance similar to ordinary indigestion, cannot be relieved without a medicine which not only acts as a stomach tonic, but has peculiar utcrine-tonic effects also. As proof of this theory we call at tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y., who was completely cured by Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound after every thing else had failed. She writes: “For two years T suffered with dyspepsia which so degenerated my entire system that I was unable to attend to my daily duties. I felt weak and nervous, and nothftig that I ate tasted good and it caused a disturbance in my stomach. I tried different dyspepsia cures, but nothing seemed to help me. I was ad vised to gi e Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compoui. . a trial, and was happily surprised to find th t it acted like a fine tonic, ami in a few days i began.to enjoy and properly digest my food My recovery was rapid, and in five vyee’s I was a well woman. 1 have rec ommend 3d it to manv suffering women.” No c ther medicine in the world has receiv d such widespread and unquali fied er •orsement.or lias such a record of cures if female t roubles, as has Lydia E. Pin iham’s Vegetable Compound. New Orleans, April 19.—In an at tempt to escape, prisoners early today tired the parish jail at Pontchatoula, J^i., 18 miles from New Orleans, with the result that two of them were cre mated and a third fatally burned.

Niece of Carnegie Secretly Weds Her Former Equestrian Teacher. New York, April 19.—It became known today that Andrew Carnegie’s niece, Nancy, was secretly married about a year ago to a riding master named Heaver, whom she met at New- liort. The story was confirmed by Mr. Carnegie. “My Niece was married to Mr. Hea ver in New York about a year ago,' he said. “Mr. Heaver was a riding teacher in the family. The family has no objection to the match. Mr. Heaver is an honest, upright young man. I would rather Nancy ha/d mar ried a poor, honest man than a worth less duke.
