These pills were originally
a prescription used in the

drugs.
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills
are the remedy to use when
the blood is thin as in anemia;
or impure, as in rheumatism /;
or when the nerves are weak,
as in neuralgia; or lifeless, as
in partial paralysis; or when
the body as a whole is ill
nourished, as in general debil-
ity. They build up the blood,
strengthen the nerves and have
cured troubles Of women and
growing girls and many forms
of weakness. That hundreds

DR.. w. w. Orr the Great Southern
Evangelist Will Hold Services
the United Presbyter-
ian Church.
EVERYONE is INVITED
A Large Chorus Choir Has Been Sc
cured and There Will be Spec
ial Music at The
Meetings.

DR.. w. w. Orr, the great southern
evangelist, of Charlotte, N. c., will
conduct series of meetings at the
United Presbyterian church, corner
Ninth and Blandeau, beginning the
18th OF November and continuing
through December End.
DIR. Orr is recognized as one of the
leading Evangelists of the day, and
wherever he has been he has left an
imprint on the thousands of his hear
ers which will never be effaced. OF
splendid voice and presence and great
personal magnetism, he can grip and
hold an audience as can few other men
conspicuous in the religious life OF
the nation. Inspiring, convincing, the
speaker leaves nothing unsaid that
might have been said of the princi-
pies for which he stands. Many I'M
portant and valuable lessons are driy-
en- home with greater force than
through the ordinary sermon. No one
hears him without being made better
and happier. He has the true idea Of
life and speaks from his own heart
presenting the message of his master
with great power and sweetness.
The United Presbyterian church is
recognized as one of the strongest
factors in present day organized chris
tianity and it is indeed fortunate in
being able to secure the services of
such a man as DR.. Ora man whom
God seems to have specially prepared
for such time as this.
Splendid music will be rendered by
large chorus choir, and everything
will be done to make the meetings
worth while.
A cordial invitation is extended to
| the general public to be present at
each and every meeting. No one
should miss the opportunity of hear
ing man of such we'll known ability

humorous speech, was followed by
Chauncey Depew.
Depew began in his usual fecetious
manner and soon had the table in an
uproar
''The gentleman who has just pre-

thing. This afternoon as l was pacing
the quarter deck l met Mr. Clemens
and, rehearsing the speech l had pre-
pared, asked him what he thought OF
it. He replied that he thought it was
a very good speech. and now, to my
astonishment, he has just repeated
that speech word for word, and left
me in very unpleasant predicament.''
Of course everybody roared The
next morning as they were coming up
the harbor an Englishman approached
