    BEST SPUING MEBICM
The Palm Given to Dr. Greene's
Nsrvura.
That Grand Jnry, tbs People, Havo So
Decided.
XJeed by Hundreds of Thousands in
Spring as a Blood Medicine.
Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy is indeed "The world's Great
Spring Medicine. it has come to be
recognized by almost everyoody as the
best possible spring medicine to take,
and hundreds of thousands of our
people use it during the trying spring
months, to tone up anew the relaxed
nerves and re-invigorate and enrich
the blood.
A spring medicine is a necessity If
one wishes to keep in perfect health
and vigor during the changes from
winter to summer. This grand spring
tonic, this perfect spring medicine, Dr.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, is exactly what the system
needs at this season. It not only
purifies, but makes rich, red blood; it
not only strengthens and invigorates
the nervous system, but re-energizes
and revitalizes the nerves by feeding
them with renewed nerve force and
power. It is not only an aid to diges
tion, but it creates a regular, natural
and healthy action of the bowels, liver,
kidneys, which in the spring are al
ways sluggish and inactive.
In fact, it is just what people need
to make them well and keep them well
during these months, so threatening
to the health of all, and when it is con
sidered that Dr. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy is made en
tirely from pure, health-giving vege
table remedies, and that people give ■
It more tostimonia. of cure than any ,
other remedy on earth, no one can
that it is the very best spring
remedy for everybody to use.
Mr. Gusta.e of 33? First
street, Jersey City, N. J., says:— j
"I was troubled with sicL headaches,
and could not sleep on account of the
pains In my head. I was suffering
night and day with dyspepsia, could
r.ot eat anything, my stomach would
sour so. I haU to starve myself to have
any ease. I had to give up work at
last, I was so nervous and miserable,
and I was falling away in flesh so that
my friends hardly know me. I tried
several remedies, but without avail.
At last someone recommended Dr.
Greene's Nervura blood ana n.rvc rem
edy. I tried one bottle ~.d began to
improve. I started in to eat all right;
then I picked up my health; my head
aches disappeared, and my weakness
and sour stomach went away. I used
three bottles, and could sleep all night
with ease; I used six bottles, and felt
like a now man. I can now do a hard
day's work without any trouble, and I
am as happy .r a bird :n spring. 1 was
so miserable, always nufering, always
in pain, but now i am like a new man."
Use Dr. Gre -no's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy this spring, fcr It is the
discovery and prescription of a well
known physician. Dr. Greene, of 35
W. 14th St., New Lork City, who is
responsible for its beneficial action,
and who can be consulted freo o!
charge, per- >n . y or by letter.
Fresh Embroyo Makes Old Wheat Grow.
The statement has frequently been
made that it is possible to cause grains
oi wheat found in ancient Egyptian
sepulchers to germinate and grow. This
statement has been disputed, and the
question was discussed at a recent meet
ing of the French Academy of Sciences,
it was shown that while the albumen oi
vheat found in a tomb 6.000 years old
tad undergone no alteration, the em
•ryo was changed and could not be
taused to germinate. But a fresh em
iryo placed in the ancient albumen
vould grow, and this fact, it was said,
irobably accounted for the statement
jiat the old Egyptian wheat rescued
Tom its long entombment would sprout
ind grow.—Youth's Companion.
There are only four statues in the
United Kingdom erected to the memory
af women other than royalties. The
first statue of a women erected in Eng
land was that of Sister Dora, the Wal
sall nurse; the second was that of Mrs.
Siddons, the third Flora Macdonald.
and the fourth that unveiled at Duncon
a year or two ago in memory of Burns'
"Highland Mary."

Sistersvillc, W. Va., which is in a rich
oil and gas country, got its name from
the fact that an apparently valueless
tract of 1.500 acres was given to seven
sisters, and consequently called "sisters'
farm." A little prospecting showed the
land to be immensely valuable, and a
growing town of some thousands of in
habitants now occupies the farm.

