k A NARRATIVE OF WOMAN’S ILLS.
VlgM lacing and Lack of Ont-Dnn*
Kxercleo Bring Much Woe.
(.From lAe Detroit Bun.)
The large, pretentioui brick residence at
86 Miami avenue, in thia city, is the home
of the heroine of this interesting story.
She is Miss Margaret Stenbaugh, and her
experiences during the past four yean are
published here for the first time.
Miss Stenbaugh is a pretty girl of about
20 years and is to-day the true picture of
the ideal, healthv, robust and jovial Ameri
can girl. She was not always so, as is
proven by the accompanying statement
“ Four yean ago,’’ she said, I was sueh a
scrawny, puny little midget, pale and eina
citard by an ailment peculiar to us women,
that my father and mother gave me up to
die. The local practitioner, whose name
was Dr. Glassford,(l was at that time living
at Scotland, Ont.,) said it was only a matter
of days when I would bs laid away in the
churchyard. “ I could not walk. I became
ao weak, and regularly every night my
k father used to carry me up stairs to my
I room. I can distinctly remember my tell
i ing him that he wouldn't have to carry me
[ about much longer, and how he said, while
' the tears glistened in his eyes, tL.t he
would bo willing to do it always, if ho
could only have me with him.
“ At this time, I read, or was told by some
body, of the wonderful cures that were being
wrought by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for
Pale People, and my father went to Brant
ford. where he purchased a couple of boxes
from W. Wallace. I commenced taking
them, and I thought for a time that they did
jpe no good, butvery shortly I noticed agreat
change. They began to act on my trouble,
an<. in the short space of six weeks I was
, abl tto walk. I continued taking the pills,
as tin six months I was in the condition
y« x see me now. I fully believe that they
alone saved me from the grave, and you will
Mwavs find myself and the balance of our
family ready to talk about the good Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills did for me.”
Sworn to and subscribed before me this
15th day of December, 1893.

An analysis of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
for Pale People shows that they contain,
in a condensed form, all the elements neces
' aary to give new life and richness to the
blood and restore shattered nerves. They are
an unfailing specific for such diseases as loco
motor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus*
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, ner*
▼ous headache, the after effects of la grippe,
palpitation of the heart, pale »nd sallow
complexions, all forms of weoknt either ix
male or female, and all diseases resulting
from vitiated humors in the blood. Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all dealers,
or will be sent post paid on receipt of price,

are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by ad

Georgia State Horticultural Society to Meet
in Griffin.
The 20th Annual Session. of this So
ciety will be held in the city of Griffin,
Ga., August sth, 6th and 7th, 1896.
The object of the Association is, first
of all, to promote the progress of Horti
culture in our state. To accomplish
this, earnest workers must co-operate
with their experience and scientific
attainments; the re-union is, therefore,
expected to be composed of working
members, looking toward the material
interests of this Commonwealth.
The society was organized in. 1876 by
public-spirited citizens, who have faith
fully labored since to promote the fruit
growing industry of Georgia; and aid in
the higher education of its people. They
have paid with their purse and person,
not only freely giving their labor, but
paying for the publication of its proceed
ings, which have been distributed free of
charge wherever they could serve the aims
of the society. The only revenue of the
society is derived from the annual mem
bership fees, and, as this is limited, the
society is hampered in its scope. The so
ciety needs the co-operation of every pro
gressive citizen of Georgia. If you can
not attend the sessions of the society,
aid it by becoming a member and enable
it to enlarge its sphere of usefulness.
The past work of the society has
caused a wonderful development of
the fruit-growing industry, which of
late has ’given several sections of the
state a most rapid increase in its land
values, as well as in an intelligent
class of settlers from other states.
You can still further aid in this good
cause by coming to Griffin; affiiliate
with the society and enable it to show
in a practical way that the fruit and
vegetable-producing resources of
Georgia are second to none and su
perior to those of many less favored
sections of the United States.
All horticulturists fruit-growers and
progressive agriculturists are earn-,
estly and cordially invited to send
such articles for exhibition as will
make the display of Georgia-grown
fruits, flowers and vegetables credita
ble to the skill and progress of its peo
ple.
It is earnestly hoped that there will
be a full attendance of members from
every section of the state, that con
centrated information and experience
of fruit growers may be obtained,
thus aiding the society to perfect the
several catalogues of fruits and vege
tables adapted to each geographical
division of the state These cata
logues are now the recognized reliable
guides of the fruit growers of Georgia
and have had a most wonderful in
fluence in developing its fruit-grow
ing interests.
Reduced fares have been received from
the railroads.
Hotel rates have been reduced. Annual
membership fee $2.00.
All applications for membership should
be made to the treasurer before July 15th.
A most attractive programme of essays
from eminent scientists and successful
horticulturists is being prepared, and will
be issued later.

