PALE, WEAK PEOPLE
MADE STRONG AND ENERGETIC BY DIR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
General Breakdown Caused by Defi- cient Blood Quickly Corrected by
 This Tonic Remedy.

A feeling of general weakness, poor appetite, loss of breath after the slight- est exercise and broken sleep are some of the symptoms of general debility. You may think that they have no relation to each other and that you will worry along, hoping all the time to feel better soon. This is mistake, for every one of the symptoms is caused by bad blood, which must be made pure and new before health will be restored again. A tonic treatment is necessary and for this purpose there is no better remedy than Dr. Williams Pink Pills.
 MT. J. G. Hayey, of 95 Willow St., Chelsea, Mass, says: q was sick for number of years from general debility and indigestion. was never free from stomach trouble and my nerves were so shattered that the least excitement un- fitted me for any serious work. My sleep WAS restless on account of terrible pains in the small of my back. These pains would sometimes last for month or two. Mysight grew weak, there seem- ing to be 8 blur constantly before my eyes. l couldn't concentrate my mind on my work, and the attempt to do so completely exhausted me.
 MS llliilly lOTCeu tO give up position I had held for twenty-eight years. After trying several medicines without help, read of Dr. Williams Pink Pills and gave them trial. They made me feel so much better and so much stronger that started in business for myself here in Chelsea. I have never had return of my former sick ness and cheerfully recommend Dr. Will. iams' Pink Pills as an excellent nerve and blood tonic.''
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills have long been recognized as an excellent tonic remedy in cases of indigestion and gen. eral debility, where the stomach and other organs of the body are weakened and disordered simply through lack of proper nourishment. They have also been especially successful in curing anaEnia, rheumatism, after effects of the grip and levers.
 A pamphlet on Diseases of the Blood ' and copy of our diet book will be sent free on request to anyone inter- ested.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

Paid Under Protest.

The Southern Cotton Oil CT mpany, which paid it's fees under the Wingo act to the secretary of state recently, did so under protest, claiming that it should not be required to pay fees on the basis of it's capital stock, but only on the amount of capital employ ed and used in the state of Arkansas. This company has an actual capital of $10,000,000, with an authorized cap employed in Arkansas capital to the amount of $299, ,653, and if required to pay on this amount of stock it's fees would be only $125, whereas it was $2,S00, the payment of which was ac- companied by a protest. While she company believes this fee cannot be legally collected, it paid the sum de- handed by the secretary of state, but giving no intimation that it would con- test the legality of the act. The Con solidated Handle Company, a Dele ware corporation, was of the same opinion, but instead of paying the fees, under protest, filed a certificate with the secretary of state notifying that official that it had withdrawn from Arkansas. In letter to the secretary of state, the company states that il paid $275 at the beginning of the year for the privilege of operating a small mill in Arkansas, and that this repre- scented one-hundredth of it's total busi- ress. On account of the small inter- est of the company in the state, it preferred to cease doing business in Arkansas,

DR. TALKS OF FOOD
Pres. of Board of Health.

What shall I eat?" is the daily in- quiry the physician is met with. I do not hesitate to say that in my judg ment, large percentage of disease is caused by poorly selected and improp erly prepared food. My personal ex- perience with the fully-cooked food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to speak freely of it's merits.
 From overwork, suffered several yea with malnutriton, palpitation of the heart, and loss of sleep. Last summer I was led to experiment per- sonally with the new food, which used in conjunction. with good rich cows milk. In a short time after commenced it's use, the disagreeable symptoms disappeared, my hearts ac- ton became steady and normal, the functions of the stomach were proper ly carried out and I again slept as soundly and as well as in my youth.
 q look upon Grape-Nuts as a per feet food, and no one can gainsay but that it has most prominent place in a rational, scientific system of feeding. Any one who uses this food will soon be convinced of the soundness of the principle upon which it is manufac- tured and may thereby know the facts as to it's true worth" Read, "The Road to Melville" in pkgs.

Ore RedeenlSl Feature.

