THE WOMAN WHO
IS PREPARED
With Rich Blood and Strong Nerves
Meets the Trying Times Of Life
With Safety and Ease.

To women who suffer when the age
Of forty, or thereabouts, is reached, DIR.
Williams Pink Pills give prompt and
permanent relief And, if taken as this
time Is approached, their tonic action
in purifying and building up the
blood strengthens the system SO that
this crisis in a woman's life may be
passed in safety and comparative ease.
The pills, therefore, are of special help
to women who are weak, run down and
nervous for in this condition the body
is not prepared to bear the added bur-
den put upon it during the change.
Through negecting to build up her
strength Mrs. L. II. Howard of No. 220
Wayne avenue, Dayton, Ohio, suffered
for three years. During this time She
was treated by doctors and tried many
medicines but found no relief until she
used DR.. Williams Pink Pills. Every
woman should profit by careful read
ing of Mrs. Howard's experience, which
follows
"When I was in my thirty-ninth year
I was more dead than alive, suffering
with weakness common to women Of
my age. + was confined to bed for the
greater part of nine months and was
sick altogether for nearly three years.
had sick headaches, pains in the back
and was listless, with no ambition to
work. My appetite was poor and my
stomach SO weak that food would fer
ment on it, causing it to turn sour
Then my head would ache and would
get so dizzy that I would vomit. My
hands and feet were cold, was ex-

blue My circulation was poor and
had fainting spells when it would be
necessary for me to lie down from
sheer weakness. I would ache all over
and my legs were weak and easily gave
out. I was so extremely nervous that
the least noise, like the slamming of
the door, made me worse. / was also
troubled q great deal with constipa-
ton.
II took medicine from. different doc
tors without relief and upon the advice
of friend tried DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. In a week or so | noticed u
change for the better and in a few
weeks more i was cured. ! am now in
good health and have gained in weight
and strength. | feel that my good
health Is due to DR. Williams Pink
Pills alone and hope I will be the
means of helping many other suffering
women back to health
Women will find in DR.. Williams
Pink Pills the tonic exactly suited to
their needs. Most of the ills with
which they suffer are due to bloodless-
ness-a condition which the pills read
lily correct.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are also
invaluable in rheumatism, after-effects
Of the grip and fevers, sick headaches,
stomach trouble, neuralgia and even in
partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.
The pills are sold by all druggists, or
will be sent. postpaid. on receipt Of

That it does not follow that the pre-
siding judge has expressed an opinion
upon the issue involved because his
opinion may be inferred from some al
lusion which he may make from some
obvious and indisputable fact, but in
this case the presiding judge explicitly
disclaimed any intention to express any
opinion as to the guilt or innocence OF
the defendant and instructed the jury
that if they thought they detected any
such expression of opinion, they would
entirely disregard it and act upon their
own independent judgment, and that a

At the trial of an indictment against

Groves was under arrest.

Held. That the fact of the accuscd's
flight. escape from custody, resistance
to arrest. roncealment. assumption of n
false name and similar conduct are ad-
nisSible as evidence of consciousness
of guilt and thus of guilt itself and
that under the circumstances of this
case, it was not error to permit the
officer who made the arrest to testify
that he found a loaded revolver in the
defendants overcoat pocket.
That inasmuch as the defendants
general reputation may have been bet

derstood in the community where the
witnesses lived and where they had
had numerous business dealings with

reputation for honesty was not regu-

Of the witnesses derived from specific
instances in his dealings with the de-
fendant and that the ruling which al
lowed the witness to state that he
found him honest and reliable was
more favorable to the defendant than
he was entitled to, and that the de-
