You Must
Sleep.
If you cannot, it is due to an
irritated or congested state of
the brain, which will soon de
velope into nervous prostration.
Nature demands sleep, and
it is as important as food; it
is a part of her building and
sustaining process. This period
of unconsciousness relaxes the
mental and physical strain, and
allows nature to restore ex
hausted vitality.
Dr. Miles' Nervine brings
refreshing sleep, because it
soothes the irritation and re
moves the congestion.
It is also a nerve builder; it
nourishes and Strengthens ev
ery nerve in your body, and
creates energy in all the organs.
Nothing will give strength
and vitality as surely and
quickly as Dr. Miles’ Nervine.
“During the past winter I had two
attacks of LaGrippe which left mo
very weak, and in bad condition. I
was so nervous I could not sleep. My
wife, after trying different remedies,
went for a doctor. The doctor was
out, and a neighbor recommended Dr.
Miles’ Nervine, and she brought home
a bottle. I had not slept for some time,
and had terrible pains in my head.
After taking a few doses of Nervine
the pain was not so severe, and I
slept. I am now taking the second
bottle, and am very much improved."
HENRY M. SMITH, Underhill, Vt.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first bottle will benefit. If it fails, he
will refund your money.

ODb FANCIES ABOUT BEEjjf
Old-Time Belief That Honey Was of
Celestial Origin and Other
Queer Notions.
In these days of scientific bee cul
ture, when bees are trained to pack
their honey in pound boxes ready for
market, and are as much under the
control of the beemaster as sheep are
of their shepherd, it is difficult to
ejlize what quaint delusions prevailed
£$nturies back in every

of the starres.
ing out early in
iough he admits him
to “whether it be the
the heavens or a certains
spittle of the starres or a juyce that the
ayre purgeth from himselfe." This be
lief in the celestial origin of honey
runs through all the old treatises on
apiculture, from the time of Virgil
downward. It was supposed to be a
kind of manna from heaven, and its
quality depended greatly on the favor
able or unfavorable juxtaposition of the
stars at the time of its descent
Although the existence in each hive
of one bee much larger than all the
others was generally recognized in old
en times, this was believed to be mere
ly a ruler or king over the rest. That
the large bee was aotually the mother
of the whole colony never seems to
have occurred to anyone unjtt recent
times. This king bee is very fancl
fully described as having "a lofty pact
and countenance expressing majesty,
and a white spot in his forehead glis
tening like a diadem.” In each hire,
also, there were “subordinate govern
ors and leaders and captains and
colonels, marked by crests, tufts or tas
sels on their heads, some yellow, some
murrey.” Among various other duties
it was the king's part to go out each
evening in search of any bees that had
not returned to the hive by sunset, and
to show them the way home.
From the earliest times honey ap
pears to have been held in extraor
dinary favor as a universal specific for
human ills. As a hair restorer it was
largely recommended, rubbed in plen
tifully night and morning, and if dead
bees were dried, pounded and worked
up into a thick paste with the honey,
its hair-producing capabilities were
much enhanced. This mess had to be
plastered on the bald places of the head
ever night, with Infallible results in
the morning, if one may credit a cer
tain fifteenth century writer. For
weak eyes the same authority says to
take a handful of the heads of bees,
burn them, and mingle the ashes with
honey gathered in the dog days. The
syes were then anointed liberally with
the mixture, and clearness of vision
was the invariable reward.
In the old days the situation of a
beehive was a matter of prime impor
tance. It was to be placed always on
the south side of a stream of water,
and never in a place where there were
echoes, as an echo was very injurious
to bees. A Httle gravel was to be put
down in the neighborhood of the hives,
as in windy weather the bees needed
small stones to carry about in their
flight as counterpoises. The baekeeper
was recommended to shave and keep
his head close-cropped, long hair on
head, or face being extremely offensive
to his charges, and in attire he was to
avoid anything of a red color, as this
was detrimental to the bees.
CURIOUS WORMS OF NORWAY
i .
They Gather in Great Numbers Form
ing a Serpent-Like Mass
When Migrating.
The Sciaras, of the genus Tiplux, a tiny
wormlike creature which is found in
the forests of Norway and Hungary dur
ing the month of July or early in August
gather in huge numbers preparatory to
migrating in search of food or for a
Change of conditions. When setting out
On this journey, says Nature, they stick
themselves together by means of some
glutinous matter, and form a huge ser
pentlike mass, often reaching a length
of between 40 and 50 feet and several
inches in thickness. As the scaria is
only on an average of about three-thir
ty-seconds of an inch In length, with no
appreciable breadth whatever, the num
ber required to form a continuous line
of the size above mentioned is incal
culable.
Their pace is, of course, very slow,
and upon meeting an obstacle, such as
a stick or stone, they either writhe over
or around it, sometimes breaking into
two bodies for the purpose. A celebrated
French naturalist says that if the rear
portion of this snakelike procession be
brought into contact with the front part
the insects will keep moving round in
that circle for hours, never seeming to
realize that they are getting no further
on their Journey. If the portions be
broken in two the procession will unite
in a short time. When the peasant meets
one of these processions he will lay some
obstacle in front of it. If it passes over
It it is a good omen.

