A Live
Wire
Every nerve is a live wire
connecting some part of the
body with the brain. They are
so numerous that if you pene
trate the skin with the point of
a needle you will touch a nerve
and receive a shock—pain it is
called. Aches and pains come
from a pressure, strain or in
jury to a nerve; the more prom
inent the nerve the greater the
pain. When the pain comes
from a large nerve it is called
Neuralgia
whether it be the facial nerves,
or the heart, stomach, sciatic
or other prominent nerve
branch. To stop pain, then,
you must relieve the strain or
pressure upon the nerves.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills do
this.
■'I suffered intense pain, caused by
neuralgia. I doctored and used vari
ous medicines without getting relief
until I began taking Dr. Miles’
Anti-Pain Pills. They did me more
good than all the medicines I ever
used. They never fail to cure my
headaches, and their use never leaves
any bad after-effects."

Struck his Head.
Little Rock, Jan. 5.—Barney
Schimmelpfenning, a well-known
Iron Mountain engineer, is at his
home, 1420 West Fifth street,
under treatment for injuries sus
tained while running the Cannon
Ball, southbound, at Mandeville,
seven miles north of Texarkana.
Double-tracking work is in prog
ress at that point, and while
looking out of his cab window,
the engineer was struck by a
beam and knocked to the deck of
the engine, where his fireman
found him unconscious.
Deadly Toy Pistol.
Hot Springs, Jan. 4.—Again
has the deadly toy pistol done its
work. Little Earl Zimmerman,
only son of Fred Zimmerman, a
well known Malvern avenue gro
ceryman, accidentally shot him
self in the hand with a blank
cartridge on Christmas day, the
wound being of an apparently
small nature and little attention
was paid to it. Blood poisoning
set in and although everything
was done possible the little fel
low died last evening.
EFFECTS OF SPRING FEVER
When the Outer World Is Allowed
Once Hore to Enter the

yesterday was nice and coay becomes
too dry and baking for endurance,
says McClure’* Magazine. The young

with the brilliant glow of winter, but
a sort of scalded red. They juke their
heads forward to escape their collars'
moist embrace; they reach their hands
back of them to pull their clinging
underwear away. They fan themselves
with joggerfles, and puff out: ‘‘Phew!’'
and look pleadingly at the shut win
dows. One boy, bolder than his fel
lows, moans with a suffering lament:
"Miss Daniels, cain’t we have the
windows open? It’s awful hot!’’
Frightful dangers lurk in draughts.
F’resh air will kill folks. So, not until
the afternoon is the prayer answered.
Then the outer world, so long exclud
ed, enters once more the schoolroom
life. The mellifluous crowing of dis
tant roosters, the rhythmetic creaking
of a thirsty pump, the rumble of a
loaded wagon, the clinking of ham
mers at the blacksmith shop, the
whistle of No. 3 away below town, all
blend together in the soft spring air
into one lulling harmony.
Winter’s alert activity is gone. Who
cares for grades and standings now?

! RUIN THE PICTURES.
PEOPLE WHO “BUTT IN'” WHEN
CAMERA IS WORKING.
—
Scene# Carefully Arranged by Mov*
lng Picture Artists Are Dis
turbed and Rendered
Useless.
“Our wt>rk Is sometimes ieriously
interfered with by the buttinskis, and
then again there are times when their
•lamming in helps us," said the man
ager of a moving picture concern, who
himself frames up the Incidents and
supervises the taking of the plcturea
“It Is impossible to guard against th#
folks with the buttlng-tn habit, for
when they see anything unusual com
ing off on the street or In any public
(plac# their natural busybody Instinct
takes hold of them, and they’re bound
to nudge up and take a hand la the
proceedings.
“Over in Trenton a few weeks age
I fixed up a horsewhipping scene.
The first part of the set was easy
enough to get It was a scene In a
| restaurant. In which a pretty girl,
seated at a table a little distance away
from another table at which a frolic
some man with a homely wife Is din
lng, falls to making goo-goo eyes at
the man.
“The second scene, in which I ar
ranged to have the horsewhipping take
place, took place outside the restau
rant. We’d got police permission to
take the pictures, and I had two or
three men stationed in front of the
restaurant to keep the crowd back
while the phony horsewhipping was In
progress.
“When everything was all set and
the machine was snapping away at the
homely wife laying the lash across
the face and shoulders of the flirta
tious girl—the lash looked like rattan,
but It was a phony, and didn’t hurt
at all—our troubles began.
"First a big vannlgan of a man
slammed In and grabbed my homely
woman by her lash-wielding arm,
bawling that he didn't believe In see
ing no woman stinging another wom
an like that, and that queered one set
of films. The machine had to be
stopped while the big buttinski was
being Informed that the thing was
only a tableau, and that he didn’t
belong to the picture.
“He took the gibes of the crowd sour
ty, at that, and looked to be in so
much of a mind to kick our gear to
pieces that I had to get a cop to walk
him down the street.
“When we got all set again and the
horsewhipping of the flirtatious girl
was once more going on a scrawny
hatchet-faced woman, who had Just
Joined the outer circle of the crowd,
and who wasn’t up to what was com
ing off, rushed into the scene with *
shriek, grabbed my two acting women
by the hair, and started in to rough
house them both for their ‘indecency
in fighting on the street,’ as she yelled
at them. The machine had to be
stopped again.
“The incident as I had framed it
up didn’t call for anything like that
I had it arranged that after the whip
ping had proceeded for a space the
guilty husband of the homely wife
was to rush in and attempt to sep
arate the two women, when Lis wife
was to turn on him with the lash, caus
ing him to skiddoo down the street.
The girl with the goo-goo eyes was to
Bftize the whip from the other wom
an’s hands and start in to get hunk
for the cutting she’d received, the
9cene ending up that way.”
DETHRONING OF ALCOHOL.
Being Brought About by the Mod
ern Spirit of Scientific
Research.
Another potent factor in the dethron
ing of alcohol has been the spirit ol
scientific research of recent years, says
an Open Letter, in Century. In the
great laboratories scientists have been
carefully studying the effects of alco
holic liquors upon the various organs
of the body, and, although they differ in
their conclusions upon some poiuts, the
result is that those physicians who have
most closely followed these investiga
tions have, almost or entirely, abjurea
alcoholics as a necessary part of their
therapeutic outfit. These elaborate
studies of alcohol have convinced many
that the nourishing and strengthening
properties formerly ascribed to alcohol
ics existed only in the imagination, and
| belong to the errors of an age which had
I no facilities for accurate observation.
I The food qualities of the grains and
! fruits, it is now believed by many au
i thorities, are destroyed in the process of
| making alcoholic drinks. Even the
i stimulating qualities ascribed to alcohol
are denied by many, who class it among
1 the narcotics because of its depressant
effect.

