ganization known as the Woman's Relief
Corps, whose aid TO the soldier of to-day,
fighting against the world for a living, Is no
less notable than the heroism of the COS.
One of the most earnest members of the
corps at Byron, H., is Mrs. James House
weart, but illness once put a stop to her
active work. A year or so ago, when she
was nearing fifty years of age, the time
when women must be most careful OF their
strength, Mrs. Houseweart was taken seri-
ousy i'll. The family physician told her
that she had reached critical period of her
life, and must be very careful. His pre-
scriptions and treatment did not benefit her,
and other treatment proved unavaing.
At last DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People were brought 10 her notice, with in
disputable evidence that they were helpful
in cases such as hers, and with renewed hope
she tried the remedy. Last March she took
the frat box of the pills, which gave much
relief She was determined TO be cured,
and kept on with the medicine, until now
eight boxes have been consumed, and she
feels like a new woman.
Mrs. Houseweart said: II have taken
eight boxes, and have been improving since
/ took the first dose. ] do not believe i could
have lived without the pills. They have done
me more good than any physician or any
medicine have ever tried"

REVENUE LAW ATTACKED
Chicago hoard of Trade Man Ques-
lions the Constitutionality of
Certain Sections.

Chicago, Sept. 14.-Ilabeas corpus
proceedings were begun in the United
States court Tuesday by James Nicol,
a member OF the board of trade, who
was fined $500 last week for violating
the new revenue law. The proceedings
involve the constitutionality of the
section of the revenue law which com
pels brokers TO make written state
ment Of all sales and contracts. Nicol's
attorney contended II was beyond the
power of congress TO prohibit making
oral contracts in the states. He also
averred that the tax imposed was not
uniform, and was therefore unconsti-
tutional. He said further that II oats
and other products were taxed on the
board OF trade. these articles should
also be taxed on the farm. Gen. Black,
United States attorney, replied TO the
arguments. Judge Showalter took the
case under Amusement.

his vacation brought home with him what he
thinks is a new mother-in-law story. Moth

Europe and the mans mother-in-law went
along Up to this point there is no novelty
in the story. On the voyage the mother-ln'
law fell i'll and died. OF course she had to be
buried al sea. and so the usual canvas sack
was made. but instead Of an iron weight 70
