away leci&nt anil Reported
to Have Gone insane.
In October, 1896, one Monday
morning the Rushford school did not
open and it was reported that the
teacher had gone insane. The physi
cian in attendance pronounced the
trouble nervous prostration and said
that school work was mentally and
physically impossible. The teacher,
who is now Mrs. L. A. Gulliekaon, of
Kushford, Minn., in a recent inter
view published in the Star of that
place, gives the true story of the event.
"To begin at the beginning," she
said, "when I wss about seven years
of age a sudden fright brought on a
dreadful condition of nervousness.
When, in 18, I was injured in a
runaway accident, this, combined with
my former trouble, made me so ill
that I was unable to open school the
following Monday,"
"Wss it true that you were report
ed to be insane?" asked the inter
viewer. : .

When the doctor had treated me for
nearly six weeks without helping me,
Mrs. J. Webster, a nearby friend,
recommended Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People. I took them
faithfully for not quite three months
and was perfectly cured. I have never
heard of a single case where they did
not prove beneficial and know of sev
era! neraona who have token them aim

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People are not like other medicines.
They act directly on the blood and
nerves. This makes them invaluable
in such diseases as locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance,
sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nerv
ous headache, the after effects of the

AN INDEX TO
THE DLCOD
' Millions of little glands or tubes connect the blood with the skin, and through
these small drain pipes perspiration passes out, carrying with it the impurities that
sure thrown off by the blood. Should the pores of the skin be entirely closed for
eves a brief space of time, and the poisonous matter forced back into the circula
tion, instant death would result. In addition to the sweat glands, the skin is
provided with certain others which pour out upon it an oily substance, keeping
tbe akin pliable and soft and protecting it from heat and cold. The blood and skin
are ao closely related that whatever affects one seriously interferes with the func
tions of the other. Not only health, but life itself, depends upon perfect harmony
. between the blood and skin. When, therefore, the
blood becomes poisoned from any cause, it quickly InfOfltStl OOO
manifests itself upon the skin in the form
vof sores and ulcers, pimples and various EXfOflSOl POISOStS
eruptive diseases. By the character of the
'sore we are enabled to determine the nature of the poison or humor in the blood,
as e ntj disease originating in the blood has it own peculiar sore or pimple. The
akin is not only affected by the poisons generated fh tbe system, but poisons from
without enter through the open elands or pores and quickly infect the blood.
' Mercury rubbed upon the skin will produce Rheumatism, and Poison Oak and Ivy
asd other wild plants gain easy access to the blood through the skin. As so-called

ons antidoted or neutralized. 8. 8. 8. does this and purifies the circulation, builds
up the blood and flushes the little glands or pores with pure, new blood, aud
restores healthy action to the skin. The use of cosmetics never yet brought health
and beauty to rough, red, pimply skin or sallow complexion. What is needed
is rich, pure blood, such as 8. 8. 8. makes. It not only relieves you of all disfigur
ing blackheads, blotches and irritating, itching eruptions, but improves your general
health. 6. 8. 8. contains no mercuty, potash, arsenic or other mineral, but is
