A KENTUCKY
WOMAN
TELLS HOW DR. WILLIAMS PINK
FILLS RESTORED HER HEALTH.
HOW SHE GAINED FIFTEEN POUNDS IN
WEIGHT AND BECAME WELL FOR
THE FIRST TIME IN TWO YEARS.

There comes time in the life of ev-
cry woman when the bloom of youth
begins to fade from the cheek, the
elastic step, the ringing laugh, the
brightness of the eyes give way to the
more sober tones of middle age and
headaches, dizziness, faintness and
spells OF the "blues' show tendency
to appear. Women at forty, or there
abouts, have their future in their own
hands. There will be a. change for
the better or worse, for the better if
the system Is purified by such a tonic
as Dr Williams Pink Pills. Mrs D.
q. wedding, of Hartford, KY, writes
as follows concerning the difficulties
which afflicted her:
II was seriously i'll and was confine d
70 my ned Tor six or eight months in
all, during two years. 1 had chills,
seemed always too full, my kidneys
d1d not act FREELY, my liver was mac
tive, my heart beat was very weak
and I had dizziness or swimming in
my head, and nervous troubles,
was under the treatment of sew
eral different physicians but they all
tailed to do me any good. After suf-
fer1ng for two years, l learned from
an Arkansas friend about the merits
OF DR. Williams Pink Pills and 1 de-
c1ded that would try them. The
very hrst box took made me feel bet
Ter and when had taken four boxes
more was entirely Well, weighed tif-
Teen pounds more than when 1 began,
resumed my household duties, and
have since continued in the best of
health: l have recommended DR. Will
l1ams' Pink Pills to many people on
account of what they did for me, and
l feel that cannot praise them too
DR. Williams Pink Pills restored Mrs
wedding to health because they act
ually make new blood and when the
blood is in full vigor every function of
the body is restored, because the
blood carries to every organ, every
muscle, every nerve, the nourishment
necessary to enable it to do it's part.
Because DR. Williams Pink Pills make
the blood rich and red they restore
lost weight, strengthen and revitalize
the nerves, bring color to the cheeks,
Danish rheumatic pains and bring
good health and spirits to the de-
pressed. Any woman who is interest
ed In the cure of Mrs Wedding will
want our book: "Plain Talks to Wgm-
en-, which is free on request.
All druggists sell DR. Williams Pink
Pills or they will be sent by mail, post
paid, on receipt of price, so cents per
box, six boxes for $3.50, by the DR. Will

Mrs. o. w. Griffin of $50 San Julian
street called at the central police sta

in the past week to urge the police
to renew their efforts in locating her
daughter Mary Griffin, who disap-
peared from this city recently.
"The girl was lured from her home,
1 am certain" said Mrs. Griffin, half
hysterically, "but for fear do the wo-
man I suspect an injustice, 1 will not
tell you her name yet"
According to the information received
by the police, the girl was employed at
a house near EastlaI1e park. Her moth er
missed her letters and became alarmed.
She came to this city and has been

Beggs is said TO be fine looking
man just in the prime of life. He is
4S years old and his wife is 40. His
description has been given to every
policeman in Los Angeles and it is
probable he will be arrested inside of
the next twenty-four hours. Detec-
tives Talamantes and Ritch and Pa
trolmen Allen and Johnson were sent
to the scene of the crime as soon as
the report was sent in by Gertrude
Beggs. 1t is believed by the detectives
that the man will be found in some low
dive. 1t is almost certain that he will
not kill himself, as he is an arrant
coward, and it is thought that he shot
his wife from behind.
The injuries inflicted upon the wo-
man are as follows: One bullet pene-

the tongue and lodging in the nose;
