LEAD PIPES PROVED SAFE.
Fears of Many GrinneIl Citizens Have
Been Allayed.

Been Allayed.
Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell, June 29-In connection with
the proposed improvements in this city,
the order went out from the city coun-
ell that all connections with the water
mains should be examined, and lead
connections made from the mains to
point within the curbing. With the well
known fact before their minds that the
pure and soft waters of the New Eng
land hills acted upon lead pipes for the
conveyance of drinking water had been
largely discarded there on that account,
strenuous objection to using slead for
this purpose here has been made. A
careful chemical analysis by Prof w.
s. Hendrixson, of the chemical depart
ment of Iowa College, and his printed
statement of the results, showing that
in one severe test. barely trace of
lead was found and in another not even
a trace, tended to allay the fears of
citizens. This feeling of safety from
any Interference with health by the use
of such pipes is now strengthened by
the exhibition at the office of the city
clerk of a section of lead pipe which
has been in use ever since the water
from the deep wells here has been in
family use, and which shows conclu-
sively that the mineral matter in the
Wafer forms a thin film on the lead
that prevents any direct contact of the
water with the lead thereafter, and
keeps the pipe from wearing as we'll as
from poisoning

TAKE A TONIC
FOR NEURALGIA
Highest Medical Authorities Agree
on Treatment for This
Painful Disease.
Neuralgia is Inflammation Of nerve

Neuralgia is Inflammation Of nerve.
This Inflammation is sometimes caused
by exposure TO cold, sometimes by the
tooth. OF all causes, however, ageneral
debility of the system is by far the most
frequent Authorities agree that the
proper treatment for neuralgia is to build
up the strength and health of the body.
A nourishing diet and tonic treatment
will accomplish this but external appli-
cations, as Of iniments, cannot. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are the most valu.
able tonic for the home treatment of
neuralgia, o fact proved by the follow
ing case recently reported.
Mrs. Martha Decker, of No. 561 St.
Paul avenue, Beloit, Wis, who has been
cured of neuralgia by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills, says:
II suffered with neuralgia ever since
I was young girl until l took DR..
Williams Pink Pills about five years
ago. Each year the attacks became more
obstinate to relieve and finally became
so bad that I had to give up entirely. /
suffered everything but death. l had
severe QUITTING pains through my head
and in my side. could hardly get
around for the pains pierced me like
needles. My flesh would occasionally
become swollen and I would then be in
perfect misery. Icould not sleepnor rest.
Ny blood was poor and lost in flesh.
1.-THE doctor pronounced my trouble
neuralgia. I took his medicine faith
fully for long time but my condition
grew worse instead Of better. Ireally
thought / would never get any relief.
decided to try Dr.. Williams PINK
Pills, when read in a paper how a
case of neuralgia had been cured by
their use. Soon after began taking
them could see achange for the better.
AS they were the only thing that had
relieved me continued using them and
was cured I would not be without
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and always
recommend them whenever hear any
one complaining
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on re-
ceipt of price, so cents per box; six boxes
