Headache
If subject to headache, take
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills when
you feel the first indication of
an attack, and you will find
that they rarely ever fail to
stop further progress.
Pain weakens the nerves, and
the longer you suffer, the more
frequent will be the attacks.
On the contrary, if the
nerves are relieved of this
weakening influence, the at
tacks will be less frequent, and
finally disappear altogether.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills ;
contain no opium, cocaine, mor
phine or chloral in any form.
They are absolutely harmless
if taken as directed, and will
have no other effect, except to
drive out the pain.
“Dr Miles' Anti-Pain Pills are ail
right, and 1 can recommend them to
any one in need of a remedy for head
ache, neuralgia, or pain of any kind.
My health is not very good, and I am
subject to frequent attacks of severe
headache, but since I began taking
Dr Miles' Anti-Pain Pills I do not
suffer from that trouble as I used to.
They never fail to give relief in a few
minutes, and if taken promptly on the
approach of headache will prevent an
attack from coming on._ Pain Pills

MOST POPULAR NUMBI
Seven and Thirteen Are Fixed
in the Minds of the Ores
Number of Men.
“Ask a man to pick out some numi
ber between one and ten, and you can
tell him nine times out of tea what
number he has selected, though his se
lection is made mentally,” said a man
who, according to the New Orleans
*nmes-Democrat, is fond of the old
things, “and when you come to think
of it, the task of naming the correct
number Is not n difficult one. In the
course of an hour the other day I
asked ten men to think of a certain
number—any number between one and
ten—and I would tell them what num
ber - they had fixed their mind on
in nine cases out of ten I was correct,
missing it only once. The minds oI
nine of the persons selected the num
ber seven, and one of them selected
nine. It is not difficult to understand
why the mind should run to the num
ber seven. Even in the case of the
man who fixed his mind on the num
ber nine, he told me when it was all
over that his mind bad first run to j
seven, but he quickly changed to nine [
without knowing just why it was that!
he changed. Seven is the most prom- 1
inent figure between one and ten. It j
Is the most popular number in the line,
and is associated with more things
than any other number, aud It Is quite
reasonable that the mind should light
on seven. I made another test the
other day with five persons, asking each
of them to write some number between
one and ten, and give it to a 3lxth per
son. When the slips had been handed
to the sixth man I said: ‘Seven Is ths
number on each of the slips.’
“ ‘Correct,’’ said the man to whom
they had been handed, and the five
men were a bit bewildered for the
moment by the fact that they had all
lilt upon the same number, and that I
was able to tell what the number was
It wou!d_be quite as easy to name a
uurnuci uctnccu am auu u\j9 tuougu a
have made no testa along thi3 line. 1
dare say that 13 would be the first
number to flash in the mind, simply
because it Is the most talked of, and
the only number between, 10 and 20
that has the widest association. So
you can tell there is no trick about it,
and it doesn’t require any knowledge
of the occult philosophies."
EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Borne of Our Larger Cities Have An
nexed Ground Far Into Adja
cent Farm Lands.
According to a recently issued census
bulletin, the real rank of cities is not al
ways indicated by the order in which
they stand in the tables of population.
Some great centers have a considerable
part of their massed population lying
outside the municipal boundaries. Bos
ton is a good example; about 1,200,000
people live in sight of the state house
dome, and less than 600,000 of them are
governed by the Boston-mayor. Other
cities have annexed far into the farm
lands of the adjacent country, says
Youth’s Companion.
It is customary to speak of the popula
tion of a state, “in proportion to its
size." Such a comparison is seldom
made of cities, although it might not be
uninteresting. Pittsburg, for example,
has a population of a third of a million
on 18,000 acres of ground; New York’s
population, little more than ten times
as great, spreads over nearly 12 times
as many acres.
Chicago was long famous for its an
nexation habit, but since 1890 New York
has annexed much more territory than
Chicago’s total area. New Orleans has
a slightly larger area than Chicago.
Each of them covers six times the area
of Baltimore.
Washington, which occupies the Mary
land part of the ten miles square set
aside for a national capital, is a fair
sized city as area goes, for this genera
although it looked abundantly ample for
all the purposes of urban development
when laid out.
In the case of cities, as well as of other
corporations, consolidation Is plainly
one of the tendencies of the times. More
than one-third of those In the United
States have added to their territory by
annexation since 1890. Townships and
counties are occasionally subdivided, by
reason of local Interests, but the cities
seem to be steadily pushing their boun
daries outward. There are some eco
nomic reasons for this, but the reason
in mca^es has been the desire of
their inhabitants to make a “good show

