r W. Edwards, of Lansingburg, was
FRUSTRATED by sunstroke during the war,
and it has entailed on him peculiar and Sc
rious consequences. At present writing
Mr.. f. is prominent officer of Post Lyon,
G. A. r., Cohoes and a past aide de camp on
the staff of the commander-in-chief of AL
bany Co. In the interview with reporter,
he said:
II was wounded and sent to the hospital
at Winchester. They sent me together with
others TO Washington-a ride of about 100
miles. Having no room in the box cars we
were placed face up on the bottom of fiat
cars. The sun beat down upon our unpro-
tected heads. When reached Washington
| was insensible aud was unconscious for
ten days while in the hospital. An abscess
gathered in my ear and broke; it has been
gathering and breaking ever since. The
result of this l00-mile ride and sunstroke
was heart disease, nervous prostration, in
somnia and rheumatism. A completely
shattered system which gave me no rest
night or day. AS a last resort l took some
Pink Pills and they helpedme to wonder
full degree. My rheumatism is gone, my
heart failure, dyspepsia and constipation
are about gone, and the abscess in my ear
has stopped discharging and my head feels
as clear as bell when before it felt as
though IL would burst, and my once shat
tered nervous system is now nearly sound.
Look at those fingers" Mi Edwards said,
''do they look as if there was any rheuma-
tism theref' he moved his fingers rapidly
and freely and strobe about the room like a
young boy. "A year ago those fingers were
gnarled at the joints and so stiff that ] could
not hold pen. My knees would swell up
and could not straighten my leg out. My
joints would squeak when l moved them.
That is the living truth.
"When came to think that / was going to
be crippled with rheumatism, together with
the rest of my ailments, | tell you life
seemed not worth living. | suffered from
dependency. | cannot begin To tell you,n
said Mt Edwards, as he drew long breath,
what my feeling is at present. | think If
you lifted ten years right off my life and
left me prime and vigorous at fOrty-seven,
/ could feel no better. i was an old man
and could only drag myself painfully about
the house. Now | can walk of without any
trouble. That in itself, continued Mr..
Edwards, would be sufficient 10 give me
cause for rejoicing, but when you come TO
consider that / am no longer what you
might call nervous and that my heart is APP
parently nearly healthy, and that / can
sleep nights, You may realize why may APP
pear speak in extravagant praise of Pink
Pills These pills quiet my nerves, take
that awful pressure from my head, and at
the same time enrich my blood. There
seemed to be % circulation in my lower
limbs a year ago, my legs being cold and
clammy at times. Now the circulation
there is as full and as brisk as at any other
part of my body. / used to be so light

the floor of my house Spring is coming

Human nature is much alike in
every city, town, vill3ge and hamlet,

repeats itself because We are practically
reproductions Of orr fhthers and moth

clusion q. any mindf bent upon office
seeking will be prone 10 be: "But If
had an office, would save my money
for rainy day." Bt you would do
nothing of the kind. You would do
just as other men and women like unto

things. We naturally fall into the

when you realize the Strength of temp

The kerosene emulsion is valuable for
those insects which suck. The great
objection to it, the bother of preparing
an emulsion, has been done away
with by a recent invention which
forms a mechanical mixture of the oil
