the people that owe my present good
state of health entirely to DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy. After
so many years of suffering it has complete
ly cured me, and would advise all afflicted
as l was to give this splendid medicine
trial. | will freely answer all letters of
inquiry"
That Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy will cure rheumatism,
neuralgia and kidney complaints, is be
yond question. 1t has been proved again
and again, and is always successful.
Prominent people, as well as those in the
humber walks of life, are continually
testifying to the remarkable value of this
medicine; to such an extent, indeed, that
physicians, druggists and the people
everywhere have come to recognize DIR.
Grecne's Nervura blood and nerve remedy,
as an absolute specific for these diseases
the remedy that can always be depended
upon to cure. The spring is the very best
time to cure these affections and this
remedy should be taken now.
Wherever these diseases exist, this grand
medicine should be used at once. 1t is
purely vegetable and harmless, and what
gives it greater value and the people
greater confidence in it, is the fact that
it is the prescription and discovery of a
well known physician, the successful
specialist in nervous and chronic dis
eases, DR.. Greene of 81 Temple Place,
Boston, Mass, who can be consulted free,
personally or by letter

A Wonderful Telescope Lens.

Astronomers have hitherto held fast to
the dogma that the objective lens of tele-
scope must consist of one piece. Mr.. L.
Gathmann of Chicago has, however, built
az inch telescope, the object lens of which
consists of seven largo circular pieces
of glass, one III tho center and six ar
ranged in a circle about it, and six small
or disks at tho outer angles. These pieces,
together with the intervening Opaque sub
stance, are of course so ground on the sur
face as to form one complete lens and the
transparent segments, therefore, all focus
at one point.
Many astronomers who have inspected
it have marvced at tho distinctness with
which it magnifics the heavenly bodies
Tho great gain comes from the better
quality of glass that is used. A every
body knows, the limit has now been
reached in the casting of mass of glass
for telescope lenses, because, the surface
cooling and solidifying first, bubbles or
other imperfections remain in the interior.
This difficulty is removed by selecting
small portions of perfect glass and build
ing up the lens by segments on the Gath
mann plan. The use of lead TO strengthen
or tougher the glass in large lenses is also
obyiated, and n much more transparent
quality of glass is thus obtained.
Tho advantage to the world in the as
Economical advances that are hereby
opened up is incalculable, according to
The Industrial World. authority for tho
facts stated Great economy in manufac-
turc is secured, for the old lens that cost
$50, 900 can be displaced by the new at an
expense of only SO, 600 But the greatest
advantage of all perhaps is that much
more powerful instruments can be con
structed. Up to diameter of % to 80
feet lens on the new plan could be con
structed with no greater impediments from
faulty glass than at present with SO
inch lens

BROOKLYN LEGAL CASES.
President Norton Denies Violating 10-Hours
Law-PoIice Justices Trials.

Brooklyn, n. Y, Feb. 1S.-President
Norton and Supt. Quinn of the Atlantcica
Railroad Co. pleaded not guilty, this
morning, in the court of general sessions,
to the charge of violating the 10-hour law.
The alleged violation occurred Jan. II,
two days before the strike began. Counsel
for the company asked permission to in
spect the minutes of the grand jury to
ascertain upon what evidence the indict-
ments were found. The court reserved its
decision upon that point.
Police Justices Watson and Quigley OF
Brooklyn, appeared in the general term Ct
the supreme court, this morning, to sho"
cause why they should not be removed
from office on complaint of Mayo
Schieren. Counsel for the accused justices
tried to have the petitions dismissed on
the ground that they did not contain FAC
sufficient to Justify the court in taking
testimony, but were denied. The case OF
| Justice Quigley went over until March !,
and that of Justice Watson was put IT
! the foot of the calendar.

PLAYING ALTA BRossE.

1t, which French and German youngsters
as it is called, the players form circle

inside the ring) humming brosse, brosse. :"
II some one plays few notes on the piano,
it helps the fun. The minute the music
stops tho one who holds the brush must
suddenly brush his neighbours dress, so
as to be well heard, and then pass the
brush on before the searcher can determine
where the sound comes from or on whom
to pounce If the brush has passed some
distance around, a daring player may even
brush the searchcr's own back and send
the brush safely onward again. One hand
must remain always on the cord, though
it may be changed if necessary, and the
brush may even be thrown to any other
player on the watch for it. But this must
be done only in case of deadly peril, as the
watcher has the chance of catching it as
it flies or of seeing who does get it just
after it has brushed somebody.
When the game is properly played-and
there are many players round the ring
that one in whose possession the brush is
found becomes searcher, and the last
searcher goes out OF the game, the cord
being shortened each time by tying knot
