HOW DEBILITY SHOWS
And Why Or. Williams Pink Pills
Are q Specific for Dangerous
Physical Declines.

The symptoms of general debility vary
according to the cause but weakness is
always present, a tendency to perspire
and fatigue easily, ringing in the ears,
sometimes black spots passing before
the eyes, weak back, vertigo, wakeful-
ness caused by inability to stop thinking,
and unrefreshing sleep. The cause of
the trouble may be some drain on the
system or it may be mental or physical
overwork, sometimes insufficient nutri-
ton due to digestive disturbance. In
the latter case there is generally loss of
appetite and coated tongue as well as
general languor and debility.
Miss lula M. Metzger, stenographer,
living at II Mill street, Watertown, N. Y,
suffered for over year from general
debility. 1T was caused by overstudy," "
she says, land had no ambition, didn't
want to go anywhere. my food didn't
taste good, was run down, lifeless and
listless. took medicines but they failed
to help me. Finally friends recon-
mended DIR. Williams Pink Pills to my
mother and she got some for me. l took
them for some time and was entirely
cured and have had no return of the
trouble"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cure debility
because they actually make new, red,
rich blood, and as the blood carries
nourishment to all the organs and tissues
of the body, nerves as well as muscles,
the new blood stimulates the organs TO
do the work that nature expects of them
and normal health follows. Not only
is this treatment sufficient to cure de-
bility but many severe nervous disorders
as well.
The pills are sold By all druggists, or
will be sent postpaid, on receipt of price.

White Metal-TotaI Coinage

Sum Of $2oO,ooo,oo

Salt Lake City-"Eyery mint in the
United States with the exception of a
portion of the Philadelphia mint, is
coming silver half dollars, quarters
and dimes at present and this will
continue for at least three months
more" said George e. Roberts, direc.
tor OF United States minis, in an in.
terview here.
There is an unprecedented demand
for silver money of these denomina.
tons throughout the country at pres
ent that the government cannot begin
to cope with.
Silver is high and is going to go
higher" declared Mr.. Roberts. ut
will reach 80 before it stops and be-
lieve that within two years it will go
to 76. 1t is II and a little more at
present. A part of the mint at Phla-
delphia is working with copper and
nickel at present, but outside this
every mint in the country is working
night and day on silver half dollars,
quarters and dimes. No gold is being
coined at present and none will be for
three months. The total coinage for
the year will run very high, possibly
over $200000,0 1000"
Asked why paper money of 81 and
81 bill denominations are not more
generally circulated in the west, Mr.
Roberts said:
The principal reason is that west
ern bankers and others sending east
for money, If they ask for paper
money, must pay the express charges
on It, If they order silver the govern
ment pays the charges. This is the
secret of the immense circulation Of
silver in your own state and Other
