BLOODLESS
PEOPLE
Hundreds Are Suffering from
Anaemia and Don't Know IL.
The Disease Approaches SteaIthIIy,
the Decline In Health is Gradual
and Unless the Tonic Treatment
Is Taken May End Fatally.

Nothing in medical science is more
direct and more reasonably certain than
the action of DR.. Williams Pink Pills in
cases of anBmia, a disease which is liter
ally condition approaching bloodless-
ness and which IL neglected, inevitably
results in decline and death. Anamia
is stealthy in approaching its victim and
often is we'll advanced before it is de-
tected. On this account it is necessary
to begin treatment as soon as the first
symptoms are noted.
Mrs. Elizabeth Barnett, of sos Ash
land avenue, Buffalo, N Y, was cured
by these pills. She says:
During the spring of three years ago
began to suffer with anemia. 1 was
overworked and did not rest nor derive
nourishment from my food. Every
thing ate felt heavy in my stomach,
gas formed on it and had no appetite.
My hands and feet were cold, was
troubled with dizzy spells and my lips
and cheeks turned white. had severe
backacheS at times and it was hard work
for me to bend or stoop over to pick up
anything. My sleep was restless, my
head ached great deal and grew quite
weak.
Il was sick about q year before be-
gan to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills
They soon helped me and l used them
until cured. My appetite became hearty
l grew strong and have since been
entirely we'll. We consider the pills the
best blood builder and tonic medicine to
be had"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the great
est builder of rich, new blood and they
have been curing an9mia and other
blood diseases for nearly generation,
during which time they have come to be
recognized as an invaluable household
remedy.
A valuable booklet, Diseases of the
Blood" containing fuller information
about anemia, rheumatism and other
diseases of the blood will be sent free
upon request.
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid,
on receipt Of price, so cents per box;
six boxes for 81. so, by the Dr. Williams

GRANITE STATE ORANGES.
Children's Day to Be Observed-State
Fair Association and the Grange.

State Master Hadley of New Hamp-
shire appointed Saturday, June -, as
Children's day, and it was generally
observed throughout the state. Mr..
Hadley's idea is that children should
assemble with adult members and par
ticipate In the exercises, particularly
along the line of nature study and agri-
cultural improvement. Thus the chill
dren will become interested in the
work of the Order and as soon as they
become of the prescribed age they will
be willing to become active Patrons.
The Grange State Fair association of
New Hampshire will again cooperate
with the Concord state fair, which will
exhibit at Concord on Sept. S-11. The
same liberal premiums will be offered
to members of the grange for indi-
vidual and collective exhibits. This
cooperation Of the grange with agri-
cultural societies of the state Is most
commendable and worthy of adoption

GRANGE FIELD DAYS.
Some Hints on Speechmaking al
Grange Picnics.
Especial Correspondence


Especial Correspondence
We have very emphatic notions
about the value of grange picnics and
field days, Just now at hand. Perhaps
we should say "some grange picnics,"
because these occasions are just what
we make them, and they are not all
alike. Primarily they were intended
to be social gatherings, but little of
the intellectual may well go with the
social
1t Is customary to have speeches on
these field day occasions, but our no
ton is that it Is decidedly better to
have two or three short, spicy, interest
ing talks" than to have one long,
tedious Speech" however able and In
terestlng it may be. There can he sin
struction" in a talk or an informal ad-
dress, and 1t doesn't need many words
to impress valuable thoughts on an
audience that Is listening eagerly and
attentively.
No speech made before n mixed au-
dience of grangers and nongrangers
should ever close without presenting
some feature or features of grange
work or public policy such as will in
form those who are not members of
the order as to what grange principles
and policies are along the lines under
discussion, and it may well close with
an appeal to such farmers and farm
ers' wives to identify themselves with
the only farmers organization that Is
unselfishly seeking the farmers good
and the advancement Of his agricul
tural and home interests. A clear,
succinct statement of what the grange
has accomplished for the farmer in
legislation may we'll occupy the speech
for few moments, but what the
grange is doing today and proposes to
do tomorrow and next day to improve
conditions ON the farm and to make
farming more remunerative should oc-
cupy the larger portion Of the address.
Let US not live In the past but In the
active present. Let us not boast so
much of what the grange has done as
to tell of what it proposes to do-in
fact, Is doing-and so inspire others
with the thought that they, too, should
join forces with the vast army fighting
the farmers battles IN the state and
nation. J. w. D.
