NERVOUS COLLAPSE
Sinking Spells, Headaches and
rheumatism ell Yield to Dr..
Williams Pink Pills.

Mrs. Lizzie Williams, Of No. 416 Ce-
dar street, Quincy, ILL.,, says: "Ever
since I had nervous prostration, about
thirteen years ago, have had periodical
spells of complete exhaustion. The doc
tor said my nerves were shattered. Any
excitement or unusual activity would
throw me into state Of lifelessness.
At the beginning my strength would
come back in moderate time after each
attack, but the period Of weakness kept
lengthening until Mt last I would lie
helpless as many as three hours at q
stretch. had dizzy feelings. palpita-
ton Of the heart, misery after eating,
hot flashes, nervous headaches, rheu-
matte pains in the back and hips. The
doctor did me so little good that I gave
up his treatment, and really feared that
my case was incurable
"When began taking DR.. Williams
Pink Pills my appetite grew keen,
my food no longer distressed me, my
nerves were quieted to degree that I
had not experienced for years and my
strength returned. The fainting spells
left me entirely after 1 had used the
third box of the pills, and my friends
say that 1 am looking better than / have
done for the past fifteen years."
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are recon.
mended for diseases that come from i'm.
poverished blood such as an9mia, rheu.
matism, debility and disorders of the
nerves such - neuralgia, nervous pros.
tration and partial paralysis. They have
cured the most stubborn indigestion.

Artificial elk the Latest.

In Gothenburg, Sweden, or at some
place In It's neighborhood, will soon
be built large factory for the man
ufacture Of artificial silk for export.

ed there with q capital not to be less
than 3160,800 and not to exceed $4S2,-
400, with the purpose of building
factory and exploiting an invention
made by Engineer X. w. Strehlenert,
Of Djursholm, Sweden, for the manu-
facture Of vegetable silk. Excluding
experiments. this industry is new in
Sweden. and II is claimed that the silk
manufactured from nitro -cellulose by
Mr.. Strehlenerts method has just as
fine an appearance and is just as
strong or durable as natural silk, or
even stronger. 1t Is further stated
that the silk has been tested or tried
in Swedish or German cloth factories

been received about it.-Consular Re-

NECESSITIES FOR SICK ROOM.
Simple Precautions That viii Save
Lives and Money.

A set OF dishes should be selected
for the sick room and these should be
washed by the nurse and never mixed
with the dishes used by the family.
The nurse should disinfect all bed and
body linen used by the patient and
also keep the sick room and all be.
longings to 1t free from infection.
Nothing contam,nates the atmosphere
more than dust and nothing creates
worse air dust contamination than the
spilling Of foul discharges on floors,
rugs and bed and body linen and allow
ing them to dry. All such foul matter
should be wiped up at once with a
moist disinfected cloth which should
be burned. A broom is out OF place
in sick room. 1t only scatters the
dust into the air. The only safe dis
posal Of the refuse from a quarantined
room Is cremation. The nurse in
charge OF case Of contagious disease
should avoid direct contact with other
members OF the family, especially chill.
dren. II needs be she must mingle
with others she should have a special
gown for the sick room which should
be discarded with her cap on coming
out and always worn in the room, and
she should disinfect her hands before
touching anything outside OF the room.
All these simple, commonplace quar-
antine regulations faithfully carried
out would save thousands of lives
yearly among the children Of the land
and also greatly lessen the cost to
common people for illness and funeral
expenses. Nothing would pay better
than for the heads of all American
households to be their own health Of.

In washing sweater, rub thor

odor Of the soap out Of the wool. Be
sure never to hang up sweater to

stretches the garment.

you must dry II on the fire escape
or in a window, spread out first a
newspaper and then cover that with
towels or a sheet to keep the water

Two Good Cleaning Recipes.

Here is a recipe which Is efflcacious
for cleaning fabrics without injuring
their texture or changing their color.
1t Is also particularly good in cleaning
rugs and carpets. Crate two raw pota.
toes in a bowl which contains pint
of clear, cold water. Now strain
through a sieve. allowing the liquid to
fall into another bowl containing an.
other pint OF cold water. When 1t
settles, pour off the water into bot
tie and keep for future use. Dip a
sponge into the potato water and rub
the soiled garment carefully. after
which it may be washed in clear wa
ter.
When ivory knife handles get discol.
ored dip half lemon in salt and rub
on them. Wash off Immediately In
warm water, and the handles will look
as white as when new.

To Sweeten Musty Cellar.

A damp. musty cellar may be sweet.
ened by sprinkling upon the floor pull.
verized copperas, chloride of lime, or
even common lime. The most effec-
tive means ever used to disinfect de-
caying vegetable matter Is chloride
of lime In solution. One pound may
be dissolved In two gallons Of water.
Plaster of paris has also been found
an excellent absorbent OF noxious
odors. II used one part with three
parts Of charcoal. 1t will be found
still better.
