In the mills she was suddenly seized
with dizziness and great weakness. IT
was so weak Mt times" shc says, "that
l could hardly stand, and my head he.
came so dizzy that It seemed as IL the
door was moving around.
"My condition Mt last became so bad
that l was obliged to give up work in the
mill, and later still ! became SO feebly
that l could not ven attend to me
household duties. After the slightest
s~xertion I had to lie down and rest until
[ regained strength.
"a friend who had used DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People urged mo to
try them. l bought o box and began to
.ake them. Tho benefit was SO positive
and so quickly evident that I continued
70 use the pills until I had taken alto
sether six boxes. BY that time I was
entirely cured, and for two years I have
had no return OF my trouble. I am now
n the best Of health and able to attend
TO NIL my duties. lam glad to acknowl.
sdge the benefit I received and I hope
that my statement may be the means Of
inducing others who may suffer in this
way to try this wonderful medicine"
Tho secret of tho power Of DR.. Will.

that they make new blood, and every or.

Naturally I have since used Postum

where tea causes nervousness.
II find trouble In getting servants to

Rockefeller Has Been Doing Bust

New York, Feb. 22.--Jo ohm ID. Rookie
Teller has been found at last.
He was discovered right here in New
York city transacting business in his Of
fee at 26 Broadway. II
His appearance yesterday at the Of
fee of the Standard Oil company puts
an end to the game of hide-and-seek,
which for more than eight weeks has
kept the public guessing, cable, tele-
graph and telephone wires sizzling, his
family and office assistants busy side
tracking inquisitive questioners, and
subpoena servers jumping from place to
place wherever rumor had him.
It has now become positively known
that the richest man in the world has
been attending to his business, either in
person at his office, or debating matters
over the telephone to office assistants,
during much of the time that he has
been reported in remote sections of the
globe.
5 Persons who have daily come in con-
tact with Mr.. Rockefeller say he has
reports Of his presence thousands Of
miles away from here, and that he has
gathered more enjoyment from the af-
fair than from any golf game he ever
played;
Teller treats his /" disappearing act
hippantly, even frivolously, it is also
known that Missouri 8 attorney gen,
eral does not SO regard it.
Mr.. Hadley has spent much time and
money trying to find him to question
him with reference to the alleged
monopolistic methods Of the STANDARD
Oil company, and it is ell-established
fact that ever since the oil king first
became mysterious in his going and
coming, there has been, an army OF

PURE FOOD BILL
=. PASSES SENATE
Hepburn Measure Goes Thru
After Fight of Many 4
t.. Years. .,-

Washington, Feb. 22.-Only four sen
ators had the courage to vote against
the pure food bill. The others bowed
to the demand for such bill and auto
matically voted for the measure. {, i.
The Hepburn bill passed the senate
late yesterday by vote Of 90 to 4.
The senators voting against it were
Bailey, Bacon. Foster and eTillman. All
these are democrats, Senators Teller
and FraNeru also democrats, said that
if they were not barred their votes
would have been Z; recorded ed IN the mega
tive. Senators Platt and eDepew were
both present and voted for the bill.
Contrary to general expectation, the
s@teeth' were not drawn from the bill
and it passed without substantial
change or modification. It is regarded
as fairly comprehensive measure
Before final vote was reached Sen
ator Bailey made a strong argument
against the proposed legislation. He de-
clared that it was unconstitutional and
should not be considered otherwise than
as an attempt by the general govern
ment to exercise supervision over the
| police powers of the several states,
| which is clearly unconstitutional He
| said the matter of shipping adulterated
| food products from one state to another
was subject to the control of congress
as being interstate commerce., but the
sale of such articles within state was
something over which the federal gov
eminent could have no control. Neither
congress nor the government, ne SAID,
could legislate to protect the health or
morals Of the people within a sovereign
state. - -. 49,. III.
The bill makes it a misdemeanor to
manufacture or sell adulterated or mis-
branded foods, drugs, medicines, OF
liquors in the District Of Columbia, the
territories and the insular possessions
of the United States, and prohibits
the shipment of such goods from one
state to another or to foreign. coun

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient dls-
infectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take oft the better; it is not
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
The stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the. breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves thet complexion, it Whitens the
teeth and further acts Us a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; 1T
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh. as
!; All druggists sell charcoal. in one form
or another, but probably the best char
coal and the most for the money is in
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they. are
composed of the finest powdered Willow
charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics
in tablet form, or rather in the form of
large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the
charcoal being mixed with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges wall
soon tell in much improved condition
of the general health, better complexion
swceter breath and purer blood, and the
beauty Of it is that no possible harm
can result from their continued use, but
on the contrary, great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking Of
the benefits of charcoal says: l ad
wise Stuart s Charcoal Lozenges to al
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex

throat; I also believe the liver is great,
