Dr. WtUlama' pink Pllla for Pale People have performed those remarkabl cures that make ' It Impos sible for any ' nervous sufferer to neglect them with Justice to himself. - A recent esse Is that of Mrs. Peter Morrlssette of No. 116 Eleventh street, Alpena, Michigan,, who writes as fol lows: "My trouble started with child birth. - After one of my children was born I had a kind of paralysis. J waa very weak and my mouth waa a little crooked. I waa always tired and was so nervous that I could not bear to hear a dog bark or a bell ring even the llttl bird in It cage wouUl annoy me. My. heart fluttered a great deal and I had dlssy spells. I was not able to be left alon ' - i "My doctor gave me different klnda of medicine, changing it several time. When it was evident that he could not help me he said he did not understand my case. This was three year ago and 1 waa very much discouraged, when my brother, . who had taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, recommended them to me. I tried them and noticed a change for th better when I was taking th second box. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me and I bava been well ever since. I now do all my own housework, sawing and washing for seven of -us. I have recom mended the pill to a number of peopl and am very glad to make thla state ment." The fact that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cared .this stubborn' case, aa well a other more severe, leaves no doubt that they will cur leaaer . trouble arising from, disordered nerve . and lack of nerve fore.

In Port land it la taken as confirming Th Jour nal' statement that th Wailula Pactno la a Mllwauke project, and that the road now under conatructlon by the Wailula Paclflo and - Columbia Valley companies - .paralleling the Hill -north bank road will b a joint Mllwauke and Union Paclflo lin. The election of Mr. Earling to tha Union Paclflo board 1 aaid to have been dictated by th Rockefeller Interests. No well posted man In th employ . of the Mllwauke denies that Mr. Rocke feller and his associates have long been practically ln control of th Milwaukee, and -that Mr. Earling haa for year been Rockefeller" enter railroad adviser. Th close affiliation of Harrifnaa with the Rockefeller Interest lately has brought Union : Pacific mlao - under .Rockefeller Influence, and when th lntereata of the twos road wer mutually threatened In the Paclflo northwest by the Hill lines It was the most natural thing for .Mil waukee and Union Pacific people to come together -at the danger point, which haa proved to be the Columbia river basin from th Clearwater river to Portland. - . . . Columbia Seotioa ma. . ' It Is now practically conceded that the Milwaukee will be forced to build th Columbia river section of It line first, transposing th original . plan, whlcB waa to construct the road from eaat to west, touch the Columbia river at Wailula and run ita train over th O.

In th Pa clflo northwest. The result further how the shrewdness of Harrlman aa a manipulator and practical railroad map maker. Th Milwaukee, spreading through th Dakotaa, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois, doe not conflict at any point with th Union Pacific, but gets Into th heart of th Hill system and split it In twain. - At the same time, Marvin' Hughltt, president of th Chicago North weat rn, becomea a director of th Southern Paclflo.. It is aald Mr. riughitt rail road ha for some time, been en th verg of an open breach with th Union Paclflo management on account of th steady encroachment of- ' th North western in Paclflo coast territory. - Two Atkaata Slvoro Sun.
