NEURALSi A Disease of the Blood Resulting from some Constitutional Tain! Inherited or Acquired—Caused by Impoverished Blood, which is Always Shown by the Afflicted One’s Pallor and Emaciation—How it May be Cured. From the Graphic, .Ruthville, Ind. Miss Pearl Wood, a popular young lady of Arlington, Indiana. Two years ago Miss Wood became seriously afflicted with facial neuralgia and was not relieved of her suf fering until about eight months ago. She says, “I bad fairly good health until two years ago when tho facial neuralgia de veloped. It started with occasional pains in my jaws and I did not know what the trouble was. I went to a dentist, thinking my teeth needed treating, but the dentist said such was uot the case as it was facial neural gia. Our physician said the same thing and he gave me medicine which relieved the pain for awhile. “A few weeks later I woke up one night with a fearful pain in my head. I tried dif ferent remedies, but could not get rid of the awful pain. I managed to pull through, how ever, till morning, when the doctor was sent for. He said it was another attack of the trouble and I was apt to have a serious time of it. His prophecy proved true. I suffered severely from this disease for many weeks. The pains often came in the night and were so severe that it was impossible to sleep. We tried a different doctor, but he did me no good. I had read articles in the news- }>apers concerning Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills or Pale People, and although I had never read of a cure of any trouble similar to mine through them, somehow I felt that the pills might benefit me. Some of our neighbors had used them with successful results, and I decided to try them. 1 8ent to Rushville for half a dozen boxes. I concluded if they were worth trying, they were worth a thorough trial ; but all the medicine was never used. “By the time I had finished the secund box 1 found I was growing better. I don’t think I was ever more happy in my life than over the fact 1 was getting well. After taking the third box, the pain which had made life v. a misery, had left me, and when I had finished the fifth box 1 was well.” Neuralgia is the result of some constitu tional taint which has been inherited or acquired. It is the direct result of an im poverished condition of the blood which i.< always shown by the afflicted one’s pallor and emaciation. Any part of the body which 1ms sensitive nerves may become affected. Among the many forms of this disease ar, headache, nervousness, paralysis, apoplexy and locomotor ataxia. Some of these wer considered incurable until Dr.Williams’Pinl- Pills for Pale People were formulated. To day thousands testify to having been cured oi tuch diseases by these pills. No discovery of modern times has prove*, such a boon to women as Dr. Williams’ Pinl Pills for Pale People. Acting directly on tin blood and nerves invigorating the body, regulating the functions, they restore the strength and health to the exhausted woman when every effort of the physician proves un availing. For the growing girl they p.rp of the ut most benefit, for the mother indispensable for every woman invaluable. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are recognized everywhere ns r specific for diseases of the blood and nerves and have proved their efficacy in thousand- of cases. They are one of the greatest bless ings ever bestowed upon mankind. ?» ?» ?» ?» “Men may come, and men may go, Out 1 go' on forever,” said Tennysonconcerning the river.

The potato crop is about ready to be wagon; one good top buggy; one all- cloth.” From times immemorial the idea has been cultivated that old men for counsel and young men for war is the proper arrangement for human activity. Whatever may have been past experience, the recent war with Spain leaves the venerable maxim in a topsy-turvey condition. Men on the far side of the prime of life have directed the battles as well as formed the plans, and with re markable success. Perhaps some, like Shafter at Santiago, were a little impetuous, but that merely strengthens the case against the proverb. Most of the leaders are nearing the age of retirement. Dewey is 61, and entered the naval academy forty-four years ago. It is something of a commentary on fame that his name is particularly hard to find in the biographical works. Six months ago the com piler had not made his acquaintance. He is not in the Century “Diction ary of Names,” published in 1894. Dewey proved equally good for war and counsel, in fact incomparably better tBnn any young man could have been. He is a veteran of the civil war, and in that grim school learned all about running batteries, disregarding mines and opening fire before breakfast. Dewey at 61 is young enough to carry through any task that could be set before the United States navy, belligerent or diplomatic. There is Gen. Joseph Wheeler, who on the 10th of next month will reach A PET SEAGULL. the age of 62.
