Life a
Burden
There are times when life
seems a burden—when you are
tired, worn-out, have dull pains
in the head and a continual
feeling of uneasiness. You
have no appetite, and your di
gestion is poor; your sleep
broken, and you get no rest.
Little annoyances seem great
mountains of trouble, and you
are blue, melancholy and given
over to gloomy forebodings.
This means low vitality—ex
hausted brain nerves.
For this condition Dr. Miles’
Restorative Nervine is a spe
cific ; it is a food for the nerves.
It builds up the nervous sys
tem, and restores lost energy.
Try it to-day and see if your
sleep is not sound and refresh
ing, and the morrow brighter
and more hopeful.
“I am glad to announce that I have
recovered my health, as far as my
advanced age will permit, as I am 82
years old. My case was very bad;
my nerves were all shattered. I suf
fered much pain and coldness; was so
weak and felt so sad and lonely and '
heart-broken When l commenced
taking Dr. Miles’ Remedies I was com
pletely prostrated. I have taken the
Restorative Nervine, Heart Cure and
Nerve and Diver Pills, and they cured
me.” MRS. E. C. BAWDBY,

Lake Tahoe.
One of the most beautiful lakes
in the world lies in the heart of
the Sierras on “The Overland
Route,” 6,220 feet above the sea
level, and & completely hemmed
in by mountain walls, whose
rugged peak3 rise in many places
to an additional Height of from
2,000 to 4'000 feet. It is twenty
three miles wide and from 100 to
2,000 feet deep. The entire re
gion surrounding the lake is pic
turesque almost beyond descrip
tion, and a never-ending delight
to the eye. This region is reached
only over the Union Pacific and
its connections, the fast trains
via this route reach California
many hours ahead of all com
petitors. Inquire of

EFFECTS OF SPRING FEYER
When the Outer World Is Allowed
Once More to Enter the
Schoolroom.
But, one day in school, the beat that
yesterday was nice and cosy becomes
too dry and baking for endurance,
saya McClure’s Magazine. The young
ones come in from recess red, not
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, caia’t we have the
windows open? It's awful hot!"
Frightful dangers lurk in draughts.
Fresh 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?
The girls—that always are so smart
—gape lazily, stare at vacancy wish
ing—they don’t know what they wish,
but if he had a lot of money, why,
then they could help the poor, and all
like that, and have a new drees every
day.

COUNTERFEITING SEAWATER
Imitation Successfully Produced for
Inland Exhibition at
Pishes.
Much difficulty has been found hith
erto In keeping marine animals of the
more delicate species alive in artificial
sea water, such as is often substituted
for the real article where aquaria
have to be maintained for months to
gether far from the ocean—for exam
ple, at a great exposition in an Inland
city such as Chicago or St. Louis. It
is not convenient, eays the New York
Herald, to transport the necessary sea
water in tanks for 800 miles or more,
and so sea salt has been commonly
employed, dissolved in fresh water ac
cording to prescription.
Experiments have been conducted
recently at Wood's Holl, Mass., with a
view to counterfeiting sea water with
such exactness as to make it practi
cally indistinguishable from the real
stuff. This, indeed, has been accom
plished so successfully that the most
delicate animals, such as sea ana
mones have been kept alive ia the
artificial fluid for month* . together
Apparently there is no' material dif
ference between the imitation and the
article provided-by-old Napiuae.
To accomplish this result it was
necessary to make quite an elaborate
chemical oompouad, inasmuch as sea
water is a complicated m xture at a
great variety of sitbstanoes Roughly
speaking, it consists of 9%% per oent.
of fresh watei; plus three and one-half
par cent, of mineral salts. Three
fourths of these salts are chloride of
sodium, or common table salt, and the
next largest constituent is chloride of
magnesium. After these oome sul
nhate of maennaium aulnhate of limn
sulphate of potash, bromide of mag
nesium and carbonate of lime.
In addition to these substances sea
water contains minute quantities of
quite a variety of elements, including
iodine, phosphorous and arsenic. It
also contains some silver, copper, zinc,
nickel, cobalt, iron and gold. There is
said to be two cents’ worth of gold in
every pailful of sea water, but as yet
nobody has found a^way to extract It.
Copper and zinc are found in some
seaweeds, and oertaia speoles of coral
is three-millionths silver. . ^ *

