YOUR head AKp STOMACH

Headache caused by disturbed diges-
ton is nearly always accompanied by
pain in the stomach, belching of gas,
vomiting and often by constipation. This
sort of headache is generally located in
the forehead and is not constant but
comes and goes.
1t does not come on Immediately after
eating but after the food has had time %
ferment which il does because the diges-
tive fluids that should take care of it are
insufficient, because the glands that Sc
crete these fluids are weak, because the
blood is failing to nourish these glands
properly.
Rich, red blood is the first essential to
proper digestion and the digestive pro-
cess cannot go on withoutit. When lack
OF nourishing blood causes fermentation
and poisons are absorbed from the diges-
tive tract, the pain in your head advises
you OF the fact. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
give the blood just the elements they
need to correct this condition and, with
a laxative, when required, form a perfect
treatment for the headaches of indiges-
ton.
Mention this paper and We will send
you two little books on the diet and the
proper use of laxative. Address: DR..

Wished to Die in Harness.

III
Superintendent William Aldrich
said it was impossible for him to ex-
press his deep feelings over the death
|of the president. He said DR.. Hughes
had been one of the staunchest sup
porters of his work that he had ever
had. He spoke>of one of DR.. Hughes
great prides was the fact that ever
since he was five years old he had
been associated with school work. He
said he believed it would have been
a grief to Dr. Hughes to have gone off
the board and that he died as he
wished he might, in harness. He
spoke Of his clear vision in school
work. and recalled that many times
he saw events coming which would not
be for the best interests of the
schools, and automatically forstalled
these.
Member Dunlap suggested before
adjournment that it would be proper
to secure picture of DR.. Hughes, and
have it enlarged and framed and hung
in the board room. Secretary barr
was named as committee to secure
the picture and have it enlarged and
framed.

when one considered that he was not
! out for fads. DR.. Hughes was of a
philosophical turn Of mind, Mr.. Boyd
said, as was shown not only to the
board members but in the speeches
which he had given at various times.
! Mr.. Boyd spoke of DR.. Hughes ideas
in one address in which the thought
was expressed that we could not help
what had been done in the past, but
that we should bend our energies to
the future. It was the same way with
the school system. DR.. Hughes was
looking forward to the time when
THE schools of the city would be used
more, especially as social centers.
Schools Feel Impress.
j. F. Lutz said he worked with DR..
/ Hughes on the board all Of the time
except his first term He believed
the schools of the city would feel
the impress of the doctors work for
long time. He spoke Of the fact that
1T was due to DR.. Hughes progressive
ideas, that sanitary drinking fountains
were installed in the local schools
months ahead of many of the big city
schools.
AS president, DR.. Hughes was the
fairest man who ever sat. Mr.. Lutz
thought. Even though he could not
agree with your side, he was fair In
his dealings. If the board adopted
policy contrary to his own ideas. once
it was the boards policy, it had no
stauncher supporter than DR.. Hughes.
DR.. G.. " alter Barr. secretary OF the
board, said he had worked with sever
al presidents. Two things impressed
him in connection with DR.. Hughes.
These were his devotion to duty and
his kindness. DR.. Barr said he had
seen DR.. Hughes in the midst OF the
most nerve racking work as physic-
ian, work all the harder that he might
attend a board meeting. He did not
know of another man who would have
undertaken this at the expense of such
energy.
DR.. Hughes was surcharged with
kindness. DR.. Barr said. He tried
never to hurt the feelings OF anyone
|if it we're possible not to. He kept
constantly before his mind the result
of his actions as far as other people
were concerned.
Laud His Work.
John A. Dunlap said that to his
mind there was one point which was
not being sufficiently emphasized.
That was DR.. Hughes love Of his work
Dr Hughes loved the work and never
seemed to tire.
w. b. Woolley added his word TO
that of Mr.. Dunlap in the matter of Dr.
Hughes love for his work. He said
he always made a special effort to be
present at the board meetings. AS
neighbor. Mr.. Woolley praised Dr.
Hughes. and his kindness TOWARDS
patients was also emphasized. Mr..
Woolley said he had been awakened
many night by seeing the doctors
lantern flashing along as he would
start out at any time in the night for
anyone, no matter what the weather or
how far. And when the patient was
