COZY HOME FOR TRAMPS
Wealthiest Hobo in America Flans i
Comfortable Refuge for
the Aged.
Hans Ablehanson, the wealthiest
tramp in America, who several yeari
ago lived at the Waldorf-Astoria in New
York, at the expense of a western rail
road magnate, as a result of a wagei
that Hans could not walk from Tacomc
to Panama in eight months, is to buiic
a home for aged tramps. Hans recent
ly received $25,000 by the will of a rel
ative who died in Sweden, and the monej
is now said to be drawing interest in i
New York bank.
Hans recently disclosed his intentioi
to his friend, Peter Johnson, of Wor
cester, Mass. The other day Johnsoi
was in New York, and, while talking
about Hans’ project, said:
“It sounds like the dream of a crazj
man, but Hans declares that he will
build the tramps' home with his money
He says that he will build his home
somewhere in New England. I asker
him why he didn’t take his money anc
settle down and he said it is much more
!un to be a tramp.
"He said that the only thing he wantet
to get out of his money is a home to live
in when he gets too old to catch freights
bo long as he had to build himself ahoma
he declared that he might as well buiic
one large enough for 25 or 30 of hie
friends. He told me that he knew 5,6o(
tramps on the road In the United States
Some of these friends of his, he ex>
plained, are getting old and stiff and
cannot tramp much longer.
"He plans to put all of his money li
this home for his friends. After it it
built, he argues that by a little work
Buch as broom making or mending chain
or something of that kind, the 25 trampa
who reside within can pay running ex
penses. When I asked him how soon ha
Is going to build this home he said that
he is looking for a suitable place, and
that as soon as he finds one he will taka

No Benefit
No Cost.
If you are weak and worn
out—if you are nervous, irrita
ble, have headache, backache,
neuralgia, or periodical pains, it
is because you have exhausted
your nerve force.
If you cannot sleep, and are
thus robbed of the rest which
nature demands for the restor
ation of mental and physical
vigor, your system will con
tinue to run down.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine restores
vitality by soothing and
strengthening the nervous
system, thus inducing refresh
ing sleep, and imparting
strength and vigor to all the
organs of the body.
There are very few instances
where Nervine will not benefit;
if not, your druggist will re
fund the money.
‘When I began taking Dr. Miles’
Nervine I had a very sour stomach,
with pain extending far around on my
left side—attended with extreme nerv
ousness. I dreaded to have night
come, as it was impossible for me to
sleep. Everything I ate distressed me.
Before I had finished one bottle of
Nervine there was such a change that
my husband bought six more, which
has restored me to health.”
MRS. JENNIE SIMMS.
Rushville, Ind.
Dr. Miles' Nervine is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first bottle will benefit. If it fails, he
will refund your money.
