A horse in the lead pulls in vain when

A man's body is a Rood deal like a team of
horses. and must work harmoniously The
head may want to work, and strive ever so
bard to work, but if the body is balky and
sick the head will make no progress
The man who is out of condition physical
ly may as well give up trying to work men
tally. He will not be able to do irood work,
or satisfactory work and in the endeavor to
do so will only do himself further harm.
The reason that men have nervous exhaus
tion and prostration is that they try to work
the brain when the body is balky. The
right tiling for a man to do when he finds
he is out of sorts physically is to give the
mind a little rest, and promptly resort to
the right remedy for his physical ailments.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the best of all medicines for a balky body.
When the head aches, the appetite is poor,
the sleep is restless, the nerves are shaky
and both body and brain suffer from dull
ness and lassitude, it is time to resort to
this great remedy. It restores the appetite,
corrects all disorders of the digestion,
makes assimilation perfect, invigorates the
liver and purifies and nourishes the blood.
It is the great blood maker and flesh
builder. It is the best of nerve tonics and
restoratives. It makes both body and brain
alert and active. Medicine dealers have
nothing "just as good."
" I suffered five years with an ulcer and the
doctor here could not do me any good." writes
Mr John Jenkins, of Havwood. Madison Co ,
Va. "I took twelve bottles of I>r Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and lam well. I
would have in my grave if it had not been
for your medicine."
For constipation and indigestion. Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the most nat
ural and perfect euro ever devised. They
act gently but surely, and effect a perma

HARNESSING THE NILE.
The Ilrltlxli l.ut rrnmrnl'i Great ProJ
eel for HcilpcniliiK K|?>l>tlnn
Soil l»> Irrigation.
A tremendous task is to be under
taken by the English in Egypt—noth
ing less than the creation, for the pur
poses of irrigation, of a reservoir having
two or three times the superficial area
of Lake Geneva.
Engineering skill is to rearrange na
ture's surfuce on the Egyptian frontier,
and pond back into Nubia's a body of
water 140 miles long, crossing the trop
ic of Cancer, and extending southward
nearly to Korosko —a goodly step on
the journey to Abu-Simbel and Wady-
JJalfa—by means of a great dam across
the Nile at Assuan. The Pyramids and
the Sphynx have borne testimony
through the centuries to the grandeur
and power of execution which dwelt
within the Nile valley; and what more
fitting now than that the same valley
he the theater of a gigantic engineering
exploit audacious perhaps, but certain
of success, and ministering to man's
necessities, rather than to his vanity?
As a building achievement the
scheme is on a scale worthy of a Ra
meses or a Pharaoh. To create in the
heart of the African desert a lake hav
ing; from two to three times the super
ficial area of Lake Geneva, in Switzer
land, and control it with scientific pre
cision, so that the impounded flood may
be turned into distant channels at will,
is a stupendous undertaking. Hut the
engineers claim that their plants can be
carried out to the letter; they have es
timated the exact cost of thedam, com
puted almost to the gallon the volume
of water that will be imprisoned, and
figured the necessary resistance to be
provided at every point of the masonry.
In Cairo, the experts of the ministries
of public works and finance, likewise,
have calculated to a nicety the sum
from taxation that will come into the
public treasury through the country's
augmented productiveness.
Subordinate to the great dam, a
smailer one, not unlike the barrage at
the apex of the delta, ten miles to the
north of Cairo, is to be made at Assiut.
Its function will be to give a sufficient
head to the river to force the water into
the system of irrigation channels that
"Vein hundreds of thousands of acres be
tween Assiut and Cairo. The comple
tion of the Cairo barrage (it was be
gun by Mehemet Ali Pasha, from the
plans of a French engineer, but not
made effective until England took the
country in hand) so developed cotton
culture as to add to the public revenue
of thecountry at least $10,000,000 annual
ly. It may safely be concluded that the
Assiuan reservoir is but one of a scries
which will in time be constructed south
ward to the Victoria Nyanza. The re
establishment of khedival authority at
Khartoum will determine this. —Ex-
Consul-General F. C. I'enfield, in Cen

AN ECCENTRIC SHELL.
The St rim is e Action* of n Sixty-Pound
Projectile Tlint Struck the
Halt Inaore.
Aside from the bad marksmanship of
the Spanish gunners, there seemed to
be an extraordinary lack of killing
quality in the shells which hit our ves
sels. There probably was never be
fore known such an experience as that
of the Baltimore. A GO-pound armor
piercing shell, fired undoubtedly from
the Canaoao battery on shore, entered
the Baltimore about two feet above the
upper deck on the starboard side, be
tween the after six-inch gun and the
three-pounder mounted on the rail.
This shell, after piercing two thick
nesses of steel one-quarter of an inch
thick, struck the deck and penetrated
till it reached one of the heavy deck
beams, which it cracked clear through.
It was then deflected upward, coming
out of the. wooden deck, and tearing its
way through the steel combing of the
engine room skylight, again passing
through two quarter-inch plates. As it
had been turned sideways on rising
from the deck, the holes it made
through these plates were about 18
inches long by six inches wide—ragged,
torn spots, very unlike the clean-cut
punctures made by such a shell when
entering point foremost. Leaving the
skylight, the shell, ranging slightly for
ward, struck the recoil cylinder of the
port S'ix-iuch gun on the quarter deck,
disabling the carriage. At last it met
an object strong enough to resist its at
tack the steel shield, which curved in
front of the gun in a complete seini-
circle. Following this curve, the shell
came out. 011 Ihc forward side of the
carriage, traveling in a direction ix
actly opposite its former course, until
it reached the starboard side of the ship
again, where it struck a steel venti
lator, and was finally stopped. In oth
er words, this shell passed through one
inch of steel, ripped up a deck, broke
a deck be.'i in and bulged a shield about
an inch out of it's original shape. It
crossed the Baltimore from starboard
side to port and back again to the star
board side, and jet had hit none of the
many men engaged at the guns near
by. It is true it was the cause of wound
ing two otticers and six men, for in its
course it exploded two three-pounder
shells which were lying on the deck
ready for use in the small pun on the
Baltimore's! rail; but directly it. injured
no one, and it is regarded as holding the
record for eccentric action.—Joseph L.
Stickney, in Harper's Magazine.
