NO MORE HEADACHE
GENERAL WEAKNESS AND FEVER
DISAPPEAR TOO.
How a Woman Was Freed from Troubles
That Had Made Life Wretched for
Many Years. !
Tho Immediate causes of headaches
vary, but most Of them come from poor
or poisoned blood. In ansemia the blood
is scanty or thin the nerves are imper-
fecct1y nonrishad and main in thu way in.
which they express their weakness. In
colds the blood absorbs poison from the
mucous surfaces, and the poison initiates
the 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 at best
give only temporary relief. They deaden
the pain but do not drive the poison out
Of the blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
on the contrary thoroughly renew the
blood and the pain disappears perma-
nently. Women in particular have found
these pills an unfailing relief in head
aches caused by an@mia.
Miss Stella Blocker recently said: 'Dr.
Williams Pink Pills did me great deal
Of good. had headache nearly all the
time. After had taken three boxes Of
these pills I became entirely well.''
Chow long had you suffered ?" she
was asked.
"For several years. I can't tell the
exact date when my illness began for it

going down hill for many years."

.UNIVERSALISTS
ARE IN SESSION
Nearly 400 Delegates Hailing
from All Parts of the

Between 300 and 400 clergymen and
laymen of Universalist churches thru
out the United States, assembled in
Minneapolis today to attend the meet

preliminary gathering to the biennial
convention Of Universalists, which will
formally convene Saturday morning.
All yesterday and today the dele
gates kept arriving on incoming trains
The largest single delegation was that
from New England and New York, 200
in all. The special train which brought
them was due to reach Minneapolis at
noon yesterday, but was delayed at Chi
cago, and did not arrive till nearly 5
O'Clock in the afternoon. Most of the
delegates at once proceeded to the
West, several, however, taking quarters
at the Nicollet and National. The New
England special was met yesterday at
Wabasha by Rev. and Mrs. Marion D
Shutter and w. P. Roberts, as a welcom
ing committee from the Minneapolis

the national board Of trustees was in

their meeting. r..

Raleigh, N. G., Oct. 19.-With the
music Of the band and many cheers
greeting him, the president of the
United States came to Raleigh today
and delivered ight-from- the-shoul,
der speech on railroad rate reform anu
the enactment of necessary laws. he
said:
1.-THE extraordinary development Of
industrialism during the last half cen
tury has been due to several causes, but
above all to the revolution in the meth
DDS of transportation and commun!ca-
ton; that is, to steam and to electricity,
to the railroad and the telegraph.
"When this government was founded
commerce was carried on by essentially
the same instruments that had been In
use not only among civilized, but among
barbarian, nations, ever since history
drawn by animals, by pack trains, and
by sailing ships and rowboats. On land
this meant that commerce went in slow
cumberous,. and expensive fashion over
highways open to all. Normally these
highways could not compete with water
transportation, if such was feasible be-
tween the connecting points.
New Conditions.

ROCKS IN THE WAY
OF .BACON'S PLAN
Trouble Ahead for Convention to
Recommend Extension of
L. G. G. Powers.
A RUMP CONVENTION
ALREADY ARRANGED
They Will Seek Entrance to Ba-
cons Gathering Before Flock
ing by Themselves.

Twin-city business interests do not
seem to be displaying any extravagant
haste in preparing to attend the con-
vention of the Interstate Commerce
Law association, called to meet in Chi
cago Oct. 26, to discuss ways and
Esch-T Townsend bill, increasing the
powers of the interstate commerce COM
mission.
The st. Paul Jobbers' association
took action yesterday on the invita-
tion to send a delegate, by voting to
ignore the convention. The Mississippi
Valley Lumbermen s association has
been invited to send delegate and
will do so, but the sentiment of the
association is not strictly in favor Of
giving the rate-making power to the
interstate commerce commission. Tbs
Commercial club, in all probability, will
send no delegate.
Other commercial associations from
all parts Of the country are invited
and will send delegates or not, as they
see fit. One thing is certain, however,
and that is that the convention will
not be a cut-and-dried affair, and no
pre-arranged program will be railroaded
thru without opposition. There will be
delegates present who, like the dele.

WORK OF PEACE MEN.
ENJOYS DISCUSSING Terms At
PORTSMOUTH
Russians Yield on Seven of Eight De.
mands Considered, Including the
Chinese Rai1road-The Powers Bring
Strong Pressure on Bei1igerents.

Portsmouth IN. HI correspondence:
Five articles of the possible treaty
of Washington" remained to be consid-
cred when the peace plenipotentiaries
resumed their session at the Ports
mouth navy yard Thursday morning
Sakhalin, upon which it had been i'm
possible to agree and which had been
passed over; indemnity, limitation
upon Russia's sea power, the surrender
of the interned warships and the grant
of fishing. rights on the littoral of the
maritive provinces.
Peace prospects seemed distinctly
brighter during Thursday. The pleni-
potentiaries labored with q seriousness
and earnestness which left not the
slightest doubt that both were anxious
to conclude treaty. Though the main
points remained to be contested and
the plenipotentiaries of each side spoke
as if the conference would go to pieces
unless the other side gave way, the
spirit of compromise was in the air.
Articles Z and s were disposed of
Wednesday, the former lin principle,
the latter unanimously" according to
the official bulletins. Article Z provides
for the cession to China of the branch
of the Chinese Eastern Railroad run
ming south from Harbln to Port Arthur
and Talny and with branch line con-
Meeting at Newchang with the Shan
haikan-Tientsin road.
Article s provides for the retention
by Russia of the line through Northern
Manchuria, which forms the connect
ing link of the main line of the Trans
Siberian and the Usurri Railroad with
its terminal at Vladivostok and Khab-
arovsk.
Russia Gives Up Water Outlet.
Russia, by the acceptance of these
two articles, in connection with arti-
cles 2, 8, 4 and 6, surrenders every
vestige of her ambition in Manchuria.
She closes the door to the warm water,
ice-free port of Dalny, upon which she
lavished her millions, and retains only,
as commercial road, the link of rail
road connecting her European posses
sions with the maritime provinces
upon the Pacific. The right to police it
with Russian troops or railroad guards
is given up, and its protection will be-
come the duty of China.
Russia has yielded TO Japan on all
questions which precipitated the war.
She has agreed to the evacuation of
Manchuria, has promised to preserve
as far as possible the integrity of China
and has not opposed the cession of the
Chinese Eastern Railway to the ceies-
tial empire.
