Summer Homes.

In the lake regions of Wisconsin,
Northern Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa
and Dakota. there are hundreds of
charming localities pre-eminently fitted
for summer homes. Nearly all are
located on or near lakes which have not
been fisbed out. These resorts are
easily reached 10y railway and range in
variety from the full dress for dinner"
tn the flannel-shirt costume for every
meal. Among the list are names
familiar To many of our readers as the
perfection of Northern summer resorts.
Nearly all of the Wisconsin points of
interest are within IA short distance from
Chicago or Milwaukee, and none of them
are SD far away from the "busy marts
of civilization" that they cannot be
reached in a few hours of travel, by
frequent trains, over the finest road in
the northwest-the Chicago, Milwaukee
~ st. Paul Railway. A description of
the principal resorts, with list of summer

HUSBAND
and wife
Mr.. and Mrs. c. H. Cline'S Expert
enCe and Marvellous Escape.
Life had Become Burden and She Thought She
was Going to Die.

From the Industrial NetCs, Jackson, Mich.
Mrs. c. II. Cline, who lives on the corner
of Perrine and Pearl Streets Jackson, Mich,
has for two years been troubled with indiges-
ton and nervous prostration, her heart would
apparently stop beating. She would suffer
great pain, in fact she honestly thought she
was going to die. Her troubles were brought
on by severe attack of la grippe. Sleep
was nearly stranger to her for all this time,
and life had become a burden TO her until she
was advised by friendly neighbors who had
used DIR. Williams Pink Pills to give them
trial, which she did, and ii would be hard to
find more grateful woman in Michigan than
Mrs. G. ii. Cline, as prominent physicians
had given her up, while to-day she is able TO
body as one would like to visit. She used
three Pink Pills a day only, the last one just
before retiring which always insured her a
good nights rest.
Mrs. Cline 10 only thirty years old and
could Ill afford to let her life slowly ebb away
II 10 difficult for one 10 describe her ailments
but We can say to all afflicted that if they
will call or write to Mrs. Cline they will not
only be thoroughly convinced of the merits of
these little friends, for she persists in calling
them SUCH but she will also tell you of her
marvellous cure, and we can guarantee that
she will convince you that she owes her life to-
day to DR.. Williams Pink Pills which she
would not be without for its weight in gold
This evidence is only a repetition of what
all people say who have tried this wonderful
remedy It's as faithful a friend as one could
possibly introduce into their household, never
falling always reliable in times of great suffer
ing and danger. Now to show how sincere she
was she mentioned that she induced her hus-
band Mr.. G. III. Cline, to try the remedy,
everybody around here knows the affable and
efficient Charlie who for the last ten years has
been in the employ of the Michigan Central
Railroad and who was sorel afflicted with ex-
cruciating pains in the chest and also with one
Of the severest attacks of sciatic rheumatism,
the most dreaded despoiler Of home comforts.
In one hour from being struck with one Of his
spells he would be as helpless as an infant ten
days old, to-day Mrs. Cline assures us that
now there is not more able or healthy man
standing up in Jackson employed by the Mich
igan Central Railroad than her husband, who
never had another attack of the dreaded and
painful disease and one box of the Pink Pills
cured him permanently
