Mother Tells How She Saved Her
Little Daughters Life.

and have had great deal of expert
ence with medicines. Last summer
my little daughter had the dysentery
IN its worst form. We thought she
would die. I tried everything ]
could think of, but nothing seemed
to do her anv good. l saw by an ad-
vertisement in our paper that Cham
5erlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea remedy was highly recon-
mended and sent and got bottle at
once. 1t proved to be one of the
best medicines we had ever had in
the house. 1t saved my little daugh-
ter's life. | am anxious for every
mother to know what an excellent
medicine Is. Had known it at first

Every one in Vernon and for miles around
knows honest, good natured Adam Salm, and
not only in Vernon Center, n. Y, where he
has resided for twenty-eight years and con-
ducts his large and well-kept farm, but wher-
ever he is known his word is respected.
His happiness, success in life and even life
itself was due to victory over disease.
cit was a wonderful victory he says,
"from the dreadful disease which threatened
to vitiate my life and one that has made life
miserable for thousands and filled innumer-
able premature graves. 1t is that form OF dis
ease known as rheumatism, and which held
undisputed sway until its conquering enemy
came in the form of DIR. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People.
"For long time experienced untold suf-
ferings from the ravages of this fearful all
ment. All kinds of remedies were resorted
to for relief but it was the same experience
that had come to countless victims of rheu-
matism-immunity from excruciating PAIN
for time, but after temporary relief came
suffering once more, as the insdiOus malady
took new grip OH its distracted victim.
81 happened to learn of the wonderful
power of DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People in cOnguering rheumatism, but long
suffering had made me incredulOus as | hao
spent many dollars for other remedies with
out finding relief and this experience haC
embittered me against proprietary medicines
I finally concluded to try these pills az
bought one box of them, and before they were
all used / experienced relief such as ] haC
not enjoyed since my affiiction began. Will
the depletion of the first box came another

and another until twelve boxes had been con.
Sumed.
Just six months from the time the first
box had been taken | was a cured man, and
with the consumption of the last pill went out
my blessing to DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and to the management which is
spreading its efficacy throughout the world
relieving suffering humanity from the chains
of disease. This is no fairy tale, but a true
story prompted in the fullness of a grateful
heart, and given for the benefit OF those who
may be similarly afflicted"
This is to certify that the article published
in the Vernon Times of December II, concern
ing my cure of rheumatism by the use of Dr.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People is true
and published with my sanction.
ADAM SALM
Subscribed and sworn to before me.
GEO. L. BOWERS, Notary Public.
The blood is the vital element in our lives
consequently it mus be kept pure, rich and
red in order to have perfect health. The
cause of Mr.. Salm's sickness was impure and
impoverished blood He had skilled medi-
cal treatment and used many remedies, but
derived no benefit until he commenced to
take DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and these cured him.
This proves that this remedy is the best
means of imparting those elements that purify,
yitalize and enrich the blood, thus aiding
bodily functions and arousing every organ
into healthful action and in this way restor-
ing the entire system.
That is the reason why DIR. Williams Pink
| Pills for Pale People cure so many diseases,
why doctors prescribe them, why druggists
recommend them and why they are SO univer.
ally used.

SUPT. LEWIS IDEA.
Thinks Normal and High Schools are
Covering the Same Work.

When Supt. Lewis presented his pro-
positions to the state Normal board last
Saturday. the board looked dazed. IL
certainly would not favor" said Direc-
tor Phelps, dropping the academic
studies and leaving the schools mere in
situations of pedagogy"
Chairman Ankeny said the members
were new to the normal schools and did
not wish to do anything revolutionary
until they had a chance to get ac-
quainted with the conditions.
Supt. Lewis explained. The normal
schools are doing work that is covered
by the high schools and ought to be
done in the high schools by normal
school students before they enter.
There are 207 schools that cover that
ground and especially at the two south
ern normals there is no student but has
opportunity to attend high school
near home At st Cloud and Moor
head there are more' pupils that have
not had high school chances and he
does not yet advise abolishing the pre-
paratory classes there Even there,
though, he believes if the normal
schools refused to cover this elementary
ground. the common schools would
soon rise to meet thel deficiency. In a
year or two the normal classes would
be as large as before.
1t was not the purpose, he said, to
stop teaching elementary studies in the
normal schools, but to stop teaching
the elements Arithmetic should still
be taught from the teachers stand
point, but the pupil should certainly
know the elements of arithmetic.
He was not an opponent, but a friend
of the normal schools. Now the nor
NAL school gives six months to the al
zebra on which the high school spends
two years The same ground can't be
covered in that time The same with
history. He would have the normal
school course require that the two
years in history and the two years in
algebra should already have been
spent, and that the pupil should know
beforehand how to do long division and
figure percentage, that he might be in
a position to begin learning how to
teach the subjects.
Then the board sent word to Gov
Lind they would be glad to see him.
He said that the state could not afford
to duplicate its energies in Instructions
He believed in developing the normal
schools and the way to do it was not to
make high schools of them The nor
NAL schools should be the very best, for
it was on them that the common schools
finally depended for teachers, and ION
the common schools everything
depended.
