OVERWORK ?INDUCED ? -Nervous Prostration Complete Recovery by the Use of | Ayer's Sarsaparilla mr~ " Some years ago, as a result of too close attention to business, my health failed. I became weak, nervous, was Eg? unable to look after my interests, and . manifested all the symptoms of a deV cline. I took three bottles of Ayer's ?f Sarsaparilla, began to improve at once, y. and gradually increased nay "weight from one hundred and twenty-five to two I hundred pounds. Since then, I and my family have used this medicine when needed,-: and we are all in the best of ( health, a fact which we attribute to | Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I believe my children would have been fatherless to-day had it not been for Ayer's Sarsaparilla, of which preparation I cannot say too r much."?H. O. Hikson, Postmaster and ? Planter, Kinard's, S. C.

These glands pour out the digestive juices which dissolve or digest the food. Indigestion is want of juice, weakness of glands, need of help to restore the health of these organs. The best and most natural help is that given by Shaker Digestive Cordial. Natural, because it supplies the materials needed by the glands to prepare the digestive juices. Be| cause it strengthens and invigorates j the glands and the stomach, until they are able to do their work alone. Shaker Digestive Cordial cures in[ digestion certainly and permanently. It does so by natural means, and therein lie3 the seeret of its wonder ful and unvaried success. At druggists, price 10 cents to i $1.00 per bottle. Sow to Hake Life Sappy.

Along one of the dismal roads in Western New York, a man and wife were driving as rapidly as the dark- ^ ness and inclement weather would permit. ^ The rain beat down upon the rub- w ber covering and found its way into M every crack and opening. h The occupants of the buggy were Dean Jones and his wife, of Spiing- p ville, N. Y. Everybody is familiar r( with the name. He is the well- fr known starting judge, who has be- a come famous for his impartial and fair treatment of jockeys at the post. It was about ten years ago when Mr. and Mrs. Jones took that fateful ride that came near costing her her life. Mrs. Jones' clothes were thoroughly soaked before town was tl reached. There was no fire in their o hotel room and she became chilled to 1 the bone before the little blaze, the d attendant started, warmed the at- I: mosphere. From that time on Mrs. Jones was ^ an ill woman. a Her trouble?well it was about h everything with which human flesh 6: can be afflicted. She had a strange, h queer feeling in her head, that felt as if several shot were rolling around loose on her brain. Pen cannot describe the torture she suffered. Local ^ si doctors told her she had water on the brain. a m t tin t r a Times reporter canea upon iurs. Jones, who said: ci "Ever since that terrible wetting 0 I received, up to a year ago, I was an o invalid. I had terrible neuralgia pains in the head which often went o: to my feet and limbs. I was often in t? such a terrible state that 1 had to b use a crutch to get around or else slide a chair before me to move about a, the house. I was very ill for five ? years, in spoils, and never expected to get well. It was a blood disease I guess. One of the doctors I consulted said I had clotted blood in my ^ head, and perhaps I did. He could ^ not cure me, neither could several , hi other doctors I tried. I also U3ed . hi many patent medicines, but they did me no good. . * "My complexion was a perfect white, and my ears were so transparent you could look through them. ,1 My blood was turning to water. "Look at me now, do I look s^ck V 1 The reporter was forced to admit that he had seldom seen a more per- S( feet embodiment of health. . 1E "With pardonable pride Mrs. Jones " said, "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People did it. tc "I can go anywhere now, while cc before I commenced using Dr. Wil h liams' remedy I could net move out h of the house. "For three years, would you be- ei lieve it, I did not even go to church, a I was not always confined to my bed, si but could not leave the house. ir "Wherever I go people say, 'Why, a Mrs. Jones, how well you are looking, f] How did it happen?" and I always n tell them 'Pink Pills did it.'. ti "I have not had the slightest touch of my old illness for the last six months and feel as if I never had j been ill in my life." tt Mr. Jones said, "you can readily imagine how highly we regard the u, remedy in this house where we have had a wife and mother restored to perfect health." ^ Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold w by all dealers, or will be sent post ^ paid on receipt of price, (50 cents a C( box, or six, boxes for $2.50?they are ^ never sold in bulk, or by the 100) by n addressing Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

"Jimmy, my child," the fond mother exclaimed, "don't eat so much of that lobster salad- You'll Y< be ill tonight, dear; I know you will."
