FACTS GUARANTEED
Neuralgia and Anaemia are Cured by
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
For nearly a generation the people of
this country have known Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, during which time proof of
thousands of cures by this remedy has
been published and confirmed and not
one person has been harmed in the slight-
est degree by their use. The pills con-
tain no opiate, narcotic or stimulant,
nor any drug*which could injure the
most delicate constitution.
"For over a year, "says Miss Charlotte
Van Salisbury, of Castleton, N.Y., "I
suffered from neuralgia and palpitation
of the heart. My skin was pale and sal-
low and I was troubled with dizziness,
fainting spells and fits of indigestion. I
was very nervous and would start at the
slightest sound. At times a great weak-
ness would come over me and on one oc-
casion my limbs gave way under me and
I fell to the sidewalk.
" Of course I was treated by our local
physicians and also consulted a noted
doctor at Albany, but nothing they gave
me seemed to benefit me. One day I
read in a newspaper about Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People and I imme-
diately gave them a trial. I soon felt
much better and my color had begun to
return. I continued using the pills and
by the time I had taken eight boxes I
was entirely cured.
" My sister, Sarah Van Salisbury, suf-
fered terribly from anaemia. She was
pale and thin and we feared that she
would become a victim of consumption.
She tried Dr.Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People and in a short time she be-
gan to gain in strength and weight.
She is now strong and well and we both
heartily recommend Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills to all who are in ill health."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists or sent, postpaid, on receipt
of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for
$2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y. Descriptive pam-

British court circles on an intimation

ALL ALIKE TO THE CHINESE.
Japan and Russia Known, but Rest o>
Earth Is Barbarian.
Says a writer in the Pekin and Tien-
tsin Times: "Chinese ignorance is
one of the hardest things for the for-
eigner who is not a Chinese student to
comprehend. Those who lay them-
selves out to study the people and
their language are not long, no doubt,
in discovering the solidity of the brick
wall which Chinese 'absence of knowl-
edge' represents. The ordinary resi-
dent or casual visitor who only comes
in contact perhaps with the English-
speaking official or intelligent, well-
paid clerk and confidential servant,
cannot realize the absolute inability
of the Chinese people en masse to dis-
tinguish between nationals, or to grasp
what other nations really are.
"Japan they know, and Russia they
know, for both lie within sight and
hearing, so to speak; but the Straits
Settlements and beyond are the 'isl-
ands of the southern sea,' and Euro-
pean countries and people merely the
barbarian tribes which rebel. Of
course this ignorance is daily dimin-
ishing, thanks both to .he missionary
and government schools, but it is still
sufficiently broadcast—and likely to
remain so for many years—to render
inflammable movements at all times
probable.
"The name of America has become
very familiar through the propaganda,
but no idea exists as to what or where
America is, neither is any clear dis-
tinction made between America and
South Africa, and only the other day
we heard that by the people generally
the boycott placards were understood
as signifying that 'some foreign coun-
try' had 'lltreated the Chinese."
Heading Him Off.
Browne—But why do you ask me
to lend him a dollar as a personal fa-
vor to you? Are you under obligation j
to him?
Towne—No; but if you don't he'll j
come to me for it.
What It's For.
Hunt's Cure is designed for one pur-
pose and only one; that is to cure j
promptly and permanently any form ;
of itching skin trouble known, and !
it does so. If it fails your money is ;
cheerfully refunded, but it does not j
fail more than once in a thousand
cases. It's the best there is.
Quite So.
"You don't buy so much meat now, !
Mrs. Malaprop."
"No, indeed; since all these awful
tales, our family has turned valetudi-
narian."—Baltimore American.
Her Reason.
"All the while she's on the ocean
Gladys doesn't eat any meat."
"Why?"
"So she won't lose flesh."
COULD AFFORD TO BE LIBERAL.
Where Son Had Distinct Advantage
Over Father.
Prodigal as the Rothschilds were
and are they nearly all have and had
one trait in common. They will give
thousands without a moment's hesi-
tation; they will not be fleeced of a
penny after half an hour's discussion.
There is a story in connection with
this trait relating to Leopold de
Rothschild's father. The son was in
the habit of taking the same cab every
morning from Piccadilly to St. Swith-
in's lane and always gave the Jehu
half a crown. One mr.rning when the
son was away the sire hailed the con-
veyance and at the end of the journey
gave the driver a florin, or 12 cents
less. Cabby looked at the coin wist
fully. "What's wrong?" asked the old
man. "Nothing, sir," was the reply,
"but Mr. Leopold always gives me
half a crown." "I don't wonder at it.
Mr. Leopold is a spendthrift, but he
can afford it; he has a rich father.
I am an orphan and can't."
Treacherous Memory.
Kimball Carrow has the reputation
of being the champion absent-minded
' man of Bedford, Mass. On one occa-
sion he calls'! upon his old friend and
family physician, Dr. B. E. Sawyer.
After a chat of a couple of hours, the
doctor saw him to the door and bade
him good night, saying: "Come again.
Family well, I suppose?"
"My heavens!" exclaimed Mr. Car-
row, "that reminds me of my errand;
my wife's in a fit!"—Chicago Inte/
Ocean.
New Steamer Line.
The Pacific coast city of Seattle re
joices that it is to have a line of
French steamships from that port to
Europe, with sailings every two
months, by way of the Straits of Magel-
len and the ports 01 South America.
Seattle already has two steamship
lines to Europe. The vessels of the
China Mutual line gives a through
service to Liverpool, by way of the
ports of Asia; and the Cosmos line
gives a service to Hamburg, hy way of
Vhe ports of South America.

