A Thankful Girl.
From the Examiner. San Eran

FROM the Examiner, San Francisco, Cal.
Miss Lottie Donell lives with her parents
at 702 Natoma Street, San Francisco. She
is a young. lady nineteen years of age, and Of
was ten years old Miss Donell has been q
sufferer from a rheumatic affection of the
wrist, and since she was thirteen years of
age she has been subject to various female
weaknesses which have kept her physical
vitality at a very low stage. Thus, as she
says, she has been a victim of disease ever
since she can remember. When she was
a little girl at school she was always placed
at a disad vantage with her playmates on &C.
count of her frailty of body and timidity Of
manner. She could never join in any of the
more boisterous games, although she always
longed TO do so.
But the embarrassing conditions of Miss
Donell's life have all been eliminated with.
in the past year, and the change is wholly
due to the effective work of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills.
ut must be remembered" said Miss
Donell in telling of the great relief that DR..
Williams Pills had afforded her, that at
the time I began taking the pills | had been
for years a confirmed invalid. My wrist was
swollen out of all proportion by the chronic
rheumatism that had long since settled in it.
The female complaints from which | had so
long suffered had wasted my body away until
| was but a mere shadow of my former self
and | had really come to think hat the
brightness and happiness of life was not
meant for me. I had not the energy to per.
form even the most simple of my household
duties, and, in a word I was completely run
down. l began to take DIR. Williams Pills
while / was in this condition and before 1
had taken half a box of them I realized that
they were doing me good. l began to feel
lively again and to lose the lax feeling in
my limbs. l felt so happy over the momen.
tary relief that had been afforded me that I
resolved to continue taking the pills. After
taking several more boxes / was more than
convinced of the high merits of the pills, for
l was then wholly relieved from the rheu-
matte pains in my wrist and ! had 30 far re-
gained my vitality of body that l really
believed / had never experienced the ener-
waiting effects Of those wasting diseases which
are so peculiar to women. 1t is a very great
pleasure to me to be able to tell my young
lady friends of the relief that has been az
forded me by DR.. Williams Pills and / will
surely continue TO recommend their use to
all who are afflicted with the complaints
from which I suffered"
Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be
sent posi- paid on receipt of price, so cents q

The Actress and Her Train.

The English stage has certain Gus
toms which greatly hurt a Frenchman
who is not used to them. The last scene
Of every act is constantly interrupted,
and sometimes in the most interesting
part, by the tinkling Of Il little bell,
which apprises the music to be ready to
play in the interval between the acts.
The actresses who perform the principal
characters drag long trains after them,
which have but four corners, like u car
pet, the breadth proportional to the i'm
portance of the character, and they are
followed by a little boy i'll quality Of a
train bearer, who is as inseparable from
them as the shadow from the body.
This page, who is sprucely dressed and
muftled up in a livery made to suit his
stature within two or three inches,
keeps his eye constantly fixed upon the
train of the princess, sets it to rights
when it is wei so little rufled or
disordered and is seen to run after it
with all his might when a violent emo
ton makes the princess hurry from one
side of the stage to the other. This he
does with all the phlegm and serious
hess natural to the English.
In one play in the scene between
the king and the quentin the mo-
ment which is to separate them forever
the king flies into the arms of the queen,
who embraces her royal consort, and
they continue clasping each other in
transport, which excites in the whole
audience the strongest emotions''-who
can be affected to so high a degree as
not to take notice of the attention of
the little page to repair the disorder
which the queens train constantly re-
| ceives as she stirs and moves with i'm,

DUCHESS TO CRIPPLE
THE DUKE OF MARLBOROUGH TOLD
HIS FlANCEE A PITlFUL STORY.

It Was ut Dinner With Mrs. Alva and
Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt Then the
Light of Plenty Shone In the Wretched
Home.
There is a little girl in New York to
whom the sound Of the words MARI
borough Vanderbilt" is the sweetest
music, and as she hears it tears of graft
tude creep down her cheek.
She is a cripple, and the dark. poorly
furnished room that she calls home is
in the eighteen hundreds of Third ave,
nue..
For years she has been bedridden,
but although a hopeless cripple she sup
ports an aged invalid mother.
The earnings that kept the wolf from
the door were from the daughters hand
icraft in papier mache. She makes
plaques that are facsimile duplicates of
postage stamps. Her work is SO deft
hat the plaques find a ready market in
the art centers and the homes Of the
wealthy. Naturally the child's greatest
difficulty is in getting unconventional
or unique postage stamps. These are to
be had only from foreign countries.
When the little plaquemaker learned
that wedding presents were being re-
ceived by the Duke of Marlborough for
his bride, and that they were being re-
turned to their donors, her heart sank,
for among the few who have interested
themselves in her behalf is a clerk at
the Plaza hotel, where the duke was
staying, and through him she hoped tc
get the foreign stamps from the dukes
mail matter.
This disappointment was shared by
the clerk, but when the beautiful bridal
castle arrived the clerk saw his oppor'
| tunity and forthwith wrote a note to the
Duke Of Marlborough telling him Of the
hopes Of the little cripple. Immediately
there came a reply from the duke, say
ing that he had requested his secretary,
Mr.. Morris, 10 see that the postage
stamps which had brought the flowers
were turned over to the little plaque
maker.
But what made the little cripple
heart leap was a little piece Of paper
which bore the inscription "Marlbor
ough," and which vas equivalent a
the dukes American bankers for NOR
than a dozen plaques, Eel at the top
most prices.
That evening when the duke dinet
with the mother of the young woman
who is now his duchess he told Of tn
little cripple. The fair Mrs. Alva Van
derbilt and the dainty Consuelo wer
touched. They sent their agents to fin
the girl. They found her condition eve
more pitiable than the duke had de
scribed.
1t was early on the next morning tina
a great box Of cut flowers arrived at tn
dingy room where the crippled girl live
with her invalid mother. In it a not
read:
:, These few roses are from the brid;
table Of the Duchess of Marlborough
and they are sent with the love and sil
cerity Of the mother of the bride at ii
brides request"
With it was q check 80 large that Il

pale, complains of weakness, is "tired out
upon the slightest exertien; if she is trou-
blcd with headache or hackache, pain in the
side; if her temper is titful and her appetite
poor, She is in q condition of extreme peril,
a fit subject for the development of that
most dreadful of all di>eases-consumption.
If you notice any of these symptoms lose no
time in procuring DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
They viii assist the patient to develop prop
erly and regularly ; they will enrich the
blood and restore health's roses to tbs
checks, bright eyes and a lightness of step
will surely follow their use, ami all danger
of consumption and premature death will be

insist upon their daughters taking DIR. viii.

period of puberty, and thus avoid all chances
