remedies that they had faith in, and | tried
nearly all of them. i was ready for any

form, all the elements necessary to give new
life and richness TO the blood and restore
shattered nerves. One day read Of a case
like mine in which a complete cure had
been effected. That convinced me that the
pills had merit, and decided to try them as
they cost only 80 cents box (neyer in loose
form) or six boxes for $3.50, and could be had
at any druggists, or by mail from the DR..
Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady,

the blood, and restore the glow of health TO
pale and sallow cheeks, and effect radical
cure in all cases arising from mental worry,
overwork or excesses of whatever nature. |

to take the pills. Before | had taken one box

dried up red whiskCrod little man and
looks not bit more imposing, now that
he Is q multimillionaire, than he did when
he carried pack.
"Montana" Clark, as he is known
throughout the northwest, where the size
of his fortune, which is estimated at from
$40, 900, 900 to $50, 00O 900, is appreciated,
is an interesting character. He has fine
mansion in Butte, but seldom occupies 1t,
living nearly all the year round in sump-
tuous suit of apartments in New York. He
owns a newspaper I'm Butte, Tho Miner,
but he seldom sees the inside of its office.
Tho best be does is TO dictate its editorial
policy, which Is Democratic. Like his
business interests in Butte, the newspaper
is corductud entirely by agents.
Mr. Clark is now 80 years old, but he
looks to 90 at least 20 years younger, the
direct result of an active, outdoor life.
ThL'ty-six years ago lC left Philadelphia,
where he had spent his youth, and nt the
head Of mule train, with a pick over his
shoulder, went to Montana. There he and
his vito opened country store and sold
to the miners tho cheap nccessariCs of life.
Clark himself pcddiel goods TO the minors,
going from camp to camp in "a wagon.
By dint OF tho hardest kind Of labor and
perseverance he succeeded In saving enough
money to buy an undoveioped copper mine.
This was the turning point In his life.
He was shrcwd enough to know that 1t
would he Of the utmost profit TO him to
handle his own property In person, and as
ho had no real knowledge of mining, eX-
cept the scraps no lad been able to pick up
here and there by his Intercourse with tho
miners, he left his claim and went east to
study. Fora year be went through courses
In mineraloqy and chemistry in the school
of mines, Columbia college, and then re-
turned west to work. The foundations of
his fortune wcro at once laid, and to his
first mine, which turned out to be unusu-
ally rich, he added others, one by one, un-
til today no stands among tho richest men
in tho country.
In spite Of his many millions and the
fact that he has lived in New York dozen
years Mr.. Clark has attracted public at
tention thore on only two occasions. One
Of these was, when he purchased the For
| tuny, and the other was when he built, in
Woodlawn cemetery, what is probably the
| handsomest private mausoleum in the vi
cinity Of New York.
