On the verge of insanity, Miss Hattie
King, of Ithaca, n. Y, was checked In
the course that was taking her rapidly to
the grave, and restored to her friends IN
sound physical and mental health and
rcgained happiness.
The change for the better In this charm
ing young woman, not yet eighteen years
old, is so great that when she reappeared
In public her friends could hardly believe
the evidence that their eyes clearly showed
them.
Miss King became greatly weakened
by complication of physical troubles,
and was looked upon By her friends and
family as one doomed to early death.
Her stepfather, Charles NJ. Burnett, tells
of her strange cure as follows:
Hattie first complained of dizziness,
which steadily grew worse.
:" She suffered with nausea and attacks
of vomiting; could keep bot little on her
stomach.
Kidney disease attacked her. She was
pale, thin, and her blood, when drop was
drawn by the prick of needle, was al
most as co1orless as water.
Her heart was affected. She would
frequently faint from the slight exertion OF
rising from bed or from chair.
She coughed continually, so that her
friends feared she was consumpdve.
"She lost flesh rapidly; would be con-
fined to her bed for two or three weeks at
q time.
Her mind was affected. At times she

ave feared she wou1d have to be taken
to an asylum for treatment.
" The best physicians and many proprie-
tary medicines failed to do her any good.
ave had read of wonderful cures by
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
and at length decided to give them trial.
We purchased some at the drug store of
White & Burdick, IN Ithaca.
Soon after she began taking the pills
Hattie began to improve. First her head
aches disappeared, then the attacks of dig
ziness ceased and the cough likewise dis
appeared. One after another the alarming
symptoms left her.
She gained steadily In weight and
strength. The change for the better In
body and mind is almost incredible. In
all she has taken nine boxes of DR.. VII
1iams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and now
she Is in perfect health"
MIR. Burnett sworc to the accuracy Of
his account, formally, before c. r. VOL
colt, Notary Pubic.
When the blood is weakened and lacks
the elements needed to build up new It's
sues, body and mind both suffer, as in the
case of Miss King. All Of the many dis
eases due to arrangements of the blood
and nervous system are cured by DR.. VII
Gams' Pink Pills for Pale People. They
supply IN vegetable form the elements that
are lacking, and restore perfect health.

We carried out our intention as fol-
lows: We made each of our principals
write out his own version of what had
occurred. We then chose an umpire.
We selected Colonel Horn of the TWEEN
tieth regiment, clear headed and much
respected officer. With his approval we
sent him the two statements, and he
directed us to come to his house the fol-
lowing morning with our principals.
At the appointed time we arrived and
were shown into the dining room. We
bowed formally to each other across the
table and awaited the appearance of our
referee. Colonel Horn soon entered, and,
addressing our principals said:
Gentlemen, in the first place, must
thank you for having made my duty SO
light. Nothing could be more open,
generous or gentlemanlike than your
statements. The best advice can give
you is that you shake hands and forget

REST

We are so tired, my heart and l,
OF all things here beneath the sky.
One only thing would please us best
Endless, Questionable rest.
We are SO tired. We ask no more
Than just to slip out by life's door
And leave behind the noisy rout
And everlasting turn about.
Once 1t seemed well to run on too
With her importunate fevered crew
And snatch amid the frantic strife
Some morsel from the board of life.
But we are tired. At life's crude hands
We ask no gift she understands,
But kneel to him she hates to crave
The absolution of the grave.
