Doctor Tried but Could Not R.elieve Me Of Headache, Dizzi ness , Twitching. Dr. Miles' Nervine Did Relieve and Cure. "The doctor tried but couldn't relieve me" is a phrase commonly met with in the letters we receive from grateful patients. The reason is plain, The doctor tries to cure the symptom and neglects the disease. In all cases of chronic headache, nervousness, weakness, general debility, dizzy spells, loss of appetite inability to sleep, lack of energy, loss of Hesh, lack of interest, morbid tend encies, hysteria, the disease is a nervous dis order and some means must be taken to strengthen and restore the nervous system. Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine is performing wonders every day and will cure you as it has thousands of others. Read how quickly it acted in the following case: "A few years ago I was greatly troubled with nervousness and indigestion. While at work a dizzy spell would come over me and 1 would be forced to stop and rest. I suffered terribly from headaches and my nervousness was so marked as to cause almost constant twitching of the muscles. My doctor tried i.ut could not relieve me. I finally began the use of Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and continued until 1 have nsed four bottles, although 1 have not had a dizzy spell since taking the first dose. lam very thankful foi what your medicine has done for me and i-hall take pleasure in recommending it whenever I can."— FRANK P.

We find blm going to the temple. He was also an example of religious activity. We find him doing good. Some people are devoted Chris tians, but they are not active. Others are active, but not devoted. Christ was both active and devoted.—liev. Dr. Meeley, Methodist, Brooklyn. If you feel ill and need a pill Why not purchase the best?

Ask for De- Witt's—the genuine. Follow Where Christ Leads. If we go astray, It shall not be for Lack of a bath, but for not following where Christ leads.

The method was to cast the blade rather broader at the back than usual, with a hollow running down It. This was half filled with quicksilver and sealed up. The Idea was that when a i blow was struck with such a sword the quicksilver would fly to the point and so increase the weight of the blow. This theoretical advantage, however, did not at all counterbalance the gen eral clumsiness of the weapon and its unhandiness in guarding, and so the mercurlale swords, as they were called, ! from which their Ingenious Inventor ! hoped so much, were rather military curiosities than practical successes.— London Answers. Something to Be Tbanktll For. A Scotchman who has a keen appre ciation of the strong characteristics of his countrymen delights In the story of a druggist known both for hi* thrift and his philosophy. Once he was aroused from a deep sleep by the ringing of his night bell. He went down to bla little shop and ■old a dose of rather nauseous medicine to a distressed customer. "What profit do you make oat o' that?" grumbled hi 9 wife. "A ha'penny," waa the cheerful an swer. "And for that bit o' money you'll lie awake maybe an hour," she said Impa tiently. "Never grtraible o'er that, woman," was his placid answer. "The dose will keep hlni awoke all night. We must 1 thank heaven we ha' the profit and none o' the pain o' this transaction." A Primitive Cloelt. I ▲ naturalist, while Sangir, one of those islands of the In dian ocean known as the Celebes, or Spice islands, found a curious time re corder lodged at the house of a rajah. Two bottles were iirmly lashod togeth er and fixed in a wooden frame. A quantity of black sand ran from one bottle into the other in Just half an hour, and when the upper bottle was empty the frame was reversed. Twelve short sticks, marked with notches from one to twelve, were hung upon a string. A hook was placed between the stick bearing the number of notches corre sponding to the hour last struck and the one to be struck next. The sentry announced the time by striking the hours on a large gong. Ooaaplracr. "Squlbob, you are still reporting for the Dally Bread, aren't you?" "Tea."
