One Follows the Other, but DR.. Will

The steady use of particular set of
muscles tends to chronic fatigue, which
produces faulty or difficult motion,

stresses are among the classes most
threatened in this way with the loss OF
their power to earn living. The fol
lowing instance shows that nerve power
may be recovered after it seems entirely
lost, if the right means are taken. Mrs.
o. S. Blacksten, of No. 5S4 North Bow
man street, Mansfield, Ohio, says:
"For years my hands would become
so numb at times that l would drop
anything | attempted to lift. Later
they became so bad that could not sew
any longer, and at last l could scarcely
do anything at all with my hands. At
night the picking sensations would
come on worse than ever, and my hands
and arms would pain so that l dreaded
to go to bed. Ny family doctor gave me
some nerve tablets. They helped me a
little, but only for short time after
had taken them and if happened to be
without them for day or two would
be as bad as ever or even worse. Finally
/ got a box of DIR. Williams Pink Pills
and began to take them.
"The result was surprising. By the
time had taken the last pill in my first
box could see a gain. Thanks to DR..
Williams Pink Pills, 1 am now all right.
1 can sleep undisturbed by pain, and for
two wears I have been as well as ever.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills feed the
nerves by. making new, rich blood and
in this way have cured nervous diseases
of every description from simple rest

ished the fortunes of neuralgia, the
weakness of nervous prostration, the
disability and awful pain of locomotor

MISSOURI BUILDING BURNS.
Beautiful Structure at Portland Faif
Destroyed.

Portland, Ore, Oct. 1.-THE Mis-
souri, state building at the Lewis and
Clark exposition was completely de-
stroyed by fire. Practically nothing of
the magnificent exhibit gathered by
the Missouri state commission was
saved and the beautiful collection of
art and statuary which was one of
the features of the Missouri display
will prove almost a complete loss. 1t
is estimated that the peculiarly loss
will exceed $4,000 with no insurance
save $4,000 on the art exhibit. O..
All that remained standing when
the fire was gotten under control was
the colorado entrance surmounted by
a half dozen angelic figures which
stood out spectre like against the
gloom of the night.
How the fire started is a mystery.
The flames were first seen by youth
who was walking near the building.
He Immediately turned in the alarm
which summoned the exposition and
city fire departments to the scene.
The secret service agents are work
ing on the theory that the fire was
of incendiary origin and that it start
ed among a collection of packing cases
stored just in the rear of the build

THEY ARE SUSTAINED
Impressions Gwen In Packers Case by
Judge Humphrey.
HEARING OF ARGUMENTS CLOSED.
It Now Looks Like Half of Indict-
ments Charging Packers With Con-
spiracy in Restraint of Trade Will
Be Sustained.

Chicago, Oct. 1.-THE hearing of
arguments on the demurrers to the in
dictment returned by the federal
grand jury against five of the big
packing concerns and seventeen of
their employees was closed late this
afternoon and if Judge Humphrey be-
fore whom the arguments have been
made, retains his present impression
of the case, one-half of the indict-
ments charging the packers with con-
spiracy in restraint of trade will be
sustained and the remaining counts
overruled. When it was announced
that the case had been closed Judge
Humphrey said:
LAS it now looks to the court the
odd numbered counts are sufficient
and the even numbered counts INSULT
cient. The argument has been so
clear that this is my personal impress
sion.
81 will faithfully read the authori-
ties cited by each side in this case.
When 1 am ready to render my de-
cision in the cases l will notify the
district attorney and the attorneys for
the defendants.
"The odd numbered indictments
which may be considered sufficient by
the court charge conspiracy among
the defendants in restraint Of trade.
The even numbered counts charge a
monopoly. The first count in the in
dictment is not to be considered in
the decision OF Judge Humphrey as
to this count the packers are to
plead guilty and go TO trial imme-

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in A-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a
1907. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
tiers and figures "16 ozs." Demand
Defiance and save much time and
money and the annoyance of the iron
sticking. Defiance never sticks.

Dignity of August.

Few persons know why August has
thirty-one days. July, which takes it's
name from julius Caesar, has thirty
one days, and Augustus, who com-
pleted the calendar, declined to SUBJ
nit to the indignity of seeing his own
month branded with the inferiority
of one day less. The astronomers had
accordingly to reshuffie the lunar
cards, and after some perplexity hit
upon the expedient of shearing twenty
four hours from February's glory in
order that August might face the
world on footing of perfect equality
with July.

BY Special Department a Daily Pa
per Was Printed for the Gar.
While the Russian citizen has per-
force to buy his foreign papers with,
to him, portion of the most inter-
esting news BACKED out by the CEN
sor, the car, until the commencement
of the Japanese war, was supplied
with the news of the outside world
only through the medium of a daily
paper printed for him by special de-
partment of the foreign Office.
This contained items translated
from all the European papers, and was
printed upon fine paper from special
type. All items which might be dis
posed to be disquieting to the car
were eliminated by the editors, and
the freshly printed sheet contained
only such news as was likely to please
the one subscriber
After the commencement of the war,
however, the car insisted on also be-
ing supplied with "unblacked' copies
of certain English papers, and these
were sent unwillingly by the censors
who. in times past, resorted to odd
devices to keep certain publications
from their imperial master, counter
feits sometimes even being printed.

1t seemed so simple to turn Calcium Carbide into
Gas-lght that GOO different kinds of tanks" and
"Acetylene Machines" were invented, patented and
marketed for the purpose, by about many different
people.
Well, the thing to be expected certainly happened
About $50 of these "Acetyene Machines" had been
invented and sold by people who knew more about
Tin7eare than they did about Gas-mdking.
The Calcium Carbide" was all right all the time,
but $50 of the machines for turning it into Gas were
all wrong all the time.

1t was like selling Wood Stores to burn Hard Coal

There is no public demand and
