NERVOUS DEBILITY
4 Scranton Woman Tells How o..
Williams Pink Pills Made Her
Well and Strono

Nervous debility is the common name
Tor what the doctors term neurasthenia.
1t is characterized by mental depression,
hts OF the "blues," or melancholy, loss
OF energy and spirits. The patient eyes
become dull, the pink fades from the
cheeks, the memory becomes defective so
that it is difficult to recall dates and
names at will. Some of these symptoms
only may be present or all of them. The
remedy lies in toning up the nervous
system and there is no medicine better
adapted for this purpose than DIR.
Williams Pink Pills.
Mrs. Jane J. Davies, of No. 314 War
rem street, Scranton, Pa, says: "Some
years ago l became greatly reduced in
health and strength and my nervous
system became so debilitated that I felt
wretched. Icould not rest or sleep well
at night and woke up as weary and
languld In the morning as I was when
went to bed. My head ached in the
morning and often there was a pain in
my right side which was worse when I
sat down. My nerves were ON edge all
the time, every little noise bothered me
and 1 was generally miserable. Then I
decided to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, as my husband had taken
them with good results, and thew did
wonders for me. Now I have no more
pain i'll my side, no more headaches, I
sleep well and feel strong and able to
do my work"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs.
Davies and they can do just as much
for other weak, pale, ailing men or
women who are slipping into hopeless
decline. They strike straight at the root
of all common diseases caused by poor
and impoverished blood.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, 80 cents per box, six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, NY.

Some exquisite tea gowns which I
saw were made of the cobweb muslin,
with lavish incrustations of Brussels
point de gaze and with raised embroid-
cry work in fine white threads. The
gowns were cut en- princesse, and had
quantity of lace arranged in soft
frills on the bodice and elbow sleeves.
Crossed over the breast and tied be-
hind in a big "Mousmee" bow were
lengths of crepe de Chine, embroid-

For tea-gowns and for dinner dresses
of a somewhat picturesque order the
'Mousmee" sash will be leading fea-
ture this autumn; to very slender
figures it is eminently becoming, but
it is not for the many.
With regard to the hats for autumn
wear, it is difficult to speak. They are
for the greater part so wonderful and
yet so simple. The r2ost popular mode
of the moment is the cloche brim sur

Everybody in China works hard,
even those who have reached the high

of the privy council he was engaged

Rust Marks,

Linen suits have way of showing
AN ugly rust mark on the top of the
shoulders-from the coathanger upon
which it was carefully kept whenever
out of use.
Coathangers should always be Gov
cred before they are used for white
or delicate colored things. Little bags
of silk or linen or dimity can be drawn
over the long sides and held in place
by narrow ribbons, tied into pretty
bows. And then, even if the weather
is damp enough to make everything
rust, the brunt of it won't come upon
ones very best bib and tucker, but
upon an easily replaced thing.

Friendship VS.. Woman's Love
By WILLIAM FORSTER BROWN.

Capt. Amos Stubs, putting like al
overworked tugboat, drew his pudgy
form out of the water and climbed
laboricusly across the jagged ridges OF
Whaleback ledge.
Darn it," he wheezed wrathfully
as he reached the top-a small, cir
cumscribed area of dry rock-"Guess
I might ez well make up my mind to
stay here all night l wouldn't hey
Wilder Tompkins find out I'd been
fool enough to git ketched in the Horse
Race an capsized for carload O lob

The captains eyes, rowing DULY over
the rocky knobs and hollows that sur
rounded him, rested at length on a
bright object among the pile Of stones.
It was a small silver flask.
It's more'n half full O. suthin," he
decided, flicker, Ikely's not"
He unscrewed the cap and applied
the Mouth of the flask to his nose
"'Tis licker!" he grunted.

won't know no more about it," fitting
the flask determinedly, than she will
about my bein' here on Whaleback,

that didn't go right to the spot!"
A comforting warmth arose and DIS
tributed Itself over the captains ans''
tony, and even his damp feet began to
glow Cheerfully.

him a month O. Sundays, an he'd like
nuthin' better-him an me not bein'

tell everybody in specially

All at once Capt. Stubs dropped his
wet sleeve and listened eagerly.
Wonder what 'tis?" he queried
aloud; sounds like one of them oil
boats over to the Pint; hope to good
ness it is one of 'em, cause then I'll

He peered over the lump of rock and
the next instant dropped stiff1y to his
knees.

savagely, seems ez If there want

The captain promptly spreadeagled
his wet body fat on the rock, face
down, and waited anxiously.
That moment quavering hail arose
from below: "Cap'n Stubbs?"
The captain held his breath.
Higgins hez seen the dory," he ac-
knowledged regretfully, "but mebbe he

"Cap'n Stubbs?" The hail arose
again, penetrating and insistent.

Reluctantly Capt. Stubs crawled to
his feet and stared down calmly at his
interrogation.

