MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC LIGHTING.

The Newark Evening News treated
the electric lighting problem in an
interesting manner Satur lay. Not
only does part OF the comment bear
directly with Perth Am boy, but, in
view of the fact that certain merchants
in this city are contemplating estab
fishing an electric lighting plant Of
their own, the other portion Of the
editorial 10 of more than ordinary
interest. Regarding Perth Amboy,
the Newark News says;
when the matter of letting a con-
tract for the electric lighting Of
Perth Amboy was before the author
tiles Of that city last month, there
were two bids put in by competing
companies, the Public Service Cor
poration and the Carteret Electric
! Light, Heat and Power Company
Unexpectedly, however, the bid OF the
latter was higher than that of the
~ former, and it was then pointed out
by interested people that competition
did not always lower lighting prices
where the companies concerned based
their bids on figures thar would allow
q fair margin Of profit. This argu-
ment seemed to be sustained by the
facts in the Perth Amboy case, but it
is apparent from news just made pu-
bIio that the conclusion reached was
\ Incorrect. On the last day of this
month, the stockholders of the Carte.

L. Pain: Now Gone Altogether. i.
eft seems like q miracle that DR..
Williams Pink Pills should have cured
my neuralgia, - said Mr.. Porter. 8. They
are certainly marvellous medicine and
I shall always be glad to- recommend
them. -: - =. ~
''For two years, )" he continued, II had
suffered almost uncomfortable painsfn my
head. They would start over my eyes
and shoot upward most frequently, but
they often spread over my face, and at
times every part Of my head and face
would be full Of agony. Sometimes the
pains were so intense that actually
feared they would drive me mad. -
""My eyes ached constantly and there
was always burning sensation over my
forehead, but the other pains varied,
sometimes, they were acute, and again
they were dull and lingering. I could
notsleep. My temper was irritable and
I got no pleasure out of life.
.sI tried remedy after remedy, but
finding no help in any Of them, I be-
came despairing man. Even when I
began to take DR.. Williams Pink Pills I
had no great hope of a cure. E
: "That was in December of 1903. To
my surprise, change in my condition
took place right away. The pains grew
less intense and the acute attacks were
further apart, as I. kept on using DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills. The Improvement be-
gan with the first box, and when I had
used six boxes I stopped. My cure was
complete and has lasted ever since.,'
Mr.. Charles II. Porter lives at Ray
mond, New Hampshire, and is well
known as the proprietor Of the Hotel
Raymond. He ia one Of many grateful
people who have found that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills will cure diseases Of the nerves
that have stubbornly resisted every other
remedy tried. The nerves are fed through
| the blood and DR.. Williams Pink Pills
by making new blood, cure the cause OF
nervous troubles. They do not simply
deaden pain, but they cure the disease
that causes the pain, and build up the
strength by purifying and enriching the
blood. Not only neuralgia, but sciatica
partial paralysis aud locomotor ataxis
yield to them. They are sold by al
