afternoon by selecting J. J. Hart, of Pike

Babies that are not gaining in weight,
as their mothers wish, and who show too
little animation and interest in things
about them soon gain liveliness and

less; their sleep becomes sound by night,
and by day they are bright and noisy and
happy.

babies that are nourished by lactated food

few who thought he could live. The
mother was unable to nurse him, and this
made the case all the more complicated.
Sterilized milk was used, likewise goats

food, but all to no advantage.
''In July it seemed a hopelses case, but

TO SAVE AMERICAN LIVES

NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 1.-The steamship
Rover, just arrived from Bluehelds, says
the Nicaraguans feared to leave with
their prisoners owing to threatened inter
ference by the warship, and demanded a
guarantee from the commander Of the
schooner Yulu that he would not signal
the warships. Captain Sumner, of the
United States steamer Columbia, advised
the Yulu TO sign no paper and make no
promises. This delayed the matter, but
after three days General Reyes, in com
mand Of the soldiery, decided to take
chances and set sail The prisoners were
taken away without interference by Amer
leans or British.
General Reyes, the Nicaraguan com.
mander, it is since learned, was ready to
blow up the Yulu as soon as any attempt
at rescue was made. Captain Sumner Of
the Columbia, stated afterwards that his
reason for silence was feeling that the
lives Of the prisoners would have been
sacrificed by any act of interference, and
a feeling also that no naval victory or de
struction of regiments would compensate
for loss Of American life.
As soon as the prisoners were taken
away from Bluefelds Captain Sumner
wrote a strong letter to Madrise warning
him that no more such acts must be COM
mitted without expectation of immediate
punishment
After telling Madrise he would be held
responsible for future misconduct the Co
lumbia sailed TO Port Limon for coal and
instructions from Washington. The Mar
blehead returned as the Columbia was
leaving, and Captain O'Neil called on
Madrise at once with similar protest and
warning Then her majesty's ship Mo
hawk came to port and also filed protest
and reproof.

After taking Paine's celery compound
the blood no longer creeps in a thin slug
gish stream, but the arteries gradually
become filed with a rich, strong tide Of
vigorous red blood that reaches and bathes
every tiny nerve and muscle fiber in the
body.
Headache, neuralgia, and loss of appe-
tite and strength cannot continue when
such healthy arterial blood, full of ruddy,
ifegiving corpuscles, and capable Of
quickly repairing the waste of the hard
worked nerve and brain tissues, replaces
the thin, pale fluid, full of bad humors
and lacking in nutritive value.
Thousands of men and women whose
daily life is making severe draughts on
their vitality need Paine's celery COM
pound.
None are too old to be helped by it;
none are too young to be at once benefited.
1t permanently cures every kind of ner-
vous disease. 1t quickly brings new
material to the worn out nerve centers,
and removes the one cause of the many
forms that nervous diseases take Dys-
pepsia, sleeplessness, heart disease, rheu-
matism, melancholy, kidney and liver
troubles. AS a relief for the debilitating
effects of this hot season, nothing can do
| so much.
