SfilQTHERIHG SENS&TIOHS IT HiGiT; PALPI
TITIOI OH SLIGHT EXERTION.
Doctors Named it Variously as Asthma, Goitre,
Nervous Prostration and Heart Trouble.
The Patient Describes the Case. For Anyone who
has had the Symptoms the Account
will be Interesting.
From the Reporter,
On of the most V-aittiful of nature's
lovely spot is the varied township of Tall
mitJje iu Summit County, Ohio. Here are
rolliiic, undulating hills and beautiful forest
w-enery : hill, wood and meadow spread their
charming panorama lefore the eyes of the
traveler and as he looks he thinks, here is
Arcadia, where one may live after nature's
model in beautiful simplicity and revel in
health and happiness.
Yet, even here in th: Eden, where fruit
and flowers and pastoral scenes wean the
in-art from the city and its turmoil, insidious
disease steps in and ib-stroys a Paradise. It
was thus in a lieautiful hillside home; sur
rounded by an orchard, w if h flower beds sur
rounding it. the cor.y white house looks like
the alKxle f comfort. It is the home of E.
J. Vance, who cultivates small fruits in
summer and in wiuter plies the trade of
l.nx.in maker, p.lest with a lovely wife,
d:irlm; child and a pretty farm, an outsider
mi-.'ht look in vain for the thorn hidden
unonsr the res. But a few years apo this
life Ixsume wretched when the lather and
husband wa afflicted with what appeared to
be an incurable malady. 1 "urine the still,
small hours of nicht when sleep and rest,
twin blessing, hover over mankind, a ter
rible sunVrinff would seize upon him;
irchi.-iliy the disease wore upon him, wreek
insr bis nervous system and clutching with
riM liners at heart and brain. This went
-in for a longtime and fricn.ls saw no relief
Ix f.ire him but the last sleep of death. Hut
it is now all changed ; freed from this over
haiipn? heritage of illness. E. J. Vance is
once more able to enjoy life, the comforts of
home and the joys of family love. How it
happened is recorded in the following inter
view ;
' I had treated with so many physicians"
taid Mr. Vance, speakinir of his recovery
from his lone-time illness, "that I besan to
l-li.ve nothing could le done for me- I
tried two doctors at the Falls and then spent
a lot of money on specialists who made great
boasts in Akron, but 1 crew no better.
"What did thev say aibsl you?" "My
h- art was affected. I stitfered so severely
with heart trouble that I wonder I lived to
I !! t'letale. My life was a torture. I x-
s-fii every time I had a lad spell, and that
cas nearly every nii'ht, that I should die.
I jrrew so nervous I was well nich insane."
' How then do you account for your pres
ent healthy condition? You certainly look
v ry w-il new."
"'When 1 was nearly distractel with the
Ci:ti if my dis.-a.se and my inability to pet
elp. a buy cnine aloistr and threw into my

than c-'l. ati-l as wion as I was able to eet
out I drove over to t'uyahoea Falls and
b'Wjht the Pink Pills for Pale People at the

" And the r-ult "
" I have never Lad another attack of the
ooint.tiiiit."
"What was the nature of your disease ?"
" Doctors named it variously, as asthma,
citre. nervous prostration and heart
tro'iMe."
" What did they call the disease?"
"Most of them said it was heart disease:
tm told me I had the worst form of heart
liiwasp. valvular disease of the heart, and
a.ss'iT-1 nie I could never lie any better."

"I took it recularly until July last; and
I keep it on hand for fear of a return."
" How did the medicine affect you ? "
"Apparently like so much water; but the

"To the rink Pills for Tale People and

such as locomotor ataxia and paralysis succumb
to this wonderful medicine as readily as the

semblance of fraud -n dist-over-d. Their
fame has spread to the fur ends of civilization
and there is hardly a drue store in this country

Prrsiaa Tear.
A physician who has just returned
from a visit to Persia says that the Per
sians still believe that human tear are
a remedy fcr certair. chronic diseases.
At every funeral the bottling of tuonrn
trs' tears is one cf tbe chief features of ,
the ceremonies. Each of the mourners
is presented with a sprn.j with which
to nicp off his face and ryes, and after
the burial they are presented to the
priest, who squeezes the tears into bot
tles, w hieu he keeps. This custom is one
of the old-st known ir the east and has
prcbaLly Km practice! ty the Persians
for thousands of years. Mention is made
cf it in the. Old Testament

