Any Girl Can ie
A physician v/ho makes i'ne
test and is honest about it can
tell you that , in many casestne
number of red corpuscles in the
blood is doubled after a course
of treatment v/ith Dr. Williams'
PmK Pills For Pale People.
That this means good blood ,
may not be entirely clear from
the doctor's statement , but any J
girl v/ho has tried the pills can tell
you that it means red lips , bright
eyes , good appetite , absence o ? '
headache , and that it trans
forms the pale and sallow girl
into a maiden v/ho glows with
the beauty which perfect health
alone can give.
Mothers whose daughters
gTcm debilitated as they pass
from girlhood into womanhood
should not neglect the pill best
adapted for this particular ill.

Frank B. Trout , of 103 Griswold Ave. , Detroit , Mich. , says : "At the
nge of fourteen we had to lake our daughter from school on account of ill
health. She weighed only 90 pounds , was pale and sallow and the doctors
said she had anzcmia. Finally we gave her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People. When she had taken two boxes she was strong enough to
leave her bed , and in less than six mouths was something like herself.
To-day she is entirely cured , and is a big , strong , healthy girl , weighing
130 pounds , and has never had a sick day since. " Detroit Evening Xcuis.

; reason Mrs. Pmldiam's treatment helps women so
promptly is that they have confidence in her.
Through some of the many thousands of Mrs. Pink-
ham's friends an ailing woman will be led to write to Mrs.
Pinkham at her home in Lynn ,
Mass. , and will tell her symptoms.
The reply , made without charge of
any kind , will bear such evidence
of knowledge of the trouble that
belief in her advice at once inspires
hope.
This of itself is a great help.
Then the knowledge that women only see the letters asking
for advice and women only assist Mrs. Pinkham in replying
makes it easy to be explicit about the little things that define
the disease.
MRS. ELIZA THOMAS , of 634 Pine St. , Easton , Pa. , writes :
"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM I doctored with two of the best
doctors in the city for two
years and had no relief until I
began the use of your remedies. f

TRICKS PLAYED ON BANKERS.
Pinkerton Unveils Fliarp Practices in
Selling Burtjiar-Proof Devices.
"One of the thlugs most eagerly
sought after by the bankers , " said
William A. Piukerlon yesterday , "is
protection for their funds , and tliis de
sire often makes them easy prey for
slick confidence men. I dou't mean the
ordinary 'cou' sharps , for any up-to-
date banker can guard against their
wiles. But there is a class of smooth
talkers who do business with bankers
in an apparently legitimate manner
and get the cash every time without
taking any risk. These are the chap
who have something to sell in the way
of devices.
burglar-proof or fire-proof
Many of the dealers and agents are
reputable and straightforward in theii
business , but there are black sheep in
all lines of trade , and the banker does
not always get the kind of protection
he thinks he has purchased. After he
has been bamboozled a few times he
becomes suspicious even of those who
arc honest and able to furnish him re
ceptacles which will give protection
against the ingenious burglar who has
been so much in evidence lately.
"For instance , when a banker , after
such investigation , does finally pay a
good price for a first-class safe , and
begins to rest easy , along comes a new
schemer , who is after his dollars , and
assures him that his safe is absolutely
worthless ; that any burglar can , by the
use of the electric current , burn a hole
any desired size into his safe in a few
minutes and easily extract its contents.
But if the banker will buy an electric
alarm system , Avhich this ready exaggerator -
gerator lias to sell , then any old box
can be made burglar-proof. No safe
has ever yet been robbed by the use of
the electric current. It is positively
impracticable for such a trick to be
performed , and has been proved so
upon at least two occasions by elec
trical experts. While it is true that
any metal can be pierced or melted
rapidly with electricity under certain
favorable conditions , yet it is impossi
ble for a bank burglar to secure the re
quired facilities.
"The method by which some bankers
have been scared into purchasing elec
tric alarm systems which sound gongs
in the streets , often give false alarms ,
and can be defeated is a 'fake' pure
and simple. Some bankers have been
eye-witnesses in Chicago to the process
of burning holes into bank safes. This
work is done in a basement. In one
room the banker sees a positive electric
wire attached to a carbon clamped to a
stick , a negative wire attached to the
safe , a sheet-iron box lined with asbes
tos Avith a hole in the center , fastened
to the safe , a switchboard , and he sees
the metal melt , but he does not see.
located in another room , great resistance -
ance coils immersed in an immense
trough of running water , and various
other hidden paraphernalia. If the in
vestigator were allowed to see the
whole outfit he would not worry one
moment about having his safe robbed
by electricity.
"The best protection is a Avatch sys
tem conducted by reliable men. Fully
one-half of the so-called burglar-proof
devices are fakes , and made only to
sell. " Chicago Inter Ocean.

A thrilling adventure with a trapped

out his head and looked imploringly InLi

The owner of the dog then became
the object of most intense interest and
solicitude. IJis apparel was quickly
removed. Aviiilo the rat descended to
his sloe-king , at which point the dog
became master of the situation.
