THE CAUSE OF WEAKNESS.
Why So Many People Feel Weak, Tired and Nervous i'm Spring.
Exhausted Nervous Vitality the
 Real Cause.
HOW This Condition may Be Easily

OGDWSOs HOW This COndition may Be Easily
 Overcome
 The most prevalent complaint at this season of the year is weakness and debility. People have more or less constant of exhaustion or pros- tration getting tired at physical or mental work which formerly could be done with ease. With this weakness there is condition of nervousness ir- ritability, accompanied by languid and enervated feeling.
 The cause is that there is an exhaustion of the nerve powers and prostration of the nervous vital ity This will be readily understood when it is sidered that the system is the main spring, so to speak, of the body that it controls the action of all our organs well as all our movements and is the force by which live. It is plain therefore that when. for any cause, the nervous power, gy and strength is weakened or exhausted. physical prostration, with wrong action of all the organs, must inevitably follow.
 If then, people find themselves Weak, Languid and Tired, with more CT less nervousness they may be certain that it is account of an exhausted nervous vital ity; the nerves have become weak and the genera ton of force has become lessened arrested If this condition is allowed to continue the dis ease to progress. utter physical and nervous pros tration will certainly follow. Persons thus affected are often nervous, sleep less Respondent and mentally depressed; there will
 
 head with bad feelings in the eyes and tired feel ing arising in the morning. There is often dys- pepsia, indigestion, biliousness. constipation or kidney disease
 It is an obvious fact that if cure is to be obtain ed in these cases it be effected only by the use of some remedy which builds up nerve force in the system strengthens the nerves, restores lost ener gy and power and creates healthy action of all the organs.
 A Sure and Positive Cure will be found in Dr. Greene's Nervura Nerve Tonic, and we promise readers that if they will use this wonderful remedy they will be restored to per feet health, strength and vigor.
 This we know is high praise to bestow upon a remedy, but facts will warrant all that has been said; and in affirming that it is the greatest tonic and festorer ever discovered we simply saying what everyone who has used it knows to be @ truth for it's wonderful effects in restoring health strength and vigor to the weakened nerves and debhtated system are without parallel in the history oi medicine Sufferers from any form of nervous dis ease, physical debility dyspepsia indigestion, con- stipation or kidney complaint may easily demon strate for themselves it's great curative power and be restored to health by it's use the remedy may be had at any druggists at $1 per bottle.
 Dr. Greene of 35 West Fourteenth street. New York; the discoverer of this great remedy, is the most eminent of the specialists in the cure of Ter vous and chronic diseases and may be consulted free of charge, personally or by mail.

THE MYSTERY SOLVED.

Mrs. O'ConneII of Birmingham Dies
 from Wounds Received While Str1v.
 ing to Separate Two Members of Her
 Family Who Were Fightiug.
 The mystery surrounding the death of Mrs. Bridget OConnelI of Birmingham has been solved. Coroner Mix and Deputy Cor oner Pond has made a very thorough investi~ gation, and It is aseertained that the woman came to her death in a manner that makes it more than probable that no arrests will be made. There are in the family some of very quarrelsome disposition, and on the night of the tragedy Mrs. O'Conne1 in striving to separate two who were fighting received the wound in the side that eventually caused her death. She did not want to betray the gull ty and so invented the story of the man con- ing to the door. Mrs. O'Connen did not know the wound was necessarily fatal when she told that story to Chief Nolan, and the parties who were engaged in the quarrel fixed their story up after Mrs. o'Connell's death.
 While there is evidence enough to con- vince the authorities as to how the woman met her death, that evidence is not of 8 character that would warrant an arrest, as 1t would hot be sufficient to convict in court.
