v,.Jt wuwm noms as nis common The Lake County Medical society will
-irvcio nrrcBiea on complaints made In Judge presfs court at Ham
mond today, by another woman whom he married years ago and by whom he has two children. The story as told in
detail by his lawful wife was pitiful In
many ways and Is the most shocking
that Judge Preet has had before him
in many years.
Many years ago, Poncxek was hanDl
ly married in the old country and two children were born. Hearlnar of th
riches in America, Poncsek left his wife and children and emigrated to the United States. In New York, he met
his common law wife and from thence went to Pittsburg. Scranton and finally came to Gary. They lived together as
man and wife and to them three chil
dren were born.
In the meantime his wife in the old
country tolled and starved to support
herself and two children. Becoming discouraged, with no news from her husband, she started in a still hunt for
the deserter. Landing in New York, she trailed him to Chicago while she asked adv4ce of the consul. Poncsek was located In Gary, living with his
common law wife and children and at once warrants were sworn out for his
arrest.

T. TAGUE
LICKS HIM
IN HURRY
The much-touted Jack Loom is proved
no match for "Demon" Tommy Tague of Hammond last night, when the two lJ4-pounders met in their scheduled ten-round tilt at Peoria, 111. It was a case of Tague being too clever and fast for the ePoria. boy, and carrying a wicked punch, the clever Hammond youngster had Loomis all but out In
the closing rounds. With his face battered to a pulp from Tague's slashing
blows, Loomois appeared ln such a bad
shape that the referee was compelled
to stop the fight.
The decisive victory over Loomis last night places Tague in number A standing with the Peoria fight fans, and he will be welcomed back to the Illinois city at any time. Arrangements .are being made to jut Tague on with some
clever boy In this vldnity, and It Is probable that he will be seen in action
in the near future. Tague has devel
oped wonderfully during the past month and at tNe present rate he Is traveling he Is fast climbing towards

Women Are Constantly Being Restored to I Health by LycjUa E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "Worth mountains of gold," says one woman. Another says, "I would not give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for all the other medicines for women in the world." Still another writes, " I should like to have the merits of Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound thrown on the sky with a searchlight so that all suffering women could read and be convinced that there is a remedy for their ills." We could fill a newspaper ten times the size of this with such quotations taken from the letters we have received from grateful women whose health has been restored and suffering banished by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound accomplished such a universal success ? Why has it lived and thrived and kept on doing its glorious work among the sick women of the world for more than 30 years ? Simply and surely because of its sterling worth. The reason no other medicine has ever approached its success is plainly and simply because there is no other medicine so good for women s ills. Here are two letters that just came to the writer's desk only two of thousands, but both tell a comforting story to every suffering woman who will read them and be guided by them.
