Thirty Pounds in Thirty Days.
REMARKABLE GAIN In WEIGHT OF
A CALIFORNIA MINER.

A Physical Wreck and Not Expected to
IIye-He Begins the Use Of Pink Pills
and in Three days is Able to walk
His Friends Confederate His
Testimony.
From fAe Republican, Santa Rosa, Cal.
Here is a true story from California:
Some three years ago, James Ii.
Falkner, of Santa Rosa. while pros
pecting, discovered quicksilver mine,
and while preparing to work it, was
alone OH his ranch, far from anyone.
Ii was there he was attacked by pneu-
monia, and when found five days
after and carried to his home he was
apparently dying. He did not die,
however, bat for over year was in
daily expectancy of death from what
was pronounced by nearly all the ply
sieians as consumption.
At the end of about one year Mr..
Falkner heard that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills were sometimes efficacious
in such maladies as his, and procured
some. The result was astounding, for
before three boxes of the pills had been
taken, the man who had been given
over, and could not walk without as
sistance when he began their use, was
working at his trade, and has ever
since been hale and harty man.
These facts are vouched for by such
men as Sheriff Allen, Mr.. e. L. Nab
ley, the City Clerk, of Santa Rosa, Mr.
Perry Fits, the well-known lumber
dealer, and many Others, and wert
made the subject of quite an extended
article in the Santa Rosa Republican
by Mr.. Virgil Moore, the well-known
correspondent, who resides near Mr.
Falkner, and was familiar with tn,
whole circumstances.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain
all the elements necessary to give new
life and richness to the blood and re
store shattered nerves. They are sol
in boxes (never in loose form, by tn
dozen or hundred) at so cents box
or six boxes for 50. so, and may be haC

Over 100000.

Washington, Nov.24 The apecial ma

OIL SIX thousand TINS of armor per an

that no diflic nifty is expected to arise in
securing straight bids.
The board has prepared the form of nd
