The in troduction of Mine of Cardut has now demon strated that nine-tenths of all the cases of menstrual disorders do not require a physician 's attention at all. The simple, pure ran.; taken In the privacy of woman's own home insures quick relief and speedy cure. Women need not hesitate now.

One night recent ly Mr. Biggers' horse got out of its stable and while wandering around the place, fell into the well, which is sixty feet deep. He fell abont fifty feet ind lodged on the rock wall. It remained in that fix until the next morning, when Mr. Diggers went to draw water. In iffjits to free itself fiom the cramped position the horse fell from its lodgings iuto the water beneath. Mr. Diggers did not know nntil that time his borte whs in the well. The alarm was aent out through the neighborhood and with hetoio work by a large fo ce of hands and the assistance of a combination pulley and rope, the animal was drawn out, somewhat mutilattd, but alive.
