Persistent Anaemia Cured by Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills After Other
Remedies Had Failed.
“ When I began taking Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills,” says Mrs. Nathaniel Field,
of St. Albans, Somerset county, Maine,
‘‘I was the palest, most bloodless person
you could lmngine. My tongue and
gums were colorless and my fingers and
ears were like wax. I had two doctors
and they pronounced my trouble anaemia.
I had spells of vomiting, could not eat,
in fact, did not dare to, I had such dis
tress after eating. My stomach was filled
with gas which caused me awful agony.
The backache I suffered was at times
almost unbearable and the least exertion
made my heart beat so fast that I could
hardly breathe. But the worst of all was
the splitting neuralgia headache which
never left me for seven weeks. About this
time I had had several numb spells. My
limbs would bo cold and without any
feeling and the most deathly sensations
would come over me.
‘•Nothing had helped me until I bega *
taking Dr.Williams’ Pink Pills, in face,
I had grown worse every day. After T
had taken the pills a short time I coul'2
see that they were benefiting me anl
one morning I awoke entirely free froil
pain. The distress after eating disajs
peared and in three week's I could est
anything I wanted and suffer no incoii •
veuience. I also slept soundly. I haw
taken several boxes of the pills and have
gained in weight from 120 to 154 pounds
and am perfectly well now.”
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cure anaemia
because they actually make new blood.
For rheumatism, indigestion, nervous
headaches and many forms of weakness
they are recommended even if ordinary
medicines have failed. They are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

only safe way is to cure
the disease that causes
the pain, which can be
done by taking

