Paralysis Follows Bloodlessness and
Nervous Prostration.
A PATIENT WOMAN AFFLICTED
FOR YEARS.
She Tells How at Layt She Was Per.
mancntly Cured.

From the Press. Ne,c York City.
For more than fifteen years, Mrs. A..
Mather, who lives at No. 43 East One
Hundred and Twelfth street, New York,
spite Of the treatment of physicians, grad
ually developed into nervous prostration
until finally marked symptoms of paraly-
sis set in. Mrs. Matlcr gladly gave the
reporter her experience.
For many years Mrs. Mather said,
II was a constant sufferer from nervous
ness. 1t was about fifteen years ago that
my condition began TO grow worse. Soon
i became so affected that I was prostrat-
ed and, until about two years ago. was n
part Of the time unable to leave my bed.
employed several physicians from time
to time, my bills ut the drug store for
prescriptions sometimes amounting to as
did FOR me did not seem to help me TT all.
Ny blood became greatly impoverished
and after years of suffering | was threat
ened with paralysis.
When ! walked l could scarcely drag
my feet along, and at times my knees
fall down. Feeling that doctors could
not help me, l had little hope of recovery,
until one day l read i'll n newspaper how
a person. afflicted almost the same as !

effect of this, first box pleased me so much
that l bought another. Before l had
taken all the pills IN the first box l began
to experience relief and, after the third
box had been used, l was practically cur
ed. 1t was really surprising what n speedy
and pronounced effect the medicine had
upon me.
Il always keep DR.. Williams Pink
Pills in the house now, and when l feel
any symptoms of nervousness find that
they give me certain relief
When Mrs. Mathcr talked with the re-
porter she was dressed for the street, in
tending to so out for q walk. She looked
the picture Of health, far different than
she did before taking the Pink Pills.
Mrs. Mather's daughter. Miss Anna.
corroborated her mothers account, and
told how she herself had been cured of
chronic indigestion by these pills; and,
TOO. how her cousin had been cured Of
anaemia in same way.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills contain, in a

sary to give new life and richness to the

The Useless Ones

lue useless OneSs
Poets should not reason;
Let them sins;
Argument is treason
Bells should ring.
Statements none. nor questionrr
Gnomic words.
Spirlt-cries, suggestions,
Like the birds.
He may use deduction
Who may preach:
He may praise instruction
Who must teach.
But The poet duly
Fills his part
When the sons bursts truly
From his heart.
For no purpose springing;
For no pelf.
He must do the singing
Fol itself.
Not in lines austerely
Let him build:
Not the surface merely
Let him gild.
Fearless, unlimited,
Like a spring.
Opal-words, inlighted,
Let him sing.
AS the leaf grows sunwat
Song must grow;
As the stream flows onward
Song must low.
Useless? Ay-for measures;
Roses die,
But their breath gives pleasure
God knows why!

And living air, and sunlight gold.
And wood and meadow. pray with me-.

The Orchard lands of Long Ago.

The orchard lands of long ago

The now blossoms back to me,
And all the buds that used to be
Blow back along the grassy ways
OF truant feet, n lift the haze
OF happy summer from the trees
That trail their tresses In the seas
OF grain that float and overflow
The orchard lands of long ago!
Blow back the melody that slips
In lazy laughter from the lips
That marvel much that any kiss
Is sweeter than the apple Is.
Blow back the twitter of the birds;
The lisp. the litter, n the words
OF merrlment that found the shine
OF summertime n glorious wine,
That drenched the leaves that loved it SC
in orchard land OF long E

Where rosy-hellied p.pplns cling,
And golden russets CLINT and CLEAN
AS In the old Arablan dream
The fruits of that enchanted tree
The glad Aladdin robbed for me
And drowsy winds, awake and fan
My blood as when 1t overran,
A heart ripe as the apples grow,
In orchard Ian of long ago!

years OF age. They We're near neighbors
and nearly seventy years ago were en-
gagged to be married. Both We're wealthy
and belonged to leading Canadian fam
lilies. The lady was a sister of the late
Judge Tessicr of the court of the queens
bench, says the Philadelphia Telegraph.
Mr.. B%ailIiarge received his title OF
chepalier from the pope. For many
years past he had maintained four mis-
sionary churches, one in each OF the
four quarters of the world, besides con-
tr.buting hundreds of thousands of dol
lars to the construction of Roman Cath
Ole churches and converts in Quebec.
He was the owner of the famous Dra-
peau de Carlton, the old flag for which
the French-Canadian people have such
q sentimental reverence, from the fact
that it was brought back from h espe-
dition of 1858 to Lake Chanplain and
Lake George.
