Almost Insane From
Nervousness.
Dr. Miles' Nervine My
Salvation.
Do yeu enjoy life, or do you sleep «• poofrly
that you are more tired when you get up
than when you go to bed ? I» your appetite
failing, are you getting thin; does your bead
ache, back ache, eyes tire easily ? These are
symptoms of a nervous disorder, which
should be promptly treated or fainting spells
mental and physical nervousness, morbid
fears and loss of control will lead to insanity
o- mental irresponsibility. Strengthen the
nerves with Dr. Miles' Nerviae. It quickly
supplies nerve-force and vitality to the weak
ened system, bringing sleep, appetite and
health. .
"I was almost insane with nervous trouble.
Could not eat or sleep. Could see no pleas
ure in life; indeed, life waa a burden to me,
and I even prayed God to release me from
it. Three doctors did all they could for me,
all to no purpose. I was in despair of ever
petting better when I saw the advertisement
of Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine. I got a
bottle, commenced taking it and wrote you for
advice. I followed it carefully, taking your
Nervine, Restorative Tonic, and Nerve and
I.iver Pills. Those remedies were my sal
vation. It is some months since I stopped
taking the Tonic but I keep the Nervine in
the house all the time, as it is a friend that I
do not feel safe without. If any sufferer
should doubt the truth of this statement, let
them write to me and I will do my best to
drive all doubt from their mind. '—MRS.

BUT ONE "IDEA" IN IOWA.
The Muscatine Journal, referring to
the debate on among lowa Republic
ans, repeats that "this Republican pink
tea Is a family discussion" and "never
was and never will be a family quar
rel."
"Thunderstorms," observes the Bur
lington Hawkeye, "are good things to
clear the atmosphere. Possibly the po
litical one which has recently passed
In lowa means conservative and har
monious action at the next Republican
state convention."

Follow Where Christ Leata.
If we go astray, it shall not be for
lack of a bath, but for not following
Where Christ leads. We are simply to
go forward to Christltkeness.—Rev.
Mr. Helms, Methodist, Worcester,
Masß.
A Little Early Riser
now and then, at bedtime will cure con
stipation, billiousness and liver troubles.
DeWitt's Little Karly Risers are the fam
ous little pills that cures by arousing the
secretions.|moving the bowels gently, yet
eth'ctively, and giving such tone and stre
ngth to the glands of the stomach and
liver that the cause of the trouble is re

turn of the complaint. Sold by all Drug

A Coatliul Warfare.
The conflict of the world spirit and
God Is analogous to the continual war
fare waged between the flesh and the
spirit in the person of every member
of the human race.—Rev. F. W. Norris,
Episcopalian, Brooklyn.
The Wastes of tne Body
Every seven days tlie]blood, muscles and
bones of a man of average size loses two
pounds of wornout tissue. This waste
cannot be replenished and the health and
strength kept up withont perfect digestion.
When the stomach and digestive organs
fail to perform their functions, the stren
gth lets down, health gives way, and dis
ease sets up, Kodol Dyspepsia Cure en
ables the stomach and digestive organs to
digest and assimilate all of the wholesome
food that may be eaten into the kind of
blood that rebuilds the tissues and pro
tects the health and strength of the mind
anil body. Kodol cures Indigestion, Dys
pepsia and all stomach troubles. It is an
ideal spring tonic. Sold by all Druggists.
■sllgloa larlekti Life.
Religion satisfies because It enriches
life. It opens the way into a new kind
of joy. It brings into play a new
range of activity. Thus Jesus said
that he came that we might have life
and that we might have it more abun
dantly. He came to widen out the cir
cle of human appreciation. The pur
pose of religion thus considered is akin
.with the purpose of all progress. It la
to teach new truth, to awaken new
aspiration, to develop new possibilities,
to round out more fully the natural life
of man.—Rev. George Hodges, Pitta
burs.
The X.Bays
Recent experiments, by practical tests and
examinations with the aid of the X-Ray
establish it as a fact that Catarrh ol the
Stomach is not a disease of itself, but
that it results from repeated attacks of in
digestion. "How Can I Cure My Indi
gestion?" Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is curing
thoueands. Is will cure you of indiges
tion and dyspepsia, and prevent or cure
Catarrh of the Stomach. Kodol digests
what you eat —makes the stomach sweet.

ORGANIZING A GRANGE.
Look Well to the Charter Member
ship Holl.
Hon. Aaron Jones, master of the na
tional grange, speaks wisely when he
says:
Care should be used In getting good
charter members. They are the founda
tion on which the future usefulness of
the grange will rest. With good charter
members the grange will grow in num
bers, In usefulness and influence and be of
great benefit to the Order at large and of
great advantage to Its own members. Un
less you can organize a grange of the beat
men and women in the location where the
grange Is to be organized do not organize
a grange at all.
Every grange deputy should commit
to memory the last sentence above
quoted. This rule carefully observed
would save trouble later on. Lay well
your foundations in establishing a
grange. Your best citizens are none
too good. Organize well or not at all.
Objectionable men and women can be
kept out after the organization is form
ed, but it is often a difficult matter to
prevent their joining as charter mem
bers. Use tact at this point. The dep
uty's responsibility just here is great,
but he should meet it unflinchingly.
EMPIRE STATE PATRONS.
The Grange a Growing Power In
New York.
The yearly session of the New York
state grange in Syracuse made a very
pleasant and impressive revelation of
the growth of the Patrons of Hus
bandry in the Empire State. The re
ports generally showed the Order to be
a growing power in the state. It is
not easy to understand why farmers in
all the states do not realize the value
of the grange as the promoter and pro
tector of the interests of farmers, but
it is reassuring to note that intelligent
farmers are coming into the Order in
greater numbers than ever before. The
community that has a live grange is
always a community ia which intelli
gence predominates, in which refined
society rules, in which education is
valued, in which scientific agriculture
is the rule and in which the rural folk
are seen at their best. Kew York leads
most of the states in advanced country
life, and it is proper that the grange
should be a conspicuous feature of ru
ral life in the state. Members of the
Order everywhere will l»e pleased to
note the growth of the grange In New
York.—New York Farmer.
New Jeraey State Orange.
The New Jersey state gringe was re
ported at its last annual session to be
in a flourishing condition. Total assets
were $33,444.28. O. F. W. Oaunt of
Gloucester was re-elected master for
the ensuing year. Granges are doing
a considerable business In :o-operative
buying, the banner grange reporting a
business of $33,000. These resolutions
were adopted: Favoring tke appoint
ment of a committee for the purchase
of fertilizing material for all the

The chances are that a one-time advertisement or a very small
advertisement will not pay. It is only continuous, persistent effort,

It is just so with advertising. The first ads you drop in only
serve as a foundation. They do not serve as anything if you do not
drop in enough of them. If you keep on piling one on top of the
