SHE Fooled DEATH.
DOCTORS SAID SHE WAS DOOMED TO
QUICK CONSUMPTION,



To lie at the point of death for
months, to be told by the physician
that there is no hope of recovery and
then to be restored to health and
strength by DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, was the experience of
Mrs. W. II. Wake of No 81 Broad
street, Railway, N. ]. To look at her
no one would think it hardly possible
that she had ever had a serious i'll
ness Speaking of it she says:
About three years ago | was III a
condition generally known as run
down. / was miserable indeed; life
less and languid | had no strength
at ALL all desire for food had left me,
l was terribly nervous and could not
sleep. What was worse l did not i'm
prove and my weight went down
from 1876 pounds to So / was under
the care ola physician for thirteen
months but still l grew worse. He
said my blood had almost turned to
water. / was so weak that | was
obliged to lie down all the time if 1
tried to stand or even sit up | would
faint away.
Finally the doctor told me that
unless l began to get better within
UWO WtbhS WAS uOOultu w NulCh
consumption. Then l gave up all
hope.
"But about this time friend who
knew something of DR. William S
Pink Pills for Pale People advised me
to try them. l did so, and, after TAX
ing the third box, began to feel bet
ter l continued using them faithful
ly until ! was cured. DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People are a won
derful remedy for persons afflicted as
was and shall always recommend
them.
The disease from which Mrs. Wake
suffered was anemia. 1t is charac-
terized by pallid complexion, pale
lips, dull eyes, tongue and gums
bloodless shortened breath on slight
eXertion-such as going upstairs; pal
pitation of the heart, feeling of i'm
pending death, weakness, loss of APP
petite, and ambition irregularity and
pain in the natural functions OF
women.
The one remedy that has proved
itself a specific for anemia is DR.. Will
liams Pink Pills for Pale People.
They are sold at so cents box or six
boxes for 50. 80, and may be had OF
all druggists or direct by mail from

"Dust Devils" of the Desert.

Travellers in the celebrated Death
valley of California have described the
wonderful contortions Of the sand pill
lars that small whirlwinds sometimes
send spinning across the hot plain.
Even more remarkable are the "dust
devils" seen by Mr.. II. F. Witherby,
the English explorer, in the valley Of
the White Nile. Sometimes two Of
these whiring columns. gyrating in OPP
posite directions, meet, "and if they be
well matched the collision stops them
and struggle ensues as to which way
they shall twist. Gradually one gains
the mastery, and the two combined be-
gin to gyrate alike and then rush on to-
gether." Some of these whirls will
strip the clothes from an Arabs back
or twist a goat round and round like a
top.

The "Bad. Bows.

The "bad" boys are often the best
boys in the neighborhood. All they
want is chance to do something.
Don't expect healthy, active boys to
want to be tied up in books and so
called improving occupations continu-
ally. If boys are not given good ideas
to work upon, such as they always get
in kindergartens, manual training and
other up to date schools, they are sure
to be in harmful mischief, because
boys with vim and "get there" in them
are bound to be busy. Give them tools
and materials to work with; encourage
them to make sleds, carts, boats and
various kinds Of playthings. Don't
ever give ''bad" boy up. Give him
something TO do.

The Perfect Silence.

There is no sensation in the world
like that which comes over you when
walking through a grove of redwoods.
Their great trunks rise hundreds Of
feet into the air and are lost in the
dense roof Of foliage like the columns
of an Egyptian temple grown to super
human height. On the ground there is
no underbrush, but only ferns of size
and shape that suggest a prehistoric
period and fallen trunks that have lain
unrotting for 5000 years. There is no
sunlight, and no birds sing. If storm
arises, it is an hour before drop
reaches the ground. Here all is as it
was since creation, and there is no
time. 1t is the perfect silence.

Black Mirrors.

Crystal gazing is still popular, but
the very latest thing in use is a black
mirror, in which the sibyls say they
can see many things. These little
black mirrors come from India, where
spot of ink has always been favor
lite vehicle for divination. The native
boy who has ''the second sight" is told
to look fixedly at spot of ink, which
is poured into his hand. The black
mirror is said to be every bit as good
as the ink, and it is certainly more
cleanly. 1t is made of a piece of black
glass set in a wooden frame and is
small enough to be held inside the
hand.-LOndon Chronicle.

squirrels roll and romp throughout
the sunny DAYS, appears upon the sun

their little hearts-come back from

cooling and wooing among the bios.

souls! Eternal in the sense that
through marriage our attributes are
bequeathed to posterity.
