NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA

Nervous dyspepsia is disease of the
nerves, not of the stomach.
Indigestion one day and complete free
dom from symptoms the next usually
means nervous dyspepsia, especially Il
the patient is of nervous or highly
emotional temperament
The attacks recur at more or less
regular intervals and arc often brought
on BY nervous excitement. A sick feel
ing after eating, sometimes vomiting, a
weak, shaky, "gone' feeling when the
stomach is empty-these are the usual
symptoms, but in the case of some highly
nervous people the sight of food or the
approach Of meal-time may cause vomit-
ing.
DR.. Williams' Pink Pills are especially
useful to sufferers from nervous dyspepsia
as they not only build up the general
physical condition but also act directly
on the nerves, Strengthening and revi.
talizing them. These pills, with proper
regulation Of the diet, afford the most
correct and successful way in which ner-
vous and functional dyspepsia can be
treated.
A postal card request TO the DR.. VIII.
liams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.
will bring copy of useful diet book
and . pamphlet on nervous disorders,
both free of cost to you. Your own drug
gist sells DR.. Williams Pink Pills.

HOW TO HEAL
SKIN-DISEASES

"A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive,
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, rashes and sim
liar itching, burning akin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get q jar OF
reeinol ointment and cake of reeinoi
soap. These will not cost bit more
than seventy-five cents. With the res
mol soap and warm water battle the af-
fected parts thoroughly, until they are
free from crusts and the skin Is soft
ened. Dry very gently, spread on q thin
layer Of tho resinol ointment, and cover
with q light bendage-if necessary ia
protect the clothing. This should be
done twice day. Usually the distress
ing itching and burning stop with the
first treatment, and the skin soon be-
comes clear and healthy again.

A Glance Into the Past.
Rev. McAllister in his address to
The assembled patriotic orders said:
Hero fathers and friends: Let US
rlance back for brief moment
through the already cloudy past. When
lincoln made his way to the white
Souse. after his election, the air was
iense. so tense was it that he was
rompelled. for safety's sake, to enter
Washington in secret. There we're
minors of secession. The north de-
.ired peace. Lincoln at first contend
"a he would merely hold the defensive
and use power to retake the property
and forts the confederacy had taken.
The question of slavery had long
since been the uppermost thought In
the minds Of the public and the states
felt that this problem would climax
itself with Lincoln in the white house.
Major Anderson now sent message
tc the president. stating that he could
not long continue to hold Fort Sum p
Ter unless he received more supplies.
The government Immediately made ar
sangements for the necessities de-
handed. Jefferson Davis heard of 1t.
4 He Immediately ordered General
Beauregard to order the surrender OF
the fort. Major Anderson declined,
and at daybreak, April IL, 1861. the
confederates fired the first gun that
was heard around the world" The
next day the president called for 49,
Oo0 volunteers for three months serv-
Ice. Every village and hamlet was
stirred. Had not Fort Sumpter been
fired upon, had not the dignity Of the
north been trampled upon? Certatu-
y they would volunteer; it would all

home with the matter entirely set

cry was, ION to Richmond" while
the southerners were crying with
equal intensity, "On to Washington.
Almost midway between these two
noted cities the first blow was struck
by men that were courag eous, but as
Lincoln put it, very green" The
north was at disadvantage, the
south struck flank movement and
the men in blue came rushing back in

Four Years Of Hell. ~
From thisSthe war progressed, then

four years that have gone down into
history. Men were brave, they were

they not right? Was not God on Their
sides? They fought, they bled, they
died. Now the last gun has been
