REMARKABLE RECOVERY
or Young Lady OF Gasport, New YORK,
from Anaemia.
From Me Cowier, Bufaio, ". y.

From he Courier, Buffalo, ". Y
Miss Lulu Stevens. daughter of George
stevens. the well-known blacksmith, OF Gas
port, Niagara, County. New York, has sur
prised her neighbors considerably, by not
dying Ave months ago. when the physicians
said she could not live.
This was quite remarkable case The
young woman, who IL very well known, on
account Of her musical ability. had been n
very healthy girl, until about one year ago,
when she began TO fail, and grew so pale
and apparently bloodless dnd SO weak that
after n few months she was given up TO die.
Last winter "a physician VINO was II visitor
Mt Gasport met Miss Stevens, and seeing her
emaciated condition, and hearing from the
local doctors that the dssuse was anaemia,
prevailed on the girls mother to make her
try DIR. Williams Pink Pills. Directly she
commenced the treatment she began to
mend, aud now since February. when she
decided to take them, she has become well
and strong and the picture OF good health.
The mother Of the girl, Mrs. Stevens, says:
every one In Gasport knows that Pink
Pills cured Lulu, aud | feel very thankful
that We heard of them in time to save my
chtld's life"
DIR. Williams Pink pills contain, in a con-
densed form, all the elements necessary to
give new life aud richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are also a
specific for troubles peculiar to females,
such as suppressions, Irregularities and all
forms OF weakness. They build up the blood,
and restore the glow of nenlth to pale and
salow cheeks. In men they affect radical
cure in all cases arising from mental worry,
overwork or exccsses OF whs,ever nature.
Pink Pills are sold in boxes (never in loose
bulk) Mt so cents n box or six boxes for
81 30, and may be had of all druggists, or
direct by mail from DIR. Williams Medicine

The Foreign Office is not surprised at the
proposed annexation. We simply protested
against It. The Importance Of the islands Will
be immensely increased by the construction or
the Nicaragua or Panama Canal and IT is abb
solutey necessary therefore to leave the country
independent In voyaging to the far East
steamers starting from Europe or America must
call at Hawaii To have them Incorporated into
the Union would seriously involve international
interests in the Pacific Ocean. Another reason
is this: Annexation would impair the rights ana
privileges which Japan is enjoying in Hawaii
The protest was, therefore, entered on these
grounds. Leaving aside the attitude or other
Powers the question is. What will Japan DO H.
under any circumstances the annexation Is car.

Japan? Japan must oppose II to the utmost
