make the fare as low as possible, perhaps
even 2 1-2 cents.

of 6i Clarion St., Bradford, Pa., was seized with a nervous disorder which ^
threatened to end her life. Eminent physicians agreed the trouble was
y from impoverished blood, but failed to give relief. Mr. Watrous heard
I Dr. Williams' Pink ?Pills for Pale People were highly recommended for nerI

[[ \ the girl's condition improved. After using six boxes herappetite returned, )
the pain in her head ceased, and she was stronger than ever before. "My &
