‘TIGERS'A PUSLiC MENACE*
; Pesple and Stock Arm Killed by Sav
age Beasts in lYTeYlcan
Territory.
Tigers, driven from their mounts!*
lairs in the territory of Topic by ths
scarcity of food, continue to ravage the
haciendas of the valleys. They are be
soming such a general danger, says the
Mexican Herald, that the municipal au
thorities have offered a reward ot $19
J for every tiger’s akin.
For the past several months great
[ numbers of the animals have swarmed
I through the marshes of ths lowlands
along the coast and in the valleys of
the territory of Tepic, having been
driven out of the states of Sinaloa and
j Sonora by ths floods and ths extremely
sold weathsr. Ths damage tavitd to
the haciendados and the dnnget in
curred by Che presence of the animals
was such that maqy at offered
rewards for the a Ida* of the aalaaUa
some time ago.
The tigers, however, seem to like the
warm weather and the good food that
they are getting in- Tepic and Instead of
deareasing their numbers have greatly
Increased within the last few weeks.
| Now the municipal authorities of the
territory have also offered a reward for
the skins of the animals.
The tigers have become so bold that
they will enter the houses on the plan
tations and help themselves to what
ever comes in their path. Several
deaths are reported in different parts
of the territory. In many sections of
the state it is necessary to have armed
guards stationed at night, to insure
the safety of the other people in the
settlements.
Live stock Is suffering more than
anything else. With the slight pro
visions that are necessary for the shel
ter of the stock, it leaves them in most
eases without any protection at all
from the beasts. Even the presence
of numerous guards around a bunch of
CAHIp 1a nff-anfimoo Iv>enMl .«*
the tigers from getting away with an
animal or two from along the edges
af the herd.
Hunting for the animals has been
greatly stimulated by the offers of the
government and scores of hunters are
scouring the country for them. The !
number of the skins that have been i
turned in thus far is large and It is
hoped that it will not be long before
the animals are driven back to the
eeelusion of the mountains.

WAKING IN THE WILDERNESS
—
How to Get Out of Bed When the
Thermometer Registers Forty
Below Zero.
Tou are awakened In the bitter dark*
j nesB of the eariy morning by the
; sound of the camp dogs moving among
the frozen pails of refuse. You hear
their padding footsteps passing this
way and that outside of the tents and
the brushing of their bodies against
the canvas walls. Then you hear the
sound of chopping wood where some
one is at work in the starlight, says
the Boston Globe. One of the men
stirs and rises in the darkness. The
tent is bitter cold, with everything
frozen as hard as iron. You hear the '
man fumbling around in the darkness
for the matches, and presently he
strikes one and lights a candle. 1
Presently he begins chopping th*
wood for the stove, and his big, round
shadow moves uncouthly and gro
tesquely about the walls as the flams
of the candle wavers in the draught
of cold air. He makes a fire, and in
& moment the flame is roaring up the
stovepipe, which gradually becomes a
dull red with the gushing heat. He j
stands with his back to the stove and .
presently the other man rises and ;
joins him.
Then you yourself move reluctantlj j
:n your warm swaddling of furs, and
with some effort crawl out into the ;
bitter cold and joint the others around
the stove. None of you speak, but
each absorbs the scanty heat in
silence. By and by, warmed to some
return of life, you peep out of the
tent; the sky is like black crystal, the
stars shining with incredible efful
gence. From the stovepipe of the
other tents rockets of flame are gush
ing up Into the air; showers of sparka
rise up into the night high overhead
—hover, waver, and then sink dwind
ling upon the tent and tt ~ surround
ing snow.
You look at the thermometer hang
ing against a tree and see by the llghl
of a match that It is 40 degrees below
zero. By this time the smell of cook
ing Is filling the silent frozen spaces
of the darkness and you reenter the
tent to hug again the warmth of the
etove, with a huge appetite for the
rude breakfast of melted grease and
glllettes.
Explosions on Old Battle-Fields.
The forests in the mountains known
as Loudon Haights, opposite Harper’s
Ferry, took fire recently and burned
with great intensity. After some time
a series lof explosions wrere heard
which startled the inhabitants, and the
concussion was so great that it broke
windows in some houses In Harper’s
Ferry, across the Shenandoah. The ex
plosions were caused by the bursting
of shells which had been thrown or
the heights at the time when Gen
Mills surrendered to Stonewall Jack
| son in 1S62. These had failed to ex
| plode when they were fired, and had
remained there for more than 40 yeara.

Failing
Strength
A weak and exhausted con
dition usually follows over
work, too close confinement, or
unusual mental strain. Every
day a certain amount of vital
ity is consumed, and if not re
plenished by sleep, rest and
nourishment, soon wrecks the
nervous system. The results
_ .t_1__ 1..1_n ^
indigestion, imperfect circula
tion, etc., which affects the
organs of the body.
Restore your nerve strength
—your vitality, with Dr. Miles’
Nervine, and your whole sys
tem will recuperate. Your
sleep will be sound and re
freshing, headaches will dis
appear, and digestion improve.
"When I began taking Dr. Mile3’
Restorative Nervine I was physically
in a very bad condition. I was weak
and exhausted, and hardly able to
keep up. I could not eat sufficient to
keep up my strength. I suffered
greatly from sleeplessness, and got
very little rest. The Restorative
Nervine soon brought refreshing
sleep, and I gained rapidly in strength
until I was fully restored. I have
since taken it whenever I have felt
the need of a nerve tonic, and always
with very satisfaetorv results.”

WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
IS DANGEROUS,
Neglect of the First Warning Symp
toms is the Prime Cause of so
Many Deaths from the Dreaded
Bright’s Disease.
it is Easily Curable in the Early Stages.
Kidney diseases are so destructive to
human life because they do not manifest
alarming symptoms until the constitu
tion is seriously weakened and the
strength exhausted. Then, too often,
the remedies employed by many physi
cians are of indifferent or doubtfui value,
and the patient rapidly sinks under the
disease. The wisest course is to apply a
reliable kidney and liver remedy on the
first appearance of the symptoms. A
little uneasiness in the small of the back,
digestive troubles, bowel irregularities
and disorder in the urinary organs are
matters of small moment in the estima
tion of strong men and women, yet they
have a serious meaning. They show
clearly that the kidneys are suffering
and need help, which must be forth
coming at once to prevent serious, per
haps fatal consequences. A few doses
of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would
prove of incalculable value in restoring
the weakened organs to health. An
investment of one dollar in a bottle of
Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is
yet in the early stage will save hundreds
of dollars in doctor’s bills, besides the
suffering that would surely followshould
the disease be allowed to fasten itself in
the body. The excellent curative power
of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to
tlte first stages of kidney disease. It is
equally efficacious in severe or chronic !
rases Phvsioians have used it as a last
resort, in cases that defied their best
efforts, with the most brilliant results, i
and it has shown its superiority over the i
many so-called kidney cures, now being |
loudly advertised, in instances innu
merable.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Hitters with the
large figure 3 in red on the front label.
