Saratoga, June 27.-The very name,
Saratoga" brings to every mind
health-giving springs, unsurpassed
hotels and beautiful drives. 1t
has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living, and are searching
for health, or are simply taking a va
cation.
The Grand Union, the largest sum-
among green trees with it's long wings
enclosing a court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees, music and
light, is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by it's manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to it's attractiveness by introduce
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
NAL proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best Of every
thing, and now, after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
it, and have connected Upward Of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant.
Like many discoveries of recent
years which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one of the most re-
cent, is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary ap
paratus can be understood and oper-
ated by anyone.
The generator in which Acetylene
is produced by the automatic contact
Of carbide and water might be termed
a gas plant, as it performs all of the
functions Of a city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
a few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or dozen burners for cottage,
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
in the Grand Union.
Outside of large cities the use of
Acetylene is quite. common. The
owner of the country home now de-
mands running water, gas and other
conveniences which a few years ago
were considered as Injuries, and
acetylene gas has met his require
ments, and gives him a better and
cheaper light than is ordinarily fur
nished in cities.
1t is we'll known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable,
because cooler, and more healthful be-
cause the air is not vitiated.

WHY THEY ARE HAPPY
TWO NOTABLE RECOVERTEs FROM
EXTREME DEBILITY.
Husbands Strength Had Been Waning for
Three Years, Wife n Sufferer from
Female Weakness,

"My strength had dwindled so that
couldn't apply myself to my business
with any snap but was tired and listless
all the time, said Mr.. Goldstein.
u went to bed completely used up by
my days work, and when L got up i'll
the morning didn t feel rested bit.
had awful headaches too, and my kid
neys got out Of order and caused me to
have severe pains i'll the back. At one
time became so feeble that l could not
stir from bed for three weeks"
Mr.. Goldstein is a young man and had
then but recently established home of
his own. His anxieties were increased
by the fact that his wife was far from
being robust. Mrs. GoldStein says
"For two years had been i'll most Of
the time. Sometimes was confined to
bed for weeks Ill succession under ply
sician s care. I had headaches, kidney
trouble, pain about the heart and many
more uncomfortable symptoms con-
nected with that weakness to which my
sex is peculiarly subject"
Trouble had invaded this household
and settled i'll it in just the years that
ought to be the very happiost. Physicians
could not tell them how to get rid Of it.
IT was utterly discouraged, said Mr..
Goldstein. "Then the urgency of some
friends led me to try blood and nerve
remedy which was said to be wonder
fully successful. Within month there
were unmistakable signs of improvement
in my condition, and within a year I
was completely well. Through the use
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills 1 have now
as good health as ever had i'll my life"
Mrs. Goldstein adds: "The wonderful
effect that DIR. Williams Pink Pills had
i'll the case of my husband led me to try
them and they helped me even more
quickly than they did him. One box
made me decidedly better and few
months treatment cured me-"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the best
tonic and regulator, they make pure,
rich blood and when there is general
weakness and disorder that is what che
system needs. Mr.. and Mrs. FL. Goldstein
live at SO Cove street, East Boston, Mass.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
druggists everywhere.