The Leopard of the Snows,
When we look at the leopards In a
menagerie our minds instinctively turn
to pictures of the hot tropics and the tor
rid lands of the equator. But there are
leopards that love the snow, and never
willingly descend below the levels
where snowstorms occur in summer aa
well as in winter. The New York Zoo
logical park possesses, at present, a
beautiful specimen of the “snow leop

BARBERS' SHOP DISEASES.
Patrons ^Rlvissd to Have Their Own
~ Brush and Comb—Carbolic Acid
tor the Bazor.
The transference to his cars*
tomers, by means of his hands and
instruments, of many parasit
io skin diseases has long been rec
ognized as one of the unnecessary
accomplishments of the necessary
barber. Among these affections,
says American Medicine, are
sycosis, impetigo, seborrheic alo
pecia and furunculosis that is
more or less chronic in type. Dr.
Graham Chambers states that
during the past five years impeti
go circinati has been very prev
alent in Toronto, scarcely a month
passing without an outbreak of
from two to thirty cases, gener*
ally traceable to a common
source. The barber shop is so com
monly the source that he desig
nates the disease as “barbers’ im
petigo.” Quite recently Dr. W.
A. Hardaway has called attention
to a point which be believes, and
we think rightly, has been but lit
tle realized by the medical profes
sion. That is the frequency with
which carbuncles are acquired in
barber shops. He has seen many
cases ef carbuncle in which ths
evidence of this means of trans
mission was to him indisputable.
The relative importance of this se
rious affection as compared with
the other diseases mentioned
RAA/lz AAA AAAI tT +A l\A V\«tAOOAiV
For the prevention of contagion
in barber shops, Hardaway be
lieves that we will be forced tc
rely upon an educated public
opinion rather than upon compul
sory laws directed against the
barber. He recommends that
each patron of a barber shop pro<
vide himself with a box, contain
ing his own brash and comb, a
small package of absorbent cot
ton and a five per cent, carbolic
acid solution. The barber will
then wipe his shears or clippers
with the solution, and nse the pa
tron's comb and brush. For the
man who shaves his own soap, cup
and brush are necessities. These
suggestions are sensible. To can
ry them out properly means some
inconvenience, but it is worth
while, especially to the aged and
debilitated, or to those suffering
from diabetes or similar diathe
sis. Physicians atending such p*
tlents should extend them a warn
ing (n this regard.
ANCIENT DOLL-LIKE IDOLS.
Ware Found Imbedded In Walls fl
▲nolent OH'S Dwellings Near
Santa Fa.
While exploring the Puye and
Shufinne cliff dwellings near San
ta Fe recently Dr. R. W. Scheuss
ler discovered some antiques of
a kind not previously catalogued
by students of that region. No
ticing upon the wall of an anoient
dwelling some spots of an unu
sual color, he dug into the soft
stone with his pocketknife and
discovered a hole 5 inches in diam
eter and 12 inches deep, partly
Ailed with mud. Inside was im
bedded a stick on which was
mounted a doll’s head. In the
same hole was a small, highly pol
ished turquoise.
Dr. Schuessler investigated fur
tner. He round tnree more or tne
sealed openings, each of them
containing a doll and a turquoise.
One of the holes contained a piece
of petrified resin, in which tooth
marks indicated that it had been
osed as the chewing gum of the
day. The probability is that the
doll heads were idols, but the sig
nificance of burying them in the
tnesa walls and the presence of
lie turquoise are not explained.
In Sunny Florida.

Julia Daniels Moseley, in the
Four-Track News, the magic of a
certain garden in the south, in
sunny Florida. . . . The stars
down there have a way of seem

jewel placed high in the setting.
The moon was full and the magic
of her yellow beauty bewitched
everything, enhancing the very

about that spot that takes away
the stiffness so often found in
large, formal grounds, and, as you
