Dr Williams’ Pink Bills Strengthen
the Stomach and Enable It to
Do Its Work
When the stomach is feeble the food
lies in it undigested decays and throws
off poisonous gases that disteud the
walls of the stomach and cause inter
ference with other organs especially
with the action of tho heart and lungs
These gases have other ill effects The
nerves and the brain are disturbed
and discomforts such as dizziness hot
flashes sleeplessness irritablouess and
despondency originate from this source
Experience shows that these troubles
vanish just as soou as the stomach is
made strong enough to digest the food
In other words it needs a tonic that will
ronse it to do the work of changing the
food into nourishment
Miss Minerva O Ladd of Ipswich
Mass says : “I had a weak stomach
from the time f was a little child
Whenever I took hearty food it would
cause terrible faiutuess and I would
finally vomit what I had eaten At
times there would be the most intense
pains through the uppor part of my
body For days in succession I would
have to lie down most of the time
The distress was ofteu so great that I
could hardly bear it and the frequent
and violent belching spells were very
disagreeable too
My doctor’s medicines gave me little
relief and it was not until I tried Dr
Williams' Fink Pills that I found a cure
Within three weeks a decided improve
meut was noticeable The belching
spells were less frequent the pains
through my body were not so intense
my food was retained and after taking
the pills for a few weeks longer I found
that I was altogether free from the
miseries I had so long suffered”

to Eat and How to Eat” Write the Dr

Engraver’s Joke Was Costly
In 1901 a Spanish engraver was
heard boasting that he had “signed
his name” on every one of ten thou
sand bank notes Just about to be Is
sued When called up and asked for
an explanation he declared that he had
been Joking But an examination of
the notes showed that certain letters
In one line were raised a microscopi-
cal distance above those next to them
These raised letters spelled the em-
ploye’s name Seven hundred and
fifty dollars was the price paid by the
authorities for their engraver’s joke
Wins Unique Bet
One of the most ingenious methods
known of keeping the letter of a bet
and breaking Its spirit was that of a
New Yorker who wagered that he
would not speak to a human being for
a month He won his wager but be-
fore many days passed his loneliness
began to pall At last he hit upon the
device of expressing his sentiments by
addressing his remarks to his dog —

FOOD HELPS
In Management of a R R
Speaking of food a railroad man
ays:
“My work puts me out lu all kinds
of weather subject to irregular hours
for meals and compelled to eat all
kinds of food '
“For 7 years I was constantly trou-
bled with indigestion caused by eat-
ing heavy fatty starchy greasy poor-
ly cooked food such as are the most
accessible to men In my business Gen-
erally each meal or lunch was fol-
lowed by distressing pains and burn-
ing sensations in my stomach which
destroyed my sleep and almost un-
fitted me for work My brain was so
snuddy and foggy that it was hard for
me to discharge my duties properlv
“This lasted till about a year ago
when my attention was called to
Grape-Nuts food by a newspaper ad
and I concluded to try it Since then
I have used Grape-Nuts at nearly ev-
ery meal and sometimes between
frieals We railroad men have little
chance to prepare our food lu our ca-
booses and I find Grape-Nuts mighty
handy for it Is ready cooked
“To make a long story short Grape-
Nuts has made a new man of me I
have no more burning distress In my
stomach nor any other symptom of
Indigestion I can digest anything so
long as I eat Grape-Nuts and my
brain works as clearly and accurately
as aq engineer's watch and my old
nervous troubles have disappeared en-

M’CALL PUT IT IN WRITING
Told Again On His Deathbed of the
Deal With Hamilton -
New York — A letter which former
President John A McCall of the
New York Life Insurance company
wrote ’on the day before his death in
which he stated the conditions under
which he employed Andrew Hamil-
ton as legislative agent of the com-
pany was made public It was di-
rected to Alexander E Orr presi-
dent of the New York Life Insurance
company and dated February 16
last ‘ -
The letter is as follows:
"My Dear Mr' Orr: — I am con-
scious that I have but a slight chance
to recover and I am desirous that you
and the company officials through
you shall have no doubt of the nature
and character of the employment - pf
Andrew Hamilton' if I am not here
to be heard when the time arrives to
have it made known
- "He was employed by me in 1895
on behalf of the company to attend
especially to matters of taxation and
legislation in the United States and
other countries affecting the com-
pany's interests
“He refused to accept the duty un-
less it was made confidential and se-
cret and that no accounting of mon-
eys advanced to him should be asked
of him ’ or rendered by him and I
assented to the proposition
"He told me that this condition he
would impose as an absolute one and
unlegs it was accepted he would not
undertake the work -“Whether
my action was legal or
not it will' be left for others to say I
believed it was and that I was
dclothe with full power so to act and
that the interests of the company and
the policyholders demanded steps of
this nature be taken but aside from
the main reason for my present writ-
doubt as to what rpy statement would
be if I were here as to the nature and
character of ‘Judge’ Hamilton’s re-
tainer and contract Sincerely yours
