TERRIBLE EXPLOSION!
Too High Pressure.

In these days of keen competition in every
line, when the business man is compelled to
bend his intellect and every energy to the
success of his business the clerk, book
keeper, professional man and laborer, to
drive themselves at Il terrific rate. there can
be but one result-an explosion, which. if
not resulting in immediate death, leaves
them with shattered brains and bodies.
They are running at too high pressure.
The strain Is too great. Something must
and does give way. This is equally true of
women. Though their sphere is more
limited, they have their daily burdens, frets,
and worries, and the results are the same as
with their stronger companions
This condition is growing worse every
day. The Iapidity of its increase is awful
to contemplate. Our homes, hospitals. and
insane asylums are full of these unfortunates,
and are being crowded still further. There
is but one solution Of the matter. Recog-
nize the importance of the situation at once
and take the necessary measures to over
come it. If you have failing memory, hot
flashes, dizziness, nervous or sick headache,
biliousnesS, irritability, melancholy, Sleep
lessness, fainting, nervous dyspepsia, epi-
lepsy. etc, know that any one of them is but
a symptom of the calamity that may befall
you, and even though you have used So
called remedies and treated with reputable
physicians with little or no benefit, give Dr.

upon for nervous disorders.

Never do otherwise than grease

be used in the gems"

on the proper fats for pastry were en-

For making pastry, butter made
from pure Jersey stock is best" said
Mrs. ROrer. II cannot believe that
good pastry was ever made from pastry
lard. Pastry lard contains a surplus of
stearine, which separates out. Oleo.
margarine will take the place of butter
satisfactorily in some cases. It makes
delightful pastry, but not good cake,
because it contains too much stearine."
