If you are weak and worn
out—if you are nervous, irrita
ble, have headache, backache,
neuralgia, or periodical pains, it
is because you have exhausted
your nerve force.
If you cannot sleep, and are
thus robbed of the rest which
nature demands for the restor
ation of mental and physical
vigor, your system will con
tinue to run down.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine restores
vitality by soothing and
< strengthening, the nervous
system, thus inducing refresh
ing sleep, and imparting
strength and vigor to all the
organs of the body.
There are very few instances
where Nervine will not benefit;
if not, your druggist will re
fund the money.
“When I began taking Dr. Miles'
Nervine I had a very sour stomach,
with pain extending far around on my
left side—attended with extreme nerv
ousness. 1 dreaded to have night
come, as it was impossible for me to
sleep. Everything 1 ate distressed me.
llefore 1 hid finished one bottle of
Nervine there was such a change that
my husband bought six more, which
has restored me to I alth."

One of the most beautiful lakes
in the world lies in the heart of
the Sierras on “The Overland
Route, ” 6,220 feet above the sea
level, and is completely hemmed
in by mountain walls, whose
rugged peaks rise in mahy places
to an additional height of from
2,000 to 4,000 feet. It is twenty
three miles wide and from 100 to
2,000 feet deep. The entire re
gion surrounding the lake is pic
turesque almost beyond descrip
tion, and a never-ending delight
to the eye. This region is reached
only over the Union Pacific and
its connections, the fast trains
via this route reach California

What Engineers Propose Doing
with the World's Deserts.
The Sahara Could Be Quickly Mad*
an lalaad Sea—Project to Divide t
Ireland with a
Canal.
Few people realize how completely of !
late years the surface aspect of this j
weazened old globe of ours baa been al
tered and improved.
The world to-day, in fact, differs
from the world of our ancestors, much
as a society lady, in all the glory of fold
and frill and furbelow, differ* from her
savage sister running wild in pestilen
tial woods. As art has transformed the
one, so has it the other.
Only the “Mme. Rachel” who has
made the earth, if not exactly “beauti
ful for ever," at least a pleasant and
healthful place wherein to dwell, is no
charlatan with £ dray load of cos
metics and a glib tongue, but a civil en
gineer, owning nothing more harmful
than a few mysterious-looking instru
ments and a measuring tape.
And the marvel of it all i3 this—that
what has been done is but an. infinites
imal fraction of that which may, and
doubtless will, be done. Who can doubt,
for instance, that the great Sahara
desert — that mole upon the world’s
face—will one day be but a memory?
It was an inland sea once. It would not
be a very difficult matter to convert It
into one again.
A canal 60 miles long, connecting
with the Atlantic the vast depression
wmcn runs close up to tne coast nearly
midway between the twentieth and
thirtieth parallels of latitude, would do
the business beautifully. The water
would not, of course, cover the entire
surface of the desert. Here and there
are portions lying above sea level.
These would become the islands of the
new Sahara ocean.
What would be the results that would
ensue upon this stupendous transfor
mation? Some would be good and some
bad. Among the latter may be men
tioned the probable destruction of the
vineyards of southern Europe, which
depend for their existence upon the
warm dry winds from the great African
desert.
In a similar manner the greater por
tion of the central Australian desert,
covering an area of fully 1,000,000
square miles, might be flooded. The. is
land continent would then be recon
verted into a gigantic atoll, and would
resemble, roughly, an oval dish of
which the depressed central portion
would be covered with water aod only
the “rim" inhabited. In this connec
tion it may be interesting to note that
a company has actually been formed
for submerging the Yuma desert In
southern California. If the plan, as at
present proposed, is carried out, a trtct
of absolutely uninhabitable territory
comprising nearly 13,000 square miles,
and the greater portion of which lies
between 500 and 1,000 feet below sea
level, will be submerged.
A few Englishmen—Unown ms “little
Englanders”—still blame the govern
ment for insisting upon the reconquest
of the Soudan. “A useless acquisition,"
say they. Perhaps!
But capable judges believe that it
would have been little less than suicidal
to have allowed these regions' to fall
into the hands of France; for the sim
ple reason that her engineers, by divert
ing the edurse of the Nile at Abu Ifamed
or Berber—no very difficult task—
could at any time turn all upper Fgypt
Into a desert.
It has even been suggested that it
might be possible—by turning its wa
ters into one of the many lateral
ravines which run at right angles to
the present course of the river—to find
a new outlet for it into the Red sea, and
thereby to transform, in process of
time, that sheet of water into a great
fresh water lake.
To accomplish tins, it would of course
be necessary to build a giant darn
across its southern “neck,” near Perim,
and to regulate, or rather stop alto
gether. the inward flow of the Mediter
ranean through the Suez canal—a big
task, but one not entirely impossible of
accomplishment.
The above are examples of big
schemes. There are many others that
might be mentioned, including, of
course, the Panama and Nicaraguan
and the French “war canal * be
tween the mouths of the Loire and the
Rhone, which, when completed, will
enable their ironclads to dodge round
behind Gibraltar when passing from
the Atlantic to the Mediterraenan or
rice versa.
But it is the comparatively little en
gineering feats which have slowly but
surely altered in the past and will alter
■in the future the face of the earth. Even
so small a matter, for instance, as the
proposed seawall at Southend will cer
tainly deepen the estuary of the
Thames, and may conceivably do away
with the Goodwin sands.
A scheme was recently mooted to cut
a ship canal through tlie center of Ire
land, beginning at Dublin and finish
ing at Galway, it would be no very
difficult feat to accomplish, for most
of the country through which it would
pass is flat and boggy.—Chicago Chron
icle.

