A YOUNG GIRLS TRIALS.
Nervous Troubles End in St. Vii
 tus' Dance.
Physicians PowerIess-The Story Told by
 the ChfId's Mother.
tFrom the Reporter, Somerset. Ky1

lfTOm the tSepOrbers somerset. Ky,
 Among the foot hills of the Cumberlan Mountains, near the town of Flat Rock is the happy home of James McPherron. Four months ago the daughter of the fam fly, a happy girl of sixteen, was stricken with St. Vitus' dance The leading physi> clans were consulted but without avail. She grew pale and thin under the terrible nerv- ous strain and was fast losing her mental powers. In fact the thought of placing her ln an asylum was seriously considered. Her case has been so widely talked about that the report of her cure was like modernizing miracle of old. To reporter who visited the home the mother said
 ''Yes, the reports of my daughters sick. ness and cure are true as you hear them. Her aff1iction grew into St. Yitus' dance from an aggravated form of weakness and nervous trouble peculiar to her sex. Every source of help was followed to the end, but it seemed that physicians and medicine were powerless. Day by day she grew worse un- til we despaired of her life. At times she al- most went into eonvulsions. Shegot so that we had to watch her to keep her from wan dering away and you can imagine the care she was.
 About the time when our misery was greatest and all hope had fled, read of another case, almost similar, that had been cured by medicine known as Dr Williams Pink Pills. Almostin desperationI secured some of the pills and from that day on the wonderful work of restoration commenced; the nervousness left, her cheeks grew bright with the color of health, she gained flesh and grew strong both mentally and physi- cally until to-day she is the very picture of good health and happiness.
 Ut is no wonder that speak in glowing terms of Pink Pills to every ailiug person 1 meet. They saved my daughters life and am grateful.''
 The foregoing is but one of many wonder ful cures that have been credited to Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People h many cases the reported cures have been investigated by the leading newspapers and verified in every possible manner. Their fame has spread to the far ends of civiliza- tion and there is hardly a drug store in this country or abroad where they cannot be found.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are now given to the public as an unfailing blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all forms of weakness arising from a Watery condition of the blood or shattered nerves. The pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price (50 cents box, or six boxes for >256-theY are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by addressing Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. '.

ADVENTURE OF JIM AND JOHN
Wanted to See the World and Landed
in Whittier
An Object Lesson for Silly Youths Who Aim
to Be Toughs and Worthless
Characters

The adventures OF Jim Lyme and John
James, two boys who started out to
see the world and the state of Texas, with
its wild Comanches more particularly, in
the old fashion of many years ago, have
come to very common, plain end, by
their retirement, pending minority, in the
Whittier state school. There were no hair
breadth or thrilling episodes in their esca
pades but their story will be good reading
with an object lesson in the sting, for
youths who are anxious to see the world,
fight Indians, be cowboys and worthless
characters III general, instead of being
good and the pride of their parents.
Jim Lyme and John James wanted to
travel. Lyme had a horse but no blankets,
and James had blankets but no horse, SO
he stole Fred Gross old white mare, which
was expensive at SIS, and the other youth
contrived to purloin the needed rugs.
Bidding no one adieu, the two adventur-
ers went away OF horseback in the dark,
believing that Los Angeles would know
them no more for many day and aye.
They travelled by forced marches out into
the great county OF San Diego, on their
way to the Lone Star State. Their geo
graphy was rusty, but all ways lead to
Rome, and Jim and John had more time
time was unlimited while their capital
consisted OF only $l.70.
In these days of progress forced marches
on old plugs are OF no avail against the
railroad and the telegraph, and after Jim
Lyme and John James had been mean
dering in the hills and dales around
Oceanside until they couldn't tell the
North Star from the Southern Cross they
boo-hooded and gave themselves up for
lost in the wild steppes OF the great Far
West. When the Constable who arrested
them hove in sight they hailed him with
effusion as the great guide of the San
Jacinto range, who was to lead them back
to civilization. Instead of that the
minion of the law showed them in the
calaboose and coniiscated their outfit.
The commissarat OF the two h ids
consisted of one loaf of bread and can
of corn beef, their artillery OF broken
revolver, and their stock of the knock
kneed gelding and Gross old white mare
The cash assets. in nickels and dimes of
this great aggregation OF vealy nonsense
and silly hoodlumism amounted, us said
before, to Sl.70.
Deputy Sheriff Martin Aguirre brought
back the two adventurers who were
charged with grand larceny and placed in
the county jail. First John James was
sent to Whittier to learn trade and be
drilled into submission. This morning it
will be Jim Lynes turn. His mother, a
kind and very respectable woman, who
deserved better OF her son, was permt tied
10 make complaint against him as an in
corrigiblc youth, beyond her control, and
on that showing he will be ordered com
mitted until his majority to the reform
atory of Southern California.

recover $1,000 on policy issued to her

fact that the supreme Tent was informed
