VII FROM OVERWORK
NERVOUS PRosTRATIoN CURED.
BY Oh. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
BY TonIna up the Blood and Nerves Pa
tient Recovered Weight, Strength
and Good Spirits.


When the nervous system is broken
down from overwork, or whatever cause,
life loses its joys. Not only is the ner-
vous victim sufferer himself but he is
usually trial to the whole family.
Nervous breakdown is often gradual.
appearing at first to be merely an unu-
sual fretfulness. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills tone up the nerves in the most
direct way and not only cure minor
troubles but serious disorders as well.
Mr.. w. w. Munroe, of 16 Hazel Park.
Everett, Mass, says: about four years
ago this September I became all run
down from overwork and from confine--
ment to work during warm weather.
For two months I grew steadily worse.
lost in weight and strength and had no,
appetite. My memory failed me quite
rapidly and became in very low
state, both physically and mentally. I
took no interest in life, neither in bust
ness nor recreation. In my position, as,
foreman in large manufacturing
chemists establishment in Boston, a.
good memory is absolutely essential to
success because of the immense amount
of detail that must be carried in the head.
~ grew very despairing, could not;
bear to have people meet me and my
friends remarked on my condition.
About the middle of December q friend
told me one day that he had triedYDr.
Williams Pink Pills and found them
reliable, / commenced taking them-and
at the end of two weeks the change for
the better was remarked by friends. I
continued using the pills until / was
thoroughly recovered. regard them as
a fine remedy and make this statement
voluntarily in gratitude for the benefit
received from them"
These pills actually make new blood
and have cured such diseases as rheu-
matism, nervous and general debility,
Indigestion, nervous headache, neuralgia
and even partial paralysis and locomotor
ataxia. AS tonic for the blood and
nerves they are unequalled.
Ii you are sufferer from any disor-
der of the blood and nerves write for
proof of what DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have accomplished in cases similar
to yours. Every testimonial used by
this company is carefully investigated
before being published and is authentic.

druggists, or direct by mail, postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box, six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams

ROMANTIC DEvoNsAlRE.
The Land Made Famous by PhlIpotts'
Novels.


Philpotts has made us familiar with
romantic Devonshire, in his fascinating
novels, THE Riyer,' children of the
Mist" etc. The characters are very
human; the people there drink coffee
with the same results as elsewhere. A
writer at Rock House, Orchard Hill,
Bideford, North Devon, states:
For 80 years drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner but some 5 years
ago found that it was producing indi-
gestion and heartburn, and was max
ing me restless at night These symp-
toms were followed by brain flag and
a sluggish mental condition.
when l realized this, made up my
mind to quit drinking coffee and
having read of Postum, concluded to
try it. l had it carefully made, accord
ing to directions, and found to my
agreeable surprise at the end of a
week, that l no longer suffered from
either indigestion, heartburn, or brain
flag, and that could drink it at night
and secure restful and refreshing
Sleep.
Since that time we have entirely
discontinued the use of the old kind of
coffee, growing fonder and fonder of
Postum as time goes on. My digestive
organs certainly do their work much
better now than before, a result due
to Postum Food Coffee, / am satisfied.
'As table beverage we find (for all
the members of my family use it) that
when properly made 1t is most refresh
ing and agreeable, of delicious, flavor
and aroma. Vigilance is. however,
necessary to secure this. for unless the
servants are watched they are likely
to neglect the thorough boiling which
it must have in order to extract the
goodness from the cereal." Name given
by Postum Co.. Battle Creek, Mich.

The Laber shortage.

The shortage of labor in this coun- try appears to be hardly less dis- tressing incident of the prevailing in- dustrial situation than the shortage of capital to carry on great protected undertakings The shortage on the farms is partly explained by the fact that the urgency comes and goes with the planting and gathering of the torops, being redundant and tnsuni- cient by turns. hsdt 7 But the farmers are not the only reu1- ferers. There is scant supply foE ta-, Dor fin nearly ali the other indusfrtes.

ARTISTIC DECORATING

In the decoration of their building the c. H. Booth & Bentley Co. used only the national colors. The entire front of the building was trimmed with wool flags draped in such a manner as to give the effect of large flag way ing in the wind. Between the windows on the second floor were large shields underneath which were draped Ameri- can flags and above which were trophy flags. On the roof of the building were clusters of American flags and from the flagstaff were floating an American flag and three streamers of International League flags and private signals from the United States Navy. The work was done by the c. H. Kos ter Co.,. of New York, who have done the Pension Building in Washington for dents.
