RUN DOWN FROM GRIP
Or. Williams Pink Pills Have Cured
This Form OF Debility In
Hundreds of Cases.

"Four years ago., says Mrs. f. Nor
rison, of No. 1922 Carson street, South
Side, Pittsburg, Pa, 81 took cold
which turned into the grip. This trouble
left me all run down. was thin, had
backache much of the time. had no APP
petite, my stomach was out of order and
/ felt nervous and unstrung.
"While had the grip had doctor,
but really suffer ed more from the con-
dition in which the influenza left me
than l did from the disease itself. felt
generally wretched and miserable and
the least exposure to cold would make
me worse. I couldn't seem to get any
better until began to take DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. l very quickly noticed o
benefit after l began taking them and
they restored me to good health and
strength. DR. Williams Pink Pills are
a wonderfully good medicine. Thanks
to them l am now i'll fine health and
have had no return of my former trouble.
/ recommend the pills to everyone who
is ailing and take every opportunity to
let people know how good they are"
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 and
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 pa
ralysis, locomoUor ataxia and ST. Vitus'
dance, that have not yielded to ordinary
treatment. Their double action, on the
blood and on the nerves, makes them an
IDEAL tonic.
All druggists sell DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, or they will be sent by mail post
paid, on receipt of price, so cents per
boz, six boxes for 50 so, by the DIR. Will
Dams Medicine Co., Schenectady. NY.

Epitomized.

In infancy the milk we drink
Must thoroughly be pasteurized;
And if from food we seem co shrink
Our fare must then be peptonized.
AS lads our young and tender brains
Must properly be Froebelized;
Then in our studies we show gains
If by due methods galvanized
In business we may succeed,
And then our line is Morganized
Whereat the chances are indeed,
That we will soon be Steffenized.
At this stage we must take risk;
We may full soon be Tarbellized,
Or through exposures blunt and brisk
Be quite completely Lawsonized.
Last stage of all, when we grow old,
Our foibles cannot be disguised.
And almost every day we're told
That now we must be Oslerized.

In the mad whirl of business, peo-
pie rarely pause long enough to
consider the little things of life and
how closely they are identified with
the greater ones-how inseparable, in
fact they are, from and how essen
tial to them Take for instance the
shoe business-did ever anyone pom
der long enough to realize the wealth
of actual energy and animal life ex-
pended in the production of foot
wear for the human race.
AS an example, take the Mayer
Boot C Shoe Company, Milwaukee
concern that in its three hundred
working days has consumed no less
than 415,612 hides of all kinds dur
ing the past twelve months.
Here then we have the hides of
60,29S Steers, 31,163 Cows, 55,7O4
Calves, 196,846 Goats, 1889 sheep,
1923 Horses and 1,479 Kangaroos,
all consumed and distributed by the
great Mayer factory within the
period Of a year. Stand these ami
mails in straight line and they
would cover a distance of 351 miles,
nearly one sixtieth of the earth S
circumference. To bring this live
stock to its final point of destination,
required no less than 5000 26 foot
cars, which strung together would
cover over Is miles of railroad track.
1t takes the hides of nearly 1900
animals daily to supply the demands
of this monster shoe enterprise and
were all of them spread out at one
time, it would require an area of over
100000 square feet to accommodate
them.
Nearly 1000 skilled artisans are
employed by the Mayer Company the
year round making the Honorbilt
shoe for men, Western Lady for WON
en-, and the celebrated Martha Wash
ington comfort shoes; also school
shoes that wear like iron and work
shoes for all classes and purposes
The total capacity of the Mayer fac.
tory is 5000 pairs of shoes a day
The equipment of this factory is as
thoroughly modern and up-to-date as
money and experience can make it
Another decidedly favorable feature
Is that of location, which is in the
greatest leather market in the
world, thus enabling the company
to secure first-choice on products
consumed. The uniformly excellent
quality Of all shoes turned out by the
Mayer factory is largely attributed
to this fact.

EGGS ARE SKYWARD
Fresh candled Retailing at IS Cents,
and May Go Higher-BeIieved That
Packers, in Order to Force April
Eggs, Are Holding Fresh Up.

Fresh eggs are skyward. Today
fresh candled are retailing at rs cents,
sln advance of 2 cents over week ago.
They may go higher. and undoubtedly
will unless the packers are able to I'M
load their April eggs, which are now
being moved. 1t is the opinion of
retailers that the packers are respon-
sible for the high prices. to a degree at
least. This is the melting season, how
ever and hens have not yet got down
to business. 1t is little too early for
the average pullet to begin laying,
and naturally there is shortage.
The packers, however. are anxious
to keep the prices up because of their
storage eggs, and it is not believed
that eggs will be easier until the April
supply is exhausted. Big dealers In
Chicago have lost heavily during the
past few months, owing to the con-
domination proceedings against meats,
frozen fish and eggs. Eggs that had
always been sold to bakers for cake
and pastry uses We're condemned and
confiscated. This made a shortage In
storage eggs, and will give. the pack
ers chance to unload their April
holdings.
