AFRAID Of PARALYSIS.
A NERVOUS SUFFERER CURED
BY DIR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
The Medicine That Makes Rich, Red
Blood and Performs Wonders as
Tonic for the Nerves.

Why are nervous people invariably
pale peoplel
The answer TO that question explains
why remedy that acts on the blood
can cure nervous troubles.
1t explains why DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are also for
nervous people.
1t is because of the intimate relation
between the red corpuscles in the blood
and the health of the nerves. The
nervous system receives its nourishment
through the blood. Let the blood be-
come thin, weak and colorless and the
nerves are starved-the victim. is start
ed on the road that leads to nervous
wreck. Nervous people are pale peo-
pie but the pallor comes first. En-
rich the blood and the nerves are
stimulated and toned up to do their
part of the work of the body. DIR.
Williams Pink Pills make red blood
and transform nervous, irritable, all
ing people into strong, energetic, force
full men and women.
Mrs. Harriet E. Porter, of 20 Liberty
avenue, South Medford, Mass, says:
81 had never been well from child
hood and few years ago / began to
have dizzy spells. At such times 1
could not walk straight. 1 was afraid
of paralysis and was on the verge of
nervous prostration. Then neuralgia
set in and affected the side of my face.
The pains in my forehead were excru-
ciating and my heart panied me so
that my doctor feared neuralgia of the
heart. 1 tried several different kinds
of treatment but they did me no good.
"One day my son brought me some
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills and 1 found
that they strengthened my nerves. i
took several boxes and felt better in
every way. There were no more dizzy
attacks, the neuralgia left me and L
have been a well woman ever since. .
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are invalu-
able in anaemia, rheumatism, after
effects of the grip and fevers and in
sick headaches, nervousness, neuralgia,
and even partial paralysis and loco
motor ataxia.

GAS PRICES HAVE
BEEN GUT DOWN

The business of the Honolulu Gas
expectations of the directors. In con-
sequence the plant has had to be en-
larged and improved to SUCH an ex-
tent that the cost of production has
decreased over twenty-five per cent,
and at meeting of the company's di-
rectors yesterday it was voted to give
the public big share in this benefit.
This was done by cutting the price of
gas for all consumers of five hundred
feet or over a month from 81 thou
sand to $3.50 thousand. This reduc-
ton affects over eighty per cent. of
the patrons of the company.
The original plant of the company
was depended upon to be equal to the
demand for at least three years. If at
the end of that time the demand justi-
fed d new and modern plant the own
ers in the company would have been
satisfied, but before two years had
passed it was found that only by the
hardest kind of hard work and con-
slant pushing could the plant keep up
to the demand. Then it was rcS llNcd
to install the present modern plant, the
success of which is shown by he
gratuitous cutting down of their rates
by the company.
Much of the saving in the cost Of
production is due to the methods in
troduced into the work of gas making
by r. P Valentine, one of the best gas
men of the Coast, who had been in
duced to come here and install the adj
ditional plant.
For Illuminating purposes gas is rap
idly coming into general use, the COM
pany furnishing a 90-candle power
burner at a cost of one half cent per
hour. and there is no deviation in the
quality of the light. Where houses are !
being piped for fuel gas the additional
cost for the lights is trifiing.

