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 il ON a strike;
that it ia 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 Ia
humored by the use of predigested foods
and artificial ferments, and the new one
by which the stomach Is toned up to do
the work which nature intended of it.
A recent cure by the tonic treatment is
that of Mrs. Mary Staokpole, of 81
Liberty street, Lowell, Mass. She says;
II suffered constantly for years from
stomach trouble and terrible backaches
and was confined to my bed the greater
part of three years. l was under the
care of our family physician most of tho
time, but did not seem to get better.
81 was completely rundown and was
not able to do my work about the house.
My blood was impure and my complex
ION pale. 1 suffered from flashes Of
heat, followed suddenly by ohills. I
had awful headaches, which lasted from
three to four days. Icould got but little
rest mt night, as my sleep was broken
and fitful. As n result I lost several
pounds in weight and became very ner-
vous.
"I was in wretched condition when
heard about DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
/ started to take the pills ut once and
began to gain in weight and health. /
was encouraged by this to keep on until
was cured. My friends and Heighbors
often remark what changed woman I
am and 1 owe it all to DIR. Williams
Pink Pills"
These wonderful pills are useful in a
wide range of diseases such as anHmia,
rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous
heaiaches, and even locomotor ataxia
ard partial paralysis.
The great value of DIR. 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 il
stimulated to do its work.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, ON receipt
of price, 90 cents per box, six boxes for
$3.50, by the DIR. Williams Medicine
Company, Schenectady, ". Y.

Striped materials are very much a

with silk--pekine is the French dress

things, but the reign of striped fab
rics extends through the whole list,
and fine woolen materials and silks
are likewise thus fashionably design
ed. Now, the stripe presents some
difficulties to the dressmaker. Well
arranged, nothing can be smartert-ill-
placed, nothing more dowdy-than a
striped fabric. The more broken-up the
design is, however. the fewer pitfalls