One day Tommy accompanied hi* j
mother on a shopping expedition, and,
seeing a large candy man in a confec- j

it with a wistful look. Then, turning
away, regretfully, he said: '‘Mamma,
I could lick that fellow with both hands
tied behind me."—Troy Times.

The passion for old-time things has j
brought into fashion the homemade
rag carpet, but there are more artistic
ways of having it woven than the ever
lasting stripe. A handsome carpet is
a solid centerpiece of maroon. The
warp should be colored the same shade
as the rags, and all may be colored at
home, if desirable for economy’s sake
with diamond dyes, and to utilize both
light and dark rags a very handsome
border is made of shaded red and
orange woven in the old-fashioned
stripe. Another style is to have a very
heavy warp used twice as thick as for
ordinary carpet; color it several da
sired shades. This produces a very
pretty checked carpet, weaving in the
rags in stripes.
No variety of greens is more valuable
than the dandelion, and when proper
ly cooked it is tender and finely fla
vored. Wash thoroughly, put into boil
ing water and cook for one hour; drain,
cover with salted boiling water and
cook two hours longer. Drain again,
cut up fine, season with one salt-spoon
of pepper and oue tablespoonful of
butter and serve with the following
sauce: Itub the yolks of two hard
boiled eggs until smooth; add one
saltspoonful of salt., one-quarter as
much white pepper and two table
spoonfuls of thick cream. Beat thor
oughly, then gradually add one cup
ful of vinegar; stir until dressing is
the consistency of cream.
Apple jelly equal to the finest quince,
currant or crab jelly Is made in the
following manner: Take apples, wipe
and slice them; use seeds, skins and
all; add sufficient water to cover and
cook until soft; strain through a
cloth, taking care not to squeeze. To
every pint of juice allow half the juice
of a lemon and a pound of sugar. Boll
the liquid 35 minutes over a quick Are
before adding the sugar. Allow all
to come to the boil again, then remove.
The pulp remaining in the cloth may
be squeezed through it, and with lem
on and sugar added in the same jfFo
portion as in the jelly makes a moat
excellent marmalade.
For mutton steak purchase two
pounds of mutton from the shoulder;
this can be had for half the price of
steaks. Have the butcher trim it care
fully and chop with two knives until
fine. Add one-fourth of a pound of beef
auet chopped fine. Make into a steak
to fit your broiler, and broil over a
clear fire. Season when done with a
“easpoonful of salt and a fourth as
much paprika. Place on a hot platter,
dot with butter, using'a tablefcpoonful.
Pour around it topiato ague*.
To prevent things in the oven from
being burnt or becoming too brown,
a basin or pie dish of water should be
put on the lower shelf, so that the
steam.'can rise.
Mildew may be removed by dipping
the articles in sour buttermilk and
laying them in the sun to dry.
Never throw away beef marrow;
save it, and let it be chopped with suet
when making a boiled pudding.
Cinders, if saved and wetted with a
little water, make a very hot fire for
Ironing days.—Troy Times.
SLEEVES IN SUMMER.

New Skirts.
Sleeves are becoming an objective
point' in the costume. This is probably
due to the extreme tightness af the
skirts and the desire to increase the
width of the shoulders as a counter
balance. Plain sleeves are becoming
ouly In a perfectly-formed woman, and
hence the efforts of the modistes to in
troduce them have failed. Among the
sleeves seen on eight imported gowns,
the first sleeve is that of an apricot
colored satin. It is cut in a point upon
an epaulette of mousseline de soie. The
bottom is cut out in points upon a puf
fing of mousseline. There is a vine of
embroidery at the top and at the hand.
The second sleeve is that of a plain cash
mere gown, and is made elegant and be
coming by tucks. The third sleeve is
that of a wool challie. It is cut in two
plaits on each side under a rosette; the
top is open upon a plaiting of mousse
line de soie, with small ruches. The
fourth sleeve is that of a silk poplin
gown, with guipure Insertion and
ruches of mousseline. The fifth belongs
to a tailor-made gown, and the sixth is
that of a mauve wool, cut into several
parts and fastened down by buttons.
The seventh sleeve is that of a gray
poplinette gown, the edges finished
with ruches of mousseline de soie. The
lust sleeve, of black satin, has the up
per part covered by guipure, which is
framed by loops of ribbon.
Sleeves will in the near future form
a still more important part of tba
gown than they do even noVr.
As to the tight skirts, there is some
thing almost shocking about the
swathing lines which now so unequiv
ocally reveal the entire figure of a fash
ionable woman. She has divested her
self of every possible morsel of inside
drapery which it is given her to discard,
and wears her frocks “neat," to quote a
big man milliner, over combinations or
long woven vests which reach to the
knee, where they are joined by lace or |
silk flounces.
Of course, this new skirt, fitted as It
is without a single wrinkle over the
hack, when trailing a foot or two in
length over green lawn or velvet pile
carpet, is all very well; but how about
rhe half-attempted, half-accomplished
version of the country dressmaker.who
just misses the right curves and
grows creases in the wrong places?
Then, indeed, the drastic denouement
•'s obvious. The new dresses in her
liSiOds become deeds of disaster instead
if things of beauty, and there is much
gnashing of teeth over disappointed
ambition*.—N. Y. Stm.
