For the working woman it gives her

To right It, take Dr. Miles' Nervine.
Seme other symptoms of nerve trou

They indicate diseases which may lead

thing to which the office-hunting
Waterman himself pleads guilty,
but which fact could not have
been established from any utter
ance in his paper, for in the days
before the primary he sought to
be county clerk. He laid on the
fence as still as the real squirrel

shady tree in the midday’s heat.
Of course he was defeated, as;
he always has been and always
will, and while we are on this
subject, just mark a prediction:
If Waterman doesn’t run again
two years from now for county
clerk and try to beat Mr. Alex
Lockard out of his second term,
it will be because he has hied
himself away to his native heath
in t.ho north and left his com-:
