STRENGTHEN THE STOMACH
o.. Williams Pink Pills Really Cure
Indigestion Instead Of Merely
Relieving Symptoms.

SyUope0s"S'
There are plenty of remedies by which
YOU can relieve for the time heartburn.
main and gas OH the stomach and can
smother nervous sensations and induce
artificial sleep. You can humor your
stomach by giving it p~redisested food.
But when you take your next meal all
your trouble begins afresh.
There is only one sensible thing to 90.
Strengthen the stomach and do away
with the necessity for drugs and artl-
fetal foods. The best remedy ever found
for this purpose is the one that was used
by E. E. Strong, Of Capleville, Shelby
county, Tenn.
For years." he states, ~ suffered
greatly from indigestion. l tried many
differen. remedies and sOine of them
would relieve me for q time, but tile
trouble always came back. About SIX
months ago l had an unusually severe
attack. and while ] tried everything l
had ever heard Of, l found that none OF
the ordinary remedies would reach the
difficulty this time.
Zone day l read in a Memphis paper
how DIR. Williams Pink Pills had cured
Michigan woman n suffererfrom chronic
dyspepsia of a most stubborn type. L
then tried the same remedy and 1t
proved just as successful i'll my case. l
took ONLY three boxes. and was cured. l
have not had the slightest symptoms Of
indigestion since"
The tonic treatment has a sound prln-
ciple as its basis. and abundant success i'll
actual use. Multitudes of cases that had
defed all other remedies have been cured
by DIR. Williams Pink Pills. The pills
actually make new blood and strike at the
root of all diseases caused by bad blood.
They contain no harmful stimulants or
opiates. Every dyspeptic should read.

ALCOHOL IN MOST MEDICINES.
Indispensable Requisite in Compound.
ina of Some Prescriptions.

Indispensable Requisite in Compound.
ing Of Some Prescriptions.
1t is of course true that some pro-
prietary medicines contain alcohol and
nearly all liquid medicines prescribed
by physicians contain it. No honest
man will defend the sale of intoxi.
cants under the guise of medicine; but
every honest man should protest
against a system of wholesale denun.
citation born of malice, or ignorance
of pharmaceutical principles, and fos-
tered by selfish interests. 1t is as
sumed that alcohol is the cause of in
temperance: but there is a great diff
ference between alcohol and whisky.
II q substitute for alcohol could be
found for use in the manufacture OF
medicines, its discoverer would render
a great service to the profession OF
pharmacy and the science of medi.
cine, for alcohol is a very expensive
ingredient and a cheaper substitute
would be gladly accepted. Unfortun-
ately the word alcohol. in the minds
of many people is associated exclu-
sively with bar-rOOms, drunkenness
and all forms of degradation and vice.
This is due to a lack of knowledge
by the general public of the fact that
alcohol is an indispensable requisite
in drugs, tinctures and fluid extracts.
All fluid extracts and %tinctures on the
druggists shelves contain from 20 to
80 per cent of alcohol; and of all
liquid medicines prescribed by ply
sicians more than Is per cent contain
it in large proportions.
Alcohol is required to preserve Or
ganic substances from deterioration
and from freezing, and it is also re-
0uired to dissolve substances not solu-
BILE in water, while it contributes to
their preservation when dissolved.
Diluted alcohol is largely employed In
fluid extracts: and whenever a greater
strength of alcohol is required as a
solvent (fOr extracting medicinal prin'
ciples) the medicine IS of such a char
acter as to preclude a large dosage;
and for this reason preparations. even
if containing so per cent or more OF
alcohol, are practically less intoxlcat-
ing than beer. In such cases the
character of the medicinal constituents
is such as to absolutely forbid the
taking of the medicine in any way
except in very small doses and at
stated intervals only. To assume that
any great number of proprietary med
icines are used as beverages Is the
veriest NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Sioux Feared Massacre

make necessary the repeating of a
campaign that had lasted for months.
The Indian runner had brought word
that Great Chief Miles had ordered his
soldiers to arms in the early morning,
and that the surrendered Sioux were
to be massacred to the last man, wom-
an and child.
The medicine men had told the H.
dams that this was to be their fate.
lief.
Gen. Miles had planned a review of
the forces in the field as a last act of
the campaign, and it was the order for
the gathering and the marching that
had been taken as IN order of massa-
ere by the fearful, suspicious Sioux.
Trumpet and bugle calls of boots
and saddles" and assembly" burden
ed the air. The troopers and dough
boys" had fallen in, 5000 strong. The
column started west with flags and
guidons fluttering. The head of the
command, the greatest that had been
gathered together since the days of
the civil war, reached the bluff above
the Sioux village. A shout would
have started the stampede of the saw
ages; a shot would have been the sig
nal for a volley from the warriors
lying between the white column and
the village.
What a review was that on the
snow-covered South Dakota plains
that January morning fifteen years
ago! Gen. Miles on his great black
horse watched the 5000 soldiers pass,
soldiers that had stood the burden of
battle and the h%ardships of a winters
campaign. and had checked m of the
greatest Indian uprisings of history.
| The First Infantry led by Col. Shat
J ter, who afterward was in command
in front of Santiago, was there that
day. Guy v. Henry, % lying in
peaceful Arlington cemetery, rode at
the head of his black troopers, the
buffalo soldiers" of the Sioux. Capt.
Allen ". Capron was there with the
battery that afterward opened the bat
tie at Santiago. The Seventh cavalry
was there. two of its troops, B and X.
having barely enough lei left in the
ranks to form a platoon.
These two troops had borne the
brunt of the fighting at Wounded
Knee, when ninety men of the Seventh
fell killed or wounded before the bull
lets of the Sioux. When the two
troops with their attenuated ranks
rode by the reviewing general remov-
ed his cap. an honor otherwise paid
only to the colors of his country.
The column filed past. broke into
regiments. then into troops and COM
panies, and the word of dismissal was
given. The Indian sentinels on the
ridges sisnaled to the camp in the val
ley. In another minute there was a,
stampede, but it was only that of the
thousands of Sioux ponies turned
loose and eager to get back to their
breakfast of bunch grass on the
prairies.-Chicago Post.

Gray dawn was breaking at the PIN
Ridge agency when an Indian runner
broke headlong into the village of the
surrendered Sioux. He stopped at the
tepees of the principal warriors Ions

leaving the camp where its end rested
against an abrupt hill. he made his
way with a plainsman's stealth to the
group of agency buildings, circling
which had extending beyond browning
ridge after ridge were the white Slb-
ley tents Of the soldiers.
Breakfast was forgotten in the
troubled camp of the Sioux. The
chiefs and the greater braves rushed
to quick council, and the lesser war
riors. the Squaws and the children
stood waiting with logged patience in
the village streets.
The council was over. An old chief
shouted a word Of command that was
caught up and passed quickly to the
farthest outlying tepee. An army

Mounted men shot out from the vii

ridge was topped with the figure of
rider and horse, silhOuetted against
the morning sky.
Every sentinel warrior had his eyes
on the camps of the white sOldiery.
Suddenly from the east of the agency,
where lay the Sixth Cavalry, there
came a trumpet call that swelled and
ended in n ringing note that sang
in and out the valleys.
The motionless figure of one of the
hilltop sentinels was moved to instant
life. A signal ran from ridge TO ridge.

sprang into action at its coming. The

on the hills to the west. u~nrestrained

1t seemed but a passing ONE be-
fore every pony in that great grazing
herd was headed % the village. The
animals were as obidient to the word
of command as is a brave to the word
OF his chief.
During the gathering of the herds
the women of the camp had SlunS
their papooses to their backs, had col

standing ready to strike the tepees.
