down an inclined plane from the top
of the tent, narrowly escaped death at
a performance of a circus. AS it was,
he received injuries which will prevent
him doing his stunt for some time to
come. The accident resulted from the
miscalculation on the part of the per-
former of the speed at which the wheel
was going, and he failed to jump high
enough at the end of the runway to
catch the net and fell on the machine,
which was III lower net. He received

ct abused my stomach, my blood got
out of order and then my face broke out
with pilnples and boils, " says T. K. Rob-
ertson, of 1877 Addison street, Washing
ton, Pa. "This was over two years ago.
MY stomach was in bad shape. After
eating I would have to rest awhile or /
would suffer the most severe pains in
my stomach. On arising would often
be so dizzy that could hardly stand up.
The slightest exertion would start my
back aching so that often had to sit
down and rest awhile. AT times ex-
fperienced pain around the heart which
alarmed me but which I suppose came
from my stomach trouble.
"I began to break out on the face with
pimples and later with boils which con-
fined me to the house week or more at
a time. One day saw DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People advertised in a
pamphlet which was left at the door and
/ thought I would give them trial. I
took several boxes of the pills before all
the pimples and boils left me, but l am
now glad to say that my blood is good.
I do not have any eruptions and l no
longer have the head and stomach
troubles have described. / am very
grateful for what DIR. Williams Pink Pills
have done for me and I have recon-
mended them and always will advise
those who are suffering from bad blood
or stomach trouble to try them"
Ifyou want good health you must have
good blood. BAD blood is the root OF most
common diseases like an@mia, rheuma-
tism, sciatica, neuralgia, st. Vitus' dance,
nervousness, indigestion, debility, par
tial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.

ton for congress in the Tenth dis
trict, was one of the principal COM
plainants. After considerable argu-
ment the hearing was continued for a
week. The commission is making an
independent investigation into rates
on grain and sweeping reductions may
be ordered. Joseph Liberty, OF Stet-
sonville, Taylor county, asked that
the commission order the Wisconsin
Central to stop one of it's through
trains each way at his village. The
Island Paper company, of Menasha,
asked for lower rates on pulp wood.
A. H. Krouskop, of Richland Center,
who wants lower rates on lumber,
and the Merrimac Brick company,
ported to the commission that they
were negotiating with the roads at
fected and the prospects were that
a satisfactory agreement would be
reached. The Chicago & Northwest
ern was represented by Attorney A. s.
