A HIGH Mark

The New York Almanac for 1901, is
sued by Chas H. Fletcher, of New
York City, has set high mark for
similar publications during the new
century, and shows remarkable enter
prise on the part of the publisher,
when we consider that it is intended
solely for free distribution. The nu-
merous publications of this character
are usually gotten up with the single
idea of cheapness, while the thought
of expense has certainly been set aside
in the case of the New York Almanac.
The artistic colorings of the cover,
the accuracy of its calendars and its
fund of information all go to make
it well worthy of perusal and preser-
walton. 1t has innumerable hints for
mothers as to the care of children. A
unique page is the 'Baby's Record
page, which is in blank, to be filled
in with baby's name. date of birth,
cut first tooth. etc.
The whole is very creditable piece
of work and may be procured at any
drug store or direct on request, free.

SURE TO FOLLOW
If the Blood Is impoverished Diseases
Which Often Puzzle Doctors
Are Inevitable.


Physicians are often puzzled by an
ailment that does not yield to the
usual remedies, patients are caused
much suffering and expense while ex-
periments are being tried upon them,
when in many cases the seat of the
disorder is in the blood. If this vital
fluid is impoverished, disease is sure
to follow. Build up the blood, the dis
eased part is nourished and strength
ened, and health results. This is the
simple history of what often appears
to be a complicated case. Mr.. Ezra
Edwards, the well-known merchant of
Webster City, Iowa, passed through
such an experience. He says:
81 have always believed that my
trouble was due to the impoverished
condition of my blood About four
years ago my ankles began to swell
and cause me great pain. 1 am quite
heavy and as l was on my feet con-
stantly 1 suffered intensely. Finally
the swelling became SO bad that I
could not walk. and for a week l was
confined to my chair or bed. Three
doctors treated me, but did not effect
cure.
81 first heard of DR.. Williams Pink
vertisement in a religious paper. About
six months ago / began taking the
pills, and 1 felt good results from the
| first box. I continued taking them
as directed for nearly five months. 1
am now AZ years old and am the pic
ture of health. I am willing to tell
i the world that Dr. Williams Pink Pills
cured me and l know they will cure
others if they are given a thorough
trial.
Hardly a day passes that I do not
tell some one of the benefits 1 have
received from DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, for think that
anyone suffering from any disorder OF
the blood or nerves should give them
a thorough trial.