French, of Batavia, 0., “with

"Yes. the prisoner was a woman of
extraordinary nerve. They tried in
every known way to make her nerv
ous."
"That so?”
“Yes. They shot off a gun unexpect
edly. yelled 'Fire!' and told her a dis
tant powder blast was an earthquake.
Still she was unmoved. Then they
liberated a mouse."
"I'll wager a bank roll against a
stogie that the mouse made her nerv
ous.”
“Not at all. She only stepped on
it and laughed."
“Great Jupiter! Such a woman as
that wouldn't lose her nerve if the
earth exploded.”
"Oh, yes. One of the detectives
stepped up and whispered in her ear
that her hair had been mussed up for
two hours, and then she collapsed.”
WILL UNCLE SAM
3E CALLED UPON TO STOP THE
ROW IN CUBA?
It Looks That Way, and the Queen of
the Antilles May Yet Belong
to the United States.
Havana.—‘'Neither side can whip
the other,” is the concise statement
now heard everywhere in Havana,
and it may also he fairly construed to
he the growing conviction of thought
ful persons throughout the island. In
Havana, at least, this conviction has
led all unprejudiced persons to ex
pressions of an ardent hope that the
prerogatives of the Platt amendment
will soon be utilized by the United
States for the purpose of effectually
putting an end to a condition that
everybody believes is otherwise bound
to grow more and more intolerable.
Nobody appears to believe that the
insurgents will take Havana, although
this is not regarded as impossible,
especially when it is considered that
co-operation in such a movement as
suredly would come from within.
Everybody concedes that the gov
ernment troops can continue their
record of victories in almost all open
fights with the insurgents, but how
the government, with the forces now
at its command and in view of the
small number of enlistments, can
ever prevail against its enemies who
fight in the same old method of guer
rilla warfare, is a conundrum which
nobody pretends to solve.
That the insurrection is growing
constantly is undeniably evidenced
every day, and the decree of pardon
recently extended by the government
has brought no appreciable change
in the situation. One of the few
Americans who joined the insurgent
ranks has come into Havana. He
was a farmer in Cuba for several
years past, and presumably is a reli
able source of information. He told
the correspondent of the Associated
Press that the 15,000 insurgents now
south of Artemisa, in scattered par
ties, shortly will concentrate with
others from the vicinity of Guanajay
and holding the entire width of Eas
tern Pinar del Rio province, they will
thus control the situation far better
than did the Spanish troops in thedays
of the famous trocha, and at precisely
the same points. The insurgents also
already have taken Cabanas and Ba
hia Honda, on the north coast of
Pinar del Rio province, and, accord
ing to conservative statements, they
have easily 75 per cent of the people
of this district with them.
Not Many Like Her.
San Francisco.—The world-famous
collection of precious stones and jew
elry, the property of the late Mrs.
Jane Stanford, valued at nearly
$1,000,000, will be sold by the trustees
of Lelaud Stanford Jr. University as
soon as possible. This action was de
cided upon at a meeting of the trus
tees held recently. Part of the col
lection will be disposed of at private
sale. Many offers from Western jew
elers are on file. Those not sold will
be put up at auction in New York and
London. Members of the board of
the university say that their action
Is merely carrying out the expressed
wrish of Mrs. Stanford that the jewels
be sold and that a library fund be
started with the proceeds, the income
of which shall be used for the pur
chase of books.
They Criticise Roosevelt.
London.—President Roosevelt’s de
cision to employ Chinese labor on the
Panama canal is criticised by labor
members of the House of Commons.
Keir Hardie, leader of the party, said:
"I hope the matter has not progressed
to the point of definite settlement
My views on the American question
of Chinese labor may be expressed
in a single sentence. I hope that
the people of the United States will
have learned from the experience of
the British government in South Af
rica, and will keep the Chinese out as
they would the plague. Chinese and
Chinese slavery under the conditions
which obtained in South Africa are
associated in the public mind. From
the form in which the news reached
us, I gather that the terms under
which Chinese are to be introduced
are almost identical with those which
governed their introduction into
South Africa. My sympathies are,
therefore, with the people of Amer
ica.”
Philadelphia.—Justice is to be
meted out to the men responsible
with Frank K. Hippie, the suiside
president of the Real Estate Trust
Company, for the collapse of that in
stitution. Announcement has been
made that the evidence so far un
earther by Receiver Earle has been
placed in the hands of District At
torney Bell, who is expected to cause
the arrest of the wreckers. The
names of the men under suspicion
were not made public. Receiver
Earles said. “The deeper I get into
this thing the worse 'it looks. The
trust funds which I herstofore thought
were intact have been tampered with,
and $f>0,000 taken. This sum is dis
tributed among $26,000,000 the bank
had in trust, and the loss will not be
heavy on anyone.”
From St. Petersburg to Mexico.
St. Petersburg.—Paxton P. Hibben,
formerly third secretary of the Amer
ican embassy here, who recently was
appointed secretary of the embassy
at Mexico City, has left for the United
States, whence he will go to assume
his new post.
New York—Col. William V. King,
superintendent of the New York Cot
ton Exchange, has completed his an
nual report for the season of 1906.
He figures the crop at 11,238,847
bales, as compared with 13,654,029 in
1904-05,
All Chemically Pure.
The mistaken idea of a few years
ago, about Alum in Baking' Powjers
being injurious, no longer prevails, or
scarcely exists. It. is a well estab
lished fact by chemical analysis that
Cream of Tartar being less volatile
than Alum, when exposed to heat, is
not entirely vaporized as is the case
with Alum, but leaves a residue in the
bread, which is injurious. Alum, on
the contrary, is entirely evaporated
while performing its function during
process of baking, leaving no atom of
injurious residuous substance. The
words “Chemically Pure" erroneously
used to designate Cream of Tartar
from Alum baking powder is a mis
nomer. Baking Powder made of pure
Alum is as chemically pure as made
from pure cream /of tartar. These
words mean nothing more nor less
than pure chemicals, and in no way
can they imply that one baking pow
der is Alum and another Cream of
Tartar. Alum has been declared to be
wholesome; an established fact. Ev
ery large water system in the cities
along the Missouri river use Alum in
large quantities to purify the water
before pumping it into their water
mains for consumption. Cream of Tar
tar baking powder is perhaps good
enough for any one; Alum baking
powder is better, and very much
cheaper.
'FRISCO'S CROP OF GENIUS.
Second Only to New York in Vigor
and Freshness of Its Literature.
New York is of course the great
American market for literary wares,
says E. S. Martin in Appleton's
Magazine. There is also a measure of
hospitality shown to writers and their
produets in Boston, Philadelphia, Chi
cago and Indianapolis.
But San Francisco for thirty years
past has beaten all four of these sub
sidiary literary centers in the fresh
ness and vigor of its inspirations.
It. has had an ocean of its own to
stimulate its imagination, a new coun
try behind and about it. and an ad
venturous and virile population that
has liked to live its own life in its
own way and dream and live its own
romances.
It has had money, too. It has sent
out its envoys to view the world (and
a good many of them have stayed
away), and because it has been one
of the world's great starting places
and landing places it has viewed ha
bitually from its own doorstep pretty
much every kind of human creature
that lws been worth looking at.
Altogether, San Francisco has been 1
like no other city of our republic.

Established.
Have you Chills of any variety, or
any other malarial trouble? If so,
use a bottle of Cheatham's Chill Tonic.
It's guaranteed. It’s not an experi
ment of one season, hut an established
twenty-year-old remedy that has never
been excelled.
It Is usually a great shock to a
woman to discover later in the game
that her husband knew exactly what
he was talking about.
1 f more than ordinary skill in playing brings the honors of the
game to the winning player, so exceptional merit in a remedy
ensures the commendation of the well informed, and as a rea
sonable amount of outdoor life and recreation is conducive to
the health and strength, so does a perfect laxative tend to one's
improvement in cases of constipation, biliousness, headaches,
etc. It is ail important, however, in selecting a laxative, to
choose one of known quality and excellence, like the ever
pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig
Syrup Co., a laxative which sweetens and cleanses the system
effectually, when a laxative is needed, without any unpleasant
after effects, as it acts naturally and gently on the internal
organs, simply assisting nature when nature needs assistance,
without griping, irritating or debilitating the internal organs in
any way, as it contains nothing of an objectionable or injurious
nature. As the plants which are combined with the figs in
the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to
act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met
with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well
worth considering in making purchases.
It is because of the fact that SYRUP OP FIGS
is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by
physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well
informed people, who would not use any remedy of uncertain
quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a
bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a
laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the
genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size
(only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name of the s
company—California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on k
the front of every package. Regular price, 50c per bottle. &
