SClATIC RHEUMATISM AND IT'S
CunE,

From the Gazette. Burlington, Iowa.
The story OF Mr.. Tabor's nearly fatal
attack of sciatic rheumatism is familiar
To his large circle of acquaintance, but
for the benefit of others and those SIN
ilariy afflicted The Gazette has inveSti-
gated the matter for publication Mr..
Tabor is Secretary and Treasurer for
the Commercial Printing Company,
with offices in The Hedge Block. and re-
sides at AIT Basset Street. Burlington,
Iowa. A Gazette man sought an iutar-
view with Mr.. Tabor at his place OF
business to-day, and although ne was
busily engaged with imperative du-lss
he talked freely and feelingly on the
subject Of his recent severe Sickness and
subsequent wonderful cure.
Yes" said Mr.. Tabor, II can safely
say that l am a well man, that Is. nay
old trouble with rheumatism has en-
tirely disappeared, but / am stir taking
Pin Pills and will keep on taldag them.
as long as l continue to grow Stru"g o.
and healthier. as l have been every ras.
since began to use them. You will n0tt
wonder at my profound faith in the
merits OF Pink Pills after you have
heard what | nave to tell you. About
one year ago l was stricken suddenly
with sciatic rheumatism and was con-
fined to my bed. 1t grew worse and
rapidly assumed the form OF infamma-
tory rheumatism. ! suffered constant,
and acute pains and all the tortures
which that horrible disease is capable Of
inficting. At length under the constant
care of a local physician / was enabled
to return to my work, but only at inter
walls. Severe attacks would appear reg
ularly in my back and descend INTO my
leg and foot, and threatened to make me
a permanent cripple. | tried various
remedies fpr rheumatism, but without
any beneficial results. / grew pale, weak
aud h~aggard, and my family grew
alarmed at my condition.
About eight weeks ago my mother
induced me to try DIR. williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, and you know the
result. Before | had used one box ! felt
greatly relieved and much stronger. I
continued their use and improved rapid
ly. ! have now taken eight boxes md
feel like a new man and completely
cured.
In reply to inquiries Mr.. Henry. the
druggist, stated that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills were having a large sale, that 1t
was particularly gratifying to him to
know that the customers themselves
were highly pleased with the benefits.
they had derived from their use: that
many of them stated that the pills were
the only medium hat had done them.
any good: that they not only gave
them quick relief but permanent Lcre.
fit. That the pills do sell and that the
| pills do cure Is a certainty.
Or. Williams Pin Pills contain, in a
condensed form, all the elements nee
essary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
Pink Pills are sold in boxes only at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $3.50, and
may be had of all druggists, or direct by
mail from DIR. Williams Medicine CO,

4 Girls Luncheon.


You mean the school luncheon? Let

that when the recess hour comes she
may take an interest in what she eats.
\ dainty box or little basket. a fine,
soft napkin and ONE parattin paper
are Indispensable to the preparation
of lunches. Sandwiches must be made
Of thin bread and butter, with ported
meat. cream cheese or jam spread be
tween the slices. Rough edges and
crusts must be cut off. and the bread
and butter be of the very best. There
are mery delicious crackers, some

luncheon. And fruit is always in or
der.
Ii il is possible. and il usually is. to
get q little boiling water, let the school
girl make for herself a cup of bOuillon
at luncheon. There are several excel.
lent kinds of bouillon which come in
small jars and bottles, and of which a
spoonful added to n glass or cup of
either hot o cold water makes a very
refreshing drink. prefer hot bOuillon
myself, but cold bouillon is very re-
freshing. too, and much better with
bread and butter than cold water. if
the luncheon is a simple affair of that.
