druff and stop falling hair?
No. they do not, but Herpicide does
because it goes to the root of the evil
and kills the germ that attacks the

Increase Of Pneumonia.

Pneumonia is the one prolific cause
of death which is steadily increasing
in our country the number of its vic
tins. The open-air treatment Of con-
sumption reduced deaths from that
cause from 245 per 100000 in 1890 to
100 In 1900. In the same period diph-
liberia, under anti-toxin treatment, lost
Just half of its deadliness. Typhoid,
sdiarrhoeal diseases even paralysis, de-
iclined in virulence. But pneumonia In
the whole country grew from nine to
lten per cent. of all causes of death in
the ten years; and In the AREA of reg
istration" 1t now stands first among
the causes of death. surprising even

a GREAT INSTITUTION.

1t Is unusual that single institution in n
city OF 900 people will overshadow In i'm
portance every other interest, but such is
tho case witn the American School of
Osteopathy, and A T. Still Infirmary at
.Kirksville, Mo.
stranger in Kirksville is Immediately
impressed with the idea that the town Is
sustained by this institution, in fact,
Kirksville has been made what it Is to-day
by DIR. Still and his famous School and
Inhrmary. 1t Is the largest patronized un-
endowed institution Of its kind in the
United States.
DR.. Stills school enrolls over 700 students
yearly and each student is required to at
Tend four terms of five months each before
completing the course of study. There are
ticing In every state and territory of the
Union. About two-thirds of the states
have passed special laws legalizing the
science.
This school teaches every branch taught
IN medical colleges except drugs" and
osteopathy Is substituted for that. So
thorough is the teaching in anatomy that
over one hundred human bodies are dis
sected yearly by the students.
At the Infirmary, patients from every
part OF the country and with almost every
form OF disease are constantly under treat
-ment. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to Kirksville has
brought some new sufferer hoping to find re-
lief by the science Of Osteopathy. BY the
thousands who have left the Institution
benefited by the treatment, the science has
been heralded to the world as safe and
rational method of cure. Several years ago
a free clinic was established in connection
with the practice department of the school
and this Is still in operation. Hundreds of
the worthy poor, who are unable to pay for
treatment, are treated every afternoon by
the senior students free of charge.

PROVES GREAT POWER
When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed, DR.. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism.

Hundreds of people afflicted with rheu-
matisIn have spent years under the care
of excellent physicians in vain. Then
they have settled down to the conviction
that it is fastened on them for life. Mrs.
Dinsmore was not willing to join the
ranks of the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her.
Here is her story:
" Four years ago suffered greatly
with rheumatism i'll my hands and
knees. After I had been sitting while
my limbs seemed so heavy could hardly
walk on the first attempt. So long as
kept moving was all right, but just as
soon as stopped, something seemed to
settle III my knees and make them ache.
My hands were so bad couldn't touch
the palms of them OIL a fiat surface; they
were swollen and panied So
''Did You call in a physician?"
"I doctored steadily for over a year
then one doctor said: You have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still, it did not kill me nor
the rheumatism.
"How, then. did You get rid Of it?"
"At different times had read in varl-
ous publications about DIR. Williams
wonderful Pink Pills for Pale People,
and finally decided to try them. took
them steadily for four months in ac-
cordance with the directions. By that
time was completely cured"
"Have you been free from it ever
since?"
"Since then have fiad but one slight
return Of my trouble, and box or two Of
the same pills made me all right again.
Mrs. +. A. Dinsmore lives in hearty
enjoyment of her recovered health at
Woburn, Mass, entirely freed from the
grave anxieties that rheumatism always
brings. When it appears in but a single
joint it shows that the blood is in faulty
state in the whole body. 1t may Mt any
moment break out elsewhere, and one of
the dangers is that it may break ont i'll
the heart and then the result must be
fatal. The only security is to keep the
blood all the time in u perfectly sound
condition.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills make healthy
blood. All other relief is superficial
This is thorough. These pills are sole
by all druggists.