Cattlemen in South Dakota are gen

hair or bid**, but not causing pain to

WHERE POLITENESS COUNTED.
Courtou4 Conductor Receives Good Po
rtion Through Trifling Action.
"It's astonishing how few people
realize the value of politeness," said a
gentleman today, in speaking of the
opportunities for young men.
"I come into town every day on the
Ellicott City cars," continued the gen
tleman, "and usually at the same hour
every day. It seems to me that the
conductors on that line are. as a rule,
very courteous and accommodating, but
there are a few exceptions. For sev
eral months a very pleasant young
man was in charge of the car I used
in the morning, but after New Year's
I day I missed him, and upon inquiring
for him found he had left the road.
His politeness had secured him a bet
ter position.
| "U sCchis that during the brisk shop
ping times just, before the holidays 1
| this conductor had as a surburban pas
' senger one rainy day a lady who was |
' encumbered with a number of parcels ]
and an umbrella. When the car ar-;
rived at the lady's stopping place the
conductor sprang off the car, raised
the lady's umbrella for her, assisted
her with her packages, touched his cap
1 and went on his way, thinking nothing
more of the incident.
"Not so with the lady, however.
That night she mentioned the circum
: stance to her husband, who is a large
wholesale merchant, and requested
him, if possible, to give the young eon
j ductor a better job than ringing up
fares and expostulating with truck
drivers. The husband is one of those
model men who live only to please
their wives, and the result was that
: on January 2, the conductor went to
j work at a salary considerably better
than that paid him by the railway com
' pany and with almost unlimited op
portunities for advancement.
I "But mark the difference In men.
j The terminus of the Ellicott City line
j is at Charles and Lexington streets,
! but if the cars are a little ahead of time
I they must wait at the corner of Sara
| toga and Charles streets, which is a
convenient passing point for the cars
of the Edmonson avenue line. Our
polite conductor had always called
eherrily out. on reaching this point.,
'Two minutes to wait,' or 'Going right
down.' as the ease might be. The first
morning i came in with the new con
ductor he plumped right down in a
seat when the car reached Charles and
Saratoga streets, and when, after a
slight pause, a passenger ventured
mildly to inquire how long the wait
would be. the conductor replied an
grily, 'Bout five minutes.' All the pas
sengers got off. and then, on looking
at my watch. I found there wore really
only two minutes to wait. Before we
got to Charles and Lexington streets
the car overtook us. That conductor
will never rise any higher, and it is
doubtful whether he will oven hold
his present position long."—Baltimore
News.
PreHiiure.
It Is difficult to realize what the
pressure at the ocean bottom really
means; how enormous it is at three
miles in depth. It is greater by sev
eral times than the pressure exerted
by the pistons of the very greatest
steam engines. Scientific men ascer
tain the temperature of the deep sea
by sending down thermometers in
closed in small, strong thick glass
tubes. Sometimes these tubes sud
denly collapse to a fino powder under
the enormous pressure of several
miles of depth. Indeed one may say
every hollow, man-made thing that
sinks in the deep sea is crushed be
yond recognition before it reaches the
bottom. The strongest steel ships are
hardly more resisting here than paste
board boxes.—McClure's Magazine.
He Did and Tlien He Didn't.
Apropos of runs on banks, a story is
told of an Irishman who had heard
reports affecting a bank in which he
had deposited his savings.
Presenting himself at the paying tel
ler's window, he said, peremptorily;
"I want me money!"
The official thus addressed quietly
took his book, counted out the cor
rect amount and handed it out.
"Then you've got it?" exclaimed the
depositor, his ire subsiding.
"There it is," replied tho teller.
"I don't want it! You may keep it,"
And ho went away satisfied of the
bank's solidity.—Baltimore Sun.
! SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.
