Judge Dickerson and some OF the
other judges in the territory are
making a determined effort tc
stamp out gamblingand the sale Of
intoxicants. 1t is a movement in
which town authorities and all
coed citizens should cooperate,
The gambler is parasite upon
legitimate industry. He takes the
earnings of the workingman and
business men suffer the conse-
quence. No community is benefit
ed by the gaming practice.

Gov. Vardaman of Mississippi
showed small common-sense and
less taste in sending his reply to the
Francis message. His action is
condemned even by the press of
his own city.

A determined effort should be
made to change the clause in the
Hamilton bill which gives Oklaho-
ma sixty delegates in the constitu-
tional convention and Indian Ter
ritory only fifty. 1t is a rank in
justice to this territory. Indian
Territory has made wonderful
gain in population since the census
was taken, probably greater gain
than Oklahoma, and there is nc
reason why we should not have al
equal voice with our sister territory
in framing the constitution OF the
new state.

WHAT ROME THINKS
THE POPEs PHYSICIAN ENDORSES
AN AMERICAN REMEDY.
Dr.. Lapponi Uses DIR. Williams Pink Pills
In His Practice Because Results
Meet His Expectations.

DE-. Lapponi Uses DR.. Williams Pink Pills
In His Practice Because Results
Meet His Expectations.
DR.. Lapponi, the famous physician to
the Vatican, whose name has recently
come so greatly to the front on account
Of his unremitting attention to His
Holiness, the late Pope Leo XIII, and
the high esteem and confidence with
which he is regarded by the present
Pope, His Holiness Plus K, is man of
commanding genius. He is more than
mere man of science; he is a man Of
original and independent mind. I'm
trammeled by the " etiquette Of the
medical profession and having used DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People in
his practice with good results, he freely
avows the facts and endorses the value
of this remedy with an authority which
no one will venture to question.
Or. LapponPs Letter.
at certify that I have used DIR.
Williams Pink Pills in four cases
of the simple an@mia of develop
ment. After few weeks of treat
ment, the result came fully up to my
expectations. For that reason 7
shall not fail in the future to extend
the use of this 1audable preparation
not only in the treatment of other
forms Of the category of an@mia or
chlorosis, but also in cases of neuras-
thenia and the like"
(Signed) GIUSEPPE LAPPoNI,
Via del Gracchi 332, Rome.
The ''simple anamia Of development,
referred to by DR.. Lapponi, is of course,
that tired, 1anguid condition of young
girls, whose development to womanhood
is tardy and whose health, at that period,
is SO often imperiled. His opinion of
the value of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People at that time is of the
highest scientific authority, and it con-
firms the many published cases in which
an@mia and other diseases Of the blood,
as well as nervous diseases such as ner-
vous prostration, neuralgia, st. Vitus'
dance, paralysis and locomotor ataxia
have been cured by these pills. They
are commended to the public for their
efficiency in making new blood and
strengthening weak nerves. After
such an endorsement they will be ac-
copied by the medical and scientific
world at their full value.

TWO STEPS.
The Last One Helps the First.

A sick coffee drinker must take two
steps to be rid of his troubles and get
strong and well again.
The first is to gut off coffee abso-
lutely.
That removes the destroying ele-
ment. The next step is to take liquid
food land that is Postum Food Coffee
that has in it the elements nature re-
quires to change the blood corpuscles
from pale pink or white to rich red,
and good red blood builds good strong
and healthy cells in place of the
broken down cells destroyed by coffee.
With we'll boiled Postum Food Coffee
to shift to, both these steps are easy
and pleasant. The experience of a
Georgian proves how important both
are.
From 1872 to the year 1900 my wife
and l had both been afflicted with sick
or nervous headache and at times we
suffered untold agony. We were coffee
drinkers and did not know how to get
away from it for the nabit is hard to
quit
but IN lJUU read or case similar
to ours where Postum Coffee was used
in place of the old coffee and a COM
plete cure resulted, so l concluded 10
get some and try it.
THE result was, after three days use
of Postum in place of the coffee |
never had symptom of the old
trouble and in five months had
gained from 145 pounds to 163 pounds.
My friends asked me almost daily
what wrought the change My answer
always is, leaving eff coffee and drink
ing Postum in it's place.
Eve have many friends who have
been benefited by Postum.
