GREAT POWER
When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed, DR.. Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism.

Hundreds of people afflicted with rheu-
matism have spent years under the care
of excellent physicians i'll vain. Then
they have settled down to the conviction
that it is fastened on them for life. Mrs.
Dinsmore was not willing to join the
ranks of the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her.
Here is her story:
"Four years ago I suffered greatly
with rheumatism i'll my hands and
knees. After 1 had been sitting a while
my limbs seemed so heavy could hardly
walk OH the first attempt. So long as I
kept moving 1 was all right, but just as
soon as I stopped, something seemed to
settle i'll my knees and make them ache.
NV hands were so bad l couldn't touch
the palms of them on a fiat surface; they
were swollen and panied SO"
"Did you call i'll a physician?"
"I doctored steadily for over a year;
then one doctor said: You have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still, it did not kill me nor
the rheumatism.
"How, then. did you get rid of it,"
CAT different times had read in Vari-
ous publications about DR.. Williams
wonderful Pink Pills for Pale People,
and 1 finally decided to try them. 1 took
them steadily for four months in ac-
cordance with the directions. By that
time I was completely cured"
"Have you been free from it ever
since?'
"Since then I have had but one slight
return of my trouble, and box or two Of
the same pills made me alright again. "
Mrs F. A. DinsmOre lives in hearty
enjoyment of her recovered health at
Woburn, Mass, entirely freed from the
grave anxieties that xheumatism always
brings. When it appears i'll but a single
joint it shows that the blood is in faulty
state i'll the whole body. 1t may at any
moment break out elsewhere, and one Of
the dangers is that it may break out ID
the heart and then the result must be
fatal. The only security is to keep the
blood all the time i'll perfectly sound
condition.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills make healthy
blood. All other relief is superficial.
This is thorough. These pills are sold
by all druggists.

MIGHT HAVE SAVED 1T.
a Lot of Trouble from Too Much
Starchy Food.

A little boy of eight years whose
parents did not feed him on the right
kind of food, was always nervous and
suffered from weak condition of the
stomach and bowels. Finally he was
taken down with appendicitis and after
the operation the doctor, knowing that
his intestinal digestion was very weak,
put him on Grape Nuts twice a day.
He rapidly recovered and about two
months thereafter, his Father states,
He has grown to be strong, muscular.
and sleeps soundly, weighs 62 pounds,
and his whole sycem is in a fine
condition of health" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
1t is plain that if he had been put on
Grape-Nuts at an earlier period in his
life, and kept from the use of foods
that he could not digest, he never
would have had appendicitis. That
disease is caused by undigested food
decaying in the stomach and bowels,
causing irritation and making for the
growth Of all kinds Of microbes, set
ting up a diseased condition which is
the active cause of appendicitis, and
this is more marked with people who
do not properly digest white bread.
Grape-Nuts is made of the selected
parts of wheat and barley and by the
peculiar processes of the cooking at the
factory, all of the starch is turned into
sugar ready for immediate digestion
and the more perfect nourishment OF
all parts Of the body, particularly the
brain and nerve centres.

The Woman Tells OF Her Eleva-
tiOn From a Low Position to
One of Affiuence.
SHE is CHARGED WITH EXTORTION
Mrs. Elias Admitted She Had Served
Terms in Prison For Larceny
and DisOrderIy Conduct.
Mr.. Patt Is Suing Her To Compel Her
To Return $685,o Which He
Claims She Extorted
From Him.

| New York, Jan. 19.-Hannah Elias,
the Negress whom aged John R. Platt
is suing to compel her to return $685.
| 900 which he claims she eXtOrted from
him during an acquaintance of 20
years, told the story Of her life before
| Justice O'Gorman, in the supreme
court 1t was an extraordinary tale
| of sudden elevation from the lowest
and most vicious surroundings to a
position of af1uence where money was
literally rained on her and where she
had everything that great wealth
could provide. She declared that she
had nothing TO conceal and insisted
that every dollar that Platt gave her
| had been given voluntarily. She be-
lieved, she said, that she was under
no obligations to return any part Of
the money which she now possesses.
How much money Platt gave her she
could not say, even approximately, as
she never kept any accounts of his
gifts, which we're made IN large sums
at frequent intervals during their en-
tire acquaintance.
Mr.. PIatt Was Very Generous.
Mr. Platt was very generous, even
from the first, she said, but he became
more so after the death of his wife
in 1898. He told her at that time that
he wanted to provide for her hand
somely and explained that if he men
toned her in his will contest might
result. He had decided, therefore, to
give her a great deal of money while
he was yet alive. He advised her to
invest this money carefully and sug-
gested that it might be we'll for her to
place a considerable portion of it in
savings banks. She said that the old
man always had been very kind to her.
Six months after his wife's death he
gave the witness Mrs. Platt's watch
and pOcketbook, She identified these
articles when they were produced by
Mr. Black Mrs. Elias apparently
made no attempt to cover the details
of her early life. She answered read
lily every question by her counsel as
to her methods of life in Philadelphia
and Immediately after coming to this
city, and admitted that she had served
two terms in prison, one in Philadel-
phia for larceny and the other in this
city for disorderly conduct.
Distributed Her Wealth Freely.
1t developed during the examina-
tion of witnesses that Mrs Elias had
distributed her easily acquired wealth
with a free hand among those who
had been of assistance to her. Law
yer Washington Brauns received from
her more than $4,000 in fees. She
paid more than 100000 to one firm for
carpets and furniture. A man, who
acted as godfather at the christening
of her child, received present of ST.
900, and when the child died it was
placed in a mausoleum which she
erected at a cost of $4,000 1t appear
ed from the testimony also that John
R. Platt had paid Lawyer Nanz $3,500
in connection with one of the Elias
suits in which the lawyer was inter
eSted.
