Poor Indeed are those weighed down by mental de- I pression. Men rise in this world ■ through buoyant nerve force. The loss of this force daily drags i down to failure some of the world's brightest minds. Such a condition is commonly known as Nervous Debility. When you lose self-confidence and feel your strength, energy and nerve force are slipping away, it is high time you seek sensible aid. You prefer health and success to misery and failure. have no equal as a nerve restorer. A couple of boxes will dispel that heavy feeling; the unnatural weariness dis- H appears and replaces languor with new B force and vigor of body and brain.

Colds if neglected lead to serious and often fatal consequences. Do not goon living with the continual dread of catching cold. There is no need of it. People who take cold easily do so because their system is in just the con dition to contract them. We know of something that will quickly drive colds out of tho system by invigorating the entire body. It is VI NOL, the great tonic reconstructor, that contains all the active curative principles found in cod liver oil. Here is ono letter that we nave had presented to us that we would like our friends to read: "I have been suffering front a severe cold for a number of weeks, and having heard so much about VINOL as being a euro for such troubles, I decided to try it. Two bottles entirely cured me and I now feel in better health than ever be fore in my life. J. M. BROWN, 319 W.

It first went down the stick till it came to the water; but, finding that there was no hope of getting off there, it returned to the top. It then went up and down the different sides of the stick, feeling and looking carefully, till it found there was no way of escape at any part. Then it went once more to the top and remained quiet for awhile, as if thinking what to do. Aft er a short pause the insect began to spin a tlireud long enough to reach from the stick to the edge of the pond. When this was done, it fastened one end of the thread to the top of the stick and let the rest of it float in the breeze. It waited till the wind stretched the thread out toward the side of the pond. The insect then went crawling along the thread till it reached the end. Aft er floating in the air a little while it alighted safely 011 the ground and scampered off to its home.

I have observed it over and over, as I have been in several wrecks myself, and it is the flrst two coaches or the last coach which is usually derailed or smashed into kindling wood. "Apropos of this, special cars are usu ally attached to the rear of the ex press train. This is the case when the president goes traveling, his special car being the last car on the train and con sequently open to the ftil 1 force of a rear end collision. It would be difiicult to place the president's car, or any other special car for that matter, in the center of the train. The train would have to be divided, the car coupled in and the train made up again. Its pres ence in the center would interrupt the free passage from one end of the train to the other by passengers and train men and would lie objectionable for other good and apparent reasons, prin cipally upon the score of privacy."— Washington i'ost. Tilt- tuiury of I)oinn Good. A magazine article 011 "The Luxury of Doing Good" quotes one or more writers to the effect that the impulse of benevolence is, in fact, a selfish one, because people please themselves by exercising the power of doing good. This kind of dissection of motives seems rather ungracious and unprofita ble, as, although logic of course could very easily reason out the matter to the same conclusion, in actual life to take delight in benefiting others is not, as a rule, characteristic of selfish natures. If we have the means of doing good at little or 110 cost of sacrifice to ourselves, whether in money, influence or any other form of helpfulness, it may per haps be truly said that we derive pleasure at a very cheap rate. But the vast majority of people can only do good at the cost of some little self de nial, and in those cases we can only ascribe their actions to the simple qual ities of kindness and good feeling.— Philadelphia Ledger. \ulhiiiK Left Fop C'linrilj-. Curious things are done in the sa cred name of charity. A woman got up a concert for a "worthy object," on the strength of which many persons bought tickets. After the concert the woman gave a champagne supper to the performers and some of her friends, which was paid for out of the proceeds of the concert, leaving noth ing for the charity. "I felt it was only courteous to give the performers who had helped us so much something in return," explained the woman naively. --•New York Press. Senatorial Itepnrtee. Once (luring a heated debate between Senator Joseph 11. Foraker of Ohio and Senator Joseph W. Bailey of Texas the question of law in Texas and law in Ohio came up. The passage became warm. Foraker, by way of a parting shot, told Bailey that if he would come to Ohio he would learn a great deal of law that he did not know. "If there is so very much law to be learned in Ohio," remarked Bailey, "I must advise the senator to spend all his spare time there. lie needs it." A Hit<l HI under.
