GOOD BLOOD FOR BAD
rheumatism and Other Blood Dis
eases are Cured by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills

SIN the lead mines was at work on my
knees with my elbows pressed against
rock walls, in dampness and extremes OF
cold," said Mr.. J. g. Meukel, of 1915
Jackson avenue, Dubuque, Iowa, Ill de-
scribing his experience to a reporter,
land it is not surprising that | con-
tracted rheumatism. For three years L
had attacks affecting the joints of my
ankles, knees and elbows. My ankles
and knees became SO swollen l could
scarcely walk on uneven ground and
little pressure from stone under my
feet would cause me so much pain that l
would nearly sink down. I was often
obli~ed to lie in bed for several days at a
time. My friends who were similarly
troubled were getting no relief from
doctors and I did not feel encouraged to
throw money away for nothing. BY
chance I read the story of Robert Yates,
of the Klauer Manufacturing Co., OF
Dubuque, who had very bad case OF
rheumatism I decided to try DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People, the
remedy he had used. In three Or four
weeks after beginning to use the pills, |
was much better and in three months l
was we'll. The swelling Of the joints
and the tenderness disappeared, l could
work steadily and for eight years have
had no return of the trouble. My whole
family believe in DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. Both my sons use them. We
consider them household remedy that
we are sure about"
What DR. Williams Pink Pills did for
Mr. Meukel they are doing for hundreds
of others. Every dose sends galloping
through the veins, pure, strong, rich, red
blood that strikes straight at the cause OF
all i'll health The new blood restores
regularity, and braces all the organs for
their special tasks. Get the genuine DR..
Williams Pink Pills at Your druggists

Of winged subjects, in the golden haze

No cry of anguish. for no parting pain

Apt Quotation.

He detested dogs; not that ne feared
them; they were simply distasteful to
him, and he found it difficult to conceal
his aversion.
Naturally she adored them. Her pet
was toy French poodle, equipped i'll the
most approved and foolish fashion. He
was called Spot by his mistress on nc
count of his little black nose, which
poked out through his otherwise SNOWY
body.
In addition to dogs she also loved
Shakespeare. She could quote whole
acts, and for every thing, body and sit
uation, quotation rose to her tongue.
One Saturday evening he called as
usual. He endured the pup with as
good a grace as might be, for it was
hers. Finally she said:
Nov do you know. I've been trying
to think of an appropriate quotation for
Spots collar. Could you suggest one"
How would that line from Macbeth
do: Out, out, damned Spot? " he asked

T. o. Whites Revenge on His Wife
Who Was Seeking Divorce.

Pendleton. Ore, June 25.-As Mrs.
T. o. White, her Z year old daughter
Grace, and her nephew, a Is year old
boy named Norton, were driving from
this city to the Norton ranch 10 miles
west of Pendleton. the husband of
the woman rode up from behind the
rig until even with the seat upon
which his wife sat and without a
word leveled a revolver at her and
fired five shots in quick succession.
At the first shot the woman receiv-
ed wound in the left wrist and fell
into the bottom Of the rig. Two more
bullets also took effect and caused
wounds in her back. None of the
wounds, however, proved serious and
with proper care Mrs. White may re-
cover.
The boy, who was driving, received
a flesh wound in his left knee, which
is thought to have been caused by the
bullet which strucA Mrs. Whites arm,
glancing to his leg.
After White had fred upon his
wife he evidently concluded that she
was dead and turning his horse rode
back toward the city about quarter
of mile, where he dismounted from
his horse and after reloading his re-
volver placed 1t in the middle Of his
forehead and blew his brains out.

Mimic Warfare.

The United States is SO warlike that
1t INDUCES in mimic warfare nearly
every year. About the time the hot
weather strikes us and the "silly sea-
son" is here, then there are battles
with blank cartridges and hostile
events with searchlights. 1t is anus
ing to an outsider to see how serious
the officers are in arranging the de-
tails of these battles" They were
not as serious during the Spanish war
or when we were using 100000 SOL
diers to pacify the Filipinos. The at
tack of the navy upon the forts at the
eastern entrance of Long Island sound
a few years ago and the sham battles
at Manassas last year seemed to be
about the limit. but the attacks" on
Baltimore and Washington this year
capped the climax of absurdity. Good
target practice, maneuvers Of ships,
and the drilling of the soldiers is es-
sential and sensible, but these make
believe" fights between the navy and
the army and the sham battles be-
tween two commands of the army
seem to have carried us back to the
days of long ago.
