    Indicate as 6urely as any physical
symptom 6hows anything, that the or
gan* and tissues of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their siutenauco from
the blood, and if the blood is thin, im
pure or insufficient, they are in a state
of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result of tlio general dissatisfaction is
what wo call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla
nation of tho whole matter.
Tho cure for Nervousness, then, is
•imple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hood's Sarsaparilia, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful uouishmeut they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and hoalth.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hood's Sarsapa
rilia. Head tho next column.

•' With pleasure I will state that Hood's
Sarsaparilia has helped me wonderfully. For
several months I oould not lie down to sleep
on account of heart trouble and also
Prostration of tho Nervos.
For threa years I ha I been doctoring, but
could not get cured. I received relief for a
while, hut not permanent. Soon after begin
ning to take Ilood'n Sarsaparilia there was a
change for tho better. In a short time I was
feeling splendidly. I now rest well and am
able to do work of whatever kind. If I had
not tried llood'3 Sarsaparilia I do not know
what would have become of mo. I keep it in
my house all the time, and other members of
the family take it, and all say there is
Nothing Like Hood's
Sarsaparilia. I have highly recommended it
and one of my neighbors has commenced
taking it. I recommend Hood's Sarsaparilia
at every opportunity." Mas. S. BBADDOCK,

Of sweet degress—
Liko those in Jewry hearts of old;
My love, if thou wouldst wholly please,
Hold in thy hand a harp of gold,
And touch the strings with fingers light,

