Jimmy James, the weil-known sporting
man. does not believe Governor O'Ferrall can
stop bookmaking at the st. Asaph track, and
bases his belief on the context of the bill
passed by the Virginia legislature, just ad-
journed Il have copy of this bill" he
said, land it permits bookmaking on any
chartered track in the state. and its language
is so plain that any one can understand its
meaning. The st. Asaph track is chartered
by the Assembly and comes within the re-
quirements OF the law. The Governor may
rake up some old act. but he will probably
find that the new bill will repeal any ancient
measure. / have no interest in St. Asaphs
track. but simply give my opinion, and. TO
speak plainly, doubt if Governor O'Ferrall
has really said he has authority TO break up
bookmaking at Hills track, as has been re-

Billy Joyce does not appear to have lost any
of his skill as a ball player through his lay
ing-off of last year. as he is playing gilt-edge
ball with the Washington Kids. 1t was in the
Brotherhood year that Joyce came to the
front as a member of Wards Brooklyn Won
ders, and he subsequently played third base
for the Boston Association team. He after
wards returned to Brooklyn, and at the be-
ginning of last season his services were
claimed by Washington. There was differ
ence between the player and the Wagners on
the question of salary, ami Joyce preferred
remaining idle the entire year rather than ac-
cept the terms offered. He put in good
part of the time playing the races, and ac-
cording to his own words kept ahead OF the
game, but he admits that Il man must keep
his mind on his number to break even with
the books.

Youthful Loafers:-Many of us now
for young men and young women eigh-
teen years of age and upward, to regu
larly attend the winter district school in
the neighborhOod where they resided.
This was beneficial in two ways: first,
1t afforded profitable employment for
those who otherwise would have been
idle five months in the year; and second,
1t applied the school, as imperfect as it
was, to the young at an age when life
opens into consciousness that educa-
ton is superior to ignorance, that very
much remains for us to learn, and there
fore it is the best time to go to school,
because our awakened minds are in the
best condition to receive instruction.
But now there is a change in these
things, not because of better facilities
for the higher education of our children,
or that our young men and young wom-
en- are in the High" school and acad-
envy; but because the boys and girls, in
too many cases, have graduated and
completed their education before fifteen
years of age. And so it happens that
MANY of this class, who work abroad dur
ing the summer season, return home for
the winter, not for school purposes, but
to enjoy a season of idleness, devoted to
loafing in bar rooms, stores, or other

a fine thing as regards fire protection.
The closing exercises of the district

You who are sick and suffering Just
remember this: DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy is the medicine
that cures, and it is exactly what you
want. There are countless numbers of
persons in just this condition. They are
not sick with any particular disease, but
are out of order, have weak nerves and
tired bodies. They have lost their snap
and energy, and work becomes an effort.
You need DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. 1t will cure you. 1t
is purely vegetable and harmless, and is
the discovery of DR.. Greene, "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, the most success
full specialist in curing nervous and
chronic disease. He can be consulted
free, personally or by letter.

equally undesirable resorts that are open
to their company. Now, this sufficient
ly explains our meaning, and it surprises
us that parents will be Indifferent to
these things which so much concern the
future OF their sons and daughters.
These winter evenings are long, and pro-
vide opportunity for profitable reading
and study at home. Some of our great
est men declare that their success is
largely due to the manner in which they
improved their winter evenings when
they were boys and young men at home,
fitting themselves for the stations they
afterwards filled in so distinguished a
manner. But what kind of men will
these youthful lOafers" make, who thus
pass the winter evenings of their youth
at the ''store" or bar room, or other un-
suitable ''resort?" By all means, young
man or boy, go to school, and spend
your winter evenings at home! Now
we love boys, and nothing gives us
greater uneasiness than to see youth
who thus neglects his opportunities and
gives himself away to idleness and waste
There is nothing better in this world,
nothing that affords more satisfaction in
living, than an inward sense of manly
enlargement. This will never come to
the loafer. He who Possesses this will
never be idle, for in his leisure moments
he will do his best work; improve him
self. The spirit of such growth must
be instiled into the youth when the best
conditions for its nurture should be sup
piled with careful discrimination. All
of our ideals should contemplate an eter-
nal fruition. And among us sinners
this growth will manifest its greatest &C
tivity when our lives cast off all that is
vile and filthy in our living.

Thousands of people feel this way
Their nerves are weak and irritable, they

They feel nervous, blue and discouraged,

They feel they have lost their nerve
power and much of their energy and
ambition. They often declare themselves
as feeling just good for nothing" This
