The patient having these symptoms, or a por
ton of them, is suffering from nervous debility,
caused by exhausted nervous vitality from those
excuses and abuses which must inevitably grad

ating remedy is used to overcome the weak IS

Luckily, there is a great and wonderful re tt
alive which will give back to the weakened and
exhausted system the strength it has lost mar
velous remedy which imparts strength and vigor
to the brain and nerves, vitalizes and invigorates
all the physical powers, dispels as if by magic,
the dependency and gloom of mind, and re-
stores us again to that grand degree of lusty
strength, of bounding pulse and strong physical

The Oklahoma Destitution.

The present destitution in Okla.
homa is the logical outcome of the
artificial character of its settlement
A Territory that within a few months
developed hothouse towns, which the
ready photographer has made familiar
to Eastern people, having all the
semblance, from distance, of towns
fifty years old, need not be surprised
if such towns, and the economics they
represent, waste away when exposed
to the real facts of frontier life. Okla
homs's budding civilization, therefore.
coddled and fostered and supported
on other than the natural resources of
either soil or citizens as a basis for
life and growth, is withering, shrivel-
ing, and dying, as any conservatory
jessamine, exposed to January's nor
wester.
The English as usual have got the
matter upside down, and the London
Telegraph Of December 90 said {:
"The story of the settlement of Okla
homa is the tale of all the American
Territories and States. The Amcri-
cans are of our own race and we are
proud of them. They made the
wilderness blossom like rose, not by
policy or statecraft, but by the hard
toll of courageous and capable men.
With people so strong and elastic,
Oklahoma will only be an episode
probably to be forgotten before Chi
cago opens her gates to the world in
1896"
1t would have been well If Okla
homa had be en- built by the hard toll
of courageous men but it was not.
The craze for land speculation en-
crossed the attention of the first Legis-
lature recently adjourned. and alto
gether Oklahoma's civilization smacked
Of the packing case. The fashions
were a few weeks behind Paris, it is
true, but still, what with a financial
crisis, bank failures, and rising and
falling booms in real estate and frame
shanties, the new towns contrived to
follow more closely their more august
Eastern prototypes.
The townspeople are. however, not
the sufferers, the destitution being col-
fined to the thousands Of bona fde but
miguided settlers who rushed in, hav-
ing spent their last cent in getting
there, and are now stranded, objects
of charity for the nation to look after.
They are not only land rich and
money poor, but, worse yet, are poor
in everything, including common sense.
While the experience of these un-
fortunates will be most drastic, its eff
feet on the nation at large cannot but
be beneficial, for it will be the simplest
of all object lessons in industrial
economy, that you cannot get some
thing out Of nothing and live on it ;
and that is the secret Of the destitu-
ton in Oklahoma.-Press.

The decision Of the supreme cour,
that the possession Of dead game out
of season cannot be punished unless i,
be proved that the game was killed in
the state, opens way to an evasion
of the game law. In most cases il
would be very difficult matter tc
prove that the game in question hat
been killed within the borders of the
commonwealth if the opposite plea
we're entered and in this way the
charges would fall to the ground
While this decision is doubtless goot
law its effect will be to make con
vlction in cases of violation of the
game laws more difficult.

FAIR ASSOCIATION.

The suggestion of the ARGUS in refer
ence to taking initiatory steps looking to
a county fair, is being earnestly consid-
cred by a number of our citizens and
the matter promises to assume definite
form at nm early date. Horsemen, SO
far a. We a learn, favor the scheme
and will no doubt take the lead in ad.
vancing the project. The plan con-
templated is 10 organize a stock com
pany and place shares on sale as soon
rs possible. There is no question but
the stock would prove a paying invest.
ment the second year. The selection
and purchase of suitable grounds fol
buildings and race course is the first
thing to be done.
Now is the time to take some action
Fergus county can raise the finest o
horses. cattle, sheep, hogs, poultr,
and agricultural products, and a fail
would stimulate a rivalry hat would
result in a benefit to everyone. WI
will soon equal any county in the stat,
in thoroughbred and blooded horses
There is nothing that interests peopl,
more than a test of speed and meta
between horses, and We need not g
away from home to witness such exhi
billions if we go earnestly at work
Grounds can be purchased, a tract
made and a race meeting held this fall
Set the ball rolling.
