FOR NERVOUS PEOPLE
A Michigan Mother Preserved to Her
Family by Dr. Williams
Pink Pills.

When the blood is impoverished the
nerves starve and neuralgia or something
more serious swiftly follows. Nervous
people are generally pale people. BY
supplying through the blood those vital
elements that the nerves need, DIR. Viii
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People have
performed those remarkable cures that
make 1t impossible for any ervou SUI
ferer TO neglect them.
A recent case is that of Mrs. Peter
Morrissette, of No. 315 Eleventh street,
Alpena, Mich, who writes as follows /:
"My trouble started with childbirth.
After one of my children was born / had
a kind of paralysis. l was very weak
and nv mouth was a little crooked. /
was always tired and was so nervous
hat l could not bear to hear a dog bark
or a bell ring-even the little bird i'll its
cage would annoy me. My heart hut-
tered a great deal and l had dizzy spells.
! was not able to be left alone.
my doctor gave me different kinds of
medicine, changing it several times.
When it was evident that he could not
help me he said he did not understand
my case. This was three years ago and
/ was very much discouraged, when my
brother, who had taken DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. recommended them to me. /
tried them and noticed q change for the
better when / was taking the second box.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cured me and l
have been well ever since. / now do all
my own homework, sewing aud wash
ing for seven of u.s."
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have also
cured diseases caused by impure or I'M
poverished blood such as rheumatism,
anemia and after-effects of the grip.
All druggists sell DIR. Williams Pink
Pills or the remedy will be mailed, post
paid, on receipt of price. 90 cents per
box, six boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Will

A MIRACLE OF AZURE
The Wonderful Growth of the Ant

The Wonderful Growth of the Ant

Wapiti antler growth is one Of the

antlers of the year before break off
aush with their base an inch OF more

found close together, showing that they
fell nearly at the same time.
At first the place of each antler is a
broad raw spot. In a few days it shows
a thick rounded pad or blood gorged
skin. This swells rapidly, and in a
fortnight the great Dubious fuzzy horn
beginning has shot up to a height of
several inches. At exactly the right

More Farms and Greater Crops.

More Farms and Greater Crops.
From 1890 to 1900 the number of
farms in the United States increased
from 4,564,641 TO 5,T39,657, and the
value of farms and farm property from
$16,OS2,2 67, 900 to S20,514,OO1, S3S.
The census Is taken every ten years.
From 1870 to 1880 the increase in
farms was 1,34S,992. totals being 1885,
9S5 and 40,00S,907, respectively. The
number of persons engaged in agricul-
ture on the 5,739,657 farms in 1900 is
given as ~10,43S,219. During the past
two or three years, and more especially
the past year.. a great expanse of new
farming land vas opened up in the
Northwest. so that by the time the next
census is taken it is expected the total
number of farms in the United States
will be close to 100000. With the
rapid increase In establishing new
farms and methods tending to more
intensive farming, and the production
of more grain and product from every
acre titled by scientific methods that
are now being taught and practiced, the
agricultural productions of this coun-
try should keep well apace with our
rapid increase In population. Intelli-
gent methods of using the lands are all
that are required to provide abundantly
for our own and many foreign consum-
erS.

moody temperament and grows into
the habit of brooding over the tolls

with this thought uppermost in his
mind, he returns from his daily work
at nighttime to greet his family with
a gloomy csuntenance and a fretful

toiled all the long summer day in the
heated atmosphere of closed rooms,
and with aching head and heart chilled

of her husband, also grows %fretful, and

ALL ABOUT ~sUccoTAsH.
Famous Dish that Has Been Enjoyed

for Centuries by Ann rfcans.
Succotash has always been in vogue
in New England since the p~uritans
learned the art OF mixing corn and
beans from the Indians nearly 800
years g Many dishes have been ill
vented since then, and most of them
have gone out Of business, bet the
popularity of succotash remains.
S~uccotash, next to Indian pudding,
is probably the oldest dish we of Con-
necticut have in our list Of eatables.
1t was in use among the Indians OF
Plymouth when the E~nglishmen land
ed, and they had probably eaten it for
hundreds of years before that time.
In this section it was also the prin-
cipal article of food for the Connect
cut Indians during the summer
months and fall, and is said 20 have
iod Of the Narragansett Indians Of
Rhode Island.
They called it "Msickquatash," and
from that word has come the word
%succotash. When the puritans landed
in New England they soon learned
how to prepare the food of corn
and beans from the aborigines, and
they liked the mixture.
An old lady of Plymouth, who has
made it for half a century, says the
Plymouth brand of s~uccotash has
corned beef, turnips and chicken in it.
The mystery of how to prepare this
mixture is said to be one Of the heir
looms passed down from generation
to generation. We Connecticut people
who are used to the plain corr and
beans, with a little pork, r slow TO
embrace the Massachusetts rendering
of the ~succotash recipe.
In the old taverns of our grand
fathers day ~succotash was frequently
served as the only dish at dinner.
In the year 1870. just after the main
road through Guilford had been made
a part o. the great stage route Ee-
tween Boston and New York, the Mar
quis de Lafayette entered the quiet
village on his way from New York to
Newport. He put up over night at
Squire Browns tavern, on the west
side of Guilford Green, OIL common,
where the national bank now stands.
Brown wanted to treat the famous
Frenchman as well as possible and
served him with succotash for supper.
The marquis ate heartily Of the dish,
complimented the squire on the per-
feet blend of the corn and beans, and
departed on his way to Newport.
Many years after, when the mar
quis met Charles Jared Ingersoll Of
New Haven, who was attached to the
French embassy, in Paris, he recalled
the supper of succotash he had in
Guilford at Squire Browns cavern.
The marquis again visited Guilford in
1924 and stopped at Miner Bradley's
tavern, but whether he had s~uccotash
or not isn't Observation-Disclosures
