The weather has cut so many ca

has been quite hard to meet it at-
ways in a good humor, not know

The Snow Storm.
Friday evening of the 21st uU„
the sun set in a few reddish, misty
looking clouds and when we mor

At about one o’clock in the darkness
the flakes began to fall and all the
night long they fell silently, per-

Shipments For Past Week Reach High
Water Mark. _
Tampa, Fla., March 6.—The cigar
shipments for the week which closed
Saturday evening were heavy. They
reached a point which has only been
exceeded once during the year, so far as
weekly shipments go. The figures pre
sent the usual interesting comparison
with the business of the previous year,
and the increase is still far in excess of
last year’s business.
There were 521 cases of cigars shipped
last week, against 3(56 for the corres
ponding week of last year. This is an
increase of 153 cases over that week.
The cases last week contained 2,655,000
cigars against 1,840,000 for the week of
last year, which is 815,000 excess in ci
gars, or almost 1,000,000.

A STRICKEN WOMAN.
Her Story Will Interest Many Others of Her
Sex.
From the News, Connersville, Ind.
The story of Mrs. Nellie M. Hed-
den, of No. 621 Summit avenue,
Connersville, Ind , contains an Im
portant lesson for many American
who suffer in silence rather than
face the ordeal that the usual treat
ment of their troubles entails. It 19
a story that rings with hoDest grat
itude and does not t«*ll half the mis
ery that the narator endured. Oili
er women who are suffering as Mrs.
Hedden did will know how to un
derstand and appreciate much that
cannot be told in a newspaper ar
ticle. Mrs. Heddens experience is
best given in her own words. She
says:
-“For nearly a year I endured ter
rible agonj’ caused by a general
breaking down of the nervous sys
tem, female weakness and suppres
sion of the periods. I suffered great
ly with bearing down pains and
was very weak and 9hort of breath.
My circulation was very bad, caus
ing numbness of limbs, dizziness
and headache all the time. My
heart would sometimes feel as if
there was a heavy weight on it. I
had never been healthy and strong,
so you can readily see that I was in
no condition to withstand such a
combination of ailments as I have
told you of.
“I grew worse very rapidly and
all the doctors I tried failed to
check my decline. A friend of my
husband told him how much good
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills had done
his wife so I commenced taurag
them and can now state that they
are the only relief I ever had. The
first box helped me so much that
the prospect began to look brighter
for me. I continued the treatment
for several weeks, using six boxes
in all.
“In conclusion I will say that if
aoy one, who is suffering the same
as I was will take Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills they will be rewarded.”

a faint, and on several occasions
thought I was going to die.
“So little blood had I that my
ears were almost transparent, and
my complexion was as white as a
sheet. I can scarcely describe my
sensations, but after rep ated treat
ment by my physicians 1 became
thoroughly discouraged.
“It was at this time that Dr. Wil
liams’ Pink Pills were recommend
ed to me, and I procured a box. Be
fore I had finished it I began to feel
the benefit to my health. This gave
me encouragement, and I began a
systematic course according to di
rections. At the end of the seventh
or eighth box, I forget which, I was
an entirely different girl. In addi
tion to having a sufficient quantity
and a belter quality of blood in my
veins I was relieved of that short
ness of breath and quick heart ac
tion which had been my chief trou
ble. My appetite returned and I
was enabled to do my daily duties
with a cheerfulness which I had
never before experienced. I always,
as a preventive, keep a box of Dr,
Williams’ Prak Pills in my room,
They are all they are represented
to be, and I say again that to them,
and to them alone, do I owe my re
storation to health.”
