One of the greatest business successes
of the year has just been achieved by
the United Drug Company in the open
ing of it's new laboratories in Boston,
The United Drug Company is CO opera
tive company owned by 200 Of the lead
ing druggists of the United States.
Eight hundred of them were in conven-
ton at Boston in September, at which
time they formally opened the new plant
where the Rexall Remedies are made.
This building is 37lft long, six stories
high. and contains 10000 so. #. of
manufacturing floor space. which is
filed to OVERLOOKING.
The company was organized and
started in business on the 14th Of March
1908, showing that it is not yet four

years old. That this company has
grownlfrom thirty.employes at the time
it started to its present number of 600,
goes to prove that the Company's claim
that cooperation, properly handled and
backed by good friends, will produce the
most rapid success of any other system
that could be employed in getting bust
ness.
The United Drug Company has been
a constant advertiser in more ways than
one. 1t is generally conceded that they
are the largest users of newspaper space
in the United States, and in addition to
that they have annually held conven-
ton Of their stockholders, bringing them
to Boston and entertaining them and
their wives two or three days.

INSOMNIA CURED.
REsTFUL SLEEP SECURED By DIR.
WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
Nerves Wrecked by Apoplexy Restored
TO Normal Condition and Good
Health Followed.

The sufferer from sleeplessness too
often resorts to habit-forming drugs IN
order to obtain the coveted rest. But
sleep obtained by the use of opiates is
not refreshing and the beneht is but
temporary at best. To obtain sleep
that renews the mental and physical
vigor, clears the brain and fits the body
for the work of the day, the nerves
must be in normal condition. Healthy
nerves are not to be obtained by drug
ging them but by toning up the nerv-
Gus system. The best nerve tonic and
therefore the safest remedy for m
somnia is DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. H. A. Fletcher Of So Blodget
street, Manchester. n. H, is living evil
dence of the truth of this statement.
She says: 4 received shock OF an
apOpleptic character. 1t was SO severe
that the sight of my right eye was af-
fected, causing me to see objects
double. I was confined to my bed
about four weeks, at one time being
told by the doctor that could not get
well. When / could leave my bed l
was in such nervous state that /
could not sleep at night. 1 would gel
up and sit on a chair until completely
tired out and then go back to bed ana
sleep from exhaustion.
Il had been under the doctors care
for six weeks when my sister, Mrs.
Loveland of Everett, persuaded me TO
try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. 1 beagn taking the pills with
the result that I soon experienced re-
lief. One night soon after taking them
l lay awake only a short time and the
next night rested we'll. From that
time 7 slept well every night and soon
got well and strong. I have recon-
meuded Pink Pills for Pale People a
number of times, and my niece has
taken them for weak nerves and poor
blood and found them very beneficial"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are not a
cure-all, but a blood builder They do
one thing and they do it well-they ac-
tually make new blood. They cure
nervous. disorders because the condl-
ton of the nerves depends upon the
number of red corpuscles in the blood,
and DR.. Williams Pink Pills increase
the number of these red corpuscles-
BY this action on the nerves, through
the blood they have cured many severe
nervous troubles, headache, neuralgia
and sciatica as well as diseases of the
blood such as anaemia, rheumatism,
pale and sallow compilations and many
forms Of weakness. All druggists sell

vey Cheney and Robert Cheney, whose

is directed against Harvey K. Flagler,
who is named as president of the com
pany; Willis P. Dickinson, treasurer;
f. H. Head, w. r. Dickinson, officials.

that Mr.. Flagler is not a resident of
the city, but was known in Boston five
years ago as a promoter; that We r.
Dickinson severed his connection with
the company. more than a year ago and
is now of the belief that Franklin H.
Head is president of the company
that Mr.. Head is in New York on busl-
ness, and that Mr.. Helmer is a mem
Der of a Chicago law firm.
According to the bill the Flagfer
company was Incorporated in 1904.
with a capital stock of $4,000. It was
to buy, sell, bond, lease and operate
certain mining properties. and it is
charged that the defendants, by the
use of this alleged company, conspired

wHAT 81 MAIL BoxEs2
Judge Pollock Wm Decide II It Is a
Crime to Rob One.

A demurrer was filed in the United
States circuit court yesterday afternoon
by R. H. Towne. attorney for 6. B.
hopton of Osborne, Kansas, who IS IN
United States mail belonging to another
and secondly for forgery. An 1nd1et-
ment was returned against Hopton and
he has been in prison for the last four
months; the demurrer was entered
against the Indictment.
Hopton is under charge of having
taken a letter containing a check from
the rural mail box of Rev c. H HART
man in Osborne county. The letter was
addressed to Hartman but It is claimed
Hopton opened It and taking the check
forged Hartman's name and got the
money, a small amount. slightly in ex-
cess of $12
The claim is set up by. Hopton's attor-
ney that his client cannot be indicted
for taking the letter from the rural
mail box on the ground that rural mail
boxes have never been approved by the
postmaster general. The postmaster
general has approved about 25O different
makes of mail boxes which patrons Of
rural free delivery are required to OBJ
serve, but 1t is claimed there is no rec
ord that the postmaster general reported
on suitable box and returned his re-
port to congress. If the decision should
be favorable to Hopton and the demur-
rer sustained it would mean that rural
mail boxes could be robbed with i'm
punity until such time as congress
might pass an authorization act.
It is stated that this is the first time
that the status of the rural mail box
has come up in this manner; that it
does not have the same status as the
mail boxes in a city or in postoffice.
HOpton first agreed to plead guilty but
afterwards reconsidered it. tt is prob
able that the charge of forgery can be
made to stick.