Deaths from consumption in Phil-
adelphia are estimated to be one-third
lop.s than they were 15 years ago j
- The health authorities say the im- I
provement is due to their continuous j
I battle against the disease.
j Koch's theory that mosquitoes •
should be let alone, but that people
should be cinchonized, Major Ross
considers as impossible to put into
execution in a British colony, such as,
for instance. Sierra Leone. The best
method, in his opinion, is destruction
or removal of the mosquito by means j
1 of surface drainage, cutting down un- j
dergrowth and the use of various
culicides.
I
The big German factories which pro- '
duce synthetic or artificial intligo are
1 making tremendous efforts to get their
! product on the market and drive the |
j vegetable indigo out of use. It is
| questionable, however, whether the
. artificial indigo will ever serve all the
j purposes of the natural. An article
in the St. James Gazette says that
| British manufactures are none of them
I using the synthetic indigo for wool
and that even for cotton goods its legit
imate usefulness is limited.
The newly invented process of
bleaching baled yarns is carried out as
follows: The yarns are packed either
in single pounds or in packets of sev
eral pounds, in a receptacle before
they are treated with the bleaching
fluid, care being taken that the pack
ing is so done that the said fluid acts
on the threads lengthwise or in the
direction of the fibres. This is effected
by placing the bundles of yarn in the
receptacle, which is open at the top,
in a perpendicular instead of a hori
zontal position, as has previously been
the practice. By this method it is
claimed that great quantities of baled
yarn can be bleached perfectly white
without the trouble of unpacking,
which, of course, saves time, and
therefore money.
In an experiment made before a
meeting of one of the sections of the |
New York Academy of Sciences, Pro
fessor E. R. Von Nordhoff produced
by means of a miniature steam
whistle, operated with compressed air,
sound which was inaudible because of
its high pitch, though the sound
waves produced were detectible by
1 means of a sensitive flame. The object
; of the experiment was to illustrate
a method of measuring the length of
short sound waves by means of a
. diffraction grating, as light waves are
. measured. The waves in this instance
1 were shown to have a length of about
. three-eighths of ah inch. Audible
1 sound waves are said to range in
; length between 70 feet and three or !
, four-tenths of an inch. These num- I
, bers vary considerably, however, with
t the person.
A recent European Invention is a i
process for making artificial sponges. I
The method is based on the action of 1
zinc chloride on cellulose, by -which
spongy compounds similar to starch |
are produced. These products when
placed in the water swell, and, and in !
an atmosphere sufficiently dry, soon
become hard again. The formula for
making the sponges is given as fol
lows: One hundred grams of cellulose i
are treated with four kilograms of a
concentrated solution of zinc and so
dium chloride. This results in a plas
tic mass, slightly viscous, to which is
added a kilogram of coarse bay salt.
The substance is then placed in a
specially constructed mill and pierced
with two or three hundred holes, to
form canals, and is then placed in a
bath of alcohol and water for 24 hours.
These sponges can be produced quite
cheaply, and possess great durability,
though they are said to be harder than
the natural substance.
The I'ovrer of Artillery.
The power of artillery, properly
■ handled and sufficiently numerous. Is
I now so great that it is impossible to
J conceive an enemy capable of main
-1 taining an aimed fire against it at all.
I If 100 guns concentrate their shrapnel
on a front of trench of, say 500 yards
! extent, the number of bullets delivered
is so great that every man's head and
I shoulders showing above the crest
| will, on an average, receive four hits a
j minute, and, if that is not sufficient
to hinder steady aiming, the blinding
j clouds of dust, and smoke from the
bursting shells effectually screen all
the attacking objects from the occu
pants of the trench, and under such
conditions it is absolutely immaterial
what formations they adopt, or what
colored uniforms they wear. They will
meet a storm of bullets certainly, for
the enemy will contrive to fire at
them somehow, but their fire will be
so absolutely random that the number
' of hits will vary simply as the amount
of square feet of vulnerable area cx
| posed and the duration of such expos
ure. The longer you ore out in the
tain the wetter you will get. and you
will lie Just as wet in khaki as in
scarlet. —The Contemoovary Review.
