BOulanger.

PARIS, June 4.-General Boulanger
took his first step in parliament for
the revision of the constitution. He
gave notice that. he would submit a
a proposal for revision of the con-
stitution and would demand urgency
therefor. He read a preamble, stating
that the elections which had produced
80 great manifestations in his favor,
compelled him to call attention to the
sutferings of the country and the
imminent crisis which threatens to
become so serious that France, he
declared, no longer feels the confidence
of the future which is necessary to every
we'll governed country. This etatement
met with loud dissent.

A Great Battle

Is continually going on in the human
system. The demon of impure blood
strives to gain victory over the con-
stitution, to ruin health, to drag victims
to the grave. A good reliable medicine
like Hoods Sarsaparilla is the weapon
with which to defend ones self. drive
the desperate enemy from the field, and
restore peace and bodily health for
many years. Try this peculiar medi-
cine. 2

A DISASTROUS FIRE
The Wholesale District of st. Pau
Visited By Another Con-
flagration.
Foot, schulze & Company's Whole
-a sale Shoe House Burned-Loss
$3.50, 600. ..E

ST. PAUL, Feb 1S.-Another disastrous
fire visited the wholesale district Monday
morning. About O'Clock t. mercurial
alarm in the Ryan block called the fire
department to the corner of East Third
street and Wacouta. The upper two
stories of that portion of the build
ing occupied by Foot, Schulze & Co.
were filled with smoke. The Ryan
block is Immediately opposite the building
of Beaupre, Keogh & Co., which burned
several weeks age, land whose ruins are still
smouldering. Despite the efforts to sup
press it, the fire soon had possession of
the entire portion occupied by Foot,
Schulze & Co. The fire, as nearly as
could be judged by the firemen, origi-
mated on the fifth floor. At 10 time was
there any blaze to be noticed, the dense
volumes of smoke preventing the fireinen
from getting through the several fioors.
The Ryan Drug company, next door to
the fire, will be damaged as
nearly as the attaches could tell
about $50, 600, wholly by water aud
smoke. Mr.. Schurmeier, of Foot, Schulze
& Co., said that his firm carried stock
of $3.50, 900 or 100000. The insurance
on their stock would be about $2T0, 600.
Their loss on stock and machinery is
nearly total. f~ r -.
Foote, Schulze g. Co. have as yet no
definite plans, but will doubtless resume
business as quickly as the circumstances
will allow. One fireman was seriously
injured during the fire by the nozzle of
the hose, which he was helping to sup
port, falling on his back.

The car was filled with people on
their way to the ferry. The engine
crashed through the roof of the car and

Chronic Tea Poisoning.

what extended investigations on the sub
ject. These were that the poison is not
readily eliminated, but accumulates in the
system; that its prominent effect is on the
young and those who are in depressed
physical condition; that the average
amount of Oolong and Souchong teas

furious symptoms is a little less than five
cups a day, and that the most common
symptoms are loss Of appetite, dyspepsia,
palpitation, headache, vomiting and nau
sea, combined with various forms of
functional nervous affections, historical
and neuralgia. s..
These results have been confirmed ny
further investigations - mostly among
women who are accustomed to drink a
considerable amount of tea daily, without
taking adequate food, and when in an ex
hausted condition. The vigorous and
well nourished and those actively engaged
in the open air are not often similarly af-
fected.
The nervous disturbance, due to chronic
tea poisoning, is of peculiar character.
Says DR.. Bullard: 1.-THE normal condition
of the nervous system is disturbed and re-
placed by condition of hyper-excitabil-
ity, or Of less stable equilibrium. This is
shown by their want Of calmness, their
general restlessness and irritability, and
the desire to be constantly moving, while,
at the same time, there is a subjective SEN
sation of loss of self control, and Of in
ability to act slowly. Such persons are
subject to exaggerated efforts from ordi-
nary impressions; they are startled, jump
at unexpected noises or sensations, or, in
other words, react too freely to slight ex-
ternal influences. youths Companion.
