Thanks to them I am now in fine health and have had no return of my former trouble. recom- mend the pills to everyone who is ai1- ing and take every opportunity to let people know how good they are"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs. Morrison because they actually make good, red blood. When the blood is red and healthy there can be no de- bility The relation between the blood and nervous system Is such that the pills have a very decided action upon the nerves and they have cured many severe nervous disorders that have not yielded to ordinary treatment Their double action, on the blood and on the nerves, makes them an ideal spring tonic.

 People of the south.
 Tt was Senator Hoar of Massachu- setts. who said in an address delivered to the New England Society of Charles ten, as he had said before to the Senate of the United States in Washington speaking of the people of the South:
 They have an aptness for command which makes the Southern gentleman, wherever he goes. not peer only. but A prince. They have a love of home; they have, the best of them and the most of them, inherited from the great race from which they come the sense of duty and the instinct of honor as no other people on the face of the earth. They are lovers of home. They have not the mean traits that grow up somewhere in places where money making is the chief end of life. They have, above all. and giving value to all, the supreme and superb constancy which. without regard to personal ann bition. without yielding to the fempta.- ton of wealth without getting tired and without getting diverted. can pur- sue a great public object in and out. year after year. and generation after generation
 "It Is the duty of the Southern press to make the Southern gentleman count for as much now as he did in the bet ter days of the Republic. to make the South strong In the character or Hs people and In the sincerity of their conduct upop all public questions. That is the mission of the press. and we shall not prove worthy of ourselves end of the immense responsibility rest ing upon us unless we shall In large measure, at least, seek to inspire the so-called New South with some of the spirit of honesty and true patriotism which controlled the thought and con- duct of the old South"

Chicago Merchants Say Big
American Racing Event
Will Aid Trade.
HELP ATHLETICS TOO
Plan Is To Have steeplechases,
Pony Polo, Automobile
Races and Golf.

Work on the new racing plant to be
constructed by the Gentlemen's Riding
and Driving association of Chicago will
be begun the first of the year. This
announcement was made last night by
Chairman p. II. Hanney after a star
chamber meeting of the executive COM
mittee. Mr.. Hanney said:
The new organization is success
The business men OF Chicago are be
hind the new association. The execu-
tive committee has received letters
from hundreds of Chicagoans eager for
the success of the new club. The
American Derby drew thousands of
persons annually and meant millions Of
dollars of business to State street mer
chants.
The site for the track and clubhouse
has not yet been decided, but the COM
mittee on location has secured options
on several tracts of land in and out
side the city limits. 1t is the purpose
of the association to found a high class
club, and although we may not be able
to have a Derby right away, it may
come in time.
The other members of the executive
committee are J. T. Prize. Charles A.
Stevens Harry j. Powers, c. W. Marks,
A. c. Frost and O. E. Binner.
Officers of New Association.
The officers of the new association
are: Elbridge Hanecy, president; Chas.
e. Davis, vice president; Benjamin t.
DeMuth, secretary; II. Wallenberg,
treasurer. The membership of the as
ISOLATION already includes many men al
lied with the best business and social
interests of Chicago.
The new association will recall the
defunct Washington Park club, except
that particular attention will be paid
to equestrian sports. An excellent
track will be built, handsome club
house and appointments. Golf links
and tennis courts will be laid out on
the infeld.
Ultimately, it is believed, the club
may hold q regular running meeting
reviving the American Derby and other
famous turf classics which were run
at Washington park 1t is founded
however, in the interests of sport in
which ladies and gentlemen may take
part.
Steeplechases with gentlemen riders
| and fiat racing for hunters and pole
! ponies with gentleman riders and auto
mobile races in which both professional
! and amateurs will drive will be fea-
! lures
Chicago Men Much Enthused.
! The project has met with enthusiasm
/ on all sides and the executive commit
/ tee believes that by Jan. l the associa
| ton membership will number 1000.
Lawrence Heyworth, president of The
/ Mutual bank, said: Chicago needs sucf
a track for the benefit of equestrian'
as we'll as the American Derby and
/ favor the location of the South Shore
! Country club
Harry j. Powers in speaking of The
new association, said: Chicago is thu
metropolis aspiring to the class of thu
worlds greatest cities, like London
Paris and New York, and we SHOULD
have all the attractions of such cite
to be in the running
