After using them for short while longer I was thoroughly con vinced of their helpfulness I ceased to be an invalid. became and have since remained we'll woman, and the reason why is simply that I took Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

MORE THAN HUNDRED
MAX HAMBURGER's MAJORITY FOR
 STATE SENATOR.
The Successful Candidate Issues Card of Thanks to His Friends-Lyons, Hoffman and Damer Chosen
 Representative.
Advertiser Bureau,

Advertiser Bureau. Mobile. April 12. President George J. Sullivan of the Mobile County Democratic Executive Committee, has received every box from the city and county voting places and Saturday at noon the committee will meet. open them and. after a careful compilation of the results, de- clare the nominees. As to the Sena- torship the majority for Max Ham burger, Jr., will be more than 100. Frank Cazslas will be the Sheriff and
 President Sullivan said the Legislators will be A s Lyons. F. o. Hoffman and , Eyre Damer. The margin for the lat ter he said. would be very small, but sufficient to land hin. m the third place.
 The amount of money used in the shrievalty contest, 1t is said. was some- thing startling. One surprise was the sioner by Hon. John n. Hagan. MT. Hamburger has issued the fol-
 lowing card of thanks:
 ITO My Friends:
 From heart that has never learn ed the alphabet of forgetfulness. I de- sire to express my profound gratitude to the host of loyal friends for their kindness in the memorable campaign which has just ended.
 The people of Mobile County have invariably been so generous with their goodness to me that am now, often in the past, unable to find words to convey my sincere appreciation. To be elected to the highest office of honor within the gift of the most historic county of the best State of the Union is sufficient to give any county boy an enlargement of the head.
 And when that tribute is given to him over a wealthy. influential citizen. whose personal honor and integrity Is unassailed and unassailable, the afore- said country boy feels inspired to so conduct himself as to reflect credit up- on his people and honor upon the county.
 Certainly. he will quit melting riots in Russia and doing things of that sort.
 ''It is distinct pleasure to state that so far as I know, Mir. Walsh did not say or do anything that was unbe- coming a gentleman. My own course was to say and do openly whatever deemed proper to accomplish success. My paper was offered to my opponent without cost to answer my writings: I invitd him to be present everywhere to hear my public remarks.
 ITO the misguided friends on the other side. I extend feelings of distin- guished consideration and with it the assurance that no Mobilian enjoys red-hot fight more than myself. Never in the widest flights of my imagination have I thought that in ability I could measure up to the high standard of Goldsby. Lyons. Smith. Brooke and other gallant and gifted Mobilans who have graced the Senate Chamber of Alabama. The best I hope to do is by fidelity to duty and loyalty to Mobile County to merit the esteem so generously bestowed upon me by the people.
 'T hope that every voter in the coun- ty who favored me in the campaign will give me an opportunity to say per- sonally, thank you Max Hamburger, Jr.'