Feminine Suicide.
Statistical tables yield curious In
formation to tho careful stud'.mt. For
instance, they show that over ono-third
of tho woicen who kill themselves aro
not yet 25 years of age. They show that
women take poison, whera men shoot
themselves, and tbfy shW ihat tlei
poor, sirk and tbe infirm are not by
any kind cf reckoning iu tho majority.
A physician who makes a study cf at
tempted suicide said this:
"Get a girl past 25, and she'll go
through poverty, sickness and desertion
aud misery enough to kill ten nun.
The more people sufTer tho more they
cling to life. I've seen it iu hospitals
It is not tho patients with tho incurable
diseases or the hopeless cripples who
beg to die, but the young, strong, vital
woman, who hates pain and rvsu't
want to suffer it, even for thonianc
of getting well. It is a strange thing,
this getting of a girl pxst 25, but net
uncommon. Any physiciau with a large
family practice will tell you cf a dozen
case's in his own circle of knowledge.
Sometimes it is called pyromania, some
times kleptomania, sometimes catalep
sy, sometimes hysteria, some times feign
ing and sometimes tantrums it's all
the same thing nothing else to da"
Another physician told of a pirl who
committed suicide and who leftaLotc
stating that her reason was that shy
was tired cf doing tho same things over
and over every day. Tho monotony of
life bad Ixwine unbearable to her.

So. 13 In Rome.
An observing tourist who visits Rome
and walks through the streets is doubt
less surprised that there are very few
houses bearing the ominous number
13, nearly all the houses that should
bear those figures being marked 12 b
or 11a. Nor is tho superstition re
garding tho fateful 13 absent from sci
cutiflc and phlegmatic Germany, for
the other day a merchant iu Berlin ap
plied to the magistrate of the district
to have tho number of his shop changed
from No. 13 to No. 12b. The magis
trate, however, refused to grant the pe
tition. In Frankfort, on the other hand,
the owners cf buildings bearing No. 13
are allowed to change tho figures upon
a simple application to tho proper an
thorities. New York Tribune.
Good I or a Iaracraph.
A well known Dublin journalist tells
the following anecdote:
One night as a messenger from the
office of an evening paper was passing
along the quays on the banks of the
Li (ley he heard the sound of some one
struggling in the water.
' "Are yon drowning?" ho shouted.
"I am," replied a feeble voice from
the water.
"What a pity!'' es.id tho lad consol
ingly. "You are just too late for the
last edition tonight, but cheer up you'll
have a nice little paragraph all to your
self in tho morning." London Tit
Bits. Da Maurier'a Portrait.
George Da Manner's last portrait cf
himself pictured a man faintly rceni
bliug the author of "Trilby" and pro
vided with the wings of an angel and
the tail and hoofs of something cl.-c.
Over it he wrote: "sune seotu to think
he's pit wings like an angel; some,
that he's got a cloven foot and a forked
tail, ll'i is quite an ordinary little man,
I assure yoa."

What Do You Know?
A Great Deal Depends on Knowing
the Right Thing Sometimes.
Do yon know all aNmt your kidneys ?
D) yon know their real functions?
A school boy writes in composition :
"YVc could not lire without kidneys."
He might dd. some don't live with them.
The man who "doesn't know he has
kidneys''
May lie sure his are in good order.
Tbe man who knows he lias them,
lias been told so by his kidneys.
Sick kidneys talk right through the
back.
Sound kidneys never complain.
The kidneys filter the blood.
If filtered throuj;h sick kidneys, th
blood is sick.
Sick blood means uric pobon.
Means urinary derangement, means dia
betes. Means T-right's Disease mms Death.
Do you know the silver iiair.g to that
cloud?
There is one covering its entire field.
Doan's Kidney Piils are the sunny side
Of every stae of kidney miicries.
And perfect rasters of ilu-ir diseases.

right thing.

The Rver Hungry IComla.
Peace or war. Russian aggression ner
tr stands still, and it is most character
istic cf her patient aud farsighted di
plomacy that she reaps more in peace
t than at the close of her most successful
wars. To explain this ceaseless and
puuseless a.lvauco upon all hci' neigh
bors they tell us that she wants an open
port on an open ocean that it is absurd
to ask an empiro like Russia to put np
with an outlet to the sea that is blocked
ij ice four months in every year. But
Ihat is no answer to the accusation, if
iccusation it be, of nnivers-al aggres
lion. The possession of fuch a port is
aot the cud, but the means.
There is no end to Russian ambition.
Each point won is a stepping rtoue to
tho next. Eastern Liberia has no glut
of merchandise straggling for a vent at
Vladivostok, tier would Cour.t uitiuoplo
be any better fitted for the export grain
trado than Odessa. The port may foster
a trade as yet in its infancy, but this is
just another reason for saying that it is
not the goal of Russian aspiration, but
auly a milestone on the road. If not for
smpire and for competitive trade why
seek an open peirt at all? Still less can
the constant absorption of new territory
be explained by any superfluity of popu
lation in tho old. It is nothing, after
all, but the genuine earth hunger, the
lutt of unlimited dominion. Black
wood's Magazine.
The Advantages of Rest.
There is no Lett.'-r preventive of nerv
ous exhaustion than regular, unhurried,
muscular exercise. If we could moder
ate our hurry, lessen enr worry and in
crease our open air exercise, a lurge
proportion of nervous diseases would be
abolished. For those who cannot get a
sufficient holiday the best substitute is
an occasional day in lied. Many whose
nerves are constantly strained in their
daily avocation have discovered this for
themselves. A tspauish merchaut in
Barcelona told his doctor that he always
went to bed for two or three days when
ever he cr.uld bo spared from his busi
ness, atid he laughed at those who p. nt
their holidays on toilsome mountains.
A hard worked woman, who has fur
many years conducted a large wholes;- !
business, retains excellent nerves at j.:i
advanced age, owing, it is lelhv?d, to
her habit of taking on day a wee k in
bed. If wc cannot avoid frequent agita
tion, we ought, if possible, to give th"
nervous system time to recover itself be
tween the shocks. Even an hour's seclu
sion tifter a good lunch will deprivn a
hurried, anxions day f much of its in
jury. The nt rves can i.fteu be overcome

