THE COUNTRY IS PROSPEROUS.

WASHINGTON, June 10. Despite the
uncertain conditions of the money
market, the gloomy outlook as to the
crops, and the feeling of unrest in in
dustrial and commercial centres, gov
eminent officials declare that all signs
point to continuance of the prosper
Gus times that the United States has
enjoyed since 1897.
The national treasury is filled to
overlooking, receipts from all sources
are increasing at a tremendous rate,
national banks are prospecting as never
before, and Uncle Sam is doing land
office business at the stamp windows Of
the 10000 or more post offices throug-
out Che country. Recent reports show
that the crops, with the possible excep-
ton of cotton, are not as hard hit as
they appeared to be week or so ago,
aud with break in the present unsea-
sonable weather another bumper may
be registered by the Secretary of Agri-
culture for the year 1907.

WHY GROWING GIRLS NEED A SAT-
TONIC

DR.. Williams Pink Pills Particularly Adap-
ted to Their Condition, Free from Opiates
or Harmful Drugs and Highly Recon-
mended by Those Who Have Tried Them.
Growing girls who show WEAKNESS, want
Of strength, lauguor, are pale and perhaps
short of breath, need a tonic.
Not all TONES are suited for their use at
this critical time in their lives but DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills are.
Taken when the girl is developing into
the woman they insure, as far as medicine
can, the full flower of womanhood, robust,
strong and healthy.
Neglect of the health at this time means a
life Of misery and is often followed by a
short, dry cough which is the forerunner of
consumption.
Miss Louise Westphal of 233 Locust street,
Dubuque, Iowa, says: "A few years ago |
was in d very weakened condition, one that
is common to many growing girls. l was
nervous most of the time, lost weight, had
poor complexion and no appetite. | was
completely run down and had no ambition
at all. For months ] was under doctor S
care but nothing helped me. My friends
thought ! was going into consumption and
as my father died of that disease there seem
ed reason for the belief
~ had been sick about a year when DR..
Williams Pink Pills were recommended to
me by friend who knew of another girl
VINO had been cured by them of a trouble
similar to mine. After taking three boxes
l obtained relief and several more cured
me. The sallow complexion disappeared, I
had good-appetite once more and am still
strong and healthy in every way. | think
1t only proper to make this statement for
the benefit of those who suffer because they
90 not know the real value of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
These pills are peculiarly adapted for dis
eases due to impure blood and shattered
nerves. They are invaluable in aEema,
rheumatism, after-etfects of the grip and
fevers and in sick headaches, dizziness,
nervousness and neuralgia. A valuable

What the Doctors Say.

Here are few of the sayings of DR..
Osler, late of Johns Hopkins and now
of Oxford:
1t is all moonshine for a doctor to
pretend that he can cure all diseases.
If you cannot cure man tell him so.
Remember that a physician is the
teacher and not the slave of a patient.
We work by wit and not by witch
craft.
There are diseases that as yet we
have found no remedy for, and we
might as well confess it.
There is too much drugging, and
there are only few great drugs worth
handling.
