TWITCHING NERVES
A Serious Hereditary Trouble Cured
BY Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Sufferers from ailments that have af-
ficted III regular succession one genera
ton after another of their family are, as
rule, inclined to submit to them as ill.,
evitable. The case which follows proves
that such hereditary difficulties are not
beyond the reach of curative forces and
should inspire hopefulness and readi-
ness to try remedies that have effected
signal cures, such as that which is here
given.
Mrs. Elizabeth Rannells, of No. 408
East Seventh street, Newton, Kansas,
gives the following account of her all
ment and her cure:
'For two years suffered from trying
nervousness in my lower limbs from my
knees down, as my mother and my
grandmother had suffered before me.
The situation was for many years ac-
cepted as unavoidable because heredi-
tary. Butabout two years ago, when my
son was realizing benefit from the use of
DIR. Williams Pink Pills, I thought there
might possibly be some good in them for
me. My trouble had then become so
serious as to make it difficult for me to
sleep. often had to walk the floor in
restlessness the whole night. After TAX
ing some six boxes the twitching disap-
peared and ceased to use the remedy.
/ evidently stopped a little too soon for
nervousness came back after a month OF
so and / used the pills again for a short
time. Relief casne at once and since
stopped using them the second time
have been free from any return Of the
twitchings or from any interference with
my sleep"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have cured
the worst cases of bloodlessness, indiges
ton, influenza, headaches, lumbago, sci
]. atica, neuralgia, nervousness, spina
weakness the special ailments of girl
and women. For further information

and fathers, who have furnished The
sinews of war, are not very conspicu-
GUS.
During the season when everybody
has feeling of haste and rush is il
the atmosphere, there are many entes
tainments in progress on the same da.'
Guests go from one home to anothel,
in the same afternoon, meeting the
same people over and over. This add.
not little to the gayety of life.
When a girl has been formally intro
duced she is eligible on every joyous
occasion at which she is properly chap
eroned. Her mother is usually her
chaperone, although her father may
officiate in this capacity, or her mar
ried sister, or any youthful matron of
her acquaintance. A woman who is an
acknowledged spinster and has passed
the border line of 40, may also act as
chaperone to debutante. While chap
eronage is not vigorously insisted upon
in small villages and rural communi-
ties, it is indispensable in the scheme
of life of our larger cities. Girls and
men lose nothing by having with them
other festive gatherings, the presence
and support of an older woman, who
imposes no disagreeable restraint, but
is really protection.
The butterfly of fashion starts on
round as relentless and strenuous as
the routine of a working bee in THE
business hive. 1t takes a good deal out
of her, and in a great house pains are
taken to keep her fresh and untired.
If she is up late at night, she is allowed
to sleep through the morning, and the
house bushes itself that she may not
be disturbed. Her maid arranges her
bath, takes care of her clothing and
waits on her hand and foot. She soon
learns the art of selection and chooses
her pleasures. and if she have a SEN
sible mother she is encouraged to de-
vote a portion of time to reading, mu-
sic, her home and her younger brothers
and sisters.
Society girls are not wholly selfish.
They are to-day actively engaged in
parish and settlement work; they are
the unofficial aids of clergymen; they
assist the deaconess and the visiting
nurse and their sweet faces are seen
in homes of poverty. These girls often
reach out helping hand to those who
are toiling all day long in shop and
factory.
After awhile, perhaps two or three
| years after her debut, our princess
royal is again the central figure on a
bright occasion. This time instead of
the silver strains of the Hungarian
band, there are deep and solemn chords
hand is playing the wedding march.
Down the long aisle sweeps the bridal
train. All in white with a floating
veil and eyes modestly downcast, comes
the girl on the arm of her father. The
man she has honored by her prefer
ence waits at the chancel to meet her.
The fateful words are soon said, for
richer, for poorer, for better, for worse,
till death us do part. The mystic rite
that binds true hearts for all the years
are spoken. Our society girl has taken
upon her the VOWS of wife Here she
will prove herself what an American
woman should be, efficient, capable
trustworthy and loving, a good wife
and if children are given her, a good
mother.
This is the evolution of the butter
fly.