| VICTIMS IN TIMES OF PEACE
Said That Railways Kill and Maim
More Men Than the Blood
iest of Wars.
When the young men of the coua
; try are called forth to war, they marca
I through the streets with flags flying
end bands playing Inspiring music.
The people crowd the street* and greet
them with applause. When news of a
battle Is received, the entire nation
Is sad at the story of lives destroyed.
Those who thus die are honored for
their heroism, and monuments are
erected to their memory, while those
who return maimed are pensioned.
Not so. however, the army which g.<«*

every nine of the Injured will be killed,

as to their families and friend*.
A more vivid notion of the destruc
tiveness of railroads may be had by
considering the fact that In the great
Crimean conflict, which was one of th»
bloodiest wars In history, the British
lost less than half as many slain and
wounded as were killed and maimed
on the Iron roads in this country dur
ing last year. In any twelvemonth
about 60,000 persons are killed or ln
| jured on the railroads of the United
States—a much greater number than
fell at the battle of Sedan, which
6ealed the fate of the second empire of
France. Wellington won Waterloo,
and Meade Gettysburg, with losses ot
3,185 and 23,003 respectively, and the
total losses on both sides at Shiloh
In the two days' murderous flight did

In the United States last year than
three times the number of union men
slain at the battles of Lookout Moi^- ,
tain. Missionary Ridge and Orchard
Knob combined. The number of in
jured among these workers In the
transportation business was greater
than that of the wounded and missing
at Shiloh, Antietam and the First and
Second Bull Run combined. More
faithful toilers on the Iron roads of
this country went down In Budden
death during the twelvemonth than
perished in the Battle of the Wilder
ness.
Each year, one In every ten train
men in the United States (this term
including engineers, firemen, conduc- |
tors and brakemen) is injured, and one
in every 135 is killed. Two hundred
and fifty men are killed and 2,800 are
disabled in an average twelvemonth,
while coupling or uncoupling cars. In
the same length of time 95 persons are
•lain and 990 Injured, by being
knocked from cars by bridges and oth
er obstacles at the side of the track.
On the other hand, only one passenger
is killed fpr every 1,880,000 carried,
and one hurt for every 97,000. The
average passenger travels 2.946,272
miles before he is injured, and he goes
67,000,000 miles before he loses hia
life.
FAMOUS FOR INDUSTRY.
Sobriety and Decency of Life a Mark
of the German Peasant of
To-Day.
The bauer (peasant farmer) hugs ths
soil, and will waste none of it for
i hedges. He cultivates his land In ob
I long plots, each strip carrying one
1 crop—corn, rye, tobacco, beet, man
gold, turnip or what not, says a let
ter In the London Spectator. He works
in summer from light to dark; in
winter as it suits him. His fruit trees
are planted along the roads and field
paths which run through and separate
the tillaged acreage whereof his vil
lage is the pivot.
He inherits the land as his father
inherited it before him. and each herit |
able portion is supposed to furnish ,
sustenance for so many lives. He [
swinks to keep clear of the money- j
ending shark, and here industrialism
helps. For if brothers and sisters j
throng past ability of support from '
the land, they take work at the near- |
est factory, infrequently several miles j
distant. That eases the ancestral lean- j
ness, and makes readjustment feas
ible. However the bauer may moil
week in, week out, his linen is spot
less and his clothes uasoiled on Sun
days. His wife would scorn herself
were they otherwise. Somewhat un
couth, rough, bluff, shrewd, stanch, the
military authorities wisely take heavy
toll of his sound lungs and muscular
limbs. They know a man when they
see one. And women do much of the
actual farm work in Germany as a
consequence.
What hard-working mothers, and
i wives and daughters are the women
ot Germany! What splendid women!
! What does not that great nation owe
to its women! Broad-bosomed, deep
chested, wide-backed, big-hipped, rare
ly beautiful, but, however plain, pleas
ant-faced, healthy creatures. No shirk
ing of maternity with them. And
their husbands’ comrades and sharers
of their troubles always, yet always,
it would seem, making Peter’s Injunc
tion their absolute rule of conduct.
Inappropriate Ornaments,
j On taking their seats for the first
time on the bench at the newly erected
courthouse at Delmerhorst, Germany,
the judges were much perturbed to
find that the architect had ornament
ed the portico with the sculptured
head of a fox on one side and that o 1
a sheep on the other.
