under a positive guarantee to relieve
dyspepsia or to refund the money. You
simply leave so cents on deposit with

used the box OF Mi-o-na, you decide

A NERv|NE TONIC

In many severe nervous disorders
the best remedy Is often tonic. The
most active tonic treatment is recon-
mended by the highest medical au-
thority to arrest the progress of such
diseases.
1t is impossible to reach the nerves
directly with medicine. Dr. Williams
Pink Pills are a nervine tonic but they
act on the nerves through the blood,
enabling the blood to carry to the
nerves the elements needed to build
them up.
Neuralgia. sciatica, sick headache
and number of more severe nervous
troubles are properly treated by build
ing up the blood with DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and are often entirely cor
rected in this way.
If you are nervous yQN can help
yourself by refusing to worry, by TAX
ing proper rest, sleep and vacations
by avoiding excuses and by taking
out of door exercise. For medicine
take Dr. Williams Pink Pills, the non
alcoholic tonic.
Sufferers from nervous disorders
who have been taking treatment with
| out benefit should investigate the tonic
method. Write today to the DR.. Will
liams Medicine Co.. Schenectady, n
Y, for the booklet. Diseases of the

Washington. D. c., Sept. 14.-(Spec-
iaD-Plans for the Conference on Ma
tional Defense, which will be held I'M
der the auspices of the National De-
Tense League in Washington. Oct. Al.
Immediately following the Grand Army
of the Republic Encampment, are rap
idly being completed. The Navy
League and the National Rifle Associ-
alton are cooperating with the Ma
tional Defense League in the confer
ence. Representative Julius Kahn of
California. chairman, and Senator Rob
ert F. Broussard, of La, vice chair
man of the National Defense League,
will preside at the sessions Of the con-
ference, which will last four days and
at which will speak the most promi-
nent men of the United States.
The Conference on National Defense
probably will be the greatest conven-
ton ever held in Washington. Thous-
ands of the Grand Army veterans have
notified the League that they will re-
main in Washington to attend the con-
ference, after the G. A. r. encampment
ends. A very large number of Con-
gressmen. members of State legisla-
lures, mayors of cities, and others
have signifled their intention of being
present at the conference.
1t is expected that this conference
will focus the eyes of the whole coun-
try on the preparedness for National
defense agitation, and will have an
important effect on the action of Con-
gress at the next session for adequate
defense measures.
Women are going to take a promi =
nent part in the deliberations OF the
conference. Many have written the
National Defense League they will at
tend the conference.
From thousands Of letters received
by the National Defense League it is
shown that in every section of the
country there is strong sentiment
for preparation for National defense.
Many Of the writer's say they will at
tend the conference.
citizens committee of 500 promi-
nent Washingtonians has been ap-
pointed to care for the local arrange
ments for the conference, and the press
committee includes practically the
whole membership Of the Congression-
al Press Gallery.
President Wilson. former Presidents
Taft and Roosevelt. and many other
prominent men have been invited to
speak at the conference.

The Newest Discovery in Chemist.

This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buff

Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric
acid that can be compared to 1t. For
those easily recognized symptoms of
inf1ammation-as backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination, as we'll
as sediment in the urine. or If uric
acid In the blood has caused rheuma-
tism, it is simply wonderful how sure
ly "An-uric" acts. The best of results
are always obtained in cases Of acute
rheumatism in the joints, in gravel
and gout and invariably the pains and
stiffness which so frequently and per-
sistently accompany the disease rapid
