As TRUE As GOSPEL.

", c. Lykins of Miami, speaking
f matters and things, says among
other things something that is a.
true ae gospel. We have known for
a long time that other people are
watching Baxter Springs, aud we
have also known that outsiders
have wondered and marveled OF
the lack of enterprise shown by
the people of Baxter Springs who
are able to get to work and make a
mighty good town out of Baxter.
Mr.. Lykins' article appeared in the
Miami Republican Of last Saturday
and the following is an extract
from il:
II haven't an unkind word TO say
about Baxter Springs or it's inter
este. do cay il certainly needs q
booster. Chas. Smith of the Baxter

FACTS GUARANTEED
Neuralgia and Ansemia are Cured by
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

For nearly a generation the people OF
this country have known DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, during which time proof OF
thousands of cures by this remedy has
been published and confirmed and not
one person has been harmed i'll the slight.
est degree by their use. The pills con.
tain no opiate, narcotic or stimulant,
nor any drug which could injure the
most delicate constitution.
"For over year, says Miss Charlotte

of the heart. My skin was pale and sal,
low and | was troubled with dizziness,
fainting spells and fits of indigestion. ]
was very nervous and would start at the
slightest sound. At times great weak.
hess would come over me and on one oc,
casion my limbs gave way under me and
fell to the sidewalk.
"Of course was treated by our local
physicians and also consulted IL noted
doctor at Albany, but nothing they gave
me seemed to benefit me. One day
read i'll q newspaper about DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and | imme.
diately gave them trial. | soon felt
much better and my color had begun to
return. Icontinued using the pills and
by the time had taken eight boxes |
was entirely cured.
"My sister, Sarah Van Salisbury, suf.
fered terribly from anamia. She was
pale and thin and we feared that she
would become a victim of consumption.
She tried Dr. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and i'll a short time she be.
gan to gain i'll strength and weight.
She is now strong and well and we both
heartily recommend DR.. Williams Pink
Pills to all who are in i'll health. ?"

error to think that the first teeth dc
not count for much. Not only present,
beauty, but future health should be
