INDIGESTION
FOLLOWS GRIP
Supervisor Brown Suffered for Two
Years But DR.. Williams Pink
Pills Cured Him.

DR.. Williams Pink Pills have proved
in hundreds of cases that they are ad.
mirably suited to correct the disorders
that follow an atttck of grip and to
restore the debilitated and depressed
patient to health and spirits. They
are also invaluable in the treatment of
stomach trouble, especially in cases OF
weakened digestion, acidity and flatu-
lence or gas On the stomach. 1t fol-
lows that when the after-effect of grin
takes the form of stomach trouble DR..
Williams Pink Pills are particularly
adapted to effect cure.
Mr.. Robert Brown, whose address is
r. F. D. No g., Cass City, Mich, and
who is a prominent farmer and super
visor OF the town Of Novesta, and a
member of the Ancient Order of
Cleaners, says:
'One Sunday night a little over two
years ago, l was taken suddenly with
vomiting and terrible pains in my
stomach and bowels. l was complete
ly run down At the time through over
work and the effects of an attack of
the grip. My wife thought 1 was GO
ing TO die and sent for a doctor. He
gave me some medicine and advised a
liquid diet. On the following Wednes-
day l had another attack and was in
such agony that the doctor gave me
something to deaden the pain.
Il suffered a great deal for the next
two years and was under the care of
two doctors for the greater part of the
time. One called my trouble acute in
n trnc
was s<, weak that l was often in bed
for several days at time Sometimes
I felt strong enough to get up, but not
to work.
1.-THE doctors medicine didn't help
me. I was Respondent and had about
given up hope of a cure. Some of my
friends Kept urging me SO strongly to
take DR.. Williams Pink Pills, that !
finally consented.
THE first box made me more hope
full than l had been since l was taken
sick. l began to sleep better eat
hearty and was able to work in few
weeks. I was cured and have felt
well and strong ever since"
If you have stomach trouble begin
today to cure yourself. Take the first
step now by sending a postal card re-
quest to the DR.. Williams Medicine
Co, Schenectady, n. Y, for 4 free
diet book. Then get g. box of DR.
Williams Pink Pills from the nearest
druggist ard follow directions closely.
Or you can get the pills by mail, post
paid. at so cents per box; six boxes
for $3.50.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills not only
cure stomach trouble but are general
tonic and are useful in all diseases
arising from poor blood or weakened
nerves, such as sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, the
after-efiects of the grip, palpitation
of the heart. pale and sailow complex
ions and many forms of weakness.

THE COMING FOOD FAIR
Will Offer Very Attractive Program
In Augusta.

The program which will be offered at
the coming National Traders Pure
Food and Mechanics Fair to be held
in Augusta, beginning on the evening
of Feb. rs and continuing afternoon
and evening to and including Feb. %
is certainly a very attractive one.
There does not appear any reason why
1t should not meet with the same
marked measure of success in this city
that attended it in Portland, Lewis
ton, and Bangor where it called out
very large crowds. and was very gen.
orally commended in the highest terms.
Delmar, an exceptionally clever
magician will give one of his mysti-
flying performances each afternoon and
evening. The famous trick pony-the
children's friend-will also entertain
young and old with his intelligent per-
formances. There will be a Georgian
barbecue one evening at which a small
pig Will be roasted, and served with
not cake and apple sauce. One night
will be set apart as amateur night, at
which cash prizes will be competed
for by local talent. One afternoon will
be given over to an old-fashioned baby
show. Band concerts will be given
every evening. There will be a Scotch
tea on another afternoon, and barrel
of -four will be given the lady who
makes the most words out of the let
tiers in the three words Mammoth
Food Fair" Every lady attending the
fair will be presented with 100 page
cook book, and free samples of food
products will be given out. A number
of leading local firms, in addition to
many outside manufacturers and out
siders will have exhibits which will be
in themselves we'll worth the small
price of admission, 10 cents for the af-
ternoons and IS cents for the evenings.
