ST. VITUS DANCE
CHILD OF TEN CURED BY DIR. WILL
 LIAMS' PINK PILLS.
ATrs. Ream's Daughter BeRan to Gain Flesh at Once and is Now
 Well and Happy.

Children are doubtless punished many times at school for not keeping still or for dropping things when the trouble Is really chorea. or St Situs' common Is this nervous disease in childhood that in some schools one fifth of all the pupils have been found suffering from 1t in one form or an- other.
 Before the presence of the disease is betrayed there is usually disturb ance of the general health. The child shows listlessness and inattention. TheE 1t becomes restless and twitch- ing of the muscles. and jerking of the limbs and body follow.
 Often the patient loses flesh and becomes pale and bloodless. A remedy 4hat cures St. vitus' Dance, and cures disease remains, is Dr. Williams Pink Pills.
 A recent cure Is that of Georgia the 10-yaar-old daughter of Mrs. D. M Ream. of Conemaugh, Pa. Mrs. Ream says;
 i.when Georgia started to school last year she had. stomach trouble and af tcrward her mouth began to twitch. She would shake all over and could not be still. After a few months her mind became affected.
 ~She was under the care of two doc Ecrs for almost four months. When she had been sick for about seven months we heard of a case like Geor- gfass that had been cured by Dr. Will hams Pink Pills It was in the latter part of February that she commenced to take the pills and they made the greatest change in her. They not only cured every trace of the St Vitus' Dance but helped her in every way She never was very stout until after she took the pills. but now she has gained in weight. She goes to school every day and is we'll and happy. Dr Williams' Pink Pills are worth their weight in gold'
 pr. Williams Pink Pills build up the blood to carry health and strength 10 every part of the body. They have cured the worst case of bloodless- ness indigestion, influenza, headaches, auubago, sciatica, nueralgia. nervous ness. spinal weakness and the special ailments of girls and women whose blood supply becomes weak, scanty or Irregular. They are sold by all drug xists or will be sent by mail. postpaid, or receipt of price, 50 cents, per box, six boxes for $2.50, by the pr. Williams Medicine Company, Schen ectady, N Y.

Within the next six months the Citi- 1 gems Light, Heat and Power Company contemplates doubling the capacity of It's plant at an outlay of about $50,00o, and extending its lighting wires into the residence district of the city.

 J. M. Chumley. chief engineer of the Citizens Company, is now visiting plants in Georgia and the Carolinas in- vestigating as to the adyisability of operating the new 500 KilIowatt alter nator by means of a steam turbine. He will return to Montgomery, in a few days and will report whether it would be .better to use the turbine for the new machinery or install another Cor Iiss engine. When his recommendation is made, the company will order the necessary machinery which will be se- cured as quickly as possible
 We are not in the habit of announc- ing things before they have been posi- lively determined upon" said Manager F. R. Waiting last night, i've always like to have our stun ordered and then do the talking. I will say. however. that our present plant is loaded down and we have seen the necessity of in-
 
 two aIternators, one of a $50 Kilowatt capacity and another of 105 Kilowatts also a capacity of 175 Kilowatts direct l current It is certain that we are go- ing to get 500 Kilowatt alternator, but the order is waiting now only on the determination of Mir. Chumley who Is Investigating the advantages of the steam turbine over the Corliss engine. By the time our macinery arrives, which will be five or six months. we expect to have our wires extended into the residence districts. I suppose we now average six calls day from peo- pie who want to have us install elec- tric lights in their residences. but we have to refuse them. We now have all the business we can handle. The new machinery will cost between s40.000 and $50, ,oo0."
 The Citizens Light. Heat and Power Company was organized about two years ago and the operation of its plant just north of the Union Railway Sta tion. near the banks of the Alabama River, was begun on June 1, 1904
 The citizens interested in the enter prise say that it has succeeded far above their expectations.
