A TERkIBLE RIDE.
From the Times, Buffalo. N. Y.

From the Times, Buffalo, N. Y.
Along one of the dismal roads In
Western New York, a man and wife
were driving as rapidly as the darkness
and inclement weather would permit.
The rain beat down upon the rubber
covering and found its way into every
crack and opening. The occupants OF
the buggy were Dean Jones and his
wife. of Sprngville, N. Y. Everybody
IS familiar with the name. He is the
well-known starting judge who has be-
come famous for his impartial and fair
treatment Of Jockeys at the post.
1t was about ten years ago when
Mr.. and Mrs. Jones took that fateful
ride that came near costing her her
life. Mrs. Jones clothes were thorough
ly soaked before town was reached.
There was no fire in their hotel room
and she became chilled to the bone be-
fore the little blaze the attendant start
ed warmed the atmosphere. From that
time on Mrs. Jones was an Ill woman.
Her trouble--well, 1t was about every
ching with which human flesh can be
afflicted. She had a strange, queer
feeling in her head, that felt as II sew
eral shot were rolling around loose on
her brain. Pen cannot describe the
torture she suffered. Local doctors told
her she had water on the brain. A
Times reporter called upon Mrs. Jones,
who said:
Ever since that terrible wetting
received, up to year ago, l was an
invalid. / had terrible neuralgia pains
In the head which often went to my
feet and limbs. 1 was often in such a
terrible state that had to use a crutch
to get around or else slide chair be-
fore me to move about the house. l
was very i'll for five years. in spells,
and never expected to get well. 1t was
blood disease, 1 guess. One of the
II tAI bn1 cJn ta6
blood in my head, and perhaps 1 did.
He could not cure me, neither could
several other doctors I tried. l also
used many patent medicines, but they
did me no good. My complexion was
perfect white, and my ears 50 transpar-
ent you could look through them.
My blood was turning to water.
Look at me now; do l look sick?'
The reporter was forced to admit
that he had seldom seen Il more per-
feet embodiment of health.
With pardonable pride Mrs. Jones
said: "Dr. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People did 1t. 1 can go anywhere
DIR. Williams remedy 1 could not move
out of the house. For three years,
would you believe 1t, did not even go
to church. l was not always confined
TO my bed, but could not leave the
house. Wherever L go, people say:
why, Mrs. Jones, how well you are
looking. How did it happen?' and
always tell them Pink Pills did it.
l have not had the slightest touch
of my old illness for the last six
months, and feel as If never had been
i'll in my life"
Mr.. Jones said: you can readily
imagine how highly we regard the
remedy in this house, where we have
had wife and mother restored to per-
feet health"
DR.. williams Pink Pills are sold by
all dealers, or will be sent post paid
on receipt OF price $50 cents a box, or
six boxes for S2.50-they are never sold
in bulk, or by the 1907 by addressing

Bots and Champs Elysee loungers with
envy of her clothes and turnouts what
time the Vanderbilt divorce was on the
tapis, is again In evidence with equip
ages OF the newest and finest, and an
other New York millionaire has set the
tongues of tout Paris wagging.
The funny part of the affair is that
the millionaire accredited with the
present episode is well past the half
century and up tc the present time has
lived with the regularity of an oldtime
New England deacon, without sus-
picion of wild oats about him.
In his youth and early manhood,

Lady Annabel motioneG for Waller 70
assist her to the carriage. He did. so,
folding his arm carefully around her to
steady her faltering steps, and yet 1:
was the Annabel Marston he had laugh,
himself to abhor AID desplse. She
smiled mO,.rnfuily at his assiduous care
for her, and said, family:
go home with me, Walter, and you
shall know the secret of the mournful
story. Perchance you may feel more
sympathy with your fathers destroyer
than you have believed possible"
Walter took the seat beside her, and
though not another word was spoken,
never removed his eyes from the wan,
deathly face that lay back YEARLY
against the cushions. Was this the
proud, stately, admired woman before
whom nobility and genius bowed In
homage? that Lady Annabel whose per-
lection and superiority shamed even
the virtuous? the woman who had de-
liberately deceived a loving, trusting
heart, sold herself for dross, dipped her
fair hands in crime? No wonder Wal
ter walked as in a dream when he fol-
lowed up the polished staircase to the
luxurious, elegant room Of Lady Ann
abel.
Eleanor's pale face just looked in a
moment, and was vanishing, when her
mother called her.
