The womb is situated back of and close to the bladder, and for that reason any distress, disease or in- convenience manitested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary pa-sage is otten by mistake attributed to temale weak- ness or ftomb trouble of some sort.

Because of the various complics, tions and the fierce contest in tucy- | big field of candidates after the-- | place now held by John R. Watkes,.. there is a possibility of Lewis being accepted as ac mpromise candidwe, - It depends upon the dispositione made of the other offices and the” attitude of Major Warner. If the Kerens Davis Grosvenor - Thompson “siate” as to collecter of internal revenue and surveyor of the port goes through, and Maj Warver refuses to sue for crumbs, it is pos- sible that Lew's may finally get tha indorsement «f Kerens and Daya. It is this possibility that is nerving him to secure denunciation of Fil'e: a success. The rate on the Pitts burg and Gulf is $1.50 round trip, dogs free ll entries must be in before December 1st.
