she:could hardly feed herself and her hand would knock things off the table She didn't speak to anyone, didn't play any nor take an interest in anything. She didn't seem to have any control of her tongue, the saliva ran out of her mouth and she complained of her neck hurting her and began to carry her head'to one side.
 THE CHARACTERISTIC SPASMs.
 Later she had spasms which lasted for perhaps an hour during which her head and eyes rolled about, she became pale and looked terrible. Following these spells she wouldn't notice any thing for day and would be very ner- vous from two or three days to a week. She became thin and awfully run down and l thought she never would get well.
 WHAT THE DOCTOR SAID.
 Our doctor said her nerves were completey run down and that she had St Vitus' dance. He didn't know whether she would recover from the disease and if she did he was not cer- tain that her mind would be right. His medicines failed to cure her and l was discouraged. A friend in Marion then told me about Dr Williams Pink Pills and I bought a box as was, willing to try anything that gave hope of a cure. In few days we could see difference and we gave her the pills regularly un- til they effected a cure. She is now going to school and is as healthy and bright child as one could wish to have. I cannot tell what Dr Williams Pink Pills have been worth to us and recommend them highly"
 OF INTEREST TO ALL NERVOUS
 PEOPLE.
 That Dr Williams Pink Pills have cured obstinate cases of St Vitus' dance, is the best evidence that they will cure lesser nervous disorders, be- cause the principle in the treatment of all nervous diseases is the same. Ner- vousness is a question of nutrition. Food for the nerves is what is needed and the best nerve food in the world is Dr Williams Pink Pills because they build up the blood and the only way to nonrish the nerves is through the blood. /

THE WARD CASE.

For about two years the town of Robxury has been more or less dis turbed by events and talk connected with Eugene Ward, who was tax col lector of the town from 1898 to, 1905. Since no account of this affair has ever yet been published it may do no harm to lay the facts before the pub lie and let it judge for itself in regard to 1t.
 Some time ago during 1906 it was claimed by one or two parties in Rox- bury that Eugene Ward had embedded about $l000 tax money belonging to the town. As soon as Mir Ward heard of this charge he went at once to the selectmen of the town and demanded that his tax books be audited for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not he had embedded any of the towns money. He also caused to be published in The Newtown Bee notice to the effect that if any one had discovered any mistakes in his or her tax bill such mistakes would be rectified at once if found. Since one ofthe Town Audi tors at the time was also MT Ward s bondsman the two parties who claimed he had embedded some of the towns money objected to this auditor taking any part in the examination of said books. The selectmen therefore en- ployed Frank Soule of New Milford, an outside party. to audit the books of MT Ward. As result of Nr Soule's ex- animation of said books he reported to the selectmen that there was a short age of about $4O0. One hundred dol lars of this shortage he found was no fault of MT Wards. On the other hand it was the fault of the selectmen in adding up the amount to be collect ed on one of MT Wards books. The total should have added up S6l00 in stead of S6000. The selectmen. MT Ward and everyone else concerned were totally ignorant of this mistake until Mir Soule discovered it. The other $500 of the so-called shortage was in realty no shortage at all. For instance. the law allows collector of taxes until from the1s to the 9th of the month suc- ceeding that in which he collects taxes before paying it to the town treasurer. MT Soule not knowing the fact at the time charged up against MT Ward in terest at the rate of 3 per cent on such taxes collected between the 1st and 5th of the month whereas no interest at all should have been charged up against him. Sometimes non-resldents failed to pay interest on their taxes for one, two, three and sometimes four months, when they sent checks for their taxes. To collect this interest would in many cases have cost more
 han the interest itself. MT Ward saw the selectmen several times in regard 1b these cases and they told him not

Remarkable Cure In
 An Indiana Town
SHOWING THE VALUE OF OF TONIC TREATMENT IN
 SEVERE NERVOUS CASES.
A WellEstablished Case of St Vitus' Dance Cured in aShort Time by
 Dr Williams Pink Pills.

Many child has been called awk- ward, has been punished in school for not keeping still or for dropping things, when the trouble was really chorea, or St Vitus' dance, as it is popularly called. So common is this nervous disease in childhood that in some schools one-fifth of all the pupils have been found suffering from it in one form or another.
 Before the presence of the disease is betrayed there is usually a disturbance of the general health. The child shows listlessness and inattention. Then it becomes restless and twitching of the muscles and jerking of the limbs and body follow.
 Often the patient loses flesh and be- comes pale and bloodiess. A remedy that cures St Vitus' dance, and cures it so thoroughly that no trace of the disease remains, is Dr Williams Pink Pills. The cures effected in such a se- were nervous disorder show the power of these pills in strengthening weak nerves through building up the blood, a principle of wide application in many forms of nervous trouble.
 A recent cure is that of the seven year-old daughter of MT and Mrs James E. Packard, of Swayzee, Ind. The facts in the case are known to every one in that little town where the fam. ily is well known. Mrs Packard's ac. count of her daughters suffering and o1 her recovery follows:
 "When not quite seven years old Nel. lie was taken with St Vitus' dance anc was sick for over five months. She hadalways been healthy and was nev. CT of nervous disposition and am at loss to explain the cause of her sick. ness. When quite young she had scar letina but had apparently entirely re- covered from it. She began to com plain during the early part of the win ter, before her sickness of chills and a numbness Tn her sides, but we thought nothing of it at the time: La ter her teacher told me that Nellie would drop off to sleep in school and that she did not disturb her for she thought sleep would do her more 'good than study and that we ought to take her out of school.
 LOST CONTROL OF HER MUSCLES.
 "She began to grow more nervous and then noticed that she staggered in walking but thought it was habit and tried to correct her but she did not improve. She got worse all the time and finally jerked all over. She got so

ITALIAN OPERA
 PLEASES AUDIENCE
Verdi's Greatest Composition Interpreted by Abramson's
 Company at Hyperion.

Before an audience composed of the admirers and devotees of music, but otherwise unrepresentative of New Haven, Verdl's great opera Aida was given by Ivan Abramson's ltal- ian Grand Opera company at the Hy- perion last night, The masterful opera. Nerdi's greatest if not his most popu- lar was interpreted with vigor and en- thusiasm by the very capable princl- pals of the company. The rendering fell short of the best grand opera only in the ensembles, the grand ehoruses and the pallets. The march and pa gentry, the oriental wealth of splendor and color of an Egyptian court was approached but not attained,
 The audience was apprecative and from the first appearance of Radames till the death hymn of the captain of the guards and Aida, 70, terra addio. " the rapt listeners followed the tragic story with growing interest and en- .thusiasm. The story itself, well known to all lovers of opera, of Radames, lov- ed of the Kings daughters, himself in love with a slave of the court, the daughter of the King of Ethiopia whom Radames has captured; of the jealousy of the Kings daughter for her slave lover, Aida; of the treason of Radames for the Sake of his beloved, the discovery of his trea- son and his condemnation by Amneris whose love he has scorned, and finally his death with Aida, buried alive in tho sepulchre; is so full of dramatic incident and tragic interest that it holds an audience without moments tedium. The martial music celebrat- Ing the victory and the martial strains, blending with the anguish ot Aida and the cruelty of Amneris in the second acts were especially cffec. tive.
 The scene between Aida, her father and her lover in the third act. always dramatic, was particularly strongly interpreted by Abramson's company last night While the scene between Amneris and Radames where he re. fuses pardon at the price of accepting her hand was full of soul and pas sion, leaving nothing to be desired The opera gained in power and in its hold upon the audience up to the very close, in the tragic and famous 70 terra addio."
