pleasing to the eye and gratified all
lovers of the beautiful The room

especially relitted for the serving Of
lunch and thirty waxen candles in

The new woman, having had a shy at
almost everything that's going nova
days, has concluded that she wants to be
an office boy. Office girl is the correct
term, but it is difficult to get used to it
all at once. One day last week the latest
of the leviathan Office buildings of our
city was honored by little visitor
who popped its golden head into the
door Of every one of its many offices.
"Please, sir" said the head, "do you
want an Office girl?"
The head was apparently that Of an
l or II year old, and the sturdy little
boy that supported it-and remained
outside the door-was trinity clad in a
short frock. To every Office, including
those on the s'teenth floor, went the
little head, and everywhere it asked the
same question, 'Do you want an office
girl!" When last seen, it was leaving
the building wearing an expression of
countenance which might be interpreted,
Nil desperandum this is only one
office building; there are others. -

A FRANK STATEMENT,

Reporter of Her Recent Ill
ness and Cure,

Reporter of Her Recent Ill
ness and Cure.
From the World. Herald, Fairhaven, Wash.
Mrs. R. G. Peterson, of Fairhaven,
Wash, who has been for a number of
years sufferer from nervous porstra.
tlon, rheumatism and female weakness,
and who has lately entirely recovered
thereform, was called upon few days
ago by Herald representative whose
attention had been called to her case.
In answer to an enquiry, Mrs. Peterson
said:
Yes, was sufferer for many years
from nervous attacks, rheuamtism and
other complaints. We, my husband
and l, expended a large sum of money
in visiting the celebrated doctors of
Denver, Salt Lake City and San Fran
cisco, but my relief in all cases was
only temporary, and we had nearly
despaired of my ever recovering my
health, when, one day friend advised
DIR. Williams Pink Pills, saying they
had known of case very similar to
mine, where wonderful cure had been
effected by their use.
Acting upon this advice, as a last
remedy, nay husband purchased box
OF the Pink Pills more to please my
friend than any belief in the medicine.
However, before the box was half gone
l felt decided change for the better
and after using three boxes was en-
tirely recovered, and felt as we'll and
strong as l ever did.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have GER
tainly been wonderfully effective
remedy for me, and have no hesi-
fancy in recommending them to any
one who was affected as 1 was.'
DIR. Williams Pink Pills ara not
looked upon as a patent medicine. but
rather as a prescription. An analysis
of their properties shows that they con-
tain, in condensed form, all the ele-
ments necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shat

ataxia, partial paralysis, st. Vitus'

nervous headache, the after effects of

feeling resulting from nervous pros
tration, all diseases resulting from
vitiated humors in the blood, such
as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc.
