What a Detroit Man Says About

"One who has suffered as long and
as much es / have is naturally ready
to recommend the remedy that help
cd him." says Mr.. Harry w. Andrews,
OF No. sc Montcalm street East, De-
troit, Mich. "It was while residingin
Mexico that / first felt the disease
coming on. My nerves became so
weak that / had acreeping feeling all
over my body. The pain was gener-
ally worse around my temples. Some
times the pains around my heart be-
came so severe that they frightened
me and was half convinced that /
bad heart trouble. My digestion was
poor and I was so nervous that !
went many nights without sleep.
II read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills recently and decided to try the
remedy. / followed the directions
faithfully and in few weeks obtained

SUGAR IMPORTS ABOVE
THOSE OF LAST YEAR
Three Chief Atlantic Ports Have Re.
ceived 385, 5,344,e50 Pounds More
Than to Same Date in 1919


New York, April S.-Persistent stor
les are in circuia ion among sugar re-
tailers, and passed on to consumers,
that there is another shortage e
sugar in sight and that prices will be
higher soon. The only evidence to
support this is that sales OF raw
sugar in Cuba and Porto Rico, for i'm
mediate shipment, have been made re-
Gently at higher prices, and that ex-
ports of refined sugar to Europe have
been quite large.
Against this is the fact that impor-
tations of sugar from Cuba to the
United States have been much larger
than last year, are above the immedi-
ate capacity OF the retineries, and
there are large accumulations await
ing shipment at Cuban ports. The
receipts at the three ports, Boston,
Philadelphia and New York, this year
to March 26 were 1,547 ,860.160 pounds
against 1890, ,622, ,22O pounds last year
to March 49, The receipts for the
three ports from all sources for the
same dates are 1,S6S,359,350 pounds
against 1,4S3;014,400 pounds last year,
according to figures given by the
American Sugar Bulletin.
There is no change In the whole
sale prices Of refined sugar, which is
1872 cents net, and no difficulty in
furnishing supplies to retailers ex-
cept such difficulties as pertain to
transportation troubles.
