HONEST MEDICINE
TRY DR.. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS
FOR STOMACH TROUBLE.
Convincing Evidence Supported by a
Guarantee That Must Convince
The Most SkenticaL.

DR.. Williams Pink Pills are doctors
prescription, used by an eminent prac-
titioner, and for nearly generation
known as a reliable household remedy
throughout the United States. Need
less to say, no advertised medicine could
retain popular favor for SO long period
without having great merit and it is the
invaluable curative properties of the pills
that have made them a standard remedy
in every civilized country in the world.
Added to this is the absolute guarantee
that the pills contain no harmful drug,
opiate, narcotic or stimulant. A recent
evidence of their efficacy is found in the
statement of Mrs. N. B. Whitley, of
Boxley, Ark, who says:
81 had suffered for a good many years
from stomach trouble. For long time
was subject to bad spells of faintness
and lack of breath accompanied by an
indescribable feeling that seemed to
start in my stomach. Whenever was
q little rundown or over-tired, these
spells would come on. They occurred
frequently but did not last very long.
81 was confined to my bed for ten
weeks one time and the doctor pro-
uOuuSSd my ClOuD1o CllIOu1C 1Illlctull1ld-
ton of the stomach and bowels. Since
that time 1 have been subject to the
Painting spells and at other times to flut-
tering of the heart and feeling as
though was smothering My general
health was very bad and was weak and
trembling.
81 had seen DR.. Williams Pink Pills
mentioned in the newspapers and de-
cided to try them. When I began taking
the pills was so rundown in strength
that could hardly do any homework.
Now could walk ten miles if necessary.
Both my husband and myself think DR..
Williams Pink Pills the best medicine
made and we always recommend the
pills to our friends
DR.. Williams Pink Pills actually make
new blood and give strength and tone to
every part of the body. They have
cured serious disorders of the blood and
nerves, such as rheumatism, sciatica,
anRmia, nervousness, headaches, partial
paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus'
dance and many forms of weakness in
either sex. They are sold by all drug
gists or will be sent, postpaid, on receipt

Two-cENT FARE FOR ALL.
Roads Give Des Moines Agents I'M
portant Notification.


Des Moines.-Des Moines railway
passenger agents have been unofIi-
cially notified that the roads will re.
wise their tariffs so that the new
Iowa 2-cent rate law will apply to in.
terstate as we'll as state business.
There has been much interest as
to the probable attitude of the roads
on this qGastion, and the information
received by local agents, while not
final, is considered definite
When Ohio enacted the 2-cent fare
law few years ago, the railways
first attempted to fight it by refusing
to make it apply to other than state
business, the interstate tariffs being
figured on the old schedule of 3 cents
per mile. The rule caused the rail
ways endless trouble, and finally they
decided to relent and revised their
interstate passenger schedules to con
form with the 2-cent rate in Ohio.
Local passenger agents declare
that the 2-cent rate will undoubtedly
result in diminishing the number of
local excursions. Special trains will
be run if the crowds warrant it, but
the 2-cent rate will be adhered to-
There is now serious doubt as to
whether the roads will make rates
for the annual Iowa state fair. Last
year they made one fare rate for
the round trip, Or 3 cents a mile
This year, if they insist on the
straight 2-cent rate, it will be cents
per mile. By making it fare and
half the round trip rate could be-
made 3 cents per mile, the same as
last year, but some of the roads ere
opposed to doing this.
