Nervous Headache.

There are many kinds Of headaches.
In these days the nervous headache is
a very distinct variety. II is gem
orally located in front OF the head,
across the forehead over the eyes. Ii
may be in other parts, though-at the
top Of the head, at one or both sides,
at the back, or all over. IL is painful,
depressing, disabling. A man feels
at the height of the paroxysm like a
hunter who has galloped his legs
clean of, and who could not leap
three foot ditch TO save his life. The
spur is Of no use, neither is the whip.
The pain in the head is worse TO bear
than either. and the patient will
rather endure both whip and spur
than make any kind Of effort which
will make the head pain worse.
Physic by itself is Of no use. There is
not single drug known 10 medical
science which will of itself al once
and permanently cure a nervous head
ache
On the other hand drugs are not al
ways needed. A complete change of

AN ANTI-CATHOLIC PROTEST.
Canadian Protestant. Assert that They Are

Canadian Protestants Assert That They Are
Disseminated Against in Many Matters.
MONTREAL, April 26.-Queen's Hall WAS
packed tonight, the occasion being an anti
Jesuit mass meeting. Among the speakers
were John Charlton, M. P; Colonel
O'Brien, M. P; L. H. Davidson, J. J. Nc
Laren, Q. c., and Rev. Principal Mac
Vicar. 1t was resolved that the meeting
express strong displeasvre atthe law of COM
pulsory tithing, at the law by which par
ishes exist and can be erected for civil pur-
poses; at the priority of the church's claims
over those of all other creditors, and at those
provisions of marriage laws which give
financial, civil and religious advantages to
the Roman Catholic church which are
denied to Protestants, and that the meeting
regard these and all other provisions law BY
which connection between,t the State and the
Roman Catholic church exists, as creating
inequalities and imposing disadvantages on
the Protestant minority, which no subject Of
Her Majesty in this Dominion should be
called upon to endure.
Continuing, the resolutions say: eve
further protest against any acceptance Of
the supremacy of the Church over the
State, and the practice of giving equality of
position on State occasions to the chief Off
Ger of the Roman Catholic Church with Her
Msjesty's representative in the province. I"

THE LOST ATLANTIS.

For many centuries there has been a tradi-
tion of long lost island called Atlantis.
The Greek geographers located it in the At
lantic Ocean, west of the northwest part of
Africa and the Pillars of Hercules. The sea
kings of Atlantis are said to have invaded Eu-
rope and Africa, and to have been defeated by
the Athenians.
All the legends agree that 1t was vast island,
Of inexhaustible resources, and inhabited by a
race of superior people. For ages this island
has existed only in legendary lore. But now,
when the light of modern research is turned
full upon the investigation, behold the lost At
lantis at our very doors.
So the bigoted medical fraternity goes Crop
ing about in the dark If they would investi-
gate, they would behold the lost Atlantis at
their very door. They experiment and dose
with their injurious drugs, and with no person
or laws to hold them accountable, they con-
tinue their bigoted, unjustifed practice, staring
into vacancy, imagining that they see in them
selves an Esculapius.
Wrapped in ancient bigotry, they denounce
any new idea advanced by layman or an oppo-
sition school as fraud.
Why?
Because humanity wilt not be benefited? Not
at all. but because their special ism did not
make the discovery
Yet they concede that there is no remedy
known to their materia medica that will cure
an advanced kidney malady and the diseases
arising therefrom-although many of them
know from crowning proof that Warmers Safe
Cure will-but unscrupulously treat symptoms
and call them a disease. when in reality they
know they are but symptoms
A few of the more honest physicians admit
that Warmers Safe Cure is valuable remedy,
and great blessing to mankind, but say, in so
many words, when asked why they do not pre-
scribe it, that they cannot, according to their
code. {

and showed his opinion of such bigotry, and no
doubt was satisfied that Atlantis might posi-
bly, be discovered in proprietary medicine,
when he wrote editorially as follows:
Nevertheless, it is fact that many of the
best proprietary medicines OF the day were
more successful than many of the physicians,
and most of them, it should be remembered,
were first discovered or used in actual medicaI
practice. When, however. any shrewd person,
knowing their virtue, and foreSeeing their pop
ularity, secures and advertises them, then, in
the opinion of the bigoted, all virtue went out

DO LUCID INTERVALS ooUNTs
A Nice Question us to the Sanity and thi
Wills Of Mrs. HnzIaff.


