C W. Allen, Thirteen Years In
the Service, Talks Inter
estingly A bout His Life.
The postman often has strange experl
ncest. One of thes? came recently to Mr.
C. V. Alien ot 377 St. Albans street, St.
Paul. Minn., who has been a letter carrier
for the past thirteen years. He is ZS years
old and ha passed the greater portion ot
his life in St. Paul. Owing to exfosure. Mr.
Allen contracted a severe case of muscular
rheumatism, which doctors failed to relieve.
Hearing of the m"nt. if Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People, he was persuad
ed to trv a box. His improvement date
from that period. To use Mr. Allen's own
language: "The tlrst box brought me the
llrt real relief from suffering I had experi
enced in weeks, the second made me prac
tically well again and. since taking the
third. I have had no recurrence of the rheu
matism, though it has been more than a
vear Mnce I u---eil Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
Why shouldn't I recommend them?"
The blood in rheumatism has an acid im
purity which irritates the sensitive tlfsue
that unite the joints and cover the muscles,
thus causing those indescribable torturs
which rheumatic sufferers endure.
Eh" umatUm is always dungeruus, as It
i liable to attack the heart. Years ago
those afflicted were hlfd. as if taking away
some of the Impure blood could remedy tha
balance. This folly has been abandoned and
to-day physicians prescribe and druggists
recommend the use of Dr. Williams' Pink
1'ills fot Pale People, as these marvelous
vegetable pills go directly to the seat of the
trouble, exerting a powerful Influence in
purifying and enriching the blood by elim
inating -poisonous elements and renewing
health-giving force-thus making a pottnt
remedy for curing this disease.
Dr. William- Pink Pills for Pale PeopI
will not only cure rheumatism, but are a
positive specific for all diseases arising from
impoverished blood or shattered nerves.
They are sold by all dealers or will be sent
postpaid on receipt of price, fifty cents a
box. or six boxes for two dollars and fifty
cents, by addressing Dr. Williams Medietas

LIABILITY OF CITY
IN TETANUS GASES
i'oint Was Argued in John
Fnerst's Suit -for Damages for
Death of Daughter.'
Argument! were heard yesterday dJ
Judge Fisher in Division No. 5 of the Cir
cuit Court, on the demurrer of the citv to
the petition of John Fuerst, who Is suinr I
for $20,000 for the loss of hia 4-yemr-oUl
daughter. Flora, who died of tetanus,
caused by antitoxin received from tho city,
and administered to her. The matter was
submitted to the Court and the attorneys
will file briefs.
Associate City Counselor William F.
Woerner contended that the city cannot bs
held liable for the two-fold reason that it
was acting for tho State, which cannot ba
sued, and that It was performing a func
tion for the public good. He maintained
that the city was acting with the- State la
the Interest of the preservation of ths
health of the citizens of th State, and
that the city received no benctlL
He claimed that under the law, if ths
purpose of the act was not attained, or If
the result was opposite to beneficial, th
city cannot be held liable.
Attorney E. E. Wood, who is prosecuting'
the case, argued that the city voluntarlly
assumed the obligation; that tho burden
wan not Imposed by the State, and that tha
city ls, therefore, liable for the consequence
of its act. He said he proposed to show
that the antitoxin was sold. Attorney Woer
ner said he was satisfied that it could not
be proven that the antitoxin was sold.
