\ 1 Woman’s Story.' 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. D. A. Delaney, Notary Public, ‘ ' W ayne Co., Michigan. 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.

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. G. H. Miller, Secretary, Rome, Ga. L. A.

DON'T WANT TELLER, Polk County I’opullatß Meet and Elect Del egatee. 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. Broke Out In Soree. My head broke out in sores so that I had to have my hair cut off.

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.
