FATAL TO T. R.
While Delirious, Begged Com
panions to Leave Him in
Jungle—After Rest, a Lec
ture. Then to Spain.
New York. —Those who have seen
Theodore Hooeevelt alnc* hl» return
from livazll realize from hi* appearance
that he passed through a trying time.
Though hi* cheeks are bronzed, hi* smile
present and hi* grip firm, there are
many trace* of the hardship* he ertdpred
In hi* 600-mlle Journey down the Ilto
Pmlda. the unknown river he explored.
The trip from Para which began May
7th did much to restore Colonel Roose
velt. It give hack to him 25 or 30 of
the 55 pounds he had lost and the Jungle
fester* that r*n from the ankle to the
knee of hla right leg were nearly all
healed.
Very 111.
"I have been very 111 with Jungle
fever" he said on hi* arrival, "but I’m
all right now 1 feel fine"
The colonel, It was learned, for a time
was so sick *nd weak that there were
days when one hundred yard* of travel
marked the measure of hi* endurance.
For five day* he was delirious with 105
degrees of fever. Under It he begged
hi* companions. It I* staled, to go and
leave him where he lay In the Jungle.
At Manans. the point of the expedi
tion's return to civilization, Col. Roo**-
velt was so 111 that he had to he helped
ab<atrd the sloamer Dunelan on which
he travailed to Para.
Began to Improve.
During the four day* of hi* «tay on
the Dunslan lie wu* confined to hi* bed.
Not until the first day of h s «lop-over
at Para did he show the Improvement
which has continued alnea.
i oi. Roosevelt plana to rest quietly at
hi* Oyster Ray home until Thursday
when he will go up to the village from
Hagomore Hill to meet hta neighbors.
Next Tuesday- he plan* to go to Wash
ington to atldres* the National Gen
gnphle Society on the result* of this
Rr.itlllan exploring trip and on May 3t»h
he will probably *tart for Europe to at
tend In Mudrld the wedding of hla son
Kcrmlt.
Theodore Ro*evelt exceeded hla
famous African Journey In danger and
excitement on his latest exploration
trip. Th eflrst half of It wan a whlrll
wtn(i of oratory, with cheering (and
sometime* Jeering) multitude* greet
ing him: whllo the Ihsl half was a
plunge through the primeval wilder
ness, where two men of the expedition
wire lost, knd the ex-prestdent was
badly injured and contracted a Jungle
diet nsc.
Colonel Roosevelt aalled from New
York, October 4th, last, ahoard the

The $3,000 Lactlira.
From Rio the party went by train
Bao Paulo. The Rrazlllans received
the Roosevelts cordially. Many months
later there marten the report that
Roosevelt had repute their favors by
sending In a Idll for 3,000 for a lee
tun- lie had delivered before a hla
torlcal society. This story does not
seem to have been substantiated.
From Rrazll the colonel went to
Uruguay and thence to Huenos

November 10th, the University at
Huenos Ayres cnferted on him the

the cries "Viva Columbia" and "Viva

a hostile multitude hsd awaited
Roosevelt when he arrived at the
railroad station The anti-American
newspaper l,a Rnznn had published
bitter personal attacks on him for
fifteen days before his coming.
Returning to Argentina, the colonel
now turned from seml-polltlcal to
scientific work. He voyaged up the
Parana River, was entertained a lit
tle In Daraguay, and then with an
augmented party of nnturalsls entered
the llttlo known country of the south
Amazon valley.
World Wids Discussion.
This part of the colonel's Journey
hHS provoked world wide discussion.
He declares that with his party he
embarked at latitude 12 degrees south
snd longitude 60 degrees, fifteen min
utes west on the River Duvtda or
River of Doubt. He says this rises
between 50 and 50 degreos west lon
gitude and latitude 13 south Hnd flows
for more thnn 1,000 miles In a norther
ly direction. In latitude 7 degrees 30
minutes south the river Is met by an
other, and the two flow Into the Ma
deira, which Is a southern tributary
. of the Amaznr
The colonel followed this river for
more than nine hundred miles. The
party struggled with the rapids for
) thirty-five days and for forty-eight
I day* were out of sight of human
i habitations. At one cascade a canoe
rm*.
J V
in which were three of the party was
In danger of capsizing. The colonell
plunged Into the river from his own
canoe, seized the endangered canoe,
and although he was dragged along
by it, clung to It and prevented It and
the three men in it from going over
the falls of rapids. Of the two men
killed on the trip one was drowned
in the rapids, while the was
shot by a fellow. The latter was sup
posedly insane from hardships.

BATTLE BETWEEN
LIFE AND DEATH
Ridqely Lady Tells of Her
Fierce Struggle and How
She Finally Won.
Rldgely, Tenn.—"lf It had not been
for Cardul, the woman’s tonic," says
Mrs. Jennie Bate*. of this town, "I
honestly believe I would have been
In my grave today. Therefore. I want
to say something good for Cardui, but
I can’t begin to say enough.
I was sick abed with womanly trou
bles, from February until October,
and was in very bad condition. I was
treated three of Tour times a week,
hut It did me no good.
I battled between life and death,
and my husband thought surely I
would die.
One dhy, I thought I would give
Cardul, the woman’s tonic, a trial. I
had no confidence in it, at all, but
bought a bottle. In a few days, I
was up and doing my housework.
Now, I have gained 15 pounds and
feel as well as I ever felt In my life.
I advise all sick and suffering wo
men to try Cardui. It cured me when
all other medicines failed.”
If you are weak, tired, worn-out, or
suffer from any of the pains peculiar
to weak women, such as headache,
backache, pains in arm, side or limbs,
or any symptoms of womanly trouble,
you are urged to try Cardul, th* wo
man's tonic. We think It will help
you.
He halted men on the road until he
accumulated an "army" of eight. He
made them march and counter march,
march slowly and on the double
quick, single file, double file and four
abreast. Word reached the sheriff’s
office that the men were being held
prisoners, and a deputy slipped up
hehind Klopp and with the butt of
his gun knocked him down.
Klopp's gun was found to be empty.
He will be examined for Ills sanity.

Having hoard at Peekskiil, N. Y.,
Motherhouse of the Sisters of St. Fran

Alterative, I determined as a last re
sort to try it. After taking four or five
bottles largo pieces of diseased tissue
came away. 1 continued the Altera
tive, to my grateful an d cia.lly' relief. In
ten months I was restored to perfect
health. I would like them to see and
