A ALCOHOLIC TONIC

Debility is loss of vitality, not affect ing any one part of the body particularly but thesystem generally. Itis dangerous because it reduces the bodys resistance to disease.
 When debility follows acute diseases, convalescence is slow and the strength does not return as it should. An attack ot the grip often results in debility that persists for months. Everybody recog- nizes that the remedy for debility is to build up the blood because the blood goes to every part of the body and an im- provement in it's condition is quickly felt throughout the system. The prob- lem in every case is to find something that will enrich the blood
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills suit most peo- ple's need because they are non alcoholic and they really build up the blood and strengthen the nerves. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are useful for growing children and for men and women whose nervous energy has been overdrawn. They are certainly worthy of a trial in every case of weak nerves and thin blood.
 Your druggist sells Dr. Williams Pink Pills or they will be sent by mail, post paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes $2 50 by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,. Schenectady, N. Y. Write today for free booklets on the blood and nerves.

l Marine Recruits Story Would Make Winstcd Liar Blush.

Wilkes Barre, Pa, March B. Rounded by a school of blue fish that had followed her 2,500 miles from New York, the U. $. $. "Tennessee' put into Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and unloaded company of United States marine corps recruits last week, ac- cording to a letter received by Ser geant Frank Stubbe of the local re- cruiting station of the marine corps.
 '"The waves rolled high,'' one of the recruits wrote Stubbe,' and, for the first time in my life I realized the big ness of the ocean, the smallness of me, and the minor part I could play in the great scheme of things. Is there a life beyond death I asked myself? If not, what is the purpose of my be- ing? Why was I ever born? Ponder ing over this stupendous question staggered to the rail and after a while was forced to give the whole thing up together with some trifles I had eaten for breakfast. As I let go of my feelings, a big blue fish jumped up out of the water and gazed hungrily into my beautiful blue eyes. He was a handsome fellow and l knew that I'd remember him if I ever saw him again. And sure enough, five days later, as we were entering the harbor of Port-au-Prince, and while l was again mediating on the philosophy of life, that same blue fish jumped up out of the water as if to devour my inmost thoughts. It seems that school of them followed us all the way down to Haiti because of the re- cruits aboard who had never before been to sea-
