distribution to children of tickets to
the Interstate Fair on what was de.
nominated "P.-I. Day" Capt. Wiley
informs us that not cent was
charged that journal for passage OF
children under IA years OF age, nor for
admission to the Fair, and it was
thought that enough adults would at.
tend to care Tor the children, who
would, of course, pay the usual price,
to make the scheme profitable in

and the Fair managers. So that en-
terprising journal receives quite an

To the Honorable the Mayor and City
Council of Olympia:
As citizens of Olympia we respect
fully ask you to reconsider the vote
whereby the right to extend the cleo.
trio street railway to Percivsl's wharf,
the depots and capitol grounds, was
refused, and to grant that right to the
Olympia Light and Power Company,
believing that such action is demanded
in the interests of our people and
city.
We submit that the improvement
will add 10 the convenience of the peo-
pie and the travelling public, and espe-
cially members and others attending
the Legislature.
That it will give work here imme-
diately to some Of our own residents.
That it will save our streets from
the wear of dragging thousands of
tons of building materials through
them and save the city the heavy ex-
pense of keeping them in repair.
And especially because Olympia
does not oppose any needed public
improvement, and does not favor any
action that would increase the cost of
building the Capitol and thus forfeit
the good will of the Legislature.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs of the body are under the con.
troll OF the nerve centerS. located In or near
the base of the brain. and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When 1t Is re-
membered that a serious Injury to the spinal
cord will cause paralysis OF the body below
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, 1t will be understood how
the arrangement OF the nerve centers will
cause the derangement OF the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
Two-thirds Of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action Of the nerve centerS at
the base Of the brain, not from o derangs-
ment primarily originating In the organ It.
self. The great mistake OF physicians in
treating these diseases Is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers which
DIR. FRANKLIN MILES. the celebrated spe-
cialist. has profoundly studied this subject Tor
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries In connection with IL, chief among
them being the facts contained In the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods of
treatment are wrong. All headache, diz1i-
ness. dullnesS. confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy. insanity. epilepsy, St.
Vftus dance. etc., are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success Of

Iucivility OF American Servants.

Said an English woman to the
writer: "Your society women are
charming, your men are refreshingly
different from those l meet in my
set on the other side OF the water,
but your servants, most Of them at
least, are simply uDspeakable. Don't
think me guilty OF British egotism IL
/ say that the only decent servants l
have seen since my stay here are
those who apparently were not
trained In American households.
Personally, l think that the bad con-
duct OF a servant Is as much a reflec-
ton on the mistress OF a house AS is
the bad behavior Of her children.
The servant who closes the door in a
visitors face, or leaves him or her
standing n the hallway during the
presentation OF a card, or who fails
TO use a respectful title when ad-
dressing the caller, or who Is imper-
tinent or careless, who has .tousled
hair, or calls her mistress she / say
such a servant may be forgiven on
the strength Of his or her ignorance
Of the amenities Of society. But as
for the matron who permits these
things, why, she is either unaccus-
toned TO have servants about her or
she cannot teach them the ordinary
p~oliteness that she herself lacks" -
