You Must
Sleep.
If you cannot, it is due to an
irritated or congested state of
the brain, which will soon *36
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 me
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.

GREAT INVENTOR AT HOME.
a Visit to Thomas JL. Edison—Etw
and Surroundings Not a Bit
Like the Man.
To one who knows anything at
the first glimpse of
surroundings
•f
after
vigorous ex
its gates jealously
guarded by a lodgekeeper.
The interior of the house is in
keeping with the atmosphere of
the park without, quite unlike
Edison. The reception-room was
utterly different from what I ex
pected. The admirably draped
curtains, the tables and chairs ar
ranged wih an eye to artistic ef
fect, were not of Edison’s choos
ing. He cares too little for the
luxuries of life. This was his
wife’s work; it was all so wom
anly.
I heard quick footsteps behind
me, and Edison appeared, greet
Ing me cordially and unaffectedly.
He was dressed in the queerest
or costumes—a tong mouse tnai
reached to his heels, evidently of
his own pattern, serviceable and
work-worn.
“Come along into the labora
tory,” he said.
So I followed him through the
dining-room and the “den” into
the laboratory that he has fitted
op for himself in his home,
rhere I found his little boy, his
shirt-sleeves rolled up, his face
sud hands smeared like his
father’s. They had been making
various compounds of which lamp
black was the chief constituent.
“So you work on Sunday, too?”
Edison winked confidentially.
“You s£e, Mrs. Edison is cway. I
ean do as I like.”
That brought back to me a story
that I had once heard from a friend
of his—a story of how he works
night after night in his labora
tory, utterly absorbed in his ex
periments. Midnight comes and
goes, the gray dawn creeps in, and
■till finds him bending over his
test-tubes and retorts, until at
last Mrs.'Edison appears and
fondly leads him away to sleep.
I looked around the laboratory,
rhis at least was his room. There
were Bunsen burners, mortars
snd pestles, glass rods, watch
crystals, bottles of chemicals
scattered about in bewildering
profusion. I watched him and his
boy while they worked, the boy
listening with rapt attention to
the teachings of his father.
A FORTUNE IN A IPOTATO.
guber Raised by Scotchman and Sold
at High Price—Well-Named
the “Eldorado.”
_
No potato ever gained so much
notoriety as Eldorado, raised by !
the famous Scottish raiser Mr. A.
Findlay, of Markinch. The very
lame of the variety, says the Gar
lener’s Magazine, was a stroke of
genius, for it is hardly possible
that the raiser, or those who had
the good fortune to secure some
jf the first tubers distributed, >
wuld have imagined that in so
jhort a time it would change
bands at such enormously high ,
prices.
Mr. George Massey, of Spalding,
vas one of the very first to obtain
the stock, and from him Mr. Zach
iriah Gray, a well-known grower
at Everton, Sandy, purchased a
itone weight for £20. This set the
jail rolling, and as Mr. Findlay
•esolved not to further distribute
Eldorado until the autumn of
L904, the demand for the small
itock available was doubled and
:rebled, and so the prices rose.
Messrs. Dennis, the Covent Gar
len salesmen, and Messrs. I. Poad
fc Sons, of York, possessed sup
plies, and the latter firm found a
purchaser of four pounds at £150
per pound. This determined them
to obtain further stock, and so at
the Smithfield club show a mem
ber of his firm found that Mr. Mas
ley had a limited stock for dispos
il and made him an offer of £1,000
'or a stone. Mr. Massey refused,
is he wanted £1,500, but eventn
illy the bargain was struck af
El,400, to the satisfaction of both
parties. Subsequently Mr. Mas"
ley sold a relatively small quan
tity for £2,000, so that his original
transaction brought him a y«K
handsome return,

COZY HOME FOR TRAMPS.
Wealthiest Hobo in America Flans a
Comfortable Refuge for
thft Aged.
Hans Ablehanson, the wealthiest
tramp in America, who several years
ago lived at the Waldorf-Astoria in New
York, at the expense of a western rail
road magnate, as a result of a wager
that Hans could not walk from Tacoma
to Panama in eight months, is to build
a home for aged tramps. Hans recent
ly received $25,000 by the will of a rel
ative who died in Sweden, and the money
is now said to be drawing interest in a
New York bank.
Hans recently disclosed his intention
to his friend, Peter Johnson, of Wor
cester, Mass. The other day Johnson
was in New York, and, while talking
about Hans' project, said:
"It sounds like the dream of a crazy
man, but Hans declares that he wilt
build the tramps' home with his money.
He says that he will build his home
somewhere in New England. I asked
him why he didn't take hl3 money and
settle down and he said it is much more
tun to be a tramp.
"He said that the only thing he wanted
to get out of his money is a home to liv4
in when he gets too old to catch freights,
so long as he had to buildhimself a home,
he declared that he might as well build
one large enough for 25 or 30 of his
friends. He told me that he knew 5,000
tramps on the road in the United States.
Some of these friends of his, he ea«
plained, are getting old and stiff and
cannot tramp much longer.
"He plans to put all of his money In
this home for his friends. After it is
uuui, ne argues tnac Dy a uttle work,
such as broom making or mending chairs
or something of that kind, the 25 tramps
who reside within can pay running ex
penses. When I asked him how soon ha
Is going to build this home he said that
he is looking for a suitable place, and
that as soon as he finds one he will take
his money out of the bank and build." •
MAKE ALBUM FOR THE POPE
Magnificent Volume to Be Sent by
Children of New Orleans
Parish to Pius X.
The exquisite album which is to be
presented to his holiness, the pops, by
the Children of Mary, of the Jesuit
church, of New Orleaus, has been
finally completed and will be borne to
his holiness along with the magnifi
cent pontifical sandals, by Mr. Kelly,
on the occasion of the golden jubilee
of the immaculate conception.
The album is a work of art and a
thing of beauty. It is bound ia
snow white antique silk, and tbs cor
ners and clasps are of pure gold.
Near the left-hand lower corner ol
the cover is the pope's crest, whils
across the upper part of the cover is
the word "Autographs" ia gold letters.
The album contains 50 pages. On
tne right-hand side of each is some
original poem, composed by members
of the sodality, and written in either
English, Latin or Italian. These
pages are exquisitely illuminated, aft
er the manner of the middle ages, and
the decorations on no two are alike.
On the opposite 3ide of the pages there
is nothing except some modest deco
ration. All the work was done by
hand by members of the sodality, ex
cept the chasing, which was done by
Walter, the college jeweler.
On the presentation page of the
album are the words: "To Our Most
Holy Father Pius X., Children of
Mary, Jesuits’ Church, New Orleans,
La., 1904.” On the title page of the
album are the words: “Golden Ju
bilee of the Immaculate Conception,
1854-1904."
The album represented three months'
work.