The man in the dory guffawed

The so-called pure food bill was passed
Saturday by the House and the confer
ence report on the railroad bill was
adopted. The vote on the food bill was
242 to II. There was a long discussion
over the anti-pass agreement of the rail-
road rate bill, feeling being displayed on
both sides, but the previous question was
adopted by a vote of 121 to 81, and the
conference report agreed to PIG to 4.
The Senate members Of the conference
committee on the meat inspection bill
were appointed Saturday afternoon and
included Senators Proctor, Hansbrough
and Simmons. This action came at the
close of a very animated discussion upon
several points at issue between the House
and Senate, principally the dating of the
cans and placing of the cost on the pack
ers.
Under a rule limiting debate on all but
two sections, the so-called immigra ton
bill was discussed for three hours Monday
in the House and passed without a yea
and nay vote being permitted on any
of the paragraphs, the representatives
having large foreign colonies in their
districts lining up generally against the
head tax of IS which was defeated. and
against the educational test After an
interesting contest, a substitute for the
educational test providing that the whole
matter be submitted to a commission
was adopted by a close vote. The most
important features of the bill were thus
eliminated and the bill was passed with
out division.
The House insisted on its amendments
to the pure food bill, and asked for a con-
ference. The speaker appointed as con-
ferees Mr.. Mann OF Illinois, Mr.. Hepburn
OF Iowa and Mr.. Ryan Of New York. The
Senate agreed to the conference and Sem
ators Hepburn, McCumber and LAtimer
were appointed as conferees.
An unusual amount of business was
| transacted by both houses of Congress
Wednesday, and it is hoped to reach ad-
journment by Saturday night. A complete
| agreement was reached by the conferees
on the pure food bill, while a deadlock in
conference on the meat inspection bill
was reported to the Senate In the Sem
ate Mr.. Bailey defended himself against
attacks made in the articles entitled THE
Treason of the Senate" and the bill reg
ulating naturalization Of aliens was pass
ed. The House passed the general de-
| ficiency bill, the last of the great appro-
priation measures, and sent the lock canal
bill to the President. A tentative agree
ment on the railroad rate bill was reach
ed. No action will be taken on the Dom
inican and Moroccan treaties at the pres
ent session.

The salutary effects of the proceedings
instituted by the village bailiffs against
local automobilists is striklngly apparent
in the diminished speed with which the
motor cars are piloted through the
streets and in the caution exercised by
the drivers in approaching crossings and
intersecting streets. That the law as 1t
stands on the statutes has been habitually
broken is beyond question and the bailiffs
should be upheld in their efforts to en-
force the law and safeguard the rights
of citizens at large. If the law is OBJ
noxious the quickest way to secure
change in 1t is by enforcement. This is
an argument which some Of the men now
involved have advanced before in refer
ence to the law controlling the sale of
liquor and other measures. 1t is the
fortunate that a certain class of citizens
the carpers and deriders whom we have
always with us-should regard the appli-
cation of the law as joke, and from the
perch of unmolested complacency make
the owners of automobiles the target OF
cheap wit on one side and with a sick
'em Tige" spirit prod the bailinfs and
officers with challenges of don't dare"
It is also unfortunate that some men
who have never driven their cars reck-
lessly and have always shown a proper
consideration for drivers of horses and
pedestrians should be caught in the drag
net and brought to the bar while others
who have gone whlzzing through the
streets at extreme speed and with a
"get-out-of- the-way" air should not fall
into the meshes. A large majority of the
local motorists intend to run their cars
right, but one operator afflicted with the
sped bacillus may bring nine others who
handle their cars carefully under the
ban Of condemnation. To man who has
been careful in running his car and who
may have exceeded the speed limit with
out jeopardizing the welfare or interests
Of others 1t is no slight matter to be
brought into court on criminal charge,
to be liable to a large hne and imprison-
ment should he be found guilty under any
circumstances thereafter of running in
excess of legal speed in this state, and
in case of any accident to have his pre-
vious court record brought up against
him as damning evidence.

The vote in the Senate Thursday on the
OF Senator E1ttredge Of South
Dakota, providing for a sea level water
way, was 81 yes, &c no; this determined
the question and without division 1t was
decided that the report Of the minority
OF the board Of consulting engineers should
be adopted and that canal Of the lock
type should be built. The American en-
gineers favored lock canal, but the for
eign engineers expressed a preference for
a seal level canal. The decision Of the
Senate does not necessarily mean a per-
manent lock canal. One of this type.
however, can be constructed cheaper and
quicker than a broad waterway, but 1t
is probable that the question viii not be
permanently settled until the isthmus is
opened so that large vessels sail directly
through from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

Vermont Always Engaged In Politics.
IAthol Transcript

Vermont is always engaged in politics
When 1t is not actually nominating some
one for office II is engaged in whooping
it up for some one. There never seems to
be any cessation Of p qitical activity there
The county newspaI srs fairly TEEN with
political matter weeJ after week, and the
eager efforts OF the aithful scribes in be-
half of their candidates is something in
tense and interesting. Their latest
achi evement is the nomination Of Fletcher
d. Proctor, son of the Senator, for gov
ernor, and Congressman Haskins for
another tenn, though the election is three
months off, and the campaigning has been
on for several months past. The uneasy
fellow, Clement, seems to be the cause of
much of this disturbance in Vermont at
a time when popular attention should be
devoted to Old Home celebrations and
hayin'.

Send Capable Men to the Legislature.
ludlow Tribune.l

Not every man who wants TO go to
Montpelier to assist in making our laws
is equipped for the serious business Of
law making; and just so long as the
towns Of this state continue to humor
the ambitions of poorly qualified candi-
dates and send them TO the legislature,
just so long win the working strength
of the legislative body continue to be
impaired, just so long win we continue
to have crude legislation and imperfect,
ill-considered measures appear on our
statute books. In many instances the
man who should be sent to represent his
town or county is the man who appar-
emily doesn't want to go, and 1t is a mis-
take to allow-as is so often done in the
election of representatives. sympa-
thetic good nature, or possibly a touch
of personal prejudice to crowd out sound
political judgment The business Of the
state, transacted at Montpelier every two
years, is important business and should
not be entrusted to the care Of anybody
who happens TO think he'd like to try his
hand at 1t. The number of men who at
present make our laws is altogether too
large; but that's another story. Let's
keep the quality up to the point where 1t
will be a guarantee Of effective service
Let's honor with a strong backing the
men who are too busy to CO." but who
will go and represent us in a business
like way II we insist on It, Let's insist
on it, Let's send representative men.
