A CURE FOR DEBILITY
Or. Williams Pink Pills A Reliable
Remedy for the Weak, Allina
and BIoodIess.

When the body is weak and the blood
thin it is sometimes difficult to find the
cause unless n wasting illness has pre-
ceded, or the sufferer happens to be a
girl on the verge of womanhood.
Obscure influences, something un-
healthful in ones surroundings or work, J,
may lead to q slow impoverishment of
the blood and an enfeeblement Of the
whole body. When n serious stage has
been reached there seems to be nothing
that will account for it.
Mr.. o. e. Legg, of Upton, W. Va,
has found successful method of treat
ing weakness and bloodlessness. He
says:
"I used DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
weakness caused by u lingering malarial
fever that began i'll the spring of 1896.
The worst effects of this were indiges-
tion and q bad state of my blood. Twas

generally would say that didn't have
blood enough, or that / didn't have the
right kind of blood mine was too thin.
My kidneys and liver were out of order.
was badly annoyed by sour risings
from my stomach. There was good
deal of pain, too, in my back and under
my right shoulder blade"
How long did these troubles lastP"
For over two years. For four
months of that time l was under the
care of q physician, but his medicine did
me no good. Meanwhile 1 learned Of
the cures that had been wrought by DIR.
Williams Pink Pills"
"You owe your cure to these pills ?"
"I certainly do, and also know that
they are helping others to whom have
recommended them. They have real
merit and 1 know of nothing that would
take their place."

quis. Why, l could never show him

But the Sutherst family was proof
against any excessive delicacy of that
kind, and the marquis married Miss
Gladys Sutherst at st. Martins-in-the
Fields, by special license, in the pres
ence of her father and two friends in
May, 1905.
Thomas Sutherst, the brides father,
barrister-at-law, has had notable
career. In 1891 he appeared as a la.
Dor leader and organized the great
London bus strike; some time later
went into the underwriting and finan-
cial business and prospered so well
that he took house in Grosyenor
square.
His daughter Gladys, the present
Marchioness Townshend, is small but
extremely pretty, with the most beau
tiful real auburn hair and the lowell
est blue eyes imaginable. She is clev-
er, determined, took charge of the
marquis from the day of the marriage,
and put him in his proper place in the
marquisitorial household.
The marquis seems to have married
this charming, gushing young girl in
consideration of loan of e27,0O0
($135, 5,000), to be raised by her finan-
cling father

London.-London is agog over the
fight of the beautiful Marchioness
Townshend to retain the custody of
her titled husband, which was given
her by the lunacy board. Instead of
his dazzling bride of less than year,
the marquis seemed to prefer the COM
pany of a male friend, was violently
eccentric, and could not be kept at
home without restraint, it is claimed.
The dowager marchioness has taken
an appeal from the ruling, and says
she isn't allowed to see her son.
Allegations in the Case.
The allegation that in the beginning
of the twentieth century marquis
of ancient lineage and royal connec-
tions has been made the victim of a
sham lunacy inquiry; that he is a
prisoner in his own house, that his
mother, Dowager Marchioness Town
protests his absolute sanity, and that
this conspiracy should be carried out
in the heart of Mayfair, are certainly
startling facts.
The Townshend family is one of the
oldest in England. Its founder was a
lawyer of great eminence in the reign
of Edward w, while the hero Cor
the victim, as the case may be-, of the
present episode is the sixth marquis,
and third in point of precedence in
the role of marquises in the English
peerage.
When the present marquis succeed
ed to the estates he found them heav-

became violent, and rushed at Mrs.
Sutherst putting his fists in her face.
Mrs. Sutherst was naturally indignant
and pushed Lord Townshends fists
from her, and her hand came in con-
tact with his head. 1t was not blow
merely self-protection. Lord Town
shend has had every comfort, and
has been most kindly and considerate-
ly treated i.
Lord Townshend afterward apollo
gized, and said he would go to Brigh-
ton again the Saturday following.
He accordingly left most agreeably,
promising to return on the Monday.
He did not return for ten weeks-that
is, on January 26.
"on Friday, the 26th of last month,
1t was arranged that we should all

