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, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centerS Will
cause the arrangement 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 derange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it.
self. The great mistak Ike OF physicians IN
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centerS which
are the cause OF the trouble.
DIR. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spe-
cialist has profoundly studied this subject for
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, dizzt-
ness, dullneSs confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, st.

MARROW ESCAPE.
e. A. BaiIsy's Team Of Winthrop Creates 4
Great Deal Of Excitement.

- There was a very narrow escape from
serious accident, last evening, when the
team Of +. A. Bailey Of Winthrop ran
away. Mr.. Bailey and his cousin. E. M.
Jones, had driven to the city, yesterday,
with fine span of horses, and twoseated
covered carriage, and waited for the 7.l5
train to take back two ladies who came in
on that train.
The team was standing in front of the
platform in charge of Mr.. Jones, the ladies
occupying the back seats, while Mr.. Bailey
was down to Mr.. Partridges drug store.
The engine came putting along, and one of
the horses being frightened by it made a
sudden leap and broke its whiffle-tree, and
this started the other. All was done like
tightening, and the team whirled around
and started at break-neek speed. 1t had
gone but short distance when the carriage
upset, breaking the top somewhat and
dumping the occupants out, the horses
clearing It. 1t was a marvellous escape fol
those in the carrisge, and had not the rig
ging given away the story might have been
much longer and more terrible.
When the horses got loose they seemed
filled with madness and swung around the
end of the station house and ran up on the
platform, nearly running over Mr.. Smith
register of deeds, and another man. They
then dashed down the row of steps of the
platform and luckily were caught. - The
entire outfit was taken to Cony's stable
slight repairs made, and the same team
throughout was used to convey the fortu
nate people home. The ladies were Mis-

and Miss Bigelow Of Winthrop.
