Few men in Detroit Real Estate Circles
are better known than Frank B. Trout.
None place a higher value on their reputa-
ton.
Mr.. Trout has reason to believe in the
potency of DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and
ne does not hesitate to say SO.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills saved the life
Of his daughter.
Saved her when eminent physicians
tailed; when the pharmaeopoeia was ex-
hausted; when science acknowledged
defeat.
The gratitude of the father overba1ances
the natural conservatism Of the man, and
he tells the world his story that others
may be benefited.
AT the age Of fourteeno said T.-r.
Trout, I'VE had to take Our daughter
from school owing to her health. She
began to fall away and became pale and
languid. She was SO weak she would
tall down every time she tried to walk
"When she was fifteen she weighed only
ninety pounds.
"'She was actually fading away.
Several physicians said she might out
grow it, but that it would no doubt terrni-
nate in consumption.
"She was growing weaker every day;
we concluded we must lose our child.

their skill, we had tried all the well known
remedies. Finally | bought box of Dr..

SPORTS AND PAsrIMts.

The High school boys made a good
record in base ball and foot ball, playing
a number of games with teams from other
places. They visited several neighboring
cities and towns and were visited by base

The interest in bowling increased dur

Belfast and Camden teams, and more are
