A CHECK TO
RHEUMATISM
d.. Williams Pink Pills Build Up
the Blood and Overcome
the Rheumatic Poisons.

Rheumatism defes any treatment
that does not build up and purify
the blood. The poisons of rheumatism
are in the blood and it is only through
the blood that the disease can be fought
successfully.
Unless the blood is weak and impure,
rheumatism cannot get a foothold.
When it does the thin and impure
blood is not strong enough to overcome
the poisons alone. Unjust be strength
ened and purified. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are the best blood
building medicine you can take. They
make new blood with every dose and
promptly check further progress Of the
disease. They make the blood SO pure
and strong that not the least trace Of
rheumatism remains.
Mr.. A. Hamann, a farmer on r. F.
D. No. 2, Eldridge, Iowa, says:
81 used DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People for indigestion and rheu-
matism from which I suffered for over
six years. As these attacks came on
every spring, I think they were caused
by impure blood. The rheumatism
was always more severe in my ankles
and knees and especially in my arms,
when had been husking corn or work.
ing hard. The pains were so severe
that I could hardly sleep at night. I
used liniments Of many kinds, but they
didn't do more than. drive the pain to
some other part of the body and / did
not get any relief from the doctors
medicine.
"When I read about DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People in our weekly
paper made up my mind to try q
medicine that had actually cured some
one else. A few boxes cured me and I
think SO much of the pills that 1 keep
them in the house to use as tonic. My
wife finds them strengthening and we
think the pills are the best medicine for
the blood"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People are the bloods greatest aid in
overcoming rheumatism, headaches,
an@mia, chlorosis, and after-effects of
the grip and fevers.
A valuable booklet, "Diseases of the
Blood" will be sent upon request.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid,
on receipt of price, so cents per box;

| am now and have always been
in favor Of prohibiting the ship
ment of liquor into dry territory.
1t is true, shipments can be made
from other states, but why should
not Tennessee do all she can to re-
spect the wishes of each COM
munity on this question?
Am opposed to the whiskey in
terests or any other interests
financing our political campaigns,
believing this to be the source of
one of our greatest political evils.
l believe the platform in refer
ence to this, adopted by the last
Democratic gubernatorial conven-
ton of this state, took the correct
view of it when it said cit should
be treated purely as an economic
and moral question. Men in all
political parties differ widely as to
the means to be adopted and as to
the course to be pursued In ad-
vancing the cause of temperance.
1t is a question which must and
should be settled by the members
of the legislature and the voters
of this state in their election, and
it should not be an issue in a gu
bernatorial campaign
Except by leaving the matter to
the Legislature there is no other
constitutional method Of dealing
with this subject except by a dl-
rect vote Of the people on a con-
stitutional amendment. At any
time the legislature desires the
question in this form submitted to
a direct vote of the people it
would have my approval.

Tennessee | would exert all my
constitutional authority to enforce
all laws so long as they are on
the statute book.

PRESTON SHOWS STRENGTH
Almost Certain to Win the Nom
nation,

Since the announcement of Mr..
Thomas r. Preston Of Chatta-
nooga for the Democratic nomina-
ton for governor, the statement
has been repeatedly made that
he will carry Shelby county in
the August primary, while nat
urally his wide acquaintance IN
Hamilton and his extensive inter
ests there will give him big vote
from his home county. 1t is also
stated by the "wise ones" that
Mr.. Preston, having lived in Can
non county for several years, will
get big vote there. The argu-
ment is also made that Mr.. Pres
ton is not a politician, but a bus
mess man, and that he will get E
large following from the CONNER
cial interests of the state, partic-
ularly the manufacturers, with
whom he has been working to Sc
cure the repeal of the back tax
laws. There is no question but
that Mr.. Preston's entry has at
tracted more attention and caused
more comment over the state than
anything that has happened po-
litically for some months ..

Charles S. Mellen, president Of the New
Haven, demanded the right to appear
before the Federal grand jury, in a letter

S. Wise, in which he also assumed full
responsibility for the deal with the
Grand Trunk, and waived all immunity
from criminal prosecution.
District Attorney Wise pointed out that
II was impossible for any one to waive
immunity, which, under the Sherman law,
Is automatically conferred upon all who
testify before the grand jury, and that
"inasmuch as Mr.. Mellen makes it clear
that he is the only one culpable, IL any
body Is culpable, 1t is unlikely that he
will be permitted 10 testify
