THE PAIN or NEURALGIA

People think of neuralgia as pain in
the head or face but neuralgia may affect
any nerve of the body. Different names
are given to it when it affects certain ner-
YES. Thus neuralgia of the sciatic nerve
is called sciatica but the character of the
pain and the nature of the disease is the
same, the cause is the same and the
remedy to be effective, must be the same.
The pain of neuralgia is caused by
starved nerves. The blood, which nor
mally carries nourishment to the nerves,
for some reason no longer does so and
she pain that you feel is the cry of the
nerves for food. The reason why the
blood fails to properly nourish the nerves
is often because the blood itself is weak
and thin.
Anemia, or thin blood, is the most
common cause of neuralgia. Build up
the thin blood with DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and you are attacking neuralgia at
its root. These tonic pills also have 8
peculiar and direct action on the nerves
SO that they are probably the very best
possible remedy for the treatment of neu-
ralgia.

Pink Pills. Get box today and write

AS TO the possible testamentary Sc

SAFE TRANSPORT TO EUROPE

To rHE EDITOR OF THE S~uN--Sir: II
seems To me that a practical solution
OF the grave difficulty that now exists In
relation to the safe transport Of nom
~combatants between this country and
Europe might he reached along the fol-
lowing lines;
BY agreement between the steamship
companies and the Governments in
volved, let certain ships he designated
to carry passengers and mails only, or
at most only such cargo as could raise
no objection.
No such designated vessel to be
cleared until the port ~ofhcials are salts
fled that she Is carrying nothing pro-
hibited.
All the nations would surely respect
such vessels.
Then by the same agreement pro-
hibit the carrying OF passengers on
cargo boats.
This might be c%onceding something Of
our rights to free use OF the sea. but II
would obviate any further Lusitania In
cidents. with the danger OF dragging US
into the war. SAFETY FIRST.
