He said at one time: The women who toll are the only women of rank in America"

MADE NEW STRENGTH
QUICKER THAN DOCTORS TONICS,
 SAYS TYPHOID PATIENT.
Young Lady Left by Fever in Very Weak State Uses Dr. Williams Pink Pills
 with Gratifying Results.

After fever, such as typhoid or scar let, has run it's full course there remains the recovery of strength. The tonic that will most rapidly increase the red cor puseles in the blood is the one that will most quickly restore color to the pale cheeks, strength to the weak muscles, and elasticity to the sluggish nerves. So far nothing has ever been produced su- perior to Dr. Williams Pink Pills for this purpose.
 Miss Midendorf had been i'll with typhoid fever for fourteen weeks. She had a good physician who carreid her safely through the critical stages. When he left, nothing remained to be done ex- eept to build up her strength, which was very feeble, and he gave her some pre- scriptions for that purpose. Here, how. ever, she met with disappointment.
 " took the doctors tonics, she says, "for two months after 1 had recovered from the fever, but they did not do ma the good looked for. My strength came back 50 slowly that l scarcely seemed to be making any progress at all. Just then I read i'll q book thrown Ill our yard some striking testimonials showing what wonderful blood-builders and strength -givers Dr. Williams Pink Pills are. I got box of them soon after this and after had taken only about half of them could see very great im- proyement i'll my condition. When had used up two boxes, felt that did not need any more medicine. l have remained strong ever since"
 Miss E. B. Midendorf lives at No. | 1901 Park street, Quincy, III. Dr. Will Hams Pink Pills are tue best remedy to use ill all cases of weakness, from what ever cause the system may be run down. In cases of debility due to overwork they minister fresh strength and overcome nervous symptoms. They are a specific for anamia or bloodlessness. They are particularly helpful ts girls on the verge of womanhood. They meet all tho re- quirements of the period known as the change of life. They correct spring languor They strengthen weak diges- 1 tion and rouse up sluggish organs. No other tonic combines 50 many virtues. All druggists sell them.

RECENT INVENTIONS.

A new and ingenious pocket cal culator automatic in it's action, has been designed by a German inventor The device comprises a small case about six inches in length made of steel and aluminium There is key board of nine figures corresponding to the numerals. and 1t is additionally provided with a small spring for the supply of the tens and hundreds There is also a small dial and by pressing the requisite keys the total amount is recorded upon the dial.
 The latest improvement in the way of a serewdriver provides for a mon key-wrench attachment for use when powerful pressure must be brought to bear where it is desired to remove screws which have become securely imbedded in their places by means of rust or other reasons. This new i'm plement is made with square shank of rather stout proportions, and this enables the workman to make use of a monkey wrench in conjunction with the screwdriver, and thus the most
 
 dislodged.
 Richard Strut, a son of Lord Ray leigh, has invented q clock which, he says will run for 2000 years The motive power is a small piece of gold leaf which is electrified by means of very small quantity of radium salt The gold leaf bends away from the metal substance and keeps moving under this influence until it touches the side of the containing vessel. At the moment of contact 1t loses its cleo trical charge and then springs back and is again electrified, and the process is repeated It is thought that a thor oughly reliable clock could be made with the use of ra2Iam salt for Sl,00O
