PAIN TURNS HAIR WHITE.

Woman's Awful Suffering From
Neuralgia. No Relief Until She Tried DIR
Williams Pink Pills. Then She Gained in
Weight, the Pain Ceased and She Has
Been in Perfect Health Ever Since.
DO not seek relief from suffering simply,
but free your system from the disease
which is the cause of your suffering. hat
is the message which former victim OF
neuralgia sends to those who are still in
the grasp of that most acutely painful of
nervous diseases. Hot applications,
powders that deaden the senses and Others
that reduce the heart action may cause
temporary relief but the pain is sure to re-
turn with greater intensity Neuralgia has
been aptly described as the cry of starved
nerve. In neuralgia the nerves need
nourishment and the only way to nourish
them is through the blood.
Mrs. Evelyn Creusere, who has a beauti-
ful home at 61l Boulevard West, Detroit,
Mich, suffered for years with neuralgia
until she tried this tonic treatment and was
cured. She says:
"My trouble began about six years ago
and | did not rest as should have, but
kept up about my many duties. After a
time | became SO weak ! could not do any
such dreadful headaches i'll the back part
and top of my head. My eyes were easily
tired and at times l saw black spots before
them. | consulted several doctors but
without the slightest benefit The
neuralgia pains were so intense that my
hair turned white.
Il lost continually in weight and strength
and was almost in despair when friend
here in Detroit recommended DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, saying that they did her so
much good when she was all run down. So
| tried them according to directions and
soon began to feel relief. At the end OF
three months | had gained ten pounds in
weight and had no more trouble with my
nerves. ! have been in perfect health ever
since and can heartily commend DIT.
Williams Pink Pills"
Mrs Creusere is a prominent member OF
the MaccabeeS and has served as president
OF the Woman's Relief Corps. Her story
may be absolutely depended upon and it
should bring hope to every nervous sufferer.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills actually make new
blood and are therefore a specific for
anHmia in all its forms aud valuable in the
treatment of rheumatism, general debility
and most forms of stomach trouble. On ac-
count of the dependence of the nervous
system upon the blood they are useful in
nervous disorders and have cured nervous
| debility, neuralgia, headaches and even
| such severe troubles as partial paralysis,
St. Vitus dance and locomotor ataxla'
| Proof of cures will be sent on application.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
| druggists, or sent, postpaid, on receipt OF
| price, soc. per box, six boxes for $3.50, by
| the DR.. Williams Medicine Company,

PEN PICTURES.


A correspondent Of the Bangor Com
mercial who recently visited Crotch
Island, where work is in progress on a
big granite contract. closed her letter
as follows:
Climbing the ragged cliffs we find a
view that transfixes US with admiration.
The August sun is sinking in a blaze of
glory behind the Camden hills, 80 miles
away. Beneath its glow Penobscot bay
lies calmly sleeping, grading on its
bosom hundreds of green wooded
islands For away to the north we can
see Bluehill, upon whose majestic head,
crowned by ancient spruces, the dying
sunbeams linger in fond caress. East
ward the lengthening shadows are flee
ing toward Bar Harbor and its pleasures,
while to the south stretches the broad.
blue, boundless ocean, its sobblng
monotone telling of sunken rocks and
reefs not Ear away,
The tinkle of mandolin and gutter
betray the presence Of an Italian settle
ment, nesting in wooded valley Just
beyond the cliffs, where dark eyed men
and women rest and sing their songs
of love and home and far-off Italy. And
over all hroods the peaceful hush that
tells us:
The day is done and darkness
Falls from the wings of night;
As d feather is waited downward
From an eagle in its flight.
THE CLOSING DAYS OF SUMNER.
Was ever more beautiful weather
vouchsafed to humanity than that
given to US in the closing days of the
summer: From the dawning of the
morning to the golden sunsets there
has been just one uninterrupted CLEAN
of glory, as if radiated from some
celestial realm. The hoar frost had
not laid its whitening hand upon
foliage, forest or field; the remaining
wild flowers were still rearing their
heads in what seemed to be perpetual
bloom, with a new lease of life: tha
robins in the southland were feeling
sorry that they had taken their depar-
ture SO soon; the sharp, rasplng voice
of the locust was still heard under the
fences: while the indefinable haze of
approaching autumn neutraliZed the
intense blue of the overarching heavens.
Nature was still full of summer life and
activity.
The polen-dusted bees seek for the honey
lees
That linger in the last flowers Of Septem-
ber."

beauty should have a rude awakening
