DEBILITY AND
RHEUMATISM
This Maine Woman Was Cured Of Both
By DIR. Williams Pink Pills and 10
Enthusiastic in Her Recon-
mendation Of The Remedy.

Whenever the blood becomes thin
and watcry or impure the whole system
suffers, energy il lacking, vitality is low
and the victim falls an easy prey TO any
disease which happens TO be prevalent.
To keep the system in normal condi-
ton, the appetite good, the step vigor-
Gus, the brain clear and the muscles
strong, a tonic il sometimes necessary.
With the body thus toned up and the
organs active there is a greatly reduced
danger from prevalent diseases since
the germs are overcome and passed off
as nature intended they should be.
The tonic used should be efiicacious
and at the same time safe and harm
less for the weakest constitution. Such
remedy is DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
The experience OF Mrs. James +.
Meynell, OF Sullivan, Me, with this
blood-making medicine is given in her
own words, as follows:
''My reason for recommending DR..
Williams Pink Pills 70 others is that
they saved me from "A long illness and
probably from consumption few years
ago. When teaching a country school
became so completely run down that
could not attend 20 my duties. My ap-
petite failed me and l became 80 weak
that it was with great difficulty that l
could walk upstairs. had palpitation
OF the heart and was short OF breath.
l also lost in weight
''The people with whom l boarded

i gave the remedy a trial and soon felt
my strength returning In ashort time
I was nerfactly we'll
about three years ago / again took
DIR. Williams Pink Pills. l had been
suffering from rheumatism for several
months The disease settled in the
joints all over my body. l could just

early fall. As the doctor did not help

no return OF the rheumatism since.

WOULD DROWN SELF IF SHE
COULDN'T GET RID OF BABY
Mother-Love Dead IN Woman Who
Leaves Infant in Mercy Hospital
For ADOPTION.

Mother-love was not very deep In
the heart of woman who called at
Mercy hospital, No. 439 Lafayette
blvd. last Saturday, and left her six
months-old baby girl for adoption. The
mother gave name and address on
Twelfth-st., but investigation revealed
that she had deceived the hospital au-
thorities.
There was absolutely no need for
the mother of the dear little baby to
misrepresent herself to u.s." said Mrs.
A. NJ Burr, matron and owner or the
hospital. 10 The Times. I'VE simply
wanted TO know her name and address
so that we could keep in touch with
her after the adoption OF her baby.
Most mothers, In fact, all we have had
anything u do with in the 35 years
history OF our hospital, which, by the
way, was founded by my mother, Mrs.
Sterling, have been only too anxious
to let us know where their babies
went for adoption.
THE woman who left her baby with
us on Saturday was, however, or a
different stamp. She, apparently,
didn't care what became OF her baby.
She seemed very anxious to get rid
of 1t: In fact, she said that If she had
not been able to leave 1t with us, she
would have ended her life by jumping
into the river. She explained that she
was trying to make a living at house
work. but that she found it impossible
to keep a position while In possession

who accompanied her. Both were
