Do not make the mistake Vi thinking
that these are diseases in themselves
and be satisfied with temporary relief.
This is the way the nerves give warn
ing that they are breaking down. 1t
simply means that the blood has become
impure and cannot carry enough nourish-
ment to the nerves to keep them healthy
and able to do their work.
Rest, alone, will sometimes give the
needed relief. The tonic treatment by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, however, pre-
vents the final breakdown of the nerves
and the more serious diseases which
follow, because the pills act directly
upon the impure blood, making it rich,
red and pure.

IL was never very healthy and some
years ago, when in q rundown condi-
ton, ! suffered a nervous shock, caused
by q misfortune to a friend. 1t was SO
great that l was untitled for work.
81 was just weak, low-spirited and
nervous. Icould hardly walk and could
not bear the least noise. Ny appetite
was poor and l did not care for food. I
couldn't sleep well and once for two
weeks got scarcely an hours sleep. I
had severe headaches most Of the time
and pains in the back and spine.
~ was treated by two doctors, being
under the care of one of them for six
months. I got no relief and then de.
cided to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills. I
soon began to feel better and the i'm
provement was general. My appetite
became hearty and my sleep better.
The headaches all left and also the pains
in my back. A few more boxes entirely
cured me and / was able to go back to
work. I felt splendid and as though 7
had never been sick"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable

A NAVAL SWIMMING TEST
GOSSIP ON THE SUBJECT IN THE
DEPARTMENT.

Assistant Secretary Newberry's alleged
suggestion of swimming test for naval
officers, in line with President Roosevelt s
order providing for riding tests for army
officers was a topic of general interest in
naval circles today. OF course nobody took
Mr.. Newberry seriously. The suggestion,
however. gave food for animated discussion
in all the bureaus of the department as to
the capacity of naval officers to perform
Keats In the swimming line or to save their
lives II they fell overheard during storm
or through any other accident. One we'll
known officer said he thought the capacity
to swim should not be regarded as test of
efficiency in the navy. 1t would be about
as effective in the navy, he said. as teach
ing a railway clerk to jump off a train
when a collision is inevitable. so far as
the actual benefits that might result.
Officers as well as enlisted men OF the
may are taught to swm-the former as
part Of their course of training at Annapo-
lis. and the latter as a result of formal in
structions given on the subject by the
naval regulations. At Annapolis the men
are taught both to swim and to dance, thus
Qualifying them for the water and for the
social end of their work. Most of the Of
hcers, it is safe to say, can swim. though
number of the older ones would find ii
pretty hard work to make any sustained
effort in that direction They have not,
however, forgotten their early training in
that direction, and proud of what
they have done in that line in their
earlier days. The following order. issued
March l. 1900 by Secretary John y. Long,
gives the requirements for teaching the en-
listed man to swim:
Commanding officers are directed that
where the weather. climate and other cir
cumstances will permit a regular period be
established in the routine of exercises and
drills for teaching the men and apprentices
swimming; such exercise to include every
enlisted person on board ship, unless eX-
cused by the surgeon.
commandment chief are enjoined to re-
quire compliance with this order to the end
that all persons in the service may be eX-
pert swimmers, and they will, on their in
spections. investigate and report what per
cent of the crew can swim"
