Tired
Nervous
IWhen you feel languid, tired,
nervous and irritable, your vi
tality is low—your supply of
nerve energy exhausted, and
your system running down for
lack of power,
The organs of the body are
working poorly, or not at all,
and you are not getting the
nourishment needed. This soon
impoverishes the blood and in
stead of throwing off the im
purities, distributes it all
through the body. This brings
disease and misery.
Feed the nerves with Dr.
Miles’ Nervine, a nerve food, a
nerve medicine, that nourishes
and strengthens the nerves, and
see how quickly you will get
strong and vigorous.
"My wife suffered with nervousness
previous to a recent attack of typhoid
fever, but after her recovery from the
fever, she was much worse, and could
hardly control herself being exceed
ingly nervous when the least excited.
She was very restless at night, and
never had a good night's rest. She
also suffered much from nervous head
ache. Dr. Miles' Nervine was recom
mended by a friend. After the first
three doses she had a good night's
rest, and at the end of the first week’s
treatment she was wonderfully im
proved. Continuedvuse of Nervine has
completed her entire cure.”

Interesting study Indeed. How did I
Como 10 indulge in bucu » eirauge isui
Well, in my youth I made a study of
anatomy, and became Intensely inter
ested in the construction of the human
frame. I gradually acquired a taste for
this form of bric-a-brac.
T got my real start aa a collector o!
skulls in 1887. During excavations in
Bt. Joseph on property in the possession
of my father several specimens of an
ancient case were exhumed, and
straightway found a resting place upon
a shelf in a cabinet in my home. I vis
ited the former home of the mound
builder In Colorado and New Mexico,
where other specimens of the ancient
Inhabitants were discovered. They dif
fer materially from the skulls found in
St. Joseph. Then I visited the holy land
In search of specimens. From there I
drifted to the lands of the Ptolemies of
Egypt. Here some valuable acquisi
tions were made. I have tramped over
the Pampas of South America, the moun
tains of Peru and Chili, and even pene
trated Into the wildernesses of the Ama
zon, where, in deposits of earth and
■tone, I have brought to light perfect
specimens of humaa skulls, represent
ing periods which history does not
ehronicle.
"In my experiments I have found that
some skulls take on a very beautiful
polish, and I must say that, under the
hand of a skilled artisan, they are mads
magnificent These specimens occupy a
cabinet by themselves. I have a number
of skulls taken from the! wreck of the
Galveston storm. I also have specimens
from other disasters on this and other
continents. Five victims of the Mont
Pelee disaster are represented in my
collection. This business of collecting
ikuils is a great aid in the study and re
tention of important facts in history. 1
have in my possession the skulls of men
at times prominent in the history of
this nation. How I came to have them
I do not care to say. However, money
|s a means of gratifying the tastes of
anyone who cares to make a collection
3f this kind. Because I have acquired a
(iking for this work, I spend much time
luring the winter months wandering
about between rows of grinning head\
philisophizing, after the fashion of ths

her that the existence of the club was j

Philippine Positions Not Wanted.
Positions In the Philippines seem to
go begging. Several months ago CoL
Edwards, chief of the insular bureau,
ealled upon the civil service commis
sion to certify candidates for 150
teachers' positions paying from $2,000
to $900 per annum. There were few
applicants, fewer took the examina
tion, and only 42 were found eligible
for appointment. Another examina
tion wili, therefore, be held early in
October. The Insular bureau will not
permit women to take the examina
tion for these positions, and the du
ties or pay of pedagogue do not seem
to appeal to the young men of the
country.

MOCCASINS FOR SOLDIERS.
Inquiries Hade by Representatives el
Powrs at War for “Bangor’s
Golden Slippers.”
Inquiries have been received in
Bangor, Me., from persons sup
posed to represent either the Rus
sian or the Japanese government
concerning prices for moccasins
in large quantities end the earli
est date of delivery at Atlantic or
Pacific ports. It is supposed that
the moccasins are wanted for sol'
diers campaigning in Manchuria.
For that purpose they would be
eminently suitable, says the New
York Sun.
The moccasin is the favorite
footwear of the lumbermen of
Maine, and was first made in Ban
ger in 1851. At first only one or
two styles were made, but now
moccasins are manufactured in
great variety, ranging from slip
pers for women and children—
soft as kid and embroidered with
beads—to the stout boots and lar
rigans of the Penobscot lumber
men.
Much of the sewing is still done
by hand, being let ont by the piece
to French Canadian families in
the neighborhood of Bangor. A!1
moccasin* are made of a specially
prepared leather, rendered a gold*
en yellow by a peculiar process of
tanning.
The common moccasin Is not
proof against water, but it has
toom for several pairs of stock
ings, and that is a strong point in
its favor. For keeping the feet
warm and dry in cold weather the
moccasin has no equal.
The greater part of the mocca
sin leather still comes from the
place of its origin, Pawtucket,
R. I., although a considerable
quantity is tanned in Bangor.
Some years ago Bangor men es
tablished factories at Red Wing,
Minn., and Racine, WTis.
The dainty bath slippers, which
are not really moccasins, but are
made from soft elk skin, are in
great demand at home and abroad,
and are especially favored by the
ladies of Japan, to which country
Bangor sends large quantities. It
now seems likely that “Bangor’s
golden slippers,” as moccasins are
caHed, may be worn by the con
tending armies in Manchuria.
JAPAN’S FIRST IRONCLAD,
Sir Crew Made a Brave Start, Bui
Couldn't Stop Her Till Fires
Went Out.
That the role of Japan as a mar
itime power is a new one is
brought strongly to our notice by
recalling the quite well authen
ticated story of the first adven
ture of the first Japanese iron
clad, says Country Life.
She was built in England.
While she was building her erew
were also in England practicing,
in other ironclads how to drive
her. When she was finished the
Japanese seamen took possession
of her, bravely maintaining that
they were fully equal to the task
of starting her.
And that, to be sure, they Were,
for she steamed out finely. The
trouble only began when she came
back .to port again. Then, when
they wanted to slow her down and
stop her, they were unable to do
80.
They had to put her out to sea
again and go on steaming her
about till her fires went out, her
engines stopped for want of
steam, and she could be towed in.
From this to having the best
mentally-equipped crews, perhaps,
of any nation seems a long step,
but it has been a very rapid one.
Insect Senses.
Naturalists have decided that
many insects have senses which
human beings lack. That of loca
tion, shown by the wasp, for in
stance, is remarkable. One spe
cies builds its nest in a sandbank
that is only a part of several acres
of such soil, and when it leaves in
search of food it covers the nest so
carefully that no ordinary eye
could discover its location. That
is to say it is just like all the sur
rounding location, and yet the
wasp flies back to it without hes
itation and finds it without mak
ing a mistake. There is another
wasp that unerringly locates the
eggs of the mason bee under a
thick layer of sun-baked clay, and
deposits her eggs in the same
cells that her young may have
food when they are hatched.
