he was surrounded by his family and
was possessed of consciousness to he
very last. His death comes as an un-
expected blow to friends ali over the
county, to many indeed the news OF his
illness had not reached until after the
funeral had bean held For fifty four
years Matthew Mcknight had lived

that he had gone forever from his earth
ly surrounding came as a terrible shock.

 Frequeutly Been Cured by @ the Tonic Treatment.

SciaticA is nsurAlgia of the sciatic nerve. Its origin is generally rheumatic and is the direct result of taking cold. For this reason the disease is commonly known as ..sciatic Rheumatism.
 Lack of blood is almost always associ- ated with neurSlgia One medical authority has defined neuralgia as "the cry of the nerves for better blood. 7 This is true because the nerves receive their nourishment through the blood. Build up tho blood, the impoverished nerves krs fed and the neuralgia pains disappeax.
 Absolute rest is the best aid to proper medical treatment. Rest and Dr. VII liams' Pink Pills will cure most oases. : Altar year. of suffering, MT. Fred O.

 Sciatica is stubborn in resisting troat- ment and the patient frequently suffers for years. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do not simply relieve pain but they cure diseases caused by depraved or vitiated blood. They actually make new blood and have therefore . direct and power. ful curative effect on such diseases as rheumatism, anHmia, general debility and after-effects of the grip.
