Petra, the Rock City of Arabia.

This wonderful city is situated in the
heart of Arabia, under the shadow of
Mt. Hor, about midway between tie
Dead Sea and the Red Sea. 1t was the
rich and prosperous capital of Edom,
surprising in grandeur all other cities in
the world. Its peculiar situation rem
dered it almost impregnable, being built
in canton whose walls rise to perpen-
dicular height of 400 or 800 feet, the only
entrance being narrow cleft nearly two
miles long, and from eight to 20 feet
wide. Petra has been deserted more
than 1900 years, and would have long
ago been obliterated, but for the won
derful temples cut into the surrounding
cliff, and some times rising to a height of
200 feet, each one a single stone.. These
temples are not rudely sculptured; they
are unsurpassed in architectural beauty
and grandeur by any structures on the
earth. They are cut into sandstone
that glows with the most gorgeous col
ors, red, orange, green, black and white.
The inhabitants were bitter foes of the
Jews, whose prophets foretold the COM
plete destruction of this wondrous city.
That prophecy has been literally fulfilled
no one knows how or when. Even
though in ruins, it is far more interesting
than any other city in the world. 1t is
believed by the Arabs to have been built
by enchantment, like the cities of the
Arabian Knights. The Arabs guard all
entrances to their wonderful rock city
. and permit no one to enter therein.

Working the Same Old Racket.
From the Burlington Clipper

The season has arrived when the citi-
zens of the sections of the west, which
were poverty stricken and obliged to beg
for help from the east during the winter
months, can now safely get together, re-
solve that the territory in which they
live is the richest, grandest and most de-
sirable spot on the face of the earth.
These resolutions will of course be
deliberately printed and scattered through
the eastern country with the additional
information that the reports of last win
ter were started by some malicious indi-
vidual, intent on mischief in Gods para

before he had a feeling of strong and vigorous
physical and nerve power, he now has only
sense of weakness, languor, duness and eXhaus-
ton. This is often especially noticeable In the
morning.
The nights sleep, which should refresh the
system and restore strength and vigor to the
nerves and muscles, often leaves the person in
the morning more tired and exhausted than on
retiring.
Business men and clerks, whose prosperity
depends upon their clearness of brain and mind,
find their mental strength impaired and their en-
durance and power to work, read or study dimn-
ished.
Professional men, students and mechanics
often find their power of thought decreased;
where formerly they could endure many conse-
cutive hours of close application of the mind,
they now find the thoughts WANDER and there is
an inability to fix the mind for any length of
time upon one subject; with this there is an eX-
tremely nervous and irritable condition, dull
cloudy sensation, often accompanied by disagree
able feelings in the head and eyes.
AS these SYMPTOMS increase there is usually a
arrangement of the digestive organs, with a
gradual failing of strength and weakness and
pain in the back. There is often bad taste in
the mouth in the morning, the vision becomes

Respondent and suffer from gloom and depres-

ened after time that the least excitement or
shock will flush the face or bring on tremor or
trembling, often attended by more or less pal
pitation of the heart.
