Or. Williams Pink Pills Cured This
Woman and Have Cured Many
Hundreds Of Other Gases OF
Ailments
Common Ailnent

Loss of appetite, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth heavy dull headache
and dull, sluggish feeling these are
the symptoms Of stomach trouble. They
indicate that the stomach Is on strike;
that it is no longer furnishing to the
blood the full quota of nourishment that
the body demands, hence every organ
suffers.
There are two methods of treatment,
the old one by which the stomach Is
HUNDRED by the use of predigested foods
and artificial ferments, and the new one
hy whiC. the stomach is toned up TO do
the work which nature intended OF 1t.
A recent ere by the tonic treatment is
that of Mrs. Mary SJackpole, of 81
Liberty street, Lowell, Mass. She says:
II suffered constantly for years from
stomach trouble and terrible backaches

Pink Pills"
These wonderful pills are useful in
wide range Of diseases such as anRmia,
rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous
headaches, and even looomotor ataxia
and partial paralysis.
The great value of DR. Williams Pink
Pills lies in the fact that they actually
make new blood and this carries health
and strength to every portion of the
body. The stomach is toned up, the
nerves are strengthened every organ Is
stimulated to do its work.

all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on receipt

CHANGED NATURES FACE.
Earthquake Of Great Force in Solo
mon Islands.

SAN FRANCISCO, February 2.-The Sol
ONION Islands, in the South seas. were Wis
tied by a fearful earthquake several months
ago, and SO heavy was the force OF the
tremble that the earth was opened and
deep gorges created. The entire appear
ance of the islands was changed by the
great upheaval, but as far as can be as
certained there was no loss of life.
The news was brought here by Gov. c.
B. L. Moore, who arrived on the Oceanic
Steamship Company's steamer Sierra yes
terday from Samoa. He stated that a
trading schooner came into Apia from the
Solomon group shortly before he left for
this country with news of the tremble. The
details brought by the trader were meager.
1t was deemed probable that the earth
quake that was experienced in the Solomon
Islands was the one shown on seismo-
graphs in various parts Of the world. Ac-
cording to the instrument at Apia, Samoa.
1t lasted for several minutes, and was said
to be the heaviest shock ever recorded. 1t
was figured that 1t took place somewhere
in the South seas, but as no report came
from that civilized island 1t was believed
that 1t took place at sea.

Report Of Special Board of Army Of
f1cers Received.

The Secretary of War has received the
report of the special board of army officers
detailed to select land in the neighborhood
of Fort Oglethorpe, Ga, for use as a bril-
gade post and maneuver camp. The tract
will cost nearly million dollars. The
board has obtained options on certain land
which options expire in March and July.
The report states:
1.-THE board is of the opinion that the por-
ton of the tract adjoining Fort Oglethorpe
is well suited for expansion into brigade
post, with necessary grounds for drills
ceremonies and elementary instruction In
extended order. 1t is considered that this
tract is sufficiently large for mixed gar
rison. not to exceed three regiments. The
board deems that this other tract should
be utilized for working out problems In
volving combined operations of all arms
and any number Of troops concentrated
for maneuver purposes. The land Is so
situated that in operating over 1t it will
be necessary for the troops to remain out
over night. This is considered as an adj
vantage, as it necessitates closer approxi-
nation to service conditions. This land Is
well suited for the use intended. 1t adj