TRADE IN WAR l.ELICS.
! _ I
Anything That Will Serve M a M«
uento of Brave Deeds Finds a
Ready Sale.
War medalB, mostly won at. the cost,
jf peril and privation, are pawned by
possessors and never redeemed, or are
tent, to the hammer by needy relatives
mi the decease of the veterans. It may
l>e here noted that no man on the army
ictive strength is allowed to pledge Ills
medals. As is well known, war decora
tions that pass by the means stated,
and otherwise, into commerce, are
eagerly purchased by dealers, who dis
pose of them to museums; also to pri
vate collectors of every grade, from
American millionaires to British pub
licans.
These disks of silver, especially those
swarded for modern campaigns, from
the Crimean war downward, are occa
sionally put by dealers to novel use.
By the aid of a blowpipe the inscrip
tion on the edge can be filled with sil
ver, when the surface, if need be, is
ready for reengraving. Doctoring of
the name, rank and regiment by the
method mentioned is common in the
trade. So it may be that, the virtuoso
who imagines that, ha possesses a me
mento of the late gallant Gen. Fltz Car
nage, K. C. B., who distinguished him
self at Balaklava, would be shocked If
he knew that his pet curio is a fraud
and that it belonged to old Tommy
Atkins, of the Onety-oneth foot., who
pawned it before he retired into the
workhouse to die.
Again, officers serving or retired
sometimes lose their medals, or have
them feloniously annexed. Sooner than
go through the war office red tape mill
to procure duplicates relettered medals
are obtained from dealers. Mendicants
get hold of the medals in order to ex
hibit them to credulous and benevo
lent folks, and thus extract more lib
eral alms. War decorations are also oc
casionally sported by one-armed or sin
gle-legged organ grinders. Such gentry
warrant themselves to be British, and
plead for patronage as a matter of na
tional sentiment and as opposed to the
claims of the Saffron hill musical con
tingent of invaders. These medal-dis
playing humbugs are seldom ex-soi
diers, far less have they been disabled
in active service. They are at times
considerably “out.” in respect of a bit
of medal ribbon shown. For instance,
an organ grinder of about 25 years of
age was observed in Holborn the other
day sporting the Crimean and Mutiny
ribbons!
Sometimes an actor possessed of a
passion for realism, who may have to
impersonate on the stage the hero of
100 fights, invests in real medals with
which to cover the breast of his tunic.
Also genuine war decorations adorn
the uniformed presentments of eminent
warriors in the best-class 'wax exhibi
tions throughout the country. A year
or two ago a paragraph went the rounds
of. the papers, to the effect that a king
of a tribe on the west coast of Attica
had a mania for collecting British war
medals, and that a city firm had a
standing order to supply his sable maj
esty. The king owned a major gen
eral's tunic on which were sewn—both
back and front, and from collar to tails
—medals and clasps from those of the
peniusula and Waterloo downward.
This garment the monarch proudly
sported on extra special state occasions.

LESSONS FROM THE FROG.
Swimmers Osa Get Talsakl* Polat

Methods.
"Those who want to become expert
swimmers will do well to go to the
nearest brook or swamp and study the
manner and method of the frog,” re
marked a teacher of swimming in one
of the natatoriums in the city. “The
most expert swimmers in the world
are tyros compared with the laziest
bullfrogs. The difficulty with all
swimmers is that they spoil the effect
of the stroke by the recovery. When
a frog starts off he draws his legs care
fully and slowly up under him until
he is in the position of a man sitting
on his haunches. Then he suddenly
gives a mighty spring in the water,
kicking his legs out, uot behind him,
but almost directly sidewise. After
l lie tucK u is legs are muwiy a la w 11
gether by his motion through the wa
ter until they hang out behind him in
a perfectly rigid form. Every toe of
his web feet is held out as straight as
an arrow and then nothing retards his
motion through the water. He will lie
in this position until every bit of the
momentum is lost—that ia, until he haa
gone as far as th^Tor™ofMakicfc jyjU
send him through tne water. Then
again he slowly and oarefully draw*
hia legs in and repeats the perform
ance. You will notice that in drawing
the legs up to his body for a second
kick the frog recedes s little. This
is owing to the action of the upper leg
on the water, and it corresponds ex
actly with the almilsr movement on
the part of a man. The first thing s
frog does is to give his body a good
start through the.water,.and be holds
himself in such a way tbaChe gets the
whole value of the stroke. A man
starts, out with just,, such adrfok, but
after, he has gone two or three feet he
will begin to swing his hands forward
or draw up his legs in such fashion
that tht*y offset the whole value of his
work. He stops his own body half
way before the effect of the stroke has
spent itself.”—Chicago Chronicle.
