A C0ACHMAN' STORY
The Experience Which Came to
the Man on the Box.

The coachman can tell many an in
teresting story. All sorts of experiences
come to him and the long hours on the
box are not so monotonous as one might
suppose. When he chooses, Austin Roe,
coachman, living at No. 20 West Lib
erty street, Wilkesbarre, Pa, can enter
tain a listener for hours, telling i'll his
original way of the things that have
happened to him.
cit is hard life," he says, sand it is
no wonder when one of us breaks down.
For myself, the exposure and lack of
sleep ran me down i'll health last winter
till became a shadow. Oftentimes l
had to take to my bed with fever RIM
ming my temperature way up. l had a
cold good part of the time, my head
was always dizzy, my stomach was out of
order and my limbs stiff. 1 grew thin,
was tired out all the time and felt gen.
orally miserable.
"No, the doctor didn't seem to help
me very much and I didn't get any bet
ter until, upon the advice of friend, 1
began using DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. The first box made me
feel better and few more made me all
right. Now am strong and healthy
again and I recommend DR.. Williams
Pink Pills to all my friends who seem to
need tonic
The best tonic medicine in the world
is DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. Mr.. Roe is only one out of
thousands all over the world who

rience. This medicine, unlike any
other, acts both on the blood and
nerves, builds up the system and cures
where ordinary preparations fail. DIR.

scathing rebuke Of the selfish wealthy

rose was present that night with Luella
and Archie. They all heard Miss An
drews, with genuine surprise at her
ability. Chambers provoked their ap-
plause even while he angered them by
his prophets denunciation of their
wicked selishness. Falmouth's speech
was calm but earnest appeal to the
conscience. and every nearer was more
honestly thoughtful for it. Then Cor
don rose.
He had gained amazingly in the pow

plea; he uttered no denunchtion; sim

whispered the litany:
80 Lamb of God, who takest away
the sins of the world, have mercy upon
me-"
Luella never took her eyes off John
Gordon's face. AS he drew near the
end she noted the extreme exhaustion
of his whole bearing. And as he fin
ished and sat down she observed Miss
Andrews, who was seated behind Cor
don, lean forward and ask him some
thing.
Then as the chairman of the meeting
was making some announcement for
another gathering Luella saw Cham
berS and Falmouth suddenly rise and
go over to Gordon just as he swayed
and would have fallen. The two friends
caught him and quickly carried him
off the stage. Miss Andrews followed
them. and the great audience began to
go out.
Luella hesitated. Mrs. Penrose had
not seen anything. She had not been
looking.
II think Mr.. Gordon was ill.," Luella
said.
''Shall we wait and inquirer" Mrs.
Penrose asked quickly.
'I'll go up and see about it." Archie
suddenly volunteered.
He went up and crossed the stage
and disappeared. When he came back
after a few minutes, he said that Cor
don had been removed to Hope House.

but it was not possible yet to say how
seriously. Mrs. Penrose sent word to
Luella and added that If Luella wished
she would go down to Hope House
with her next day and inquire. Luella
replied that she did not think it neces-
sary, and Mrs. Penrose did not press
the matter.
But three days later Luella was in
the drawing room when a visitor was
announced.

1t was a question provoked by the
entire social cruelty of that world rep

Mrs. Penrose. The gentle, patient, sac

who had given her whole life to lift
the human burden burst out Of it's ha-
bitual repression Of feeling and swept
up and over Luella as if she were the
incarnation of social selfshness which
in all great cities of the world seeks
ease and pleasure and luxury and de-
MES all claims of brotherhood, refuses
to share its strength with the weak
and never dreams of such thing as
personal responsibility for childhood's
ways of mankind's suffering.

There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than al other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed TO be incur
able. For a great many years doctors

ncurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treat