Gratitude.
A. rare example of discerning grat-
uities is given by the late Marchioness
Isabella Lucia of Pavia who has left
a legacy of $3,000 to a local comic pa-
per to which she had been a lifelong
subscriber. Her will also directed
that §:>00 in addition be spent on a

"IT SAVED MY LIFE"
PRAISE FOR A FAMOUS MEDICINE
Mrs. Willadsen Tells How She Tried Lydfa
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Just
in Time.
Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning-,
Iowa, writes to Mrs. Pinkham:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :—
" I can truly say that you have saved mj
life, and I cannot express my gratitude to
you in words.
Lovers of Animals.
The royal family of England has al-
ways been very keen on animals of
J every kind, and among its various
' members it probably owns the finest
j collection of dogs and cats in Eng-
I land. Princess Victoria of Schleswig-
j Holstein, the elder daughter of Prince
Christian, has recently had erected at
Cumberland Lodge, her home at
Windsor, a beautiful little house for
her famous Persian cats.
Airs. T C Willadsen
Can't Grow Cotton.
The British vice consul at Jaffa la-
I inents that all the efforts made by h
Liverpool firm to projnote the cultiva-
: tion of cotton in Palestine have been
fruitless, even though labor costs only
j 25 cents a day and land is one-tenth
the 1 rice of Egyptian land. The chief
cause of the failure is said by the
consul to be the incapacity and iazi-
, ness of the natives.
Impatience.
Only to follow you. dearest, only to find
you!
Only to feel for one instant the touch
of your hand;
Only to tell you once of the love you left
behind you—
To say the world without you is like a
desert of sand;
That the flowers have lost their perfume,
the rose its splendor.
And the chaim of nature is lost in a
dull eclipse;
That joy went out with the glance of
your eyes so tender.
And beauty passes with the lovely smile
on your lips.
I did not dream it was you who kindled
thr> morning
And folded the evening purple in peacj
so sweet;
But you took the whole world's rapture
without a warning.
And left me naught save the print of
your patient feet.
I count the days and the hours that hold
us asunder:
I long for Death's friendly hand which
shall rend in twain.
With the glorious lightning flash and the
golden thunder.
Th« se clouds of the earth, and give mo
my own again!
—Celia Thaxttr.
Another Version.
Jack was just about to build his fa-
mous house.
"Why don't you get some men to
help you?" asked a curious friend.
"No, sir." replied Jack, "they would
call a strike on me before the house
was finished. I'll build it myself. *
Thus we know why the house wajf,
sailed the house that Jack built."
Should Be an Expert.
Matthew Fowlds, of Farwick, near
Kilmarnock, Scotland, who has just
celebrated his hundredth birthday, has
for 90 years plied the hand loom, and
' still earns n*s living as a weaver. His
; children, including one son, who is a
member of the house of representatives
in New Zealand, have gathered at Far-
wick to celebrate the birthday.
''Before I wrote to you, telling you how 1
felt. I had doctored for over two years steadj
and spent lots of money on medicines besides
but it all failed to help me. My monthly pe-
riods had ceased and I suffered much pam
with fainting spells, headache, backache anr1
bearing-down pains, and I was so weak )
could nardly keep around. As a last resort
I decided to write you and try Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound, and I am st
thankful that I did, for after following your
instructions, which you sent me free of aL'
charge, I became regular and in perfect
health. Had it not been for you I would be
in my grave to-day.
" I sincerely trust that this letter may lead
every suffering woman in the country to
write you for help as I did."
When women are troubled with ir-
regular or painful periods, weakness,
displacement or ulceration of an organ,
that bearing-down feeling', inflamma-
tion, backache, flatulence, general de-
bility, indigestion or nervous prostra-
tion. they should remember there is
one tried and true remedy. Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once
removes such troubles.
No other female medicine in the world
has received such widespread and un-
qualified endorsement. Refuse all sub-
stitutes.
For 25 years Mrs Pinkham, daughter-
in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, has under
her direction, and since her decease,
been advising sick women free of
charge. Address, Lynn, Mass.
