THE TEACHERS FOE
A LIFE ALWAYS THREATENED BY
NERVOUS PROSTRATION.
One Who Broke Down from Six Years of
Overwork Tells How She Escaped
Misery of Enforced IdIeness. :


"I had been teaching in the city
schools steadily for six years" said Miss
James, whose recent return to the work
from which she was driven by nervous
collapse has attracted attention. ''They
were greatly overcrowded, especially in
the primary department of which I had
charge, and l had been doing the work
of two teachers. The strain was too
much for my nerves and two years ago
the crisis came.
81 was Frustrated mentally and ply
sically, sent in my resignation and never
expected to be able to resume work. 1t
seemed to me then that I was the most
miserable m on earth. I was tor
tured by nervous headaches, worn out by
inability to sleep, and had so little
blood that / was al white as chalk.
"After my active life, it was hard to
bear idleness, and terribly discouraging
to keep paying out the savings of years
for medicines which did me no good"
Glow did you get back your health? ?"
ga bare chance and q lot of faith led
me to a cure. After / had suffered for
hiohy llohelSJ ahu Wuou 1 was Oh Tue
very verge Of despair, I happened to read
an account of some cures effected by
DIR. Williams Pink Pills. The state.
ments were SO convincing that I some,
how felt assured that these pills would
help me. Most people, / think, buy only
one box for a trial, but I purchased sir
boxes at once, and when / had used
them up, I was indeed well and had no
need of more medicine.
CDR. Williams Pink Pills enriched my
thin blood, gave me back my sleep, re-
stored my appetite, gave me strength to
walk long distances without fatigue, in
fact freed me from all my numerous all
ments. I have already taught for several
months, and l canno say enough in
praise of DIR. Williams Pink Pills"
Miss Margaret M. James is now living
at No. 1913 Clay street, Dayton, Ohio.
Many Of her fellow teachers have also
used DR.. Williams Pink Pills and are
enthusiastic about their merits. Sound
digestion, strength, ambition, and cheer
full spirits quickly follow their use. They
are sold in every drug store in the
world.

UNITED VERDE MINE CAVES IN.
Senator Clark's Great Copper Proper
~ Nav Have To Be Abandoned.

Prescott, AriZ., May 23.-Millions OF
tons of rock and earth caved in at
noon in Senator Clark's United Verde
Upper mine at Jerome, Ariz, the
ground dropping over the surface to
the 700.foot level. Cracking timbers
gave the alarm and 800 miners fed
for their lives and escaped uninjured.
For several days the ground had
been settling and timbers creaking.
With a mighty crash, the earth caved,
carrying with it the new shaft, levels,
drifts and slopes. From assures on
the surface comes clouds of sulphur
smoke from that part of the mine
which has been on fire for several
years.
The extern of the damage cannot
as yet be ascertained, but II 1t is as
bad as feared, the great property will
be closed and the existence of Jerome
will be doomed. The hosting works,
which are over the mine, have settled
and the machinery cannot be worked.
The smelling plant has also been shut
down and all activity ceased. The Of
ficials of the company take an opti-
mistic view of the situation and say
the damage is no irreparable and that
the smelter will be working again
within a month.