The populists of Polk county held
a convention in the court house at
Cedartown Saturday and appointed
delegates to their state convention,
which is to meet in Atlanta,'August 6,
to nominate a candidate for governor
and state house officers.
They also elected delegates to a
congressional convention, to be held
at Dallas, i aulding county, on July
14, to nominate a candinate for their
party for congress for the Seventh
district.
Both delegations go uninstructed,
but the meeting, it is understood, is
favorable to James W. McGarity, of
Paulding, for congress.
Col. Miller A. A. Wright, offered res
olutions favorable to Senator Teller as
the silver candidate for president, and
made ale gthy speech in the interest of
free silver and Senator Teller. At the
conclusion of Wright’s speech, however
they decided Teller was too fresh from
the republican camp, and sat down on
Col. Wright and his resolutions. The
convention seemed to be enthusiastic
for a straight populist ticket, both state
and federal.

THE BUMS TRIBUNE, TUESDAY. JUNS 30, 185 M
WIVES OF LEADERS.
MRS. WILLIAM M’KINLEY AND MRS.
GARRET A. HOBART.
Two Women In Whom the Publie la Very
Much Interested—How William McKin
ley Married the Belle of Canton—Mr.
Hobart’s Helpmeet.
Mrs. McKinley and Mrs. Hobart, the
wives of the two Republican standard
bearers, are now sharing with their
husbands something of that publicity
which is the lot of all who are connect
ed with the game of politics. Every
woman in the land, aad a large majority
of men, will be interested in knowing
all about the gentle rulers of these two
homes
The other day, when the home of
William McKinley in Canton was a
'i cajwwEw
MBS. M’KINLEY.
scene of the most intense interest and
excitement, a pleasant faced, middle
aged woman sat quietly rooking in a
pleasant coiner of the triple bay win
dow which juts out from the west side
of the big sitting room. She was chat
ting cheerfully with a group of women
friends and now and then touching
lovingly a big bunch of pink roses
which stood in a jar on the table beside
her.
This was Mrs. McKinley. Her smooth
white brow was unruffled and her tone
betrayed no unusual excitement None
realized better than she how much the
results of the next few minutes would
mean to herself and to her husband.
Yet she was as composed as if she had
been merely entertaining a few callers
on an ordinary afternoon. Nothing could
better illustrate the superb mental poise
and balance of the wife of the Repub
lican candidate for president.
This mental strength is the most
striking feature about Mrs. McKinley.
And yet Mrs. McKinley is an invalid
and has been such for 25 years. Her
suffering has had no effect on her dispo
sition unless it has been to soften it
She does not even allow her infirmity to
be a forbidden subject, for she says to
all visitors, with a motion of her hand
toward the cane which rests near her,
“You see I am not strong. ”
Twenty-six years ago Mrs. McKinley
was Ida Saxton, the richest heiress and
the most popular belle in Canton. She
had been carefully educated at Brook
Hall seminary, in Media, Pa., and been
polished by a trip abroad and had come
home a charming and attractive young
woman. Her father, a practical and
successful business man, did not think,,
as she did, that her education had been
finished. “Girls should learn to do
something useful” was his motto. So
he put his daughter into his bank as
cashier and for a year she busied herself
with the mysteries of accounts.
For two or three years she enjoyed
the delights of being a reigning belle,
and then the suitors gradually gave
way one by one to a rising young law
yer who seemed to find more favor in
her eyes than all the others. Needless
to say the young lawyer was William
McKinley. “Every one approved of the
match,” says Mrs. McKinley, “my fa
ther most of all, and so we were mar
ried. ”
It was the very house where they
now live that Mrs. McKinley entered as
a bride a quarter of a century ago, and
although she has soent much of her
MRS. HOBART.
time since then in the capitals of the
state and nation, her home has always
been in Canton. Two children, came to
them, but one died in infancy and the
other survived only until the fourth
year. Mrs. McKinley is now 49 years
old, but in spite of her ill health carries
her years, well.
Mrs. Hobart is a beautiful, gracious
and accomplished woman. She was the
daughter of Socrates Tuttle, who was
the legal Mentor of Mr. Hobart when
he first went to Paterson, and her friends
say that she has inherited much of the
keen wit for which her father was fa
mous throughout New Jersey. She was
married 25 years ago, when very young.
The pride of the Hobart household is
Garret A. Hobart, Jr., a manly little
fellow of 12. Miss Fannie Hobart, a
beautiful young woman of 22, died in
Italy a year ago while the family were
traveling abroad, and her loss has
thrown a shadow over the Paterson
home which it will take many years to
dissipate. Annette Crawford.
Cancer
Os the Breast.
Mr. A. H. Crausby, of 158 Kerr St.,
Memphis, Tenn., says that his wife
paid no attention to a small lump which
appeared in her breast, but it soon de
veloped into a cancer of the worst type,
and notwithstanding the treatment of
the best physicians, it continued to
spread and grow rapidly, eating two
holes in her breast. The doctors
as oo n pronounced
her incurable. A
celebrated New York
specialist then treat
ed her, but she con-1
tinued to grow worse
and when informed
that both her aunt
and grandmother had
died from cancer he
gave the case up as
hopeless.
Someone then re
commended S.S.S.
and though little hope remained, she
begun it, and an improvement was no
ticed. The cancer commenced to heal and
when she had taken several bottles it
disappeared entirely, and although sev
eral years have elapsed, not a sign of
the disease has ever returned.
