KNOW THYSELF.
Science Helps You to Be Your
Own Doctor.
The Story of q Woman Who Kept Posted
on the Work of Science and Saved
Her Own Life.
From the Era. Bradford. Pa

Too few people are acquainted with the
rapid advance of medical science, and too
many doctors are still plodding in the old
paths. Once it comes to pass that people
abreast of the worlds knowledge, much of
our suffering will come to an end. Medic
al scientists are not delving into the depths
of knowledge for the mere benefit of brother
physicians, but for the benefit of the
world. They place in the hands of the well
man means of keeping well, in the hands
of the sick a means of recovery. To the
parent they give the power Of saving the
child. Science is working for you-Wil1 you
accept the profered help?
Mrs. George RoWend, an estimable lady
who resides at No. 216 East Main Street,
has cause to feel grateful toward the
science of medicine.
One day recently, a reporter, learning that
Mrs. RoWend had been greatly benefited by
the use of new medicine, interviewed her.
She stated that she had been suffering with
female trouble for many years. She had
been doctored for the ailnent for long
time-in fact, nearly all her ife--and had
never received anything more than tempo
rary relief. During the last three years her
condition grew worse and was aggravated
by an affection of the heart. Her health was
so poor that she found it almost impossible
to perform her household duties.
Il never believed in proprietary medi-
cines,'' said Mrs. Rowend, ''but one day last
fall read an article in a newspaper which
told of the cures effected by DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, and decided to try the medi-
cine. Before had taken the contents of
one box began to feel better. The depress-
ing weakness which had bothered me for so
many years began to disappear, and the ac-
lion of the heart at once became stronger
and more regular.
81 took nine boxes of the pills and I am
now feeling better than have for several
years, and I have unbounded faith in the
medicine
Mrs. Rowend is steadily gaining in health
and strength and gives all the credit for her
restoration to health to DR.. Williams Pink
| Pills for Pale People.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new life and
| richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are for sale by all druggists,
or may be had by mail from DR.. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, n. Y, for
| SO cents per box, or six boxes for $2.50

HAS PARALYzED RAILROADS
George j. Gould Says the Interstate Com.

George j. Gould Says the Interstate Com
merce Law Should Be Changed.
DALLAS, Tex, April 13.-George j.
Gould. who is here attending the an
nual meeting of the Texas & Pacific
railway, in an interview on the inject
of railroads, among other things, said:
What we need is some legislation looking to
the relief of the railroads. Two-thirds of the
railroads Of the country either in the hands
of receivers or have recently been reorganized
and are trying it again. I attribute this bank
ruptcy of the railroads of the country almost
entirely to the operations of the interstate
commerce law. That law has paralyzed the
railroads and they will never prosper again
until it is repealed, nor will you any more
road building while that law is in effect. The
laws are too oppressive on invested capital
The repeal of the interstate commerce law, for
instance, would help the country amazingly by
permitting existing roads to prosper. and by
encouraging the building Of other roads. This
would throw life into the railroads and other
collateral industries at once.

CROP OUTLOOK
The Prospects Reported Good In Kansas
and Oklahoma.

The Prospects Reported Good In Kansas
and Oklahoma.
New YORK, April IA director of
the Atchison says that the southwest
ern traffic situation is in much better
shape than it has been, and that the
outlook is favorable for an absolute
maintenance of rates, as result of the
agreements that have been reached
covering the Southwest Traffic and
iTranscontinental associations terri
tory. In Southern California the crop
outlook is favorable. The same is true
of Kansas, with the exception of a
small belt in the western section,
where it has been dry. Wheat in the
eastern and central belts of Kansas is
growing nicely, and is holding its own
in the western belt The reported
damage from high winds is confined to
sandy land on the western edge. The
ground is in excellent condition from
spring planting and seeding. In Okla
homa wheat prospects continue good
without any report of damage. A
sample just received from this section
shows a growth of from - to IA inches.
with an excellent root. The ground
thereabo is in good condition for
spring seeding. In Texas the crop out