A youthful New York artist recently invited a friend to dinner in her stu dio. As the bachelor maids skill was greater in mixing colors than in ca tering to grosser tastes, the dinner was something to gnash ones teeth at and upon. The roast chicken was tough, the potatoes were underdone, the pineapple salad was pithy In an guish of mind, the young hostess sank to the depths of apologizing.
 The dinner was delightful, assure you" said her guest, charming wom- on who would cheerfully have perish ed at the stake rather than utter a tactless word: q have rarely tasted such tender gravy"

THE NEW INSURANCE AGENT.
He Comes in With the New LaW-Paui
 Morton on His Opportunity.DQ

The new insurance law of the State of New York has opened up a promis- ing field for toth men and women with brains and energy in the sale of life insurance. The law now provides standard forms of policies, each of which practically bears the hall mark of the State of New York, and this new order of things has established the sale of life insurance on a correct basis
 The prohibition against relating and extravagant allowances to agents has driven out of the business the old type of insurance agent, who in many cases virtually bought business, with large rebates, instead of selling it. His place is being taken by profess sors, lawyers, school teachers of both sexes, and others, who find that being a life insurance agent under the new system offers greater reward than their previous vacations. The law has reduced commissions but all of the commission now goes to the agent. Life insurance is something that everyone needs and under the pres ent system it's sale is being conducted with becoming dignity and propriety
 Paul Morton, president of the Equita- ble Life Assurance Society, has taken the lead in building up an agency or ganization that is in keeping with the demands of public sentiment, and the standard he has set for his company He says: We want new agents, both men and women, but none except en- ergetic, able and truthful people need apply For such there is splendid opportunity
 MT. Morton's policy of injecting new and vigorous blood into the agency force of the Society is meeting with success in all parts of the country.

During the severe weather in Janu- ary the young queen of Spain ordered that the number of rations given to the poor at her expense be doubled. At the beginning of the winter she gave orders for 1000 rations day, so that now from her own private income she is paying for 1000 rations daily Judged by the American standard, the queen of Spain does not belong to the class of the extremely rich. There are at least 90 American women between the age of 20 and 30 who have private incomes greater than that enjoyed by her majesty.

Care Of the Asparagus Bed After Cut.
 ki1n


 Cutting of the asparagus shoots should not be done after the middle of June in the northern states and should cease a little earlier in states of more southern latitude.
 At this time the whole bed, rows and all, should be thoroughly culti- yated fully three inches deep. Pre- yious to this the application of barn. yard manure is advocated by some growers, but some of our most noted experiment stations and most exten- sive growers of the product near New York city and Philadelphia strongly recommend the application of com- plete commercial fertilizers instead, with summer applications of nitrate of soda. 160 lbs. per acre of this lat ter is sufficient and should be applied twice during the growing months.
 It is claimed that manure contains the seeds of noxious weeds which ma ture and scatter before the aspara- gus tops are matured sufficiently for moving.
 As the asparagus crop is gathered from the early shoots and these are removed continuously for about two months, therefore the roots are very much reduced in vitality when the cut ting season is over, and unless plant foods, which are directly available are supplied, there will be poor growth of top. If the tops grow rapidly and strong, they aid in storing up food in their roots.
 A fertilizer well adapted to the needs of asparagus contains
 Nitrogen ............... 41o
 Available Phosphoric acid. S9o
 Actual Potash ....... .109o
 One-half ton of this to the acre is not too much, either applied broad cast or along the rows, before the cul- tivating is done.
 Both nitrogen and potash in con siderable amounts are necessary, or the shoots will lack both fine flavor and crispness. E. A. SEASON.

James Fitzgerald, judge of the su. preme court of New York, who pre- sided at the Thaw trial, was born in Ireland in 1851 An intimate friend says of him: His keynote is force. There is force in his straight stare, his firm-set jaw and even in the in sistent bristle of his clipped mustache And yet his gentleness-that certain adjunct of all true jsstice-has more than once moved the admiration of the spectators of the late nervewreck ing drama, and the women of the trial had reason many times to be thank full for his native courtesy.

about the growing boy. While he is
