"A cure Of unusual interest and i'm.

gan, of Correctionville, Iowa. After
being hopeless sufferer from sick
headaches, she is now entirely free
from attacks. She tells of her cure
by DR.. Williams Pink Pills, as follows:
Some years ago was in a terribly
nervous and rundown condition and
suffered greatly from nervous head.
aches. I was treated for three months
by specialist in Chicago, who advised
me to wear glasses, but he did not
help me. My head seemed as though it
would burst, and / had frequent dizzy
spells. was in despair of getting
we'll until I read about DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and began
taking them. A few boxes cured mo
and since then I have used them as a
family medicine.
Before the birth of my last child
suffered untold agony with pain and
numbness in my hands and arms up to
the shoulders. My hands were SO
swollen and the muscles SO sore that
could hardly dress myself. For time
I could not close my left hand. During
the day if ! kept moving the pain did
not seem to be so bad, but my hands
were always numb. / again used DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
and found them good for this trouble
also, as they entirely relieved me"
Unless properly treated sick head
ache is a disease of many years dura-
ton, as it occurs before the twentieth
year in two-thirds of the cases and re-
ours with more or less regularity until
the fiftieth year or later. It is usually
hereditary and is probably directly
caused by a defect in the process
which changes the food we eat into
blood. Most sufferers are troubled
with obstinate constipation which
makes it necessary to use laxative.
An ideal combination treatment is

DRINKING NO
JUSTIFICATION
FOR WIFE BEATING

Judge Churchman in City Court
today during the hearing Of Joseph
Jagoginski on the charge of wife beat
ing, declared he would not allow
Anthony, a son, of the defendant, to
testify as TO the habits of his mother
as he had not witnessed the trou-
bic in the house last Saturday. Fur
thermore Judge Churchman thought
such a course would not be fair to
the father
The defendant was represented by
Philip L. Garrett, who contended that
the trouble was due to the woman
drinking. Judge Churchman said
this did not justify the man in beat
ing his wife and he held Joseph
under $500 bail for the court of gem
eral sessions. The couple have six
children.
Walter Jackson, colored was fined
81 and costs on the charge Of disor-
derly conduct The trouble occurred
in Walnut street last March.

THE
RECALL In
new CHARTER
Referendum League Thinks
Provision Should Go Into
the Proposed Bill
CITIZENS DISCUSS
THE INSTRUMENT

Following a lengthy discussion in
pythian ffan last evening the Re
ferendum League accepted the report
OF the committe appointed FIVE months
ago 10 prepare a draft Of a proposed
new City Charter and the draft was
referred back to the committee for a
few minor corrections after which Il
will be given to the public through
the newspapers
The meeting was we'll attended
and Francis 1. DUPONT presided. The
first business considered was the re-
signeuon OF John f. Thomas, the Sec
retary and this was accepted after
a vote OF thanks had been given him.
W Frank Knowles, a nephew of ".
W. Knowles, was elected secretary.
Members of the League considered
the charter draft at length. and Mr.
dupont stated that the committed had
a difference OF opinion on several
points One of these was as to the
election of the five commissioners
and the members voted that they
should be elected biennially instead
Of annually. This will mean
change in the draft to provide for the
recal. and the eX-oiliciO comissiOn-
ers viii have to make application for
reelection The same as others The
charter as proposed provides for the
introduction OF a general enabling
act in the State Legislature and then
on its adoption the various cities and
towns in the State can petition for a
commission form Of government, 70
be adopted if the citizens OF such city
or town vote I'm favor OF it,
Louis Kramer advocated the eiec-
tion of one commissioner as Mayor
who would have the power to appoint
the four commissioners. This he
continued would give the city a busi-
ness government MIR DUPONT stated
that he thought the best plan would
be to have fifteen councilmen elect
I'd by popular representation and for
them 70 employ the commissioners
as business managers. The Council
reu would serve without pay This
plan was nOt thought feasible for this
city, however
A synopsis or the proposed charter
