.SClAT|C. TORTURE
PAIN SUFFERED BY MR.. MARSTON
AS GREAT AS MORTAL GAN STAND.
For Six Months He Could Not Turn In

FOR six Months He Could Not Turn I'm
Bed-He Tells of Remedy Which
Has Given Perfect Relief
The case of Mr.. Marston shows that
sciatica can be cured, and no one afflicted
by it should allow himself to be dis
heartened. He was first stricken about
year ago, and for six months he suffered
pain which he thinks the most intense
that any man could possibly stand.
Asked about the details of his remark
able recovery, Mr.. Marston gave the fol-
lowing account: st was attacked by a
numbness or dull feeling just back Of my
right hip. didn't know what the mat
ter was, but thought it was simply q
stiffness that would wear away in
short time. It didn't, however, and
soon the pain became SO very bad that
every step was torture for me. When
finally succeeded in getting home, it was
lust as much as could do to reach my
room and get to bed.
"The doctor was sent for, and when he
had examined me he said had sciatica.
He prescribed for me, and advised me not
to try to leave my bed. The advice was
unnecessary for I couldn't get out Of
bed if I wanted to. It was impossible for
me to turn from one side to the other.
The moment I attempted to move any
part of my body, the pain became so ex-
cruciating that I would have to lie per-
fectly motionless.
ct suffered this torture for six months
without getting any relief. Then dis
charged the doctor, and On the advice OF
a friend bought box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and began to take them, three
at dose, three times day. I was de-
termined to give them thorough trial.
"Two months after began to use
them I was able to leave my bed and
walk about the house, and a month later
was entirely cured and able to go about
my work as usual. I think DR.. Williams
Pink Pills are the best medicine ever
used, and heartily recommend them to
anyone who suffers from sciatica.
Mr.. Marston is 81 prosperous farmer
and may be reached by mail addressed
to Charles P. Marston, Hampton p. o.,
New Hampshire. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills have cured other painful nervous
disorders, such as neuralgia, partial par
alysis and locomotor ataxia. They are
sold by all druggists.

Men die long before their time be-
cause they try to crowd too much into

writes of the good that simple diet
has done her:

about six months. began rather spar
ingly, until acquired such liking for
it that for the last three months

tirely for my diet, eating nothing else

fast and supper, and / believe I could
eat it for dinner with fruit and be sat
isfied without other food, and feel

"When I began the use OF Grape
Nuts / was thin and weak, my muscles
were so soft that / was not able to do
any work. weighed only 108 pounds.
Nothing that | ate did me any good.
l was going down hill rapidly, was
nervous and miserable. with no ambi-
ton for anything. My condition. Inn

Grape-Nuts food. 1t made me feel
like a new woman; my muscles got
solid. my figure rounded out, my
weight increased to 126 pounds in
few weeks, my nerves grew steady
and my mind better and clearer. My
friends tell me they haven't seen me
look so well for years.

Togo the Silent.

The japanese have many virtues,
artistic virtues if you please, which
we of the vGluble and expressive West
might do well TO admire if not TO imi-

conspicuous for their sparing use of
words. If anything is TO be done, the
man upon whom the duty rests pro-
ceeds TO do It without prophecy or
rodomontade, and when the work is
accomplished the report is made in
simple and direct language merely
conveying information of the fact.

with a fame that not marble. nor the
gilded monuments of princes, shall

When the memorials OF Emperors
shall have crumbled into dust, when
of the literature OF Western civiliza-

The Narrow Things Of Home.

When the manuscript of THE Life

submitted, The Times thought it had
veritable find in the way of story
OF intense human and local interest
Enough of the story has already come
from the crucible of the linotype, and
the story has attracted enough gen
eraI and weII-trained favorable opin-
ion, for The Times to begin to in
dulge in a little self-gratulation for
standing sponsor for 1t.
The style Of its author has a sim
piicity and directness, an absence of
all so-eaIled literary ornament, that
lends charm and distinction TO his
clear d.ction So far there has been
no straining for effect, no forced sit
uations. no torturing of our mother
tongue TO lend added emphasis TO
the story. The tale is told with ali
the simple force and directness Of an
intimate confession from one to his
friend. We believe the author Is
making a host of friends.
In the installment for last Sunday,
the Cog in the Wheel reaches that
part of his story where the joys Of
happy marriage are blended with
what Horace called the narrow things
OF home. This gives an intimate
