Mrs. Francis Podmore, President W. C.
T. U., Saranac Lake, New York, Owes
Her Health to Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound. Read Her Letter.
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkham : — For several years after my last child
was born I felt a peculiar weakness, such as I never had experienced
before, with severe pains in the ovaries and frequent headaches.
“ I tried the doctor’s medicines and found it money worse than
wasted. A friend who had been cured through the use of Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound advised me to try it. I did
so, also your Sanative Wash, and I must say I never experienced
such relief before. Within six weeks I was like another woman. I
felt young and strong and happy once more.
“ This is several years ago, but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound is my only medicine. If I ever feel bad or tired a few
doses brings instant relief.”—Mrs. Francis Podmore.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotations from South Omaha
and Kansas City.
SOUTH OMAHA.
Cattle—Cattle receipts were far from
being excessive, and as packers all seemed
to have liberal orders the market was
lively from start to finish and everything
was disposed of in good season. There
was very little change from yesterday,
however, in the prices paid. A fair pro
portion of the offerings consisted of beef
steers. There were none too many to
meet the requirements of the local trade,
so that sellers had no trouble in disposing
of what they had at good, steady prices.
The more desirable grades, of oourse,
were in the best demand, but still even
the common kinds moved quite freely at
fully as good prices as were paid yester
day. Buyers were also anxious for cow
stuff, and particularly for the better
grades. They were all out early looking
for the kinds that are good enough to sell
from $4.00 up. and it did not take sellers
long to dispose of such kinds. Bulls, veal
calves and stags also commanded just
about steady prices. Good stuff sold free
ly, while common kinds were more or
less neglected. There were comparatively
few stock cattle in the yards. Good feed
ers in particular were very scarce, so that
anything showing quality and flesh was
picked up in a hurry at good, steady
prices, no matter whether the cuttle were
heavy or light.
Hogs—Receipts of hogs were not heavy,
but the market opened a little easier. In
extreme cases sales were made that were
a nickel lower, but the market soon
firmed up and the bulk of the hogs sold
at right around steady prices. As the
morning advanced trading became more
active and toward the close sales were
made that were stronger than yesterday.
The bulk of the offerings was disposed of
In good season, but, as Is generally the
case, a few light loads were left until
the last, and on such kinds the market
was slow. The bulk of the good weight
hogs sold from $6.05 to $6.15, medium
weights went from $3.95 to $6.05, and the
light hogs sold from $5.90 down.

INSURRECTION IS EXPIRING.
Acting Governor Wright Thinks End
of War is Near.
MANILA, March 8.—Acting Gover
nor Wright says the province of Mo
rong and the entire province of Rizal
was never more peaceful than they
are now and that the recent occur
rences were due to the influence of
insurrectionists who had been driven
from Laguna and Batangas prov
inces.
The utterances of Senor Ampil, the
former president of the town of Cain
tra, Morong, who was recently captur
ed by insurgents and subsequently es
caped, are classed by Mr. Wright as
being unreliable and as merely the re
marks of a man half crazed with ter
ror. The action of the band which
captured Ampil is clearly due to a per
sonal vendetta. The constabulary
have already dispersed the band and
captured many arms and have com
pletely broken the power of Monta
lon, the old I.adrone chief, who for
years was the terror of the province.
Mr. Wright feels satisfied, from con
versations which he has had with
General Bell and others, that the in
surrection is expiring.
Can't Name the Man.
SCRANTON, Pa., March 8.—W. ,T.
Bryan, who lectured here, when ask

presidential possibility, said: “No one
can tell in advance w'hat the issue will
be or what will be their relative im
portance. It ought to be safe to pre
dict that democratic principles will be
applied to the issues and it ought to
be that the platform should be written
by those whose fidelity to those princi
ples is not subject to suspicion.”
President Holds to Reciprocity.
WASHINGTON, March 8.—The fol
lowing authorized statement was made
public at the White House: “Any
statement that the president has
changed his attitude on the Cuban
reciprocity business is without the
slightest foundation in fact.”

Old Man Killed and Robbed.
BUTLER, I’a., March 8.—Three
masked men broke into the house of
an aged man named Smith, living at
Sandburg. Pa., last night and brutally
assaulted the old man and tortured
Mrs. Smith in a fiendish manner. They
then ransacked the house and secured
$200 and after destroying cosiderable
property about the house escaped.
The named of the murdered man is
Henry Smith, a wealthy and retired
farmer.
The London Times in '61.
The Times, says Prof. Goodwin
Smith in the March Atlantic, arfter a
little wavering carried its vast power
to the side of the south, whose cause
It embraced with an intensity, not to
say with a fury, surprising in com
parison with the sure-footed discretion
usually characteristic of its manage
ment. To the last it persisted with
unabated confidence in assuring its
readers of southern victory. When
from Grant's lines before Petersburg,
Richmond was almost in sight, and it
was evident that the next move on
the board would be checkmate, the
Times continued to give ear to the
asseverations of Mr. Spence that the
triumph of the south was at hand. The
Times really represented only the
wealthier and more aristocratic class
in England. In America it was taken
as representing the whole nation..
Introducing Mr. Seton.
Here is a good story about the au
thor of "Lives of the Hunted." clipped
from an Iowa newspaper:
"In one of his recent lectures the
leading citizen of the town introduced
Ernest Thompson Seton in these
words:
"It took a Roman to tell the Greeks
that they had a Homer, it took a
German to tell England that she had
a Shakespeare, and now it takes an
Englishman to tell us that we have
wild animals.’ ”
For Her Sluter-* Sake.
Stendal, Jnd., Mar. 10th.—Mrs. Sarah
A. Shrode of this place says:
“I suffered much as many other
women do with Kidney and Bladder
Troubles. I tried many medicines but
got no relief until 1 used Dodd’s Kid
ney Pills.
"Nine boxes of this remedy cured
me completely and 1 feel it my duty
to my fellow women to make this
statement.
"I can heartily recommend them
to any woman suffering with Kidney
and Bladder Ailments.”
The words of Mrs. Shrode will be
good news to many of her suffering
sisters. Dodd’s Kidney Pills have
proven themselves to be sick women's
best friend for they are as effectual
in all cases of Female Weakness as
In Bladder and Kidney Disease.

MOST people think catarrh is a
disease confined to the head and
nose. Nothing is farther from
the truth, it may be that the nose and
throat is the oftenest affected by ca
tarrh, but i f this is so it is so only because
these parts are more exposed to the
vicissitudes of the climate than the
other parts of the body.
Every organ, every duct, every cavity
of the human body is liable to catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend on ca
tarrh. This is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many eases of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the
slightest suspicion that catarrh haB any
thing to do with it.
