A WIDOWS STRUGGLE,
HARD WORK BROUGHT ON A
SEVERE ILLNESS.
Nervous Prostitution, Dizziness and
Extreme Weakness DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills Came to Her
Rescue After Hospital Treatment
Failed.

In the town OF Fort William,
Canada, lives brave widow, who
for years has by dint of constant
labor kept the wolf from the door
aud her little family together. From
morning till night she toiled to pro-
vide comforts for her loved ones
until nature at last protested against
such constant drain on her strength,
and so she began to lose health. Soon
the slender frame became unable to
bear it's daily load OF toll, and the
poor mother was at last forced to
give up the unequal contest, and
become a burden where she had
once been the chief support. Ner-
vous prostration, heart disease,
consumption, and other names were
given to her malady by local physi-
clans, but months passed, during
which she suffered untold agony,
without finding any relief from her
sufferlngs. Palpitation of the heart,
dizziness, extreme pain in the chest,
loss Of appetite and nervousness
were some of the symptoms of the
disease, gatherings that caused excru-
ciating pain formed at the knee
joints asd other parts of the body,
and at last she became perfectly
helpless and unable to walk or even
SIT up. At this stage she as advised
to enter the hospit, !, that she might
have the benefit Of skilled nurses as
we'll as best medical treatment; but
after spending some time there with
out obtaining any relief tho poor
woman gave up all hope Of recovery
and asked to be taken home. So
-maciated and weak had she become
that her friends were shocked at her
appearance, and so utterly hopeless
was her condition that it was like
mockery to speak hopefully Of her
ultimate recovery. What then was
the establishment of all who had
known her dreadful condition to
hear that she had at last found a
remedy whose magical power at
once demonstrated the fact that
where there is life is hope. The
name of this remedy that worked
such wonderful change in such a
short time was DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, and after taking five boxes she
was able to walk about and visit her
friends. Her strength gradually
but surely returned and in few
months from the time she began
using the medicine she was able to
resume her work. The subject OF
this article, Mrs. Jane Marceille, is
we'll known: aud her youthful and
healthy appearance to-day causes
people to exclaim--wonders will
never cease. She attributes her
restoration to her family, solely to
the virtues to be found in DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills, and her experience
she hopes, may put some other sur,
fferer on the right road to health.
This great remedy enriches and
purifies the blood, strengthens the
nerves, aud in this way goes to the
root of disease, driving it from the
system, and curing when other rene
dies fail. Sold by all dealers il
medicine.

Attacked ON Two Sides.

Tine attempt OF The republican party to

y bmetallism by International agreement is
attacked both by silver and gold mono
TnetdIIiSIs The republican contention in
the recent campaign was that independent
free coinage Of silver at III to 1 meant
silver monometallism. and that the sup
pOrters of Mckinley were the real bimetal-
lists stree they were pledged to promote
the only genuine bimetallism. to wit that
W hich would result from an international
aGrt enent- The silverites now pronounce

The accusation of the silverite as voiced
recently III the Senate by Mr.. Dubois is
10 the effect that the republican party had
for years promised to make the figh. for
St Louis convention with him last year
made, and yCt mad finally come out for the
single gold standard The republican re-
ply is that this statement Is inaccurate
enough for place in the columns of a
Lordon newspaper What Mr.. Dubois and
his asscciates advocated last year was the
free coinage of silver at IL 10 1 as an in
dependent act by this government Never
in It's history did the republican party
promise to make that fight. 1t has done a
good deal for silver-all, in fact that has
been done in quarter of a century-but
II never engaged 20 20 that far. In fact.
II mad both in Congress and in national
corveEtions. distinctly refused. several
Tines. 10 go that far before il refused 10
do so last year. The ST. Louis convention,
in that particular. merely ratified tho
periys frequently defined position.
Meeting the other branch of the accusa-
tion republicans reply that the St Louis
convention did not declare for the single
gold standard. II declared for bimetallism
by International agreement. and engaged
to promote an effort to bring about such
agreement: and only twenty-f four hours be.

keeping faith as an individual? The po