meet at the marquis solicitors in
Jermyn street in order to settle some
details as to the estates. After the
meeting 1 suggested that Lord Town
shend, as he had not seen his wife for
so long, should come back and have
tea, meeting his friends by the 5;45
train to Brighton that evening. We
went to a 'radium' party, and unfor-
tunately remained too late to catch
the train. The marquis thereupon be.
came extremity excited, expressing in
remarkably emphatic language his
desire to get down that night to the
friend with whom he had been stay
ing at Brighton. So hysterical was
he that l thought he must be run
down, and becoming alarmed, l sent
for DR.. Bramwell, of Wimpole street,
to give us his advice.
Shut Up in House.
DR.. Bramwell strongly advised that
Lord Townshend should not go to
Brighton that day, and consequently
Lady Townshend refused to give him
the key of the door, saying that he
had been away ten weeks, and must
stay now at his house in Brook street
with her.
at was this event which decided me
to call in DR.. Savage the next day in
consultation with DR.. Bramwell, both
Of whom were perfect strangers to me.
And these two eminent mental special
lists came to the decision that Lord
Townshend was Of an hysterical ma
ture, easily influenced, and would
consequently be better in the care Of
his wife. An application, signed of
course, by a magistrate, was then
made to the commissioners in lunacy,
reception order was signed on Febru-
ary 3, and on petition the marquis
was duly intrusted to the custody Of
his wife.
"On two occasions the lunacy COM
missioners have personally visited the
marquis and have been greatly struck
by the earnest protestations of friend
ship which Lord Townshend has made
for the friend with whom he stayed
at Brighton. Intercepted letters were
also shown to them as an instance of
the great attachment which his lord
ship has for the gentleman referred to-
10 say that the marquis is pris-
oner in this, his own house, is absurd.
He goes out with me and Lady Town
shend for drives and walks, and last
time saw him (on Saturday, we took
cab to the Hotel Victoria and Carl
ton together, and, in fact, were out
for quite a considerable time" &.
The marquis has given several in
terviews since the order of the lun-
acy commissioners committing him to
the custody of his wife, and in all he
has stated quite frankly that his one
desire is to rejoin his friend at
Brighton. He has shown hesitation
| in speech, nervousness, and when the
marchioness was present has declined
to say anything. He said nothing in
sane or even eccentric, but his wife
says that his attachment to the man
at Brighton amounts to dangerous
| delusion.
His mother asserverates her belief
in his complete sanity, and is working
heaven and earth to get him away
from the tolls Of the Suthersts. She
has appealed to the lunacy commits
sioners against the order they gave,
granting his wife custody of him, and
the whole matter will be fought out
in the courts.
The whole story as 1t stands is one
of the most sordid that the exchange
of titles for gold has yet evolved.

was made thus to walk in the streets
and be the butt of the whole popula-
tion of Wiesbaden.
1T is stated that when they were
in ST. Germain and Paris Lord Town
shend was treated in a shameful man
ner, that in Paris, for instance, he was
made to black his own boots, and that
he was placed under restraint and
guarded by black servant.
Statement by Wife's Father.
The allegations made by friends of
the marquis are denied by Mr.. South
erst, father of the machioness. Fol.
lowing is his statement of the case:
when the, marriage of my daugh-
ter to Lord Townshend was in course
of arrangement and during the dis
cussion as to the marriage settlement
an agreement was come to between
myself and the marquis in which
agreed to procure to be advanced to
his lordship, upon adequate security,
the sum of G27,000 (s135, 5,000), to be
paid to him on certain terms. The
marquis agreed to charge his life in
terest in\the Raynham estates as Sc
curity for this advancement, together
with interest at the rate of four per
cent. per annum, and with the pro-
ceeds of the advance to pay off a loan
Of about &12,000 and other debts
amounting In the aggregate to 927,-
600. 1t was agreed that if the result
of the marriage is that son be born
within a period of IL months the
charge upon the estates should be re-
leased and the amount settled upon
Lady Townshend.
"fhey say agreed to give e27,OOO
before the marriage. AS a matter of
fact there is clause in the above
agreement which says: Upon the
marriage taking place a sum of money
to be mutually agreed upon shall be
advanced by the first party to the
second party, which is to be regarded
as on account of the total sum to. be
advanced and charged as loan" But
in case the G27,000 was not to be paid
until, as the first clause states, the
charge referred to is executed and all
prior existing charges are dealt with
satisfactorily and all necessary re-
not yet been fulfilled. So that dis
poses of the first story.

that this was merely one Of the mar

"a short time after his return tt
town from the honeymoon the marquis
was not feeling very we'll, and hi:
friend suggested that he would like
him to go down to Brighton for few
days. There was nothing more natura
than this, especially, in view of the
fact that before his marriage his lord
ship had lived there for some time.