At the latest of the ladies’ clubs a

small creatures that a lady finds neces

One of the most enthusiastic members
was showing her friends of her own sex
over the establishment, and opened the
door of the “pets’ room with proper
pride.
There, In the center of the room, on
two chairs, sat two immaculately

with a wicked twinkle In their eyes.
"Don’t you know this is the ladles*

FRIGHT RESTORES SPEECH
Tlames in Room of Dumb andj Par
alyzed flan So Scare Him
That He Begins to Talk.
Thomas Herring, a dumb and pa^
alyzed old man living with his son-in
law, E. Moss, in Loudon, was so over
come with fright when a Are broke out
in his bedroom recently that he sudr
dehly began to speak.
Herring, who is 71 years old, waa a
robust man, and up to a short time agw
was enjoying good health, even work
ing at a small blacksmith’s forge. One
day he suffered a stroke of paralysis,
which also left him speechless.
The other evening two men rushed
In shouting that one of the upper
rooms was on Are. Running np stairs
to the chamber of his father-in-law
floss saw that the window curtains
were ablaze and the woodwork was
alight The wind had blown open the
Window and this had knocked over a
lamp, causing the Are
The paralyzed man lay on the bed
helpless, unable to stir hand or foot
or raise a cry of alarm. The agonized
look on his face showed, however, that
he realized the terrible nature of his
position. The Aames were smothered
before they had made much progress,
and the patient escaped unhurt.
Shortly after the family were sur
prised to hear the voice of the par
alyzed father. He was able to speak
distinctly a few words and his speech
was ooherent The next days his pow
ers of speech were still further restored
and he regained the complete use of his
voice and was able easily to converse
with the family.
The restoration of the lost faculty
was evidently the outcome of the shock
which his system experienced on the
outbreak of the Are.
Although the paralysis of the limbs
remains, Mr. Herring’s health has im- I
proved so much that he has been re
moved from the house to a hospital, i
where it is the opinion that he may j
live a long time.
EXTOLS MARTIAL SPIRIT.
Gen. Sickles Declares War Was Or*
dained by God and We Will
Always Have It.
The cornerstone of a monument te
be erected in Salem Fields cemetery.
Cypress Hills, L. 1., in honor of Jews
who lost their Hvee in defense of the
union was laid recently. Nathan Straus,
chairman of the auxiliary committee of
the Hebrew Union Veteran association,
presided. In the course of his remarks
Mr. Straus referred to “A time when
war will be reckoned a survival of bar
barism.’’ This brought a protest from
Maj. Gen. Daniel El. Sickles, retired,
who lost a leg at Gettysburg.
“Although we are assembled In a
cemetery,’’ said Gen. Sickles, “this Is
> not a funeral occasion. No death la
more glorious than death for one's
country. I know many think that wars
are dreadful, but we have had our
wars since the world began, and we
shall always have wars. In the provi
dence of God war was ordained, and
the human race will always fight for
what It loves. This nation was found
ed through war. Would George III.
have agreed to arbitration to let us
found an independent government? No
We have liberty because our fathers
fought seven years for Independence,
and we will always have to fight to
maintain our freedom.
“I hope the time wiJI never come
when we shall cease to be a martial
people, or be unwilling to take up ai ms
in defense of our country. In the day
we are unwilling to fight for our lib
erties we 3hall surely lose the respect
of the world.’’
HORSE FALLS IN CISTERN.
Then Battles with a Water Moccaain
for Life—Rescued by
'Firemen.
A horse belonging to William Scales,
of Kansas City, Kan., fell in an unused
cistern the other day. The animal was
almost submerged, nothing but hi* head
and neck remaining above the water
When the hose company from fire head
quarters arrived a large water moccasin
about five feet long had wrapped itself
about the horse’s neck and had bitten
the animal several time*.
The snake was an ugly looking reptile,
and for a few moments the firemen hesi
tated about going down in the well. Vol
unteers were called for, and some of the
men, more venturesome than the rest,
cr.Tb?:! dow? on a ladder and with a
large stick killed the snake. The horse
was then lifted from the cistern and •
veterinary surgeon applied antidote*
for the snake’s bite. Although the horse
suffered considerably from the com
bined effects of the fall and the snake
bites, It will recover.
Unearths Petrified Dinosaur.
W. H. Utterbeck, representing the
Carnegie museum at Pittsburg, Pa., has
In his possession portions of a petrified
dinosaur, called the triceratops, which
were exhumed on Hell creek, in Dawson
county, Montana. The load weighed
2,500 pounds. The remaining portions
will weigh about the same, and It will
take until fall to excavate them.
Chfckens Find Lost Diamond.
A diamond ring valued at $150, which
was lost by Miss Rebecca Rennoagh at
the home of Wright Griffen, in Great
Barrington, Mass , 14 years ago, was
unearthed by chickens vigorously
scratching in the soil the other day. The
Jewel was found by Frederick Burg
hardt., who ha3 notified Miss Rennough.
The ring is in perfect condition.
