NO MORE HEADACHE

DISAPPEAR TOO.
How a Woman Was Freed from Troubles
That Had Made Life wr.tshsd for
Many Neara,


Tho immediate causes OF headaches
vary. but most OF them come from pooI
or poisoned blood. In annmia the blood
is scanty or thin /; the nerves nre imper-
fectly nourished and pain is the way in
which they express their weakness. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surfaces. and the poison irritates
tn, nerves and produces pain. In rheu-
| matism. malaria and the grip, the poison
in the blood produces like discomfort. In
indigestion the gases from the impure
matter kept in the system affect the
blood in the same way.
The ordinary headache-cures Mt best
give only temporary relief. They deadea
tho pain but do not drive the poison out
of the blood. DIR. Williams Pink Pills
on tho contrary thoroughly renew tho
blood and the pain disappears perma-
nently. Women in particular have found
these pills an uufRiling relief in head
aches caused by annmia.
Miss Stella Blocker recently said: "Dr.
Williams Pink Pills did me great deal

This is also the reason why thousands

her great knowledge, obtained from

New Orleans, Aug. 25.-If all the
houses are properly screened end
disinfected there are reasonable
hopes of complete cessation of the
yellow fever in New Orleans before
October first, in the opinion of Sur

time the federal medical officers are
making complete sanitary survey
of the city for the purpose OF acquir-
ing statistics covering every habita-
bic portion Of the city.
There has been considerable trou-
bic with the Italians in the commun-
ity of Good Hope, a short distance
above New Orleans. An emergency
hospital has been erected at that
place, but the Italians are in rebel
lion against it and there is not q
sufficient police force to compel them
to submit to the regulations. A
large number of cases of the fever
have been discovered st Bayou Bouef.

Tribute to Lexington.

Ladies and Gentlemen of Lexing-
ton: I voice the sentiment of all the
old Veterans in saying that you
reached the zenith of glory when you
gave them the grandest and most
friendly entertainment that ever I
witnessed.
The program was rendered to per-
fection. Your town is our modern
Athens. The Veterans names and
deeds were praised and lauded to
the skies; the music was soul stirring
and soul cheering, and waited our
hearts to heights unmeasured by
the eye. The arrangement for our
board and lodging was the best
we've had on such occasions.
Here we attempt tribute to the
fair ladies of Lexington:
Athens of old never could boast in
all her glory OF such beautiful and
refined ladies as dear old Lexington;
pretty, intelligent and cultured with
Christian hearts full of sympathy,
who's real worth and loveliness is
beyond description by poets pen or
painters brush.
Our Confederate women, I am
sorry to say, has never been honored
as they deserved to be. Such moth.
ers, wives, sisters and daughters as
they were, can be found only in our
Sunny South, and boys, I know such
| sweethearts as those girls who wore
the homespun dresses could not be
| found anywhere on the globe but in
the South.
Our Confederate women, thei,
voices live on the breeze and their
spirit comes at will; at midnight on
! the seas her bright smiles haunt us
still. To do honor, yea, to pay
homage to them, should be our high
est aim. We would kneel at thei,
feet, or fain would we lay down upor
their graves and kiss the sod beneath
which they sleep. I long for The
time to come when I will see mon
! ument erected to their memory
whose shaft would mingle with Tho
skies, with an equestarisn on toy
whose wings in angel form will 81

and lovely Inscriptions that inventiv,
genious can conceive.