THE REUNION,
! _ IHE stago rattled
Y \J into the villageone
/ v pleasant July day
/ \ and drew up at
-• 55Z51* the store. Th e
Sfcjp fr-'tv-J Ch A. B. man, the
vrs only passenger,
vjv. u climbed out of tho
S*- : . lumbering vehicle,
sfeej I dragging after him
i his nondescript
traveling bag. Ho limped up tho stops
in tho wake of the driver, who was
helping the storekeeper with tho mail
pouch, and once on the porch stopped
nud nodded n gruff greeting at the
three men who were seated on tho
bench kicking their heels together—
tlio Chronic Loafer, tho School Teacher
and tho Miller. The trio gazed at tho
new arrival solemnly; at his broad
brimmed black slouch hat, which,
though drawn down over his left tem
ple, did not hide the end of a baud of
courtplaster; at hi 3 bluo coat, two of
its brass buttons missing; at his trou
sers, several rents in which had been
clumsily sewed together.
"From your appearance one would
judgo that you had come home from a
battle instead of a reunion at Gettys
burg," the School Teacher remarked.
"Ho'il never como out of no battle
lookiii' like thet," tho Chronic Loafer
crioil.
"I've como home 'foro my 'scursion
ticket cxpiieil," said thoG. A. li. mnu,
removing his hat and disclosing the
great' patch of plaster that adorned his
forehead. "Getteespurg was a sight
hotter for mo yesterday 'an in 'o3.
But I've got to the end of my story."
"So thet same old yarn you'vo ben
tellin' afc every camp fire senco the
war is finished at last. That's a
blessiu'."
The veteran seated himself comfort
ably upon his upturned satchel and
began:
"Fer the benyfit of tbo Teacher, who
I aiu't never seen at our camp fires,
I'll repeat my experience at the pattlc
of Gettcespurg, anil then tell yer all
'bout my second fight there. I served
as a corporal in the 295 th Pennsylvauy
Volunteers, an' was honorably dis
charged in 'GA."
••For which you draws a pension,"
the Chronic Loafer ventured.
"Thet ain't so. J got the malary
an' several other complaints that I got
down on the Peninsula thet hinders
file workiiT steady. But thet aiu't
here nor there. Our rctchment was
alius known as the Bloody Pennsylvauy
lletchment, for we'd beeu in the front
in every fight in tho Wilterness and
lied some very desperate engagements.
Whenever thero was any chartchin'
to bo done, we done et; ef thero was
a fyloru hope wo was in et; if they
was a breastwork to bo took, wo took
it; an'by the end of two years §cch
fightin' wo was pretty bal cut up.
When we come tor tho fight at Get
teespurg et was decided as they wasn't
many of us left we'd better be put to
guardin' baggage wagons. Thet was
a kinder work didn't need many men,
but took fighters in caset the enemy
givo tho boys in front a slip and
sneaked in on our rear.
•'The trains, with several brigades,
among which our rctchment, was a
couple of miles behind Cemetary Hill
during tho first day's fighting; but on
tho second day we was ordered back
about twenty-five miles. Et was pretty
hard tcr have ter bo drivin' off inter
tho country watching a lot of mulea
when the boys was hevin' et hot bang
ing away at tho enom.y, but there was
orders, and a soldier alius lies ter obey
orders.
"The figlitin' begin early on the sec
ond day an' we could hear the roar of
the guns ail* see the smoke risin' in
cloulds an' then settlin' down over the
country. Wo got our wagons going
an' I tell yer we felt pretty blue, fer
tho wounded and the stragglers begin
tor come hobbliu' back bringin' bad
news. Tliey would tell how the boys
■was being all cut up along tho Em*
mettsburg road and how we'd better
move fast, fer we was losin', an' then
they'd hobble away agin. Then be
sides the trouble with the mules and
wagons and the wounded, we had to be
continual watchin' for them Confed'rit
cavalry wo was expectin' tor pounce
down on us. Eveuin'.como au' wo lay
to an' prepared for tho night. Tho
fires was started aud tho collec set
boilin', an' the fellers had achancet to
set down and rest for a while.
"The wounded and the stragglers
that jest tilled tho country were com
in'm all tho time, sometimes alone,
sometimes in twos and threes, some
with their arms tied up in all sorts of
queer ways, their heads bandaged, or
hobbliu' on sticks, about tho iniscra
blest lookiu' set of men I ever seen.
The noiso of tho light had stopped, an'
the whole country was quiet, as though
nothin' had bum happeuin'. Tho quiet
and tho dark aud the fear wo was go-
in' ter meet the enemy at any moment
made et mighty unpleasant, and what
with the stories them wounded fcliys
give us we didn't rest very easy. At
10 o'clock I went out on tho picket
lino an' seemed 1 hadn't been there
more than an hour when I made out a
dark figure of a man comin' through
the fields very slow like. Mo an' the
fellys with me watched sharp. Sudden
ho stopped and sank down in a heap.
Then he picked himself up and came
