WAKEFULNEss FROM OvERWoRK.-A
symptom of mental exhaustion, indicative
of very great degree of mental strain, is
persistent Wakefulness. The physiological
cause of this condition is well understood,
During excessive labor of the brain tha
is an increased flow of blood to the wQ
ing organ, the vessels of the head anu
become distended with blood, as is shI
by the flushing of the face. If this Cd
ton of distention is long continued,
vessels are apt to lose the power of
tracing when mental activity is dimin
ed. Hence arises the impossibility of
filling the physical conditions of sleep,
most important of which is the dimi1'
ton of the flow Of the vital fluid to Il
brain.

THE CURCULIo.--A Mr.. Window, Of
Michigan, has discovered, he thinks,
remedy for this plague, and after sixyears
experience he feels safe in recommending
it as effectual. 1t is to smoke the plum
trees with burning coal tar, process
which costs little and was discovered by
accident. He takes frying pan with a
long handle, and in it mixes one pound of
sulphur and one gallon Of coal tar, and as
soon as the fruit bursts it's petals until it
is as large as small-sized hickory nut, he
smokes the trees every alternate morning
while the dew is on, often making the
foliage black with the smoke. The result
couvinces him that with reasonable labor,
the plum crop is certainty. his own crop
succeeding every year under this treat
ment, whilst his neighbors fail entirely.

HEALTH MEYERS. Never eat hurrieds
ly, because it causes Indigestion.
Never speak in hurry, because it is
ominous of instability.
Never think on going to bed, because it
makes wakefulness.
Never eat between meals, because it
produces irritation.
Never dine in excitement, because the
blood is called to the brain, which ought
to aid digestion.
Never swallow food without thorough
chewing, because it brings on dyspep-
STA.
Never eat when you do not want it, 5e-
cause when you shall want you cannot
eat. -ea-ssa-
Never sleep with your mouth open, be-
cause the air breathed with carbonic acid
disturbs the mucous membranes.
Never go to rest without washing the
hands and face, because more dirt accu-
mulates on the skin in the day than night,
and is re-absorbed during the night.

AN IMPORTANT WITNESS IN DURANGO
VILLE.-The shepherd dog which has thus
far played so important a part in the at
tempted rape of Mrs. Gillian by the negro
Aaron Marshall, is confined III a box at
police headquarters, and has every neces-
sary attention. His tax has been paid, and
he will be an important witness in the
prosecution of Marshall before the Circuit
Court Of Amherst. 1t will be remembered
that Marshall was tracked, arrested, and
subsequently identified by Mrs. Gillian by
means of this dog, which is fine speci-
men of the shepherd breed, and which,
once seen, would necessarily be recognized
again. AS all the witnesses testified to
the identity of the dog, and the prisoner
averred that he was with him during the
entire day upon which the outrage was at
tempted, his Importance in the case IS
readily apparent. -Lynchbawq Neaus.

SWIFT RETRIBUTIoN.-Thef following is
from the Lexington (Kentucky) sPress"
GA widow lady residing in Anderson
county had for some time been expecting
money from Washington, for an army
claim she had against the Government,
and one day last week she received the
money, $500. That night she was visited
at very late hour by several men disguis-
ed as negroes, who, with drawn pistols and
threats of death, demanded the money
Mrs. -- was compelled to yield, but
begged the robbers to leave $125 to pay her
nephew, from whom she had borrowed
that amount some time previous, and
whom she had promised to pay when her
'sarmy money" came. The robbers at first
refused, but were finally induced to yield
to Mrs. -'s appeals, and agreed to give
her back the 1925 if she would get them
something to eat. Mrs. went about
preparing supper, and seasoned it heavily
with poison she happened to have about
the house. The thieves ate heartily, and
two of them were found dead the next
friday morning, and Mrs. -- was
Mortified at identifying one of them as her
nephew, from whom she had borrowed the
1925. We have not as yet been able to
ascertain any further particulars, and give
this as it was told by MI. Hastings"

This morning, In company with Mr..
Overton, Superintendent Of the Viz
ginla and GOld. Hill Water Company,
we dove out to the reservoir near tho
Toll House on the Ophir grade. for the
purpose Of witnessing the Introduction
OF n large number Of young trout Into
that mimic lake.
The trout, which are n year old,
were procured at u iish-hatching es-
tablishmcnt located somewhere on tae
Truckee. and wero shipped from thence
to Virginia by rail- IN barrels. A man
was detailed to attend to the trout, aud
In asa their supply Of oxygen gave

Of the trout must have bit him. VI

C.a00l he Informed US that only six
had died on the road.
The barrels filled with live trout
were placed Oh an express wagon u
transported to the reservoir without
delay. The man In charge OF the
workmsn employed about tho ressr-
voir remarked a~mblguously. as MIR.
Oyerton dumped the specklsd beauties
Into the reservoir. that he hoped they
wouldn't ..gs up the fiume." Master
Jimmy Fair. who had risen at 4 A. n.
TO witness the transplantation Of the
trout, watched the proceedings with
profound Interest. lie suggested that
q half q dozen dead ones lying on the
platform be thrown Into tho water,
thinking that perhaps once In their ma
tive element they might become re.
vivifled. The Superintendent alter
breathing q silent prayer that the lit
tie fishes might DO fruitful aud multi
ply, proceeded to show US what had
been accomplished In the way OF I'm
proysments about the premises.
