A REMARKABLE TEST

Applied by Teacher in a Leading un;ver.
sity. Demonstrates the Power of DR.. WI,
Hams' Pink Pills to Restore Shatter.a
Nerves.
Mrs. Leander Lane, wife of the minister
OF the christian Church of No. 201O l street.
South Omaha, Neb, tells how her danghtor
has been enabled to resume her professional
work as teacher after suffering for nearly
three years from severe nervous prostra.
ton:
when she was passing from girlhood to
womanhood," says Mrs Lane, ''she suffered
The physician did not help her, but a few
boxes of DR.. Williams Pink Pills brought
about the perfect regulation of her system
while she had escaped from one grave
trouble, she unfortunately began to over
work, first as student and then as teach
er in large Iowa institution for orphan
boys. She enjoyed her work and was very
enthusiastic, but the strain finally told on
her. She became pale, weak, nervous, un-
able to sleep; she had no appetite and she
suffered from severe headaches. Then came
complete breakdown and her work had to
be given up.
"The confidence with which Dr. Williams
Pink Pills had already inspired in us led us
to try them again in this emergency In
provement came at first slowly, and we
sometimes doubted whether she was gain
ing, but we noticed that whenever she stop
ped taking the pills she fell back, and when
ever she resumed the use of them she re-
vived and so we kept up the treatment until
she recovered her usual health and was able
to take position in one of our universities
where she is happily at work. My mother,
my daughter and myself have wel-found-
ed confidence in the merits of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and are always ready to recon-
mend Them
This is simply one more proof that these
pills seek disease at it's source and effect
fundamental cures in all diseases having a
common origin in impaired blood or nerves
They arrest physical decay when it seems
inevitable and find a road to restoration
when the doctor misses it. They are sold
by all druggists throughout the world.

A Point Well Taken.

Il appears to be part of the scheme
of Mr.. Doutney, the apostle of resub-
mission, to scott at the Christian clergy
who advocate the enforcement of the
prohibitory law. Ministers, he says,
never 60 into bar rooms, therefore are
not competent to speak about those re-
sorts. That sort Of logic will hardly
wash. You'll not find any ministers
who have been in he'll, but neverthe-
less they justifably continue to advise
people to keep out of it.-Rockland

OREGON HAS a GOOD FRIEND.
Appropriation for fair Due to InfIu-
ence of the President.

Washington. Dec. 14.-Oregon has
reason to congratulate itself on having
secured the appropriation foi its expo
sition at the last session of congress.
1t now appears that the $475 900 ap-
propriated for government paftieipa-
tion in the Lewis ar Clark fair is the
last money that congress will expend
Tor expositions for many years to come.
The action of the house committee
ON expositions in fatty refusing to
make any appropriation whatever for
the jamestown exposition is an indica-
tlon that congress has had enough,
and has finally reached the stage where
1T will put its foot down. Had it not
been for the interest President Roose-
welt took in the Oregon enterprise
and for the influence which he ex.
erted in behalf OF the Lewis and CLARK
appropriation bill Oregon would have
suffered the same blow that has been
dealt to jamestown.
Congress was just as much opposed
TO exposition appropriations year ago
as 1t IS now, put Oregon had a friend
at court, and the only friend who could
be OF real service.
