FROM 1858 TO 1914

This brief history of pioneer doc
or in Washington county, Ohio, tells
OF a service to humanity that contin-
ued without interruption for ffty-six
long years.
Tho doctor In the early years Of
his practice, learned that even In the
days before the Civil War the people
needed good tonic medicine. Just as
they do today. AS was the practice In
those early years, he went to the doc
tor he had studied under and was
given formula for making q tonic
from herbs, roots. banks, iron and 9th.
er medical ingredients. From the very
first this tonic gave wonderful results

in many cases complete cures result
ed. AS the years rolled by, the old
doctor tried various new tonics as
they came out, but never found any.
thing that would give him the sam
good results as his own preparation.
So up to the very time OF his death in
1914 at the ripe old age Of IS years, he
gave this good old tried and true med
icine to his patients.
His two sons became doctors and
they also used this tonic in their reg.

suits as their father had.

placed on the market for the good OF

WASHINGTON
IS PESSIMISTIC
Not Ready to Admit, How
ever, That Fall of Car

Washington, Oct. 27.-Otficial reports
received here showing that members Of
the Carranza, 0bregon, Trevino and Ma
dero families are nov in San Antonio
Tex, have puzzled observers seeking an
explanation of the gathering in the Unit.
ed States of non. comhatant Mexicans.
The reports do not explain their pres
ence.
Some officials believe, however, eco
nomic and social conditions generally in
Mexico are such as to make Mexicans of
the wealthy class anxious to get their
women folks out os the country for the
present.
The dispatches indicate that most OF
the women have come recently from
Mexico.
The state department has not received,
so far as known, any official reports
bearing out the charges of General Car
ranza's political enemies that his grip is
relaxing and that he is preparing to
leave Mexico.
The exodus to San Antonio has been
used to support this view, but high Off
Gals have seen nothing showing such
a development is to be expected.

usually thin blood. Backache general
ly accompanies this state of thesystem.
Such sufferers are usually pale but
not necessarily thin. In blends the
transparency OF the skin is increased;
in brunettes it is decreased and the
complexion becomes muddy. The eye
lids become greyish blue.
This condition of thin blood, which
doctors call anemia, is dangerous one
if allowed to progress but with proper
treatment it may be speedily corrected.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie contain just the elements needed to
build up the blood and restore the lost
color and vitality. New energy circu-

In each instance, contention was made
that the petition had failed to show
sufficient cause for intervention, and
that proceedings on the question of max

offer stockholders ample opportunity to
be heard
The court set Nov. 6 as the date for

Various Forms
OF Headache

ut is necessary In order to treat head
aches properly to understand the causes
which produce the affection" says DR.. j. W.
Ray, OF Blockton. Ala. Continuing, he says,
Physicians cannot even begin the treat
ment OF a disease without knowing what
causes give rise to IL, and we must remem-
Der that headache is to be treated accord
ing to the same rule. We must not Only be
particular to give remedy intended to
counterfeit the cause which produces tho
headache, but we must also give remedy
to relieve the pain until the cause OF thu
trouble has been removed. To answer this
purpose, antt-kamnia tablets will be found
most convenient and satisfactory remedy.
One tablet every one to three hours gives
comfort and rest In the most severe cases
OF headache, neural gta and particularly the
headaches OF women"
When we have a patient subject to regular
attacks OF sick headache, we should caution
him to keep his bowels regular, for which
nothing Is better tnan "Actoids," and when
he feels the least eign OF an oncoming at
tack, he should take two AK Tablets. Such
patients should always be instructed to
carry few anti-kamnia tablets, SO as to
have them ready for instant use. These
tablets are prompt in action and can be
depended on to produce relief In q very
few minutes Ask for AK Tablets.

SHOT IN WEST
The Swing Of Sentiment to
Candidate Hughes
Commences
REPUBLICANS SEE
OLD-TIME MAJORlTlES
Cincinnati Gives Warm Wei
come to President Will
son on Visit There

New York, Oct, 27.-The president has
shot his bolt in the middle west. This
is the opinion of disinterested observers
as we'll as of Republican leaders. There
was a time when it appeared that the
swing to Wilson in some of the pivotal
states was almost irresistible That time
has now passed, and the pendulum is
moving the other way so fast that the
Hughes men are predicting oldfashioned
majorities on election day. Republican
apathy has disappeared, and there will
be no repetition of the campaign blum
ders which came SO near imperilling Mr.,
Hughes chances. While thus reassur
ing reports come from fields afar, the
news from New York state is no less
heartening. There the odds on Hughes
are 10 to 7; there the nominee was never
so popular as he is to-day; there the
audiences welcome him not as a candi
date but as good as elected. The one
safe election bet is that the nation will
90 as New York does. The Democrats
are trying to make themselves and 9TH
nrs believe that Wilson can win without
the empire state, but they are deceiving
nobody.

newed bandit activities. Despite per.
sonally leading his men against the Car
rama garrison at Chihuahua City, nei-
Their the state nor war departments
have received convincing reports that he
is alive.
Military experts are frankly pessimis-
tic of the result OF the Carranza cam
paign against these bandits. They be-
lieve that the defacto troops have little
chance to destroy the brigands because
they have no transport trains and sup
ply systems which would permit them
to chase the outlaws into the barren
hill country. 1t is known that this
weakness of the Mexican forces has been
presented to the American
Mexican commissioners. To the minds
of American army officers it represents
a serious obstacle to the present restor-
alton of order in northern Mexico.
