Houghton is phenomenal. Men are ar

are looking for skilled workmen, and
the railroad construction which is go-

unskilled labor. House room, sleep

THE CAUSE OF
DYSPEPSIA.
Loss Of Vitality Known to be the Parent Of this Dread
Disease The Method Of Cure that Has
Proved Most Successful.
From the Republican, Scranton, Penna.

The most common Of all human ailments
Is deranged digestion: the most aggrayating
disease, inherited by man, dyspepsia. In
sidous in its nature, varied in its forms it
tortures its victims, battles the skill of ply
sicians and the power of medicine.
The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of
vitality; the absence of nerve force; the loss
of the life-sustaining elements of the blood
1t is truism that no organ can properly
perform its function when the source of
nutriment fails when il is weakened on one
hand and over-taxed on the other. When
the stomach is robbed of the nourishment
demanded by nature, assimilation ceases un-
natural gases are generated, the entire sys.
tenn responds to the discord.
A practical illustration Of the symptoms
and torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the
case Of Joseph Il. Nandyke, 40 Hickory ST.,
Scranton, Pa.
In telling his story Mr.. Vandyke says:
"Five years ago, | was afflicted with q
trouble of the stomach, which was very
aggravating. | had no appetite, could not
enjoy myself at any time and especially
was the trouble severe when i awoke In the
morning | did not know what the ailment
was, but it became steadily worse and was
in constant misery.
81 called in my family physician, and he
diagnosed the case as catarrh of the stomach.
He prescribed for me and | had his prescrip-
tion filled. | took nearly all OF the medi-
cine, but still the trouble became worse,
and / felt that my condition was hopeless.
Ny friends recommended various proprie-
tary remedies, some of them among the best
The true northerner., 1899-05-17

in the market, but tried several Of them
without receiving benefit. After / had been
suffering several months and had secured
no relief from any of the many remedies
which | had taken, friend OF mine, by the
name Of Thomas Campbell, also a resident
of this city, urged me TO try DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. i told him il
would be useless waste of money to buy
them as was convinced that nothing could
do me any good.
g was finally persuaded to buy box
and hegan TO use the pills according TO
directions. Before | had taken the second
box | began 10 feel relieved, and after taking
a few more boxes ! considered myself re-
stored to health. The pills gave me new
life, strength ambition and happiness"
An unfailing specific is found in DR.. VIII
lalns Pink Pills for Pale People for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis,
ST. Nitus' dance. sciatica. neuralgia, rheuma-
tism nervous headache, the after effect Of la
grippe. palpitation of the heart, pale and
saliow complexions, that tired feeling result
ing from nervous prostration, all diseases re-
sulting from vitated humors in the blood,
such as scroflla, chronic erysipelas, etc. They
are also a specific for troubles peculiar TO
females. such as suppressons, irregularities
and all forms of weakness. In men they effect
a radical cure i'm all cases arising from mental
worry overwork or excesses of whatever
nature. These pills are manufactured by the
DIR. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady,
n. Y, and are sold only in boxes bearing the
firms trademark and wrapper at 80 cents
box or SIX boxes for $3.50, and are never sold
in bulk. They may be had of all druggists.
