Nobody who sees Mrs. Mary NJ. Peabody,
of 42 Water Street, Haverhill, Mass, to-day
will find it easy to believe that she has passed
her 63d year and has endured more suffering
than comes to the ordinary lot of woman.
How she regained health and happiness is
best told in her own words. She says:
"When l experienced the change Of life
that comes TO all women had such a serious
time that it left me broken down in health,
suffering terribly with palpitation of the
heart and general debility. Year after year
| grew worse. employed doctors and took
many medicines without the slightest re-
lief

said he had heard of remedy that would
cure me. 1t was DIR. Williams Pink Pills

medicine that ! was discouraged and didn't
want to try them but he bought box and
the pills helped me at once. | used several
boxes of them and from total wreck | was

FRESH INFORMATION.

a notable arrival in Bangor, a few

the 18th L. S. Infantry, from Manila.
Mr.. Rice came home on the transport

time mostly in Iloilo, having enlisted
in Boston on May g. 1898. He sailed
from San Francisco on Aug. p, 1898,
and after a 10 days stop at Honolulu,
arrived in Manila on Nov. %.
The transport laid off Iloio for 46
days awaiting orders. Gen. Miller had
given orders not to antagonze the
Niscayans, and as the American SOL

said Mr.. Rice in an interview. Had

Aguinaldo's men chance to work on
the Viscayans, but gave the color of
truth to their assertions that we We're
afraid to go ashore. That all worked
against us later.

will surely come.
He is a quick, active man, and the
Filipinos look up to him as a sort of
God. He is considered, or was at one
time invulnerable, and one one occa-

with ammunition fixed for the per-

Gen. Otis is decidedly unpopular among
the rank and file of the army. The men
regard him as inefficient. and think if an

He has lived for 26 years $50 miles

with him supplies for year.

for a moment, when the chief fired.

took effect in his side and back.
Before he went there the natives plum

who escaped. Now they are his faith
full assistants in saving life and prop

He has written a grammar and is now

men with pieces of sails and buried them.
FIR. Brabant will make a tour Of the
Maine cities before venturing into larger
places. The streets confuse him. the
electric cars telephones and the like sadly
bother him, and he would, he says, gladly
be back in the BUSH.
