HOW DEBILITY SHOWS
And Why Or. Williams Pink Pills
Are a Specific for Dangerous
Physical Declines.

The symptoms Of general debility vary
according to the cause but weakness is
always present, tendency to perspire
and fatigue easily, ringing in the ears,
sometimes black spots passing before
the eyes, weak back, vertigo, wakefnl-
ness caused by inability TIC stop thinking,
and unrefreshing sleep. The cause OF
the trouble may be some drain on the
system or il may be mental or physical
overworlx, sometimes insufficient nutrl-
ton due to digestive disturbance. In
the latter case there is generally loss of
appetite and coated tongue as well as
general languor and debility.
Miss Lula M. Metzger, a stenographer,
living at II Mill street, Watertown, N. Y,
suffered for over year from general
debility. cit was caused by overstudy,"
she says, "and had no ambitidu, didn't
want to go anywhere, my food didn't
taste good, was run down, lifeless and
listless. / took medicines but they failed
to help me. Finally friends recon-
mended DIR. Williams Pink Pills to my
mother and she got some for me. took
them for some time and was entirely
cured and have had no return OF the
trouble"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cure debility
because they actually make new, red,
rich blood, and as the blood carries
nourishment to all the organs and tissues
Of the body, nerves as well as muscles.
the new blood stimulates the organs to
do the work that nature expects OF them
and normal health follows. Not only
is this treatment sufficient to cure de-
bility but many severe nervous disorders
as well.

Will Madame Merri please give
four courses for a five o'clock tea;

IAN INTERESTED READER"
A five o'clock tea is the very SIM
plest of entertainments, and courses
are never served. The hoar Is too
near dinner time to permit of any,
thing heavy in the way of eatables.
Dainty sandwiches, waters, nuts, bon
bons, candies, ginger and fruit glaces
are all adjuncts of the afternoon tea
table. Generally the choice OF two
beverages is given, tea, with its vari-
GUS accompaniments of lemon, arrak,
rum and fruit juices; coffee or choco-
late, the latter always with whipped
cream. Sometimes a frappe or sher-
bert is served, or an iced drink II the
weather is very warm. In winter 1t
has been rather popular to have a
cup of piping hot bouillon to warm
those coming in from the frosty air.
The refreshments are to promote So
ciability and not cloy the appetite so
that the next meal will not be an I'M
possibility. Up to date we have not
achieved the capacity of our English
cousins, who consume many and
heavy meals at short intervals. 1t is
usual for an intimate friend or two to

Nanny Jacobson Now an American.

Nanny Jacobson. the Swedish sailor,
coxswain of a cutter, who dashed into the
channel in front of Santiago de Cuba under
hot fire from Ell MORO and lifted the
cable during the Spanish-American war,
realized the dream and ambition of his
life in New York yesterday, American
citizenship. 1t was an ambition which he
has cherished since his boyhood, even be-
fore he packed his clothes into a chest
when he was seventeen years old and came
over here, with the idea that this was the
greae country on earth, and that he
wanted to be one of Its citizens. Nanny
yesterday exhibited with pride the congress
sional medal and the certificate Of promo
ton to chief petty officer which his exploit
won him. Nanny is twenty-nine years old
and fine specimen of the man-o'-wars-
man, broad-shouldered, brown-skinned
deep-chested. He comes Of good people

Jackobson, is royal physician to King o.

RESUMES ITS SESSIONS
LEXINGTON AND NORTH CAPITOL
STREET ASSOCIATION.
Stable on Hanover Place a Theme Of
Discussion-Beautif of
Washington.

With a good attendance of the members
the first meeting Of the North Capitol and
lexington Citizens Association held since
the adjournment for the summer season
took place last evening in ST. Martins Hall,
North Capitol and T streets. President A.
r. Server presided over the meeting and
Secretary A. o. Tingley was at his desk.
Mr.. Server said that as it was the first
meeting since the summer season he would
be pleased to have each remember this
year the duties he owed to the community;
land I am sure" said Mr.. Server, that
we will He then spoke of the various
sidewalks that had been built and of the
extension of the fire limits. and stated
that the members Of the association should
be proud.
The s., 600 which is to be used by the Com
missioners for improving. Lincoln avenue
was also commented upon at some length
by the president. The plan of keeping beau
tlful lawns in the section represented by
the association was also treated of, and Mr..
Server said he was proud of many of the
yards of the folks of their part of the city.
In the distribution of the prizes for the
best-kept lawns of the section the past
summer, he said the judges dealt impair
TALLY with all. Over 100 lawns, it was said,
were considered, and Mr.. Server remarked
acceptable. In conclusion he said I'VE are
thankful to the Commissioners for the con-
siderate way they have treated our section
of the city"
Mr.. c. P. Boss reminded President Server
that he had forgotten one thing, and that
was that Q Street Is now being swept three
times a week. After acknowledging the
omission Mr. Server stated that even the
telephone company is doing its part for the
lexington and North Capitol section, and
is rapidly placing its wires there. Secretary
Tingley then read the minutes Of the last
meeting, and they were approved as read.
The report of the executive committee
was read by Mr.. Tingley, following which
Mr.. Server took up and discussed the mat
ter of locating a certain private stable on
Hanover place northwest. Dr.. E. D.
Thompson of the executive committee also
spoke of the matter at length and stated
that the owner of the premises claimed that
Hanover pace is an alley. DR.. Thompson
added that by reason of a donation of thir-
ty additional feet of ground after the pub
lie space had been established Hanover
place had become a siXty-foot street. He
said the owner of the stable had violated
the law by covering shed with tar paper
and putting a blacksmith's forge in the
building.
Introducing another theme, 1t was asked
by DR.. Thompson If it could be arranged to
have the crossing policeman al North Cap
itol and New York avenue to remain on
duty during the noon hour of the day on
account of the large number of children
passing at that time. This was referred to
the police committee for consideration.
