DR. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs.
Morrison because they actually make
good, red blood. When the blood is red
and healthy there can be no debility.
The relation between the blood aud
nervous system is such that the pills
have a very decided action upon the
nerves and they have cured many severe
nervous disorders, such as partial ma.
ralysis, locomotor ataxia and St. Vitus'
dance, that have not yielded to ordinary
treatment. Their double action, on the
blood aud on the nerves, makes them an
ideal tonic.

MIerobe Of Gray Hair.

They have discovered a new mic.

1t Is called the chromophage, It's spe-

gray at a comparatively early age The
handsome actor who has those white
hairs on his temple that the women
admire so is full OF the chromophages.
Baldheat!ed men are immune from the

and man without hair need not wor.

1t was thought that a process OF the

1t is the chromophage, The microbe
does not like heat and for that reason

for cleaning fabrics without injuring

1t is also particularly good in cleaning
rugs and carpets. Crate two raw pota.
toes In bowl which contains q pint
Of clear, cold water Now strain
through sieve, allowing the liquid to
fall into another bowl containing an.
other pint of cold water. When 1t
settles, pour on the water into a hot.
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.

When ivory knife handles get discol.
ored dip halt lemon in salt and rub
on them. Wash off Immediately In
warm water, and the handles will look
as white as when new.