staggerin' on. 110 couldn't hev ben
more 'an fifty yards away when he
throw up his hands and pitched for'a'd
on his face. Mo an' 'nother feller run
out an' picked him up an' carried him
inter the fire. Hut et wasn't no use ;
he was dead.
"There was a bullet wound in his
shoulder and his clothes was soaked
with blood thet hed ben drippin',
drippin' as ho walked tell he fell the
last time. 1 opened his coat and in his
.pocket found a letter, stamped and di
rected apparent to his wife—thet was
all to tell who he was. So I went
back to the lino thinkin' no more of
et an' never noticin' thet thet man's
coat 'ud 'a' fit two of him.
"Mornin' come, and tho firin' begin
over toward Getteespurg, an' we could
BOG tho smoke risiu' agin an' hear tho
big guns roarin' tell the ground be
neath our feet seemed to swing up an'
down. I tell you uns thet was a grand
sight. Wo was awful excited, fir et
seemed like the first two days hed gone
ng'in ns, an' more stragglers an' the
wounded come limpin' back moro an'
more, all with bad news.
"I was gittin' nervous, an' thinkin'
an' thinkin' an' wishiu' I was where
the fun was. Then I coucided maybe
I wasn't so bad off, fer I might a be'ii
killed, liko tho poor felly I seen tho
night before. I remembered tho let
ter an' got ct out. I didu't 'tend ter
open et, but final I thot et wouldn't bo
safe ter go mailiiT letters without
knowin' jest what was in 'em, so I read
ct. Et was wrote ou a piece of wrap
pin' paper with a pencil, au' in an
awful bad baud-write. But when I
got through it I sot plumb down an'
cried like a cliil'.
"Et wus from John Parker to his
wife Mary,livin' out in Western Penn
sylvany. He begius bo mentiouin'
how he was on the eve of a big fight,
an' 'tended ter do his duty, even if et
como to fallin' at his post. Et was
hard, ho sayd, but be know'd sbo'd
ruther hev no huaban' 'an a coward.
He was allu3 thinkin' of her 'an the
baby he'd never seen, but felt sat'sfuc
tion in knowin' they was well fixed.
"Et was sorrerful, bo continyerd,
thet sho was liko ter be a widdy so
young, an' ho wasn't goiu' ter bo
mean about et. He allers kuow'd,
he sayd, how she'd hod a haukerin'
after young Silas Quincy 'foro she
tuk him. If he fell he tho't she'd hot
ter merry Silas, when she'd recovered
from the 'fects of his goin'. He ended
up with,a lot of last goodbys and talk
about duty to his couutry.
"I set right down an' wrote tbet
poor woman a few lines, telliu' hor
how I found the letter in her dead
hushmd's pocket. I was gain'ter
quit there, but decided et would bo
nice to add sometbiu' eonsolin' fer
the poor thing, so I told how we fouu I
him ou tho field of battle, face to tho
enemy, an' how his last words was for
her an* the baby. Thet day wo wo n
tho fight, an' tho very first chanco I
mailed Mr 3. Parker her husband's let
ter. Et seemed 'bout the plum
blamedest saddest thing I ever hod ter
do with."
"I've alius be'n cur'ous bout thet
widdy, too," the Chronic Loafer re
marked.
The School Teacher cleared his
| throat and began :
Now night her course began, and over heaven
Inducing darkness, grateful truce imposed,
And silence on the odious din of war;
Under her cloud—
"Don't begin no po'try jest yit,
Toacher," said the veteran. "Wait
tell you hear tbo sukal of the story. I
never heard no more of Widdy Parker
tell last night, an then ct come most
sudden. Our retohuient hod a reun
ion this year on tho field, you know,
an' last Monday I went back to Get
teespurg for tho fir3t tiino seneo 1 was
houorablo discharged.
"Tho boys was all there—what's left
of 'cm— an' wo jest had a splendid
time visitin' tho monymonts an' talk
iu, over the days back in '63. There
was my old tentm itss. Sam James on
ouo leg, an' Jim Luohenbach, who was
near tuck clown before Petersburg be
the yeller janders. There was. tho
Colonol, growed old an' near blind,
an' our Captain, an* a hundred odd
others.
"Last night wo was a lot of us set
tin' in tho hotel tellin' stories. Et
come my turn an' I told about tho
dead soldier's letter. They was a big
felly iu a uniform leaning agin tho
bar watchin' us quiet like, an' when I
begin ho pricked up his ears a little,
an' as I got furdor an' furder ho be
gin ter get more an' more 'interested,
I noticed, liy an' by I seen him bo
cotnin' red an' oneasy, an' liual, whon
I finished, ho walks' crosst tho room
tor where wo was an' stands there
6tarin' at me, never sayiu' uothiu'.
"A minnto passed an' then I sais;
'Well, comrade, what's you uus stariu'
so fer.' "
"dais ho: 'Thet letter was fcr
Mary Parkop.'
" 'True,' sn,isT, surprised.
"Then he shakos his fist an' yells:
'You fool, I've tended 'most every re
union here senco the war hop in' ter
meet the man that sent thot letter an'
wrote thct foolishnoss 'bout findin'
my dead body. An' aftor twenty-live
years I've foun' you.'
"He pulls oil* Lis coat an' tho flleys
ill jumps up. 1, half sheered tor

