Cure for Sick Headache.

We had letter the other day from lady in the town of Boulder, Colo, that should be of interest to people who are troubled with spells of sick headache. She writes tbat she had these spells about four times week, was obliged to go to bed and remain there from 8 to 10 hours each time. Had been troubled this way for several years, and the attacks became more frequent. Doctors done her no good. She tried dieting, as every body said it was from her stomach. Seeing an advertisement of Dr. Gunn's Improved Liver Pills, which said, they cure sick headache by removing the cause, she decided to try once more, and sent 50c for two boxes. She said she had taken the last pill more than 4 months ago, has not had sick spell of any kind for over } months. Druggists sell these pills for 25c. per box. It only takes one for dose, they cure sick headache every time. For sale by the Cover Drug Co.

A City Of Six Million.

Greater New York will have a popu- lation of 6, l9l ,250 in 1920, according to a sober prediction made by an en- gineer of national reputation. Ac- cording to the figures on which he bases his estimate this means an in crease of the population of the me- tropolis of 2,357 ,25l inhabitants. If one can imagine monster city, as large as London with all it's environs, city capable of containing the com bined populations of Paris, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Dublin, Butte, Mont, and Paterson, N. J., or, to take an- other view, city with population within 100, 900 as large as that of the combined populations of Alabama, Indiana, Wyoming, North Dakota and Hawaii, one may obtain an idea of the immensity expressed in these seven figures. If we add to this the possibilities of series of wonderful transportation systems, uniting all most within the hour New York and Philadelphia, with it's increased popu- lation of 1000, 900 into practically one mighty municipality, with chain of big New Jersey cities like Jersey ity with 450,000, Newark with 100000, Elizabeth with l50,000, and score Of smaller places, We may have vision of the future more marvellous than the dreams of the most daring TO- mancer.
