What the simplon Means.

But the piercing OF the Simplon
will, unhappily. brings with it the
final effacement of one of the most
romantic and grandly historical paths
in human expedition-the closing cur
tain in the most picturesque drama
Europe has afforded, says the Century.
The Napoleonic spectacle was full of
surprises; it's argument narrates the
complications Of society and war; its
complexities detail the enthrallment
of personal magnetism and force.
The superbly built road over the
Alps has remained one Of the most
fascinating diversions for the thought
full tourist and has been fraught with
memorable experiences. From the
moment Of embarkatiOn in the yellow
diligence, when the whip was cracked
over the heads of the post horses at
Brieg, until the arrival in the gorge
of the Condo at Iselle, it was a con-
tinuously unfolding tableau of grand
eur and charm. The overture had be-
gun back in the Rhone valley with
the castles of Sion and Sierre, the
towers of Loueche, and Martigny, at
the foot of the Great ST. Bernard
But when the ascension Of the Sim
plon began it became long series
of windirgs through fortified defiles
leading around terrifying abysses and
through the widest Of mountain re-
cesses. One was awed by the splen-
dor and stirred with conflicting emo
tions. 1t was indeed a refuge-the
hospice of the Augustine monks. Who
that has experienced it will ever for
get the welcoming hospitality of the
four secluded brethren in that DESC
late spot?

Liuco1n,s Inanpnra1 HIT

Those who witnessed Lincoln's first
Inauguration will not soon forget one
little scene which then occurred. The
President-elect came forward upon
the platform prepared at the east
front Of the Capitol, with his natural
awkwardness increased by the momen.
tOus circumstances of the occasion,
and by gorgeous wardrobe, in which
it was evident he felt exceedingly I'M
comfortable. The stiff dress coat, vest
and pantalOons Of black broadcloth
were enough Of themselves to disturb
his mental and physical equanimity,
but to these were added other incum-
brances in the shape of brand new
silk hat and ponderous gold-headed
cane. The cane he managed to put
away in corner, but the disposition
Of the hat perplexed him greatly. 1t

desperately and seeking In vain for II
safe place to deposit it. Douglass, who
sat Immediately in the rear, saw the
embarrassment Of his rival, and ris

sorely bothered owner and held it dur

years before, Stephen A. Douglass ever

the hat of Abra ham Lincoln while that
individual was appearing for the first
time as President of the United States.

NAMES BEST DOCTOR
MIR. BAYSSON PUBLISHES RESULTS
OF VALUABLE EXPERIENCE.
A Former Pronounced Dyspeptic He Now
Rejoiccs in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.

A Former Pronounced Dyspeptic He Now
Rejoiccs in Perfect Freedom from
Miseries of Indigestion.
Thousands of sufferers know that the
reason why they are irritable and de-
pressed and nervous and sleepless is be-
cause their food does not digest, but how
to get rid of the difficulty is the pnzzling
question.
Good digestion calls for strong diges-
tive organs, and strength comes from n
supply of good rich blood. For this
reason Mr.. Baysson took DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for the cure Of Indigestion.
"They have been my best doctor, " he
says. II was suffering from dyspepsia.
The pains i'll my stomach after meals
were almost unbearable. My sleep was
very irregular and my complexion was
sallow. AS the result of using eight
boxes of Dr. Williams Pink Pills, about
the merits of which I learned from
friends in France, I have escaped ali
these troubles, and am able again to take
pleasure in eating"
A very simple story, but if it had not
been for DR.. Williams Pink Pills it
might have been tragic one. When dis
comfort begins with eating, fills up the
intervals between meals with pain, and
prevents sleep at night, there certainly
cannot be much pleasure i'll living. A
final general breaking down must be
merely question of time.
Mr.. Joseph Baysson is a native of
Aix-les-B -Bains, France, but now resides
at No. 2439 Larkin street, San Francisco,
Cal. He is one of a great number who
can testify to the remarkable efficacy of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills i'll the treatment
of obstinate disorders of the stomach.
If you would get rid of nausea, pain or
burning in the stomach, vertigo, ner-
vousness, insomnia, or any of the other
miseries of a dyspeptic, get rid of the
weakness of the digestive organs by the
use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills. They
are sold by druggists everywhere.
Proper diet is, of course, great aid in
forwarding recovery once begun, and
little book, "What to Eat and How to
Eat, may be obtained by any one who
makes request for it by writing to the
DR.. Williams Medical Co., Schenectady,
NY. This valuable diet book contains
an important chapter on the simplest
means for the cure of constipation.