controlled ly strength of wilL House
wife. The Life cf a Clam.
The clam's body is completely en
shrouded in the mantle, except for two
openings through one of which tho foe:
can be pushed out. Tbe other is for tho
siphon, or what is commonly known as
the "ueck" of the clam. In some re
spects the clam may be better off than
we are, for he has a littio Lrain in his
foot and also a gland for secreting
strong fibers. With this he spina a Lys
sus by which he can attach himself to
whatever he likes. Ho does not even
have to search for his food, but waits
for it to come to hici. He makes a bur
row in the mud or Rand, attaching him
self to tho bottom by the byssus. Then
ho thrusts his siphen np through the
mud and water until it reaches the sur
face. The siphon is made np cf two
tubes, tho water flowing in through one
and out through the other.
When the inflowing current, laden
with minute plants and animals, reach
es the gill chamber, some of these nre
sifted out and retained for fowl, while
the water and waste matter flow out
through the other tube. Margaret W.
Lcighton in Popular Science Monthly.
The Dark Side of ChrUtian America.
"We have now in America a popula
tion c.f 70,000,000 of people, aud yet
7."0,000, we are told, be-long to tho
criminal class," writes Dwight I.
Moody in his paper in "Mr. Moody's
Bible Class" in The Ludies'Home Jour
nal. "Aud this in Christian America.
It is said that iu six months 30 gradu
ates of two large European universities
were found by one rescue mission in
New York city. Nor are the American
colleges without representatives in the
great city slums. Our daily papers are
but a living chronicle of the fearful
hold which sin has upon us as a nation.
A man must have lost all his senses
who says that sin is not inherent, that
it is only a physical weakness which
culture may ultimately overcome. Ven
eering the outer man will make him no
better within.''

Ocs feature rather surprising to an
American is that every park is made
for u.-e. There is no fear lest the grass
may Ui injured, but in every ground
rdapted for them are cricket and foot
ball fields, picnic grounds, croquet
lawns, tenuis courts, bowling greens,
the use i f which is permitted for a mere
ly nominal paymeut Every park, large
or small, has one or more concerts each
wee k during the summer, paid fur by a
neighborhood subscription. Diss need
exists for largo parks than in American
rities of th- same sizff, because the bet

Fciteoek'B Feather Unlucky.
Unluckiness seems to be confined to
the bringing of the t;iil feathers of Ju
no's bird into a house. I am not aware
that this idea is held outside this coun
try, and if it is confined to England
many various causes may have led to
tho belief, which possibly arose in com
paratively modern times no earlier
than the crusades.
Nothing is more probable than that
several crusaders brought homo the gor
geous feathers as curiosities, a strange
sight, and so likely to make a deep im
pression. Nothing is easier to conceive
than that some misfortune, dt-ath from
disease, loss of wealth or other "bad
luck" may have happened to more than
one possessor fcf the beautiful feathers,
aud that they would on that account
soon be credited with being the cause.
A belief cf this kind ouco started is of
rapid growth i.nd very long lived.

Want of Tliue.
Tho man who immerses himself in
business that he may accumulate vast
property, or that his family may live
luxurious and idle lives, has no right to
plead want of time for other claims. It
is not true that he cannot comply with
them, hut that he has chosen not to do
so. The woman who, absorbed iu a
rouud of gayety and society, di - lares
that she has no time to tram her chil
dren and superintend her household is
uttering an excuse as vain as it is false.
She simply decidis to use h-. r ti.-ne fcr
Other purposes. And this liberty of
choice belongs to every one, in spite of
any desire or attempt to disclaim it

So Am I.
An elderly gentleman living in mid

Oil one occasion, when he had been im
bibing pretty freely, he was met by the
clergyman cf the parish in which ho
lived.
"Drunk again, John!'' said the pas
tor. "So am I! So cm I!" replied the
truthful John, much to the amazement
of his spiritual adviser. Spare Mo

"No," said the gentleman who is

but man is naught but poor, weak clay,

"I realize that," said the collector.
"1 am glad yoa do, my friend."