WASHINGTON, May Is. - secre-
tarv Taft will be absent from
Washington the best part of a month
on his speaking tour. He begins
speaking May 80 at st. Louis. where
he is scheduled to address a conven-
ton of millers. This will bring him
into touch with a large following from
the Southwest and from UP and down
the Mississippi Valley States. Mis-
souri,. be it remembered, will be well
represented at this convention and will
have thirty-six delegates in the next
Republican National Convention. There
is undoubtedly a leaning toward Sec
rotary Taft among the Missouri Re-
publicans, although the party is badly
split by two warning factions. Inc
Secretary viii traverse the State and
by June will be down at Tulsa, In
dian Territory, where the Republicans
of the new State Of Oklahoma propose
to hold a state convention. The Re-
publicans OF this prospective new Com
monwealth are in a demoralized state,
but are trying to pull themselves to-
gether for hard campaign against the
Democrats in the election of State Off
GERS and of a Legislature which will
choose two United States Senators.
Vice President Fairbanks has already
been down in that country speaking
and made good impression there
That, however, was last autumn, ana
it remains to be seen whether he Sc
cured promises of delegates. Secre-
taft Taft has friends in both Oklahoma
and Indian Territory, and there will be
dead set to get some delegates from
the new State who will vote for his
nomination. If President Roosevelt
approves of the new constitution, and
the Oklahomans also accept it at their
August election, the new State will
have fourteen delegates in the next
Republican National Convention.
The Secretary will travel northward
from Indian Territory and June 10 will
speak, as now arranged before the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Association
at Milwaukee. That is in Senator La
Follette's territory and it is supposed
Senator La Toilette can have the rs

MAN IN GREAT BRITAIN.

The editor of the Museum Gazette Of
London has made an attempt to esti-
mate the length of time man has in
habited Great Britain. He allows $780,
600 wears. The period seems long, but
the tendency Of late has been to extend
it. so that the historic period of some
1000 years in Britain-js small frac-
ton of mans existence here, as the
whole human epoch is small fraction
of the worlds history.

candidacy looming SO prominently,

other aspirants. The Secretary of War

them. But at that convention many
business men will be in attendance and
will have a chance to size up the big
Secretary of War. His next speech
will be two days later at Iowa City,
before students of Minnesota Univer-
sity, at Minneapolis. His remarks be-
fore these two student audiences will
not flavor of politics in the slightest,
although thus far the Secretary has
had no time to prepare any of the six
speeches he is scheduled to deliver.
The last speech he plans to make be-
fore hurrying back to Washington will
be at Ottawa, Kansas, June 20. There
as at Tulsa. he is expected to speak
largely on political subjects. 1t is sup
posed his two speeches before the in
dustrial conventions will be largely
political.
The sentiment in Minnesota for the
Secretary is said to be very friendly
and it is said also that he will take
the delegates from that state without
a struggle. There is a very friendly
feeling for him in Iowa and likely
enough the Roosevelt men there will
deliver to him the large Iowa delega-
ton. The Secretary is going into Ne
braska and will visit Fort Mead be-
fore he reaches Ottawa, Kan, and it
is worth remembering that the senti-
ment for him in Nebraska is strong,
at least is strong for Roosevelt and is
presumably sufficiently Rooseveltian to
enable the President to deliver the
Nebraska delegates to whomever he
chooses.
Kansas would like to be the first
state in the Taft band wagon, accord
ing to reports now coming from there.
1t is known that the Secretary is to
speak in that state largely with the
hope that Kansas will soon be stam-
peding to get under his banner.
Before he is back in Washington the
Secretary may speak elsewhere along
the way, for his friends are anxious
to get him as much as possible In the
view of those enthusiastic westerners,
who are in favor OF nominating and
electing Presidents without regard to
the wishes of the effete east or OF
the money loving Republican Office
holders of the South. AS the Ohio
situation is not likely to make demands
upon his time, the Secretary will prob
ably be free to make more speeches
during the summer than would have
been the case otherwise. He will return
to Washington about July l and after
a short stay here will go on his vaca-
ton. Then he will start for the Phil
ippines On his tour across the coun-
try, en- route to Manila, the managers
of his campaign will have a chance to
bring him before other audiences, es-
pecially in the far west where his.
cause thus far has not been pressed.

He had made his bargain and must
pay his share. Weighing this, he had

object really sought for, his eyes had
come round TO the mantelpiece and
rested on the pipe rack. The pipes

He realized with bitter certainty
that his was no real home coming. On

Left alone In the sitting room after
Chilcote's departure. his first sensation
was one OF physical discomfort and
unfamiliarity. His own clothes, with
their worn looseness. brought no sense
OF fr.endlinoss such "a some men find
in an old garment. Lounging and the
clothes that suggested lounging had no
appeal for him. In his eyes the garb
that implies responsibility was sym
bolic and even inspiring.