man!'
" 'Dead !' ho yells, 'never bo'n near

Because you liuds a man with my coat
on, thot ain't no reason he's mo. I
was gittin* to tho rear with orders as

"When I seen what I'd done I jumps

Silas Quincy?'
" 'Et wasn't your fault she didn't,*

sleeves. 'For I got homo two days

Atmospheric Fuel.
The possibility of carrying about
with him the means of counteracting
a tendency to become chilled, and a
stock of available fuel with which to
keep warm, does not seem to be recog
nized by the average individual. But
that one may by proper breathing
keep up a comfortable temperature or
throw ofl ckillness in almost any de
gree is a fact well established by abun
dant experiments. Almost every per
son may be exposed to the cold at times
when there is no opportunity topre
paro for it, and when there is no chanco
to socuro extra clothing. In such
cases it is only necessary to keep up
deep and rapid breathing. Fill tho
lungs as full as possible at every in
spiration. If tho air is very cold, it
is well to ho)d a handkerchief lightly
before tho nostrils, in order that tho
sudden ingress of a large quantity of
cold air may not injure tho luugs. Tho
air should be drawn in with some
force, and exhale at onco in the samo
way. Do not retain tho air, but get
rid of it as soou as possible. Two
seconds is long enough for filling and
emptying tho luugs. Breathe fast,
almost liko panting after violent exer
cise, but with the utmost caution,
stopping tho instant any distress or
uncasiucss is felt. Wait a moment,
then begin again, a little more slowly.
Be steadfast in the effort to fill the
lungs as full as possiblo without strain
ing. Withiu a few moments the bloo I
will begin to grow warm, the extremi
ties will, feel tho glow, aud soon the
entire surfaco will beat a comfortable
temperature. If one wakens in tho
night with a "creepy," cold feeling,
this is an excelleut thing to do, and
will restoro tho circulation, and often
produce a desire to sleep.
There is nuother advautage in deep
breathing that is far too little appre
ciated. One of tho most eminent
medical authorities decluros that oao
can by full, rapid and free breathing
elimiuato almost all disease germs and
tendencies from tho tystem.
Rapid breathing furnishes fuel by
meaus of which all waste matter of tho
system is consumed. The blood is
purified, tho tissues aro supplied with
necessary material, and the entire
body rapidly returns to healthy son
ditions.—Now York Lodger.
Will Sustain 045,1CG,5500 Person*.
Have you any idea of tlie number
of persons that tho United States
would sustain without overcrowding
the population or even going beyond
the limit of density now shown by tho
State of Rhode Island? The last cen
sus of the pygmy State just gives it a
population of 80,003. Tho area of
the Stato in squaro miles is
only 1250. Thus wo find that
thero is an averago of 818 per
sons on every squaro mile of her ter
ritory. We can best illustrate the
sustaining capacity of tho wholo of
the United States aud of the other
States by making some comparisons.
The State of Texas has an area of
265,780 square miles, and were it
equally as densely populated as "Lit
tle Rhody" would comfortably sus
tain a population of 83,523,623 in
habitants—a greater number of per
sons than the wholo country is ex
pected to have in tho year 1903.
Scatter people all over tho whole lan I
from the Atlantic to tho Pacific au.l
from tho Gulf to tho British posses
sions as thickly as they are now in
Rhode Island, and we would hive
945,666,300 inhabitants, instead of an
insignificant 62,000,000. In other
words, if tho United States could bo
peopled to their utmost sustaining ca
pacity, we could take care of nearly
two-thirds of the the present popula
tion of the glebe.—St. Louis Repub

