Get RID OF THE GAS
Or. Williams Pink Pills Strensthea
the Stomach and Enable Il to
Do Its Work.

When the stomach Is feeble the food
lies in it undigested, decays and throws
of poisonous gases that distend the
walls of the stomach and cause inter.
ference with other organs, especially
with the action Of the heart and lungs.
These gases have other i'll effects. The
nerves and the brain are disturbed
and discomforts such rs dizziness, hot
flashes, sleeplessness, irritableness and
dependency originate from this source.
Experience shows that these troubles
vanish Just as soon as the stomach is
made strong enough to digest the food.
In other words, it needs tcnic that will
rouse it to do the work of changing the
food into nourishment.
Miss Minerva @. Ladd, of Ipswich,
Mass, says: 81 had weak stomach
from the time / was Sttle child.
Whenever 1 took hearty foed it would
cause terrible faintness, and / would
times there would be the most intense
pains through the upper part of my
body. For days in succession, would
have to lie down most of the time.
The distress was often so great that
could hardly bear it, and the frequent
and violent belching spells were very
disagreeable, too.
"My DOCTORS medicines gave me little
relief and it was not until I tried DR..
Williams Pink Pills that found a cure.
Within three weeks decided improve
ment was noticeable. The belching
spells were less frequent, the pains
through my body We're not so intense,
my food was retained and after taking
the pills for few weeks longer found
that I was altogether free from the
miseries had so long suffered"

ST. PAUL IN BACKWOODS.
Clergyman Makes a Hit with Ora
ton Supposed to Be
Original.

The other day clergyman suddenly
was called upon to go to backwoods
district in a neighboring state to read
the funeral service over the body OF
friend who had died while on a
visit to the farm which he had left
many years ago as small boy. IL
was a wild region. Within miles OF
the abandoned farm there was no
church, and only one small red
schoolhouse," where there was teach
ing for three months in the winter.
It was a primitive community and
the people came to the funeral over
roads unmended and leading through
woods which had grown up in what
were once cultivated fields. All the
best blood of the region had been
drawn away in to the cities. The peo-
pie who remained were the survival
of the unfittest," says the New York
Press.
In his hurry to catch the train which
should take him to the nearest rail-
road station the clergyman caught up
his hymnal instead of the prayerbook,
and when he came to conduct the
funeral service found that he must go
over the Episcopal burial service from
memory as best he could. SO without
a book. he repeated from memory the
beautiful words of that service, the
whole thing having to the eyes OF the
assembled farmers the appearance OF
an extemporaneous effort on the par
sons part. Now, the lesson always
read at such services is that magnifl-
cent essay on death by st. Paul
First Corinthians, 15:2O-begirping,
s.Now is Christ risen from the dead
and become the first fruits of them
that slept" 1t is the longest single
part of the service, and the congrega-
ton listened breathlessly to it. AT.
ter the funeral delegation OF farm
ers and their wives came to the clergy
man, and the spokesman said:
THAT was the best funeral sermon
we ever heard. We want to thank you
for it."
They thought It original.
EYES," replied the astonished clergy
man; "it has been preached before and
has always been considered rather
good. / am glad you liked It."
Now he is sending Bibles out into
this "heathen town" and collecting
money for missionary work there. "a
people so appreciative Of the words
of st. Paul." says the clergyman,

chance 70 read them and hear them"
