CURED MOTHER

Hoodlessness and | Rundown Condidon Will Inevitably Bring Sufenns and Sorrow Unless
 Promptly Corrected.

The symptoms described in, the fol. lowing statement arc % common today wherever overwork and worry have resulted in . decline in health that the
 means by which ia cure was effected deserves the careful sttention of every thoughtful man and woman.
 Mrs B. c. Goodwin, of F. D. No. 2. Gardner, Mas, was cured of ansemia after she had bean sick for year. She
 n was in . terrible condition . few years ago suffering from anemia. was overworksd and run down bringing up my baby. lost color and strength and became co weak that my husband had-to help me around. Very often ] would get dizzy and seem to co floating specks before my eyes. I would wake up through the night and be @ numb all over that 1t seemed my blood would never start circulating again. Thia numbness would last for an hour. My digestion was poor and l could not breathe well
 "Ny doctor treated me for snemis but [ finally stopped taking his medi cine. heard of Dr. WiliiAms' Pink Pills and felt some better after had taken them only short time. But ] gave them long trial and gradually grew better and got 90 that I didn't need medicine any moro. My health is good now and I have had no serious sickness slnce.
 ..Later had greater reasons for being grateful for pr. Williams' Pink Pills. My little girl began to grow weak and seemed to have no strength. We tool her to two doctors, who examined hei lungs and heart and told us to take her from school We were afraid of con sumption as the doctor watched hei lungs SO closely. During her sickness we moved here and not wishing to try another doctor I began giving her Dr. Williams Pink Pills. She gained right away in strength and color, was able to resume her school work and is now in fine health"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills arc sold by all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid. on receipt of price, 50 cents per box; six boxes for 42 50. by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

WEICHER ON STAND
TELLS COURT THAT SCALES WE'RE
 FALSE.
Deputy Surveyor of Customs Parf is Witness-for Short T1me--Judge
 OverruIes Objections of Defence.

New York, Dec. 6.--Ramfffcations
 of the scheme through which the gov- ernment is alleged to have been de-
 frauded of millions of dollars in du- at the continuation of the trial of for
 mer employees of the American Sugar
 Refining Company. on charges of con-
 spiracy to defraud.
 Richard Parr, the deputy surveyor
 of customs. whose dramatic story of
 the raid on the sugar docks at Will llamsburg stands out as the salient examined by the defendants' attor-
 neys when the trial was resumed to- day.
 The cross-examination of Parr was
 brief and developed little of interest. Other witnesses testified to what seemed to them unwarranted varia- tions in the scales for some time pre- vious to the raid.
 Thomas M. Stenson, government weigher, testified that in June. 1906. he noticed that the weights were run ming lower than usual at scale at which Kehoe. one of the defendants was checking. He called Kehoe's at- tention to 1t and the weights, after the scales were balanced by the weigher. went at once up to normal 'Later in the afternoon" said Stem
 son. "Kehoe was relieved. saw him outside speaking to MT. Spiter. That evening I was ordered not to go back to the dock."S
 Had you reported to the custom
 house that you had trouble with the scales?
 "No. sir"
 Before he left the scale," said the witness, 'Kehoe asked me whether I
 had ever found anything wrong with
 any scales on the sugar docks. I said
 had not as yet but expected to | find something"
 The defense vigorously objected to
 any evidence of removals from the
 docks on Spitzer's interference. Judge
 Martin said that if 1t could be shown
 that objection to the scales weighers
 were removed through Spitzer's in- fiuence. 1t would tend to prove con- | spiracy.
 Robert Jones. former company em. pioye, who had worked under Spitzgel | and other of the defendants on. ths docks. transferred five men who looked after the government weights, knowr | about the office as the "Roly Pol, Gang" John R. Coyie. one of the de. fendants. was a member of this gang he said.
 We all knew on the docks" ths witness continued, that one of tho Roly Poly gang always checked ths | government weighers." Frederick B. Saunders, a negro em ploye in the government service, sta toned for eleven years on the sugai
 company's docks. testified that he hat | seen an electric light flashed as a sig nal and the scales hastily balanced by
 the company's employees when the GUS toms omcers would appear.

Ask Dis,nissal Of Case.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Before the Supreme Court of the United States tomorrow attorneys for the American Federation of Labor will ask to have dismissed the original anti-boycott in- now famous Bucks Stove and Range Company case. Samuel Gompers John Mitchell and Frank Morrison. the off, ficers of the federation who are now under a contempt of court sentence for violating the injunction are also parties to the appeal.
 This move, in short, puts it up to the Supreme Court of the United States to decide if the Amreican Fed eration of Labor boycott of the Bucks Stove and Range Company in its of- ficial organ, The Federationist, was a lawful procedure. The Court of Ap- peais of the District of Columbia, has held that it was not. and with some notifications has sustained Judge Gould's injunction.
 The Bucks Stove and Range Com pany has already filed an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States against the notifications. claiming the original injunction has been so altered as to be practically of nc use for the purpose for which It was sought. The American Feder- ation of Labor, now in It's appeal, will argue that no injunction should have been issued in the first court and asks for complete dismissal. Tn legal parlance this is called a cross ap- peal.

 - Court---Jurist Gives Rea- sen for Decis-


 Austin. Tex, Dec s.--Judge Cal- houn today overruied all exceptions offered by H. Clay Pierce in the pro- csedings against him charging false swearing. and ordered the trial to proceed.
 Tn giving his reason for his ruling in the case Judge Calhoun, stat cd that the exception offered to a woman notary taking the recognition Of the affidavit was not we'll taken by reason of the fact that the Con- stitution of Texas does not prohibit q woman from serving in that capac- ity: that the laws of Texas are en- tirely silent upon the subject and in consequence the contention has no re- cognition and is set aside by the court. As to whether the affidavit was properly prepared the judge rul- cd that 1t was inasmuch as 1t abso- lufely followed the legal formula.
 In regard to Pierce being guilty of perjury in the matter of swearing falsely, the court says that he did not consider the question has proper 1y reached him as yet. as the State has not had an opportunity of an- nouncement as to whether or not they propose trying Mir. Pierce for false swearing or for perjury, either of which they can do under the in- dfctment. When the State has de- cided the court will then pass upon the perjury prosecution. The de- fendants counsel took exception to the rulings of Judge Calhoun
 At the conclusion of the Judges ruling the attorneys for the State asked him to consult.
 Inasmuch as the State seeks to es- tablish the greater part of its case on the testimony submitted in Missouri. arguments are hinging around that problem at present. with lawyers on both sides prepared for many hours discussion as to the correctness of their respective positions.
 Petition for Pierce.
 Austin, Tex, Dec 6.-The attorneys for H. Clay Pierce are tonight prepar- ing c petition to Judge Wilcox. of the Twenty-sixth District Court. which will be presented tomorrow asking that he defer the sale of the Waters Pierce Company, set for tomorrow morning. until such e time as MT, Pierce or his representatives can be present.
 It Is outlined in the petition that Mir. Pierce. his attorney and friends are now closely confined on attendance on MT. Pferce's trial in the Fifty third District Court. and could not attend e sale of the property.
