or sense Of exhaustion and restores one to q perfect
fGi blessing to nervous people. LUCE WERNER"
This wonderful remedy, whose praise is
upon e~verybody's lips, must be the most
marvellous in Its curative powers of any
remedy ever discovered. We hear every
day of remarkable cures of nervousness,
nervous weakness. exhaustion, paralysis or
other nervous diseases effected by this
great nerve tonic and restorative. Here a
person rescued from the grave, rs was Mrs.
Annie Donovan, of A~ttawaugan, Conn.,;
there a case saved from that terrible dis
ease. insanity, as was Mr.. W. G. Miles, Of
40 Blue Hill avenue, Boston, Mass; again,
cures of paralysis Of years standing, like
that of Mr.. Alexander Horn, of the Marine
Asylum, Philadelphia, Pa, who had not
been able to walk before for years; or re-
storation from the severest neuralgia and
rheumatism, like the case Of Mr.. James
Bown, of q Market street. New York City.
Cures of sleeplessness, with nervous and
physical exhaustion, are very frequent, the
wonderful cure of Mrs. W. +. Able, of 10
Affieck street, Hartford, Conn.,, being only
one among thousands. Altogether, the re-
markable powers of DR.. Greens's Nervura
Nerve Tonic in curing all forms Of nervous
diseases like the above, and restoring to
health sufferers from nervousness, nervous
weakness, nervous debility, dependency,
depression of mind, headache, trembling,
~numbness, dyspepsia, indigestion, consti-
patton, the opium or Choral habit, &c,
have demonstrated it to be a remedy of
wonderful powers, and at times of almost
miraculous effects In curing disease. 1t is
not to be wondered at, therefore, that drug
stores everywhere are overwhelmed with
orders for this remarkable remedy, and it
is almost impossible TO supply the demands
from the hundreds OF thousands Of sufferers
from nervous diseases. All druggists keep
the remedy, at 81 per bottle, and its low
price places it within the reach of all. If
your druggist does not have it, he wall get
il for YOU.

The Lessons OF s.Unzer FrItz' Case.

The greatest doctors In Europe don't
seem to know what ails "Unser Fritz. p"
Thus are the Garfield and Grant cpl
sodes repeated, and public confidence in
expert" medical knowledge is again
shaken.
The effect Is q revulsion.
Since the fatal days Of 1888, many of
the doctrines Of the schoolmen concern
ing extensive medication have been
abandoned, and all schools of practice
are more and more relying upon old
fashioned simple root and herb prepar-
atoms and careful nursing,-the only
reliances known to our ancestors.
These methods and reliances are il
Illustrated to-day in a series of old.fash-
Toned roots and herbs preparations

well-known proprietors Of Warmers

use, and issued under the happy desig-
nation OF Warmers Log Cabin Rene

woman to the writer when he was o
boy, "my son, your yeller and pale

good shaking up with some a 'paril',"
A Jug of spring sarssparilla was just
as necessary in the ''winter supplies"
Of fifty years ago as was a barrel Of
pork, and a famous medical authority
says that the very general prevalence Of
the use Of such a preparation as Log
Cabin Sarsaparilla explains the rugged
health of our ancestors.
While Warmers Log Cabin Sarsa-
parilla is al excellent remedy for all
seasons of the year, 1t is particularly
valuable In the spring, when the sys-
tenn is full of sluggish blood and re.
quires a natural constitutional tonic
and invlgorator to resist colds and
pneumonia, and the effects Of 3 long
winter. Philo NJ. Parsons, clerk of the
City Hotel, Of Hartford, Conn.,, was

been for years. have a much better
appetite. l shall take several more
bottles for safety's sake. Warmers
Log Cabin Sarsaparllla is a great blood
purifier and 1 most heartily recommend
it."
A few bottles of Warmers Log Cabin
Sarsaparifia used In the family now
will save many a week OF sickness and
many a dollar of bills. Use no other.
This is the oldest. most thoroughly tes-
ted, and the best, is put up In the lar
gest sarsaparilla bottle on the market,
containing 100 doses. There is no
other preparation of similar name that
can equal 1t. The name Of its manu-
facturers is a guarantee of Its superior
worth.
While the great doctors wrangle
over the technicalIties of an advanced
medical science that can not cure
disease. such simple preparations year
ly snatch millions from untimely
graves.

SCOTS EMULSION Of Pure Cod

SCOTS EMULSION of Pure Cod
Liver Oil, with Hypophosphites, is a
combination Of two of the most valua-
BILE remedies in existence for the cure
Of Consumption and all Wasting Con-
ditions; is more generally recommend
ed and used by Physicians than any
known remedy; it gives most satisfac-
tory results, and tones up the system /;
and when the ~Consumptive has wasted
away and loses hope, the Emulsion
will speedily check the ravages of this
terrible disease, and restore the sufferer
to good health and happiness. This
is equally true in regard to ricketts, in
Children, or Marasmus and Anamia in
Adults, and all impoverished conditions
of the blood and especially desirable
for Colds and Chronic Coughs, as it
will cure them more quickly than ordi-
nary Specifics used. Palatable as milk.

The statement has recently been
made by a practical iron worker of fifty
years experience that not only does
that metal rot from age but that con-
tinual jarring has the effect to weaken
its tensile strength, and illustration of
a familiar kind in this line being afford
ed by the step Of a carriage, which
when new may be bent back and forth
without breaking, but after a few years
service will certainly break, no matter
how well prepared. The same loss of
tensile strength is noted in carriage
springs; the poorest may be safely re-
lied on for a year, but even after that
short time they bain to break, and
those, too. of the best quality will break
after years of constant and exacting
service. 1t has been found that old
crowbars made of the best swedish iron
and used by the early settlers of New
England have become 30 rotten that
they could not be welded when broken,
and had an offensive smell when the
welding heat was applied. Formerly
all iron was wrought by the trip-bam-
mer, which scattered all the brittle and
worthless material, but rolling makes it
possible to run bars through containing
the poorest stock.

To make n gallon Of good liquid
cement or gum about n and a half
gallons Of water, three pounds OF glue,
four ounces OF borax and twoounces of
carbonate of soda, or an equivalent of
any other alkali, are taken. The glue
and alkaline salts are dissolved in the
water by heat, and the solution Is kept
at a Temperature a few degrees below
boiling point for five or six hours. The
continued application of heat renders
the gum permanently liquid at the or

DR.. Seibert, a German-American
physician in New York, a competent
authority on the subject, holds that
pneumonia is a house disease and is In
fictitious, but not contagious. He says.
SIN the warm air of the house the sys-

tho cold is only the producing cause. 1t
prepares the coddled lungs for the pneu-
monia poison, which has its real origin
In damp and dirty rooms or cellars.
What is the cure? Well, the steps to
the cure have unhappily advanced but
little. But the relief and the proven
ton are no medicine and plenty Of fresh

the cast by many scientists, the gain OF
nitrogen by some crops (such as clover
