Love, which governs all thb world,
comes In this story. In the time oil
Louis XIV. there was a maker OF pearl
rosaries and necklaces who was famous
for the exquisite beauty that he gave
them. The ladies came from far and
near TO buy these wondrous beads, foi
from no one else could they be gotten
Vainiy did his rivals try To initiate TIA,
perfect whiteness and polish OF the
beads manufactured by him. With all
his prosperity no was very unhappy and
dreaded To sell his necklaces because OF
the poison tsaid 10 bo mercl Iryl with
which he used 10 give them d heir grea,
beauty. One day his son was astonished

beautiful pearl rosary: Infamous man
that am! May this crime be- my LAST
Soon after war was declared between
France and Flanders, and the old man

Few people outside OF those directly

'You see, said member OF the Arm,
bananas are divided into four classes

These are the very best fruit grown.

ALL AsoUT NERVOUSNESS.
An In.idisus Disease Which Destroys It's
Thousands.

Nervousness, or nervous weakness, is a
disease of comparatively modern growth.
1t loves brilliant mark, and the best and
brightest men and women of our land be-
come its prey. There are. many causes
which bring il on-overwork, worry, inn
proper food, exposure, over-indulgcnce in
alcoholic beverages or tobacco, and excess
es Of different kinds.
Nothing presents more pitiable sight
than person suffering from serious ner-
vous prostitution. Themind becomes weak
and forgetiul; the patient cannot sleep,
and there Are terrible pains in the head.
Feelings Of dependency or depression are
ever present; there is a restlessness Of the
eyes, and disincllnation TO meet people
the features become pale, careworn, and
haggard the muscles weak and tiabby,
and there is general sense of being unfit
for anything.
Some of onr most distinguished people
have trod this awful road which ends in
paralysis, apoplexy, paresis, insanity,
'caih. Happily cure has at last been
iiscoys red for this fearful disease. An
eminent medical gentleman, professor in
Dartmouth College has made a discovery
which win bring happiness TO many a
heart. II is called P.iine's Celery Com
pound, and is natures own restorative for
weakened nervous power. Under its i'm
Migrating and healih-giving action, the
mind will soon regain its yigor; the eyes
will sparkle rs Of old. the muscles become
firm, the nerves strong. the blood win pull
sate rapidly and steadily. and the tide of
health will come back again.
This reliable preparation creates an APP
petite, gives sound sleep and as yet Is the
onlv known remedy for nervous diseases.
II your head aches or yon feel worn, do
not delay the Use of this trne streagthener.
