TRUSTEES’ SALE OF VALUABLE IMPRO’ PROPERTY, EATERS YTOWN, D.C. The ladies of Kentucky have been noted during this entire century for their unusual beauty and robust heaith. ‘This reputation has been justly earned, for our Indies have in personal perfection, certainly equalled, if notsurpaased, the women of any other portion’ of the land. But it has been manifest to evary careful obser- Yer, and is confirmed by the report of the commissioner of vital statistics, that a great inorease of deaths among ladies haa taken place recently. Many homes contain- ing blooming daughters, happy wives and hopeful mothers, haye been suddenly invaded, and one of more of the number mysteriously removed. To as- certain the cause of this increase of mortality among women seems almost impossible. The habits of life; the demands of fashion and many other similar acts undoubtedly contribute to thie ad Fesult; but the presence of these cubtle diseases being 4n estabiished fact, the great and valuable questions must be how to avoid them, or being contract-d, how can they be cured? It is Goubtiess true that many women have to-day the elements of the most alarming diveas-s without being fully aware of it. ‘They are not ‘as well as formerly, their streng:h is uncertain and ap- Petite variable. They have frequent depression of svirits which they attribute to the weather, or their sur- Toundings, when the cause is reslly within their own system. Possibiy they may feel duil or shooting pains in various parts of the body, for which they cannot ac- count, or # sense of wearinces for which there is no rea- son. All these are the premonitions of disease which should be Checked without delay. With the desire {8 agcertain some facts bearine di- rectly upon this subject a Toparter set out on a tour of investigation, with the satisfactory regults which fol- low: Mr. Charles E. Stephens {s the well-known exjicrter Who resides at No. 1223 34 street. In conversation with the newspaper man he made the following strange statement: “I consider the health of women one of the greatest problems of our modern life, I have been brought to this belief after a most unusual experience. My daush- ter, who is now nineteen years old, was afflicted when about ten years of ae with most distressing troubles. By using rest care and attention we succeeded in re- storing her to health, and ehe remained in an apparently fair condition until a year ago last December. At that time she became troubled with more mysterious symp- tome. She was exceedingly lancuid; her feet were swollen so that it was almost impossible to get into her shoes; she had frequent headaches and occasional nau- sea, and experienced a sense of oppression about the chest and lower portion of the body. I sousht the ad- vico of the best physicians and she submitted to their treatment, butshe grew worseconstantly, Last March her condition became quite alarming and two other Phyricians wore called in for consultation. They all ‘sureed that she could not recover. At that time she was bloated from head to foot and measured forty-five inches around the waist. ‘This swelling increased daily, accompanied by cold chills, frequent vomiting and great difficulty of breathing. ‘The doctora made in- cisions frequently and large quantities of water were discharged, while a microscoplo examination showed the presence of 75 percent of solid albumen. The bloat- ingof her head and neck caused her the greatest pain, andit comctimes seemed as though she would go mad with the agony. The doctors did not give us the slight- est hope, but wave us to understand she wou!d dio very soon. At that time we learned that Professor Clark, of New York, made a specialty of kidney diseases, and we wrote him, requesting an immediate visit. He tele- graphed that it was impossible to come, and asked for the particulars of the caso, which we eent. After a care- ful analysis he replied that the doctors had done all that could be done and recovery was impossible. At the same time he sent a prescription, which he said we might try, and which we did without effect. About August first the doctors informed us our daughter could not live longer than a week, and might die at any moment. The agony we then experienced can only be appreciated by those who have watched by the side of dear ones waiting for the eummons. You may think me over-earnest on this subject, but I can assure you it was a serious matter with us, and we became almost desperate. For some time we had been thinking of trymg a remedy of which we ‘had heard much but did not dare to interfere with the treatment of physicians of such high standing. When they assured us there was no hope, however, we took the case into our own hands and began treating herour- selves. This was on August 6th, and the same day the Aoctors loft us, expecting never to soe her alive again. ‘The second day wo vaw a change for the better; within a week the chills ceased and the swelling bezan to dis- appear. Her appetite asserted iteelf and she retained food without the least trouble. From that time on she has continued to improve until now sh is apparently 45 well as ever, and all through the power of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, the remedy we used. Her friends have all been amazed at what was almost a resurrection from the dead, and we are all of us happy beyond expression. I consider that this remedy has worked a miracle and should like to have it known to the entire world. Let me say, though, that I have learned there are some dangerous imitations of it in the market, which, by a similarity of name. ere trying to deceive the public, and which should be avolded.- ‘Mise Dora Schulz, who is an exfonsive manufacturer of ladies’ and children's wear in Louisville, St. Louis and Chicago, is an aunt of Miss Lillie Stephens, and at the suggestion of Mr. Stephens, the reporter called to see her at her place of business. *‘Miss Schulz, you have had an extensive experience with the women and chi‘dren of this country by reason of the nature of your business. Can you give any facts Tegarding the causes of the increase of disease and mor- tality which are appareht just now?” “I think very many women are troubled as my niece, Miss Stephens, was, but they do not realize how seri- ous itis, as very often no definite symptoms are mani- fest. I wish every one of them could know of her won- derful cure before it is too late, and I wish the merits of this great remedy could be proclaimed from the house- tops for the benefit of suffering womankind. I have lived in the same house with Lillie ever since her birth, and when I think of how the disease was permitted to fix itself. upon her almost without our knowledge, and that others may bein the same dangerous path when they inay easily be saved by the same remedy, I almost wish I could be omnipresent and converse with all these unfortunate ones.”” In view of such facts, we see no reason why the women of America should sutmit to the ban of ill-health when, by proper precaution and the use of the right remedy, they can 20 readily reach that condition of health which fecures happiness. qt For Buaragrasr: CHOCOLAT MENIER.

Caspel. with a lighter in tow, was seen coming down the stream. avold collision Capt. Mills selzed one of the lighters and held his scow back. The frightened passengers crowded to the stern,and the bow of the yawl was borne up out of the water. The Caspell Passed by without doing apy harm, ‘put the ighter swept round, and, striking the bow of the yawl, overturned her. The thiriy passengers were Precipitated into the water. From all sides assist~ ance came and those who were within reach were taken out. John Mannion, a laborer, living on Wayne st., is known to have been drowned. Jas. Munroe and Thos.

Your in- formants are misinformed, or in other wonls the charge 18 a lie.” Mr. Lilly further sald that since that date there has been no relations of and client between them. During the first star route trial, he was of his (Dorsey’s) counsel, bul the duties being irksome he withdrew. * The money he (Dorsey) refers to was not for fees, but money he (Dorsey) drew from the Post OMice de- partment and which rigntfally belongs to an nest sud-contractor—a client of Mr. Lilly’ Mr. Lilly further said that he has been the attor- hey for many sub-contractors, for whom he, had recovered moncy drawn by Mr. Dorsey.
