TONIC TREATMENT
Weak Stomach and Sick Headache Cured by Or. Williams
 Pink Pills

The symptoms of stomach trouble vary. Some victims have q ravenous appetite, others loathe the sight of food. Often there is feeling as of weight on the chest, a full feeling i'll the throat. Sometimes the gas presses on the heart and leads the sufferer to think he has heart disease. Sick headache is a ire. quent and distressing symptom.
 A weak stomach needs a digestive tonic and that there is no better tonic for this purpose than Dr. Williams Pink Pills is shown by the statement of Mir. A. Q. Merrill, a mining man, of Oneals, Calif., 8 veteran of Battalion 0, Third U. 5. Regular Infantry.
 l had never been we'll since left the arely, he says, always having had trouble with. ny stopach, which was weak. was ruif dowhSand facilitated. Could keep nothing -on my stomach, and at times had sick headache so bad that l did not care whether I lived or died. My stomach refused to retain even liquid food and l almost despaired of getting well as had tried so many kinds of medicine without relief Then was bitten by rattlesnake and that laid me up from work entirely for a year, six months of which I spent ill bed.
 "One day friend recommended Dr. Williams Pink Pills to me and began taking them. They cured me when all other medicine had failed. I have recommended the pills to a great many, for during my recovery every one asked me what was helping me so and I told them Dr. Williams Pink Pills. I can- not speak too highly of them.''
 If you want good health you must have good blood. Dr. Williams Pink Pills actually make new blood and restore shattered nerves. They are sold by all druggists or sent, postpaid, on re- ceipt of price, soc. per box, six boxes for $2.50 by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, NY.

The entire right side of his head was crushed and beside the body was an iron bar with which the killing had been done There was a pool of blood on the car floor near the door and then streak of blood to the spot where the body lay in the end of the car The supposition is that the man was killed while near the door and the body dragged out of sight. Three handkerchiefs, one soaked with blood, another soaked with blood and water and another wet with water, were found near the body, indicating that an attempt had been made to wash the blood from the wound The location of the wound indicates that the fatal blow was struck while the man was asleep.
