NO MORE HEADACHE
GENERAL WEAKNESS AND FEVER
 DISAPPEAR TOO.
How . Woman Was Freed from Troubles That Had Made Life wretched for
 Many fesr..


 The immediate causes of headaches vary, but most of them come from poor or poisoned blood. h anaenIia the blood is scanty or thin; the nerves are inper. fectly nourished and pain is the way in which they express their weakness. Tn colds the blood absorbs poison from the mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates the nerves and produces pain. In -heu- matism, malaria and the grip. the poison in the blood produces like discomfort. In indigestion the gases from the impure matter kept in the system affect the blood in the same way.
 The ordinary headache-cures at best give only temporary relief. They dcaden the pain but do not drive the poison out of the blood. Dr. Williams Pink Pills on the contrary thoroughly renew the blood and the pain disappears perma- nently. Women i'll particular have found these pills an unfailing relief ill head aches caused by an9mia.
 Miss Stella Blocker recently said: "Dr. WilliaIns' Pink Pills did me great deal of good. I had headache nearly all the time. After had taken three boxes of these pills became entirely we'll"

Little boys now look less Lord Faunt- leroyish. more outdoors. sturdy and practical. The former fashion was pie turesque, the present is sensible.
 The little chap here pictured is at tired in a dull blue linen suit, tie and belt of red. His straight crop of hair seems a fit part of the whole, simple and no fol-de-rols. Red linen with belt and tie matching is also very good and one may with almost equal effect choose a good cotton, which is strong, and does not fade any easier than the linens.
 Pique makes up very nicely for the boys suit, and both coarse and fine weayes of linen and cotton.
