ENGINEERS AND POLITICIANS.

A citizen Of Memphis who wanted a
drink went into a saloon IN the vicin-
.ty Of the meeting place OF the Brother
hood Of Engineers day before yester-
day. rather expecting TO find a good
many OF the engineers therein. To his
surprise he was the only seeker for a
thirst eXterminator among those pres
ent. The saloon was deserted. Think
ing that perhaps the men Of the throt-
tie had found more cOngenial rendez-
vOuS, he as IA matter OF curiosity, Wis
tied all the other saloons IN the vicin-
ity, and he found IN none or them any
evidence whatever that there was a
single engineer in Memphis.
Nothing. perhaps. could throw a
brighter light on the character of the
engineers OF the United States than
this incident If a like number Of poll
ticians had assembled in Memphis TO
attend a cOuV milton all the saloons
Of this city would be holding overflow

NERVOUS DEBILITY
A Scranton Woman Tells How o..
Williams Pink Pills Made Her
We'll and Strong.

Nervous debility is the common name
for what the doctors term neurasthenla.
1t is characterized by mental depression,
fits Of the "blues," or melancholy, loss
of energy aud spirits The patient S eyes
become duh, the pink fades from the
cheeks, the memory becomes defective SO
that it is difficult to recall dates and
names at will. Some of these symptoms
only may be present or all of them, The
remedy lies i'll toning up the nervous
system and there is no medicine better
adapted for this purpose than DR..
Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. Jane j. Davies, of No. 3l4 War
rem street, Scranton, Pa, says: "Some
years ago l became greatly reduced in
health and strength and my nervous
system became so debilitated that felt
wretched. could not rest or sleep well
at night and woke up as weary and
Ianguld i'll the morning as was when
went to bed. My head ached in the
morning and often there was pain in
my right side which was worse when /
sat down. My nerves were on edge all
the time, every little noise bothered me
and was generally miserable. Then I
decided to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People as my husband had taken
them with good results, and they did
wonders for me. Now l have no more
pain Ill my side, no more headaches, I
sleep well and feel strong and able to
do my work"
DR., Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs.
Davies and they can do just as much
for other weak, pale, alllng men or
women who are slipping into hopeless
decline. They strike straight at the root
of all common diseases caused by poor
and impoverished blood.
DR., Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box, six
boxes for So so, by the DR.. Williams

BOB CASES TRIUMPH.
Story Of a Crippe's Dream That
Came True.

Baseball was in the air. And no
wonder, for it was the afternoon of
the great game between the Easts and
the Vests, rival teams who for gen
erations Of Hillsdale boys had battled
hard against each other. A lowlying
common short distance from the
town had always been the field OF
action.
Bobby Case, cripple, was the first
boy on the diamond. He walked from
base to base and lovingly touched
them with his foot. He was discour-
aged. Gee, | wish | could play just
once. It's such bully day, too he
said. He then looked across the field
Not a boy was in sight, and he gave
sigh of relief. How ashamed he
would have been to have let the fell
lows know he had come early just to
touch the bases. Bobby had never
expressed wish to tho boys that he
wanted to play ball, or e,vn dreamed
of doing so.
Presently the noisy whistling and
calling announced the Easts and