A Nice Question as to the Sanity and the
Willis of Mrs. HazIett.
AM argument was had in the Orphans
Court yesterday in the proceedings insti-
tuted by @. F. McKenna, ESQ.,, to have the
estate of Mrs. Mary Med. Hazlett, of Eliz-
abeth, escheated to the State. Mrs. Hazlett
was lunatic, and died, leaving no heirs.
Her estate is worth about 5000 Her
latest will, which gave her property to the
commissioner who had charge of her, was
presented, but the Register would not ad-
NIT it to probate, on the ground that it was
made while Mrs. Hazlett was insane. The
case was taken to the Supreme Court, where
Register Conner was sustained.
A second will, made prior to this one,
was then filed. It left the estate to the rel
atives of Mrs. Hazlett's deceased husband.
It was admitted to probate, though it was
also made after Mrs. Hazlett was declared
a lunatic. The reason for probsting it was
that it was made during a lucid interval
and made sane disposition Of the property,
Mrs. Hazlett having obtained her wealth
from her husband and it was but proper
that it should go back to bis relations.
At this juncture Attorney McKenna,
having received authority from the Auditor
General of the State, commenced the es-
cheating proceedings, which. are contested
by the benefciaries under the will.
Mr.. McKenna argued yesterday that Mrs.
Hazlett, being lunatic, could not make a
will at all, and, having died without legal
heirs, the property should 60 to the Govern
ment.
This was opposed by Messrs. Robb and
Fitzsimmons, on behalf of the will, who
argued in support of its validity. No de-
cision was given.

Wayne and Richmond, and IIS
miles from Cincinnati by rail, or
about 90 miles in a direct line. 1t
is in the largest continuous district
of natural gas-bearing land in the
world-a district which has been
developed and tested by hundreds
of gas wells, demonstrating beyond
all doubt that the gas supply is in
exhaustible, and its quality for fuel
and illumination unsurpassed. The
gas wells now in use at Portland
have an output of over $1,000, 900
cubic feet daily, and this supply
may be increased ad infnitum.
The Grand Rapids and Indiana
Railroad and the Lake Erie and
Western Railroad give Portland a

aic rock there are fragments of the lower
silurian limestone-from north of Ontario,
and in Lawrence and Beaver counties there
are large masses of conglomerate from the
strata in the country around Oil City and
Titusville, and pieces of fossiliferous sand
stone from the vicinity of jamestown, n. Y,
and Chautauqua Lake.
Previous to the advent of the great gla-
cier, a tropical climate prevailed as far
north as the great lakes, and the fauna and
fora of the heated latitudes fourished in
Pennsylvania and all over what is now
known as the United States.
TROPICAL PITTsBURG.
Palm trees and other allied speeies grew
thick on the hills and in the valleys, and
there were dense, impenetrable jungles, such
as Livingstone described in his travels
through Central Africa. In these immense
forests gigantic mammals, long since extinct,
such as the mastodon, tapir and their allied
species, roamed at will, and huge, hideous
saurians, go feet in length. dragged their
bulky forms along the ground. The collared
peccary also existed here at the time, and made
his nest in hollow logs in the dense tropical
forests that then stood on the present site of
the great city OF Pittsburg. Other animals
of a much fiercer disposition than the masto-
don and tapir existed, aad wild, hairy men,
clad in skins, or probably naked, hunted
their prey in the woods, and at night re-
treated to caverns for shelter and rest.
Strange and wonderful as this sketch of q
prehistoric world may appear, it is never
theless not overdrawn; the facts upon which
it is based are the deductions of science. No
better evidence of the existence of such 8
wondrous fauna and fora could be asked
than theremains of tropical trees dug out of
the alluvial deposits of Canada, and the
skeletons of mastodons found entire in the
swamps of Ohio and New York. The bones
of the peccary and tapir are found in In
diana, and strong evidences of pre-glacial
man in Europe suggest his existence here at
the same lime.
Astronomy tells us that there is a gradual
motion of the earth's axis toward the plane
of its orbit, which produces in time wonder
full changes in the temperature of the hem
ispheres, and that this same cause which,
in a remote prehistoric time, produced q
thickening of the polar ice cap, till it
moved down across the greater part OF the
Northern Hemisphere and annihilated all
traces of life on its path is still in operation,
and must, in the far-distant future, produce
the same effects again.
1t was the operation of this law which
caused the last great glacier which annihi-
hilated all tropical life in North America,
and carried the debris of Canadian rock
formation as far south as the hills of Ken
lucky. 7. e. MALONE.
