BLOOD Will TELL
A THEORY SUPPORTED BY FRESH.
- CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE
A Recent Instance Proves That Wonan'E

4 Recent Instance Proves That a Wonnan's
Happiness is Largely Dependent on the
State of Her Blood.
When the blood is disordered every
organ of the body is affected unfavosably
and fails to discharge its functions
properly. In the case of every woman
nature has made special provision for
periodical publication of the blood and
SO long as this occurs her health and
spirits unfailingly reveal the beneficial
results. So slight a cause as cold or
nervous shock may produce suppress
sion of this vital function and nntil it is
restored she is doomed to misery. The
remedy that has proved most prompt
and effective in all disorders peculiar to
the female sex, is that which brought
such great relief to Miss Matte Griggs,
Of No. 807 Indiana street, Lawrence,
Kansas, concerning which she speaks as
follows:
''In the winter of 1902, from some
unknown cause, there was q cessation
of functions peculiar to my sex for a PEI
riod of four months. 1 became very
weak and could not get up stairs with
out help. had nausea and pain and
constant headache. I was under the
care of a physician for three months,
but he did not succeed in curing me.
Then a lady friend told me about the
merits Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills which
she had used in her family and she in
duced me to try them. 1t was in May
when I first began to use them and in
June had fully recovered my health,
and have since remained perfectly

ANE Christmas eve wax doll sat
 on q chair in a pretty room in which a number of children
 were in bed. A fire was burn ing on the hearth. Stockings were hanging to the mantel to be filled with toys for the children who were sleep ing soundly, doubtless dreaming of what they were to receive in the morn ing. The face of one of them, a deli cate, fair haired boy, was turned to- ward the doll, and she did not tire look ing at it, for the face, though pale and thin, was very delicately nodded.
 On the nentel were two figures in porcelain. One was a boy in an old fashioned coat and knee brooches, with a sash around his waist and a cooked hat and feather. His right hand was thrust into his coat in front, and he booked like a figure of Napoleon. The ,vther was a girl, with a short dress and sailor hat. Her head was poised one side, and she looked very well satisfied with herself Indeed, she was very pretty.

 Everything was again silent except the clock. which ticked very loud. There were the children asleep in bed, the little pale faced boy with his head resting on his arm, the girl image on the mantel with her head on one side thinking how pretty she was and the boy thinking how much he knew about the world. The doll soon went to sleep again.
 In the morning she was awakened by shouting. The children were run ming about in their night clothes, talk ing their toys from their stockings and chattering like monkeys. The fair hair ed boy sat up ill bed and looked on, for he was too delicate to get up like the other children. The doll noticed that he had great blue eyes, which seemed ever so large as he looked wonderingly at all that was going on. Then there

By the most persistent pluck he held on to the ice, despite the force of the swift current and the numbing effects of the water, until help was summoned, and by Iy- ing upon the ice and using rails his rescue was effected.
