The Amateur Philosopher.

Men care for money and women care
for men-with money
When YOU die the event viii attract
attention mainly on account of interest
in the question of who will get your
job.
When mans wife and daughters
sulk and never look at him except with
reproach on account of something he
has done he endures it cheerfully know
ing it can only last until they need car
fare.
The henpecked husband is a myth.
The only way woman can manage her
husband is by letting him think he is
getting his own way.
1t is hard to believe that a fat man
can be very desperately in love.

4 WASTE O MONEY !
IN FRUITLESS EFFORTS TO CURE
STOMACH TROUBLE.
Not Artificial Digestion But Natural
Digestion is What is Needed How
This May be Obtained.

More money is spent experimenting
with worthless medicines for stomach
trouble than for any other disease.
These preparations may temporarily
aid digestion, but they cannot cure in
digestion. They go at it the wrong
way.
To permanently cure indigestion,
dyspepsia or other stomach trouble
the medicine should act upon the al
gestive organs themselves-not upon
their contents. 1t should not do the
stomach's work but should make the
stomach able to do its own work.
This is what Dr. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People will do as no 9th.
er medicine can They are not com.
posed of digestive ferments, which
promote an artificial digestion, but
they tone up the stomach, restore the
weakened functions of the digestive
organs, and thereby promote natural
digestion. A case in point is that of
Arthur Mclaughlin, of No. 272S North
Lincoln street, Chicago, Ill. He says:
For long time | was troubled
with severe pains III the stomach-a
case of chronic Indigestion I would
feel craving for food, but when 1 ate
| experienced those wretched pains
which nearly drove me distracted. My
kidneys also became affected tried
several different stomach medicines
and, for a while. they seemed to help
me. Then the same old pains would
come back. This went on for nearly
two years and at times / was pretty
much discouraged
Zone day friend advised me tic
try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. / did so. Before l finished
box the pains We're less frequent and
less severe, and by the time / had fin.
ished three boxes the pains were
thing of the past. Now can eat any
thing and enjoy it and feel like
new man."
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People will not only cure stomach
trouble but are positive cure for al
diseases arising from Impoverished
blood or shattered nerves. They are
sold by all dealers or will be sent
postpaid on receipt of price, fifty cents

The finest treat williamsburg ever
had will be given at the opera house
this coming Saturday night by two
professional singers, assisted by home
talent. These singers, with world
wide reputation are Mr. and Mrs. Clar-
ence Whitehill. Mr.. Whitehill, former
ly resided in Fillmore township and is
well known in this part of the country.
After he finished school he went to
Chicago. 1t was there he discovered
he had an unusually fine voice. His
friends urged him to study, which he
did. His instructor predicted great
future for him, if he would make voice
culture and music study. He needed
the good advice and it was not long
until he charmed the ears of manuel
Baptist church congregation. Here a
number of Chicagos best musicians
heard him and became interested in
him, claiming his voice to be of excep-
tionally pure quality. Madam Melba
heard him and advised him to go
abroad. She assisted him to procure the
finest teachers of France. He made a
short concert tour through this part of
the country and all his friends here
were delighted with his voice. Then
he sailed for Europe where he studied
for over FIVE years. The last two years
he has been engaged in an opera com
pany, as the leading basso. While
with this company he welded his wife
who was the leading soprano singer.
The New York papers speak very
highly of the sweetness and purity of
Mrs. WhitehilTs voice. She has sung
but little in America, as she has spent
most of her time in Germany, where
she and Mr.. Whitehill were married a
few months ago. They are visiting at
the home of Mr.. Whitehill's mother,
south of. Marengo, and have kindly
consented to give concert here.
Mrs. Henry Pierce is visiting this

Mrs. LeaSure.

coin, Neb, came in last night for

The saloons of Iowa county are now
open Or will be just as soon as they
can get a supply of liquor on hand.
This last decision of the supreme
court is surprise as the saloons
had closed up and st was thought that
until new petition had been procur-
ed they would stay closed. 1t
seems that the decision, which was
supposed to close them, in reality did
nothing of the kind but leaves the sa-
looms of Iowa county with legal petit
ton, as shown by the board of super
yisors pending an appeal to the dis
trict court, notice of which has been
filed, or rather the appeal that was
filed two years ago, it is contended
will stand good now.
