The elei'tion of city ensineer tomor
row evenltiK at tho joint session of the;
councils is att.actiiiK nrat aitfiitlnn.
This is caused by tne several candi
lats in the Hold ami by the active work
some are dolus fur th.ir candidates.
Certain persons are making every en
deavor to prevent tlic re-election of
Mr. Krlck. but they will probably not
Influence the councils enounn to muae
his re-election, which seems to be fa
vored by most members, an Impossibil
ity. Among, other thlnps Is the circu
lation of a petition by Mr. Devine, of
the West Side, whose position is ex- i
plained by his defeat In certain matters j
in the council. i
Mr. Krlck has proved himself fully
en palde of fillins the position nnd oil
his work lias been done with prompt
ness and ability. The councils should I
take this into consideration Tuesday
evening. j

Lydia L I'inkham's Vegetable Compound
Will cure the worst forms of female
complaints, all ovarian tro bles, in
flammation and ulceration, falling- and
displacements of the womb, and conse
quent spinal weakness, and is pecu
liarly adapted to the chnnire of life.
Every time it will cure Backache.
It lias cured more cases of loucor
rlieea by removing the cause, than any
remedy the world lias ever known ; it
is almost infallible in such cases. Ii
dissolves and expels tumors from the
uterus in an early stage of develop
ment, and checks any tendency to can
cerous humors. Lydia E. Plnktiam'e
Liver Pills work in unison with the
Compound, and are a sure cure for
constipation and Rick headache. Mrs.
I'inkham's Sanative Wash is of great
value for local application.

THINGS
In this world. One of the
strangest of all is that some
men think it costs more to buy '
Clothing
On Credit
than to pay cash. Just why
this is so nobody will be ever
able to tell.
