terrible explosion! .
Too High Pressure.
In these days of keen competition in every
line, when the lmsiness man is compelled to
Iwticl his intellect and every energy to the
success of his lmsiness; the clerk, hook
keeper, professional man nnd laborer, to
drive themselves at a terrific rate, there can
he hut one result an explosion, which, if
not resulting in immedinto denth, leaves
them with shattered brains and Imtlies.
They are. running at too high pressure.
The strain is too great. Something must
nnd does give way. This is equally true of
women. Though their sphere is moio
limited, they have their daily burden, frets,
and worries, and the results arc the sttnie us
with their stronger companions.
This condition is growing worse every
day. The rapidity of its increase is awftil
to contemplate. Our- homes, hospitals, and
insane asylums nrc full of these unfoi tunnies,
und are being crowded still further. Tin re
is but one solution of the matter. IJeeoir,
nize the importance of the situation at once,
and take the necessary nicasurcs to over
come it. If you have failing memory, hot
(lashes, dizziness, nervous or sick lieadnche,
biliousness, irritability, melancholy, sleep
lessness, fainting, nervous dyspepsia, epi
lepsy, etc., know that any one of them isbut
a symptom of the calamity that may hefull
you, and even though you have used so-
called remedies and treated with reputable
phvsiciaiis with little or no benefit, give Dr.
Miles' Hestorative Nervine a trial. It is
the only remedy that may bo depended
upon for nervous di'orders.
" Two years ro I used I)r Miles' 7letortlvp
Nervine with marked benefit, nnd Inter induced
my son, who had been 6lck with cntarrh of tlio
bladder five years in tho bands nf our IjcM phy
sicians, to try It tORrther with Dr. Miles' Nerve
and Liver Mill He was so wonderfully benefited
tlint he l intending to business again. My wit
do ued Nervine with most excellent reruns.
Ml of u together havo not ucd more than
lottles of Nervine. Several of our friends hnto
iil" used It. and are prcatly improved." Louis

A. rOEEOAST OF ITS ARGUMENT.
The 1'rpsldcnt Will Not Dlwrgii from Ills
Present INillej-, lint Will llnrdly Urgo
Tlutt Force lie Hesorted to lit KciltlliK

VAHllijtoTON, Dec. IK. Tliu president's
special message on tliellHwnllnn question
will be from 2,fi00 to 8,000 words in length.
It probably will not go to coiikicsh before
Monday. Mennl line a steamer noils from
liuti Frnnclseo to Honolulu today. All
tlmt the stnl" nnd tinvy departtuent lint
collected on ihe Hnwnllnti question Is now
In the president's hands.
From n Kenllemnn who stands close to
the administration it is learned that In
his message the president will endeavor to
show Mint the queen was overthrown by
nets sanctioned by Minister Stevens, nnd
that ns they received tho approval of tho
United States and are considered by tho
present administration unjustified and
unfriendly, they must be undone. The
president will probably say that Minister
Willis was Instructed to (lrst decline for
mally the proposition for annexation, nnd
to then announce Mint tliu United States
demand that the queen be restored to
power, peacefully, but that If she was un
willing to bo Rented without Uie assur
ance of this government that she would
be protected from harm and retained in
power by United States force, then to
take no steps, but await Instructions from
tho United States.
The president will say Mint tho minister
has found tho provisional government
much stronger thr.n has been stated, or
that tho administration has been in
formed, and that its power was increas
ing each day. There was a strong senti
ment among tho better class of people
against the queen's return to power, nnd
thero were the strongest evidences Mint
the existing government would uno force
to defeat any move that would lend to
this end. All of the conditions werosuch
ns to prevent tho carrying outf his in
structions, and now, ns the president hnd
exhausted the prerogatives of his oflico to
bring nbout a settlement with Hawaii
without calling upon the naval force to
assist it, thero was no other reort for the
president but to leave the question of fur
ther action to congress.
It is believed that tho president will not
diverge from his present policy. It is cer
tain, however, Mint ho will hardly urge
that force be resorted to in seating the
queen.
