The Dough Head Discovered.

That truth is stranger than fiction is
illustrated by the following true story,
relates tho Lapeer Press: About 40
years ago q boy was kicked by q horse.
The physician attending the case found
his skull was broken, and q good share
Of his brains had leaked out. Thinking
to do the best he could and knowing it
would not do to leave the place vacant,
the doctor took buckwheat flour, and,
making q thick batter, trephined the
skull and filled the cavity. That boy
lived and grew to be a man, weighs $50
pounds and is smart as most men.
Living not far from Oakwood, he does
business in Lapeer quite often and is
all right, only once in awhile that buck
wheat batter will rise, and then he is
daft for a time. DIR. William Rossman,
who died in this city. did the surgical

The reason that DR.. Williams'P Pink Pills
for Pale People were helpful in the above
case, is that they are composed Of vegetA-
bic remedies which act directly on the
impure blood, the foundation of disease.
As the blood rushes through ali parts
OF the body, the ecnveyer Of good or bad
health, it is necessary that it should be
pure, rich and red.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills build up the
blood by supplying its life giving elements
which nourishss the various organs, slim
ulating them to activity in the perform
anee Of their functions and thus drives
disease from the system.
The pills are in universal demand and
sold by ali druggists.
