A CHECK TO

DR.. Williams Pink Pills Build Up

Rheumatism deiics any treatment
that does not build up and purify
the blood. The poisons of rheumatism
are in the blood and IL il only through
the blood that the disease can be fought
successfully.
Unless the blood is weak and impure,
rheumatism cannot get foothold.
When il does the thin and impure
blood is not strong enough TO overcome
the poisons alone. ltmust be strength

Pills for Pale People are the best blood

make new blood with every dose and
promptly check further progress OF the
disease. They make the blood 20 pure

OF Interest to Farmers.

The New England Fire Insurance
Exchange has recently made pIomul-
cation in reference to gasolene engines
that is OF considerable interest TO the
public. Heretofore there has been no
charge for d gaselene engine on the
permitted list Of the national board in
stalled according to exchange rules.
These rules called for a supply tank
outside OF the building and lower than
the engine so that the supply must be
brought in by pump. Under the rules
none OF the small gasolene engines
with gasolene in the base We're permit
led and on all unpcnnitted engines a
charge made for their use which was
practically prohibitory Farmers. sum
mer people and others have, in recent
years, been to quite an extent putting
steel pressure tanks into the cellar,
water and air being PUMPED in with a
gasolene engine thus furnishing a va
ter pressure sufficient to supply the
household and farm purposes also
furnishing sufficient pressure to
throw stream over the house and
thus aifording considerable fire protec-
ton.
The difficulty has been that the kind
of engine necessary to use in the cell
lar was not on the boards permitted
list and consequently there has been
considerable difficulty in arranging
with the insurance companies for their
use. The New England Insurance Ex-
change recognizing the value of the
water supply in the steel pressure tank
system, have now promulgated a per-
mission for the use of gasoline en-
gines where the capacity of a supply
tank does not exceed FIVE gallons,
without charge.
