thirty-five years ago, when the North
west country became a possession of
Canada, prophesied the present pros

Autocratic Ways Of Famous Authoress
Made an Enemy.
When George Eliot was still Miss
Evans, and before she had begun to
write novels, she used to frequent an
old book shop OF the Strand, where
she left a very unfavorable impression
on one young man who was at that
time an assistant in John Chapman's
shop. His description of her is that
of a remarkably ugly young woman
of universal knowledge, whose delight
it was to use the Socratic method in
conversation, but without the Socratic
beneyolence of intention. The result
was that the young men at the dining
table (the shop had a boarding house
for it's employees and guests) who
heedlessly hazarded an opinion, were
very soon made to feel not only that
they knew nothing of the subject un-
der discussion, put that they knew
very little indeed of anything. Now,
a young nan does not relish being
badgered and made a fool of by a
pretty woman, but it is intolerable to
be sat upon by an ugly one-at least
such was the feeling of our informant.
and n consequence of this treat
ment was that in after years, wnen
Miss Evans had become George Eliot,

nit that the author was other than a

Rejoices 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 getrid Of the difficulty is the pnzzling
question.
Good digestion calls for strong diges-
tive organs, and strength comes frasgpa
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. ct was suffering from dyspepsia.
The pains in my stomach after meals
were almost unbearable. My sleep was
very irregular and my complexion vas
sallow. AS the result of using eight
boxes Of DIR. Williams Pink Pills, about
the merits Of which I learned from
friends in France, I have escaped all
these troubles, and am able again to take
pleasure i'll eating"
A very simple story, but if it had not
been for DR.. Williams Pink Pills it
might have been a tragic one. When dis
comfort begins with eating, fills up tho
intervals between meals with pain, and
prevents sleep at night, there certainly
cannot be much pleasure in. living. A
final general breaking down must be
merely a question of time.
Mr.. Joseph Baysson is a native Of
Aix-les-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 in the treatment
Of obstinate disorders of the stomach.
If you would get rid of nausea. pain o.

%vousness, insomnia, or any of the other
miseries Of q dyspeptic, get rid of the
weakness of the digestive organs by the

are sold by druggists everywhere.
Proper diet is, of course, a great aid in
forwarding recovery once begun, and q
