IF YOU NEED
/ STRENGTH
Then Try the Tonic Recon-
/ mended by This Franklin,
8 Maine. Woman.

r When the blood becomes thin, as dur
ing convalescence from the grip or acute
feYers, all of the organs and tissues OF
the body suffer from lack Of nourish-
ment, for it is the blood that is con-
stantly carrying to every part of the
human system the materials with which
to repair the waste that is going on
throughout life. Naturally the weak
est organ is the first to show the result
of this blood starvation and any inner
tied tendency to disease is then likely to
develop. Whatever it may be, II the
trouble is caused by lack Of blood it
must be corrected by building up the
blood.
The cure Of Mrs. Albert Mclaughlin,
Of Franklin, Maine, shows the value OF
tho tonic treatment with DR.. Williams
Pink Pills in all diseases due to impure
blood. She says:
''When I was about ten years old
had scarlet fever and was sick from its
after-effects until my seventeenth year.
Every month I would be SO sick for a
day or so that would have to lie down.
IwOuid be dizzy and have awful head.
aches. It seemed that my head ached
all over. I would also be sick to my
stomach during these spells. was
always nervous and was easily excited.
II was treated by different doctors
and was told that my sickness was due
to impurities in the blood. They did
not help me much and tried several
medicines. Finally I tried DR.. Viii.
liams' Pink Pills which friend recon.
mended to me. After taking them a
while noticed that my appetite was a
lot better and that had no more sick
spells. I took several boxes and have
been well and strong since"
Nature needs some help in most cases
in fighting disease and the tonic treat
ment with DR.. Williams Pink Pills is
the most efficient that can be given.
They contain no stimulant, opiate OF
narcotic and cannot injure the most
delicate constitution. Our booklet
Diseases of the Blood" will be sent
free upon request. If you are suffering
from impoverished blood you. cannot
afford to wait another Dly before giving
DR.. Williams Pink Pills trial.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on re.
ceipt of price, SOC. per box; six boxes

NAVAL RED TAPE.
The Result Of Having Neither coffins
MOI Graves In Stock.


A case once occurred. which is
vOuchsafed for by naval officers who
were present and who tell of ii as Il
joke showing the absurdities to which
red tape can go. About twenty year.
ago a certain ship was in q foreign
port. One OF the men was taken sick
and on the recommendation Of the sur.
geon was sent to hospital on shore
The man finally died. and it became
necessary to bury him.
The simple and straightforward
method would have been TO call in au
undertaken and have him arrange fol
a decent casket and lot In the Gem,
etery. This would be the usual proce
dure with a business man or ordinar!
citizen. The regime Of economy au0
reform, however, would not permit OF
so simple a course. What actually oc.
CURED was this:
The surgeon made reQuiSition OF
the paymaster for one coffin. Natu
rally he did not have one I'm stock and
therefore 1t was forwared to the fleet
paymaster, who also. not being In the
undertaking business, had no cotIin>
on hand. Then the admiral directed
the feet paymaSter to purchase one
coffin after obtaining prices from six
reputable dealers. The same course
had to be followed IN securing Ia,
grave. The surgeon made requisitior
on the paymaster for one grave
Strange as it may seem. the paymas.
ter had no graves in stock. Neither
had the fleet paymaster. Consequently
the commander In chief directed the
feet paymaster to procure bids from
six reliable dealers In graves and pur.
chase one from the lowest responsible
bidder.
All this. Of course, is a screaming
farce, but It is the horrible example
to show what comes when common
sense and experience are set aside to
give room for the play of amateur and
academic fancy.-Engineering.