This story is told of Rudyard Kip
ling, as illustrating very clearly the
characteristics of the vigorous English
boy who was after ward i to achieve
such widespread fame with his pen.
When a boy of twelve, ho weut on n
voyage with his father, who, bccomin
desperately sea-sick, retired to his
berth, leaving young Rudyard to his
own devices. Presently tho poor
father heard a tremendous commotion
over his head, and dowu tho coinpau
ion way dashed the boatswain three
steps at a time, shouting excitedly,
"Mr. Kipling, your boy has crawled
out on the yard-arm; if he ever lets
go he'll drown, sure.," "Yes," said
Mr. Kipling, falling back ou his pil
low, with a sigh of relief, •Suit he

"Ono of the fow iusfcancos of a stream
running up hill can bo found in White
County, Georgia," said T. 11. Faulk
ner, at tho St. Nicholas. "Near tho
top of a mountain is a spring, evident
ly a 'siphou, and* the water rushei
from it with sullioient force to carry
it up tho bido of a very steep hill for
nearly half a mile. Reaching the crest
the water Hows ou to the .east, iiu 1
eventually flnds it way into tho Atlan
tic Ocean. Of course, it is of the same
nature as a gnj'ser, but the spectacle
of a stream of water (lowiug up a steep
incline can probably bo found no
where else in tho country, aud appears
even more remarkable than tho gey
sers of the Yellowstone."—Cincinnati

A YOUNG GIRP3 TRIALS.
NERVOUS TROUBLES END IN ST.
VITUS' DANCE.
Physicians Powcrloa—'The Story Told by
the Child's Mother.
(From the Reporter , Somerset, /ft/.)
Among the foot bills of the Cumberland
Mountains, near the town of Flat Rock, is
the happy homo of James M-iPherron. Four
months ago the daughter of the family, a
happy girl of sixteen, was stricken with St.
Vitus' dance. The leading physician.! were
consulted, but without avail. She grew pale
and thin under the terrible norvous strain
and was fast losing her mental powers. In
fact the thought of placing hor in an asylum
was seriously considered. Her case has been
so widely takod about that the report of her
euro was like modernizing a miracle of old.
To A reporter who visited the home the
mother said:
"Yes, the roports of my daughter's sickness
and cure are truo as you hoar them. Her af
fliction grew into St. Vitus' dance from an
aggravated form of weakness nnd norvous
trouble peculiar to hersox. Every source of
help was followod to the end, but it soomod
that physicians and medicine were power
less. Day by day she grow worse until we
despaired of her life. At times she almost
went into convulsions. Sho got so that wo
had to watch her to keep hor from wander
ing away, and you can imagine the care she
was.
"About this tlmo, when our misery was
greatest and all hopo had fled, I read of
anothor case, almost similar, that ha l been
curod by a inodicino known as Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. Almost In desperation I socured
eome of the pills and from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration commenced;
the nervousness left, her cheeks grew bright
with tho color of hoalth, she gal nod flesh and
grew strong both mentally and physically
until to-day she is tho very picture of good
hoalth and happiness.
"It Is no wonder that I speak In glowing
terms of Pink Pills to every uiling person I
meet. They saved my daughter's life and I
am gratoful."
Tho foregoing is but ono of many wonder
ful cures that havo been credited to I)r. Will
iams' Tink Pills for Pale People. In many
cases the reported on row havo been investi
gated by tho leading newspapers and veri
fied in every possible manner. Their fame
has spread to tho far ends of civilization nnd
there is hardly a drug store in this country
or abroad where they cannot bo found.

"It's tho worst season for dampness I evei
saw," said a traveler on a train. "Yes," an
swered a man of big words, "it's the super
saturation of tho atmosphere from fogs and
vapors; those cause too much moisture and
sickness follows." "Maybe 'tis, but, as I said,
it is the worst season for wet and for such
compiaints as rheumatism, neuralgia, fuco
aohe, headache, toothache and tho like."
"Well, you've struok a combination I can
break," said a third party. "How?" "With St.
Jacobs Oil. If it's tho worst season, St. Jacobs
Oil Is tho best thing to use for tho troubles
which it brings. It will cure in no time
anything in the share ol pain or acko."
