day of the late DR.. Nicholas Sem, the
celebrated surgeon:
81 studied under DR.. Sem when ne
was professor Of surgery at Rush Med
ical college. 1 remember how, one day
he asked me a question that l could
not answer. and, in order to hide my
ignorance, I gave an ambiguous an
swer.
Or. Sem smiled
"He said I reminded him OF a scnool
boy who, taking a written exam1na-
ton in history, came to the ques-
ton:
"Which was the greatest general
Caesar or Hannibal?'
"The boy answered this question as
follows:
eff we consider who Caesar and
Hannibal were, and ask ourselves
which of them was the greater. we must
unhesitatingly answer in the aftirma-
five"

Mrs. Henry Sundell, of this city, ac-

which collided out of New York harbor
Thursday afternoon with the steamer
Monterey, outward bound for Havana.
Mr.. Sundell read the story in the T.-R.
at about 6 o'clock Thursday evening,
and his feelings can we'll be imagined.
Mr. Sundell Immediately got busy
on the wires, and sent a message to
the steamship companys New York Of
fees. He received a reply this morn
ing to the effect that no one was in
jured.
Mrs. Sundell was a passenger on the
Scandinavian liner, which was bound
for Copenhagen, with 500 passengers
on board. She is going to her old
home in Sweden, for a few months
visit with relatives.
Mr.. Sundelrs mind was greatly re-
lieved when he received the telegram.
The Associated Press report today says
all passengers will be returned to New
York this afternoon, as the vessel is
still hard aground.

WOMEN AT FORTY
OF PRESERVING
THE HEALTH AT THAT TIME.
Proof of One Case in Which a Weak
Nervous and Discouraged Woman
Was Marvelously Helped by the
Tonic Treatment.

Women opprach their fortieth year
with worry and uncertainty, for the
manner in which they pass that crisis
determines the health of their after
life. During this most important time
in the life of a woman, her whole aim
should be to build up and strengthen
mands upon it. Devotion to family
hard work and household cares and
worries should be avoided as far as
possible. Whether she is able to do
this or not, no woman should fail to
take the tonic treatment if she is en-
tering this critical period in a weak,
rundown nervous condition.
Mrs. Martha Dennis, of S23 West
Cedar street, Kalamazoo, Mich, who
owes her health to this treatment,
says:
II suffered for a year with weakness,
enduring pains which almost made me
frantic. My kidneys We're weak, had
pains in my loins and back and could
hardly stoop over or lift anything. My
liver was torpid and my complexion
and the whites of my eyes yellow. had
palpitation of the heart, my limbs
ached and I had severe headaches.
was troubled with chills, followed by
fevers. and would have to go to bed.
l could not rest at night and was I'M
able to remember anything. I was
weak, irritable, nervous and discour-
aged.
"After several months. Of suffering
was advised by a friend to try DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills and the benefit I re-
ceived from the first few boxes was
remarkable. was cured much sooner
than I had hoped and have been in good
health ever SINCE
Drowsiness, a feeling of l1eaviness,
pain in the front of the head, nausea
and even vomiting. dizziness. faintness,
hot flashes followed by chills and pro-
fuse perspiration are some of the signs
that indicate the need of tonic treat
ment as the change approaches. If this
is your condition you should not wait
another day before giving DR.. Williams
Pink Pills trial. Our booklet "Plain
Talks to Women" is free on request.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent by mail, post
paid, on receipt Of price so cents per
box; six boxes for $3.50. by the DIR.
