bell gave its accustomed tinkle, and

ton: You said you didn't are to

Before Silas could reply the bell
tinkled, and in walked Jane. She vas
evidently embarrassed, but had a ready
excuse for her appearance in a demand
upon Lucy for the key of the shop.
Nobody spoke for a moment; a street
band struck up a march, and all four
were silent while it passed. Lucy and
Jackson exchanging stolen glances.
Silas stroking the cat hat had come

RHEUMATISM NEAR HEART.
Mrs. Van Scoy Experiences Dangeroul
After-EfFects from Grip and Learns
Value of u Blood Remedy.

Mrs. Van scoy Experiences Dangerous
After-Efects from Grip and Learns
Value Of u Blood Remedy.
The grip leaves behind it weakened
vital powers, thin blood, impaired di.
gestion and over.sensitive nerves-a
condition that makes the system an easy
prey to pneumonia, bronchitis, rheuma-
tism, nervous p%rostration, and even con.
sumption.
The story told by scores Of victims Of
the grip is substantially the same. One
was tortured by terrible pains at the
base Of the skull; another was left tired,
faint and in every way wretched from
annmia or scantiness Of blood; another
had horrible headaches, was nervous and
couldn't sleep; another was left with
weak lungs, difficulty in breathing and
acute neuralgia. In every case relief
was sought in vain until the great blood
builder and nervc-tonic, DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, was used. For q%uickness and
thoroughness of action nothing is known
that will approach it.
Mrs. Van Scoy makes a statement that
supports this claim. She says:
Il had q severe attack of grip and, be.
fore I had fully recovered, rheumatism
set in and tormcntcd me for three
months. I was in a badly rundown
state. Soon after it began l was so lame
for a week that I could hardly walk. 1t
kept growing steadily worse and at last
! had to give up completely and for
three weeks I was obliged to keep my
bed. My knees were SO stiff l couldn't
bend them, and my hands were perfectly
helpless. Then the pains began to
threaten my heart aud thoroughly
alarmed me.
"While I was suffering in this way ]
CHANGED to run across a little book that
told about the merits Of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. The statements in it i'm
pressed me and led me to buy a box. These
pills proved tho very thing I needed
Improvement set in as soon as l began
to take them. and it was very marked by
the time I had finished the first box
