Nagging is disease, says an eminent
physician in the last North American Re-
view. "It is often," says DR.. Edison, "the
result of a diseased condition or of strains
on the strength"
1t is the nervous men and women who
most readily fall into that unfortunate
class, and anything that does away with
nervous weakness will cure the depression,
irritability and the nagging habit that SO
often accompanies rundown nervous
condition.
Persons who lead an active life need
something to invigorate their nerves and
to give them fresh, ruddy blood. 1t is the
rebellious nerves overtaxed by domestic
duties, added to the constant living in the
vitiated atmosphere of indoors that re-
duces the nervous strength of so many
women.
Prof. Edward E. Phelps, Md, LID,
presented to his profession the results of
accurate investigations in the medical
laboratory. His formula for recruiting
worn-out nervous tissues and building up
the nerve centers when exhausted, this re-
markable formula now known the world

tioner and family physician.
breakdown and nervous prostration
come" say these physicians, "unless the
great nerve centers are promptly fed upon
proper nutritive material"
Paine's celery compound is the one great
nerve-feeder and nerve restorative. BY its
means all the functions of the body receive
fresh supply of nerve food. 1t en-
courages the body to manufacture an
abundant supply of this indispensable
vital force, without which there can be no
health, strength nor happiness in living
From the lack of nerve force men and
women are driven to dependency, melan-
cholia, insanity and suicide.
Thousands of letters like the following
from Mrs. Lizzie Arnott of Mansfield,
Ohio, are received by the proprietors of
Paines celery compound every month in
the year:
81 have used two bottles of .Paine's cell
cry compound for nervousness and have
found great relief from It's use. 1t is truly
wonderful remedy. / am better and am

manner in which several firms have at
tempted to do the same thing. Beardsley
gave me an address on Ninth street. and
said that his store was there and that he
had right to sell and deliver in this city
without license. | went to the store and
found that it was the Office of the express
company who brought all the goods from
San Francisco. There was not store
there, nor anything that could possibly be
called store. l told Beardsley of what l
had found and he took me to little shed,
and in it were few sacks of -four and some
potatoes. This, he said, was his store. 1
asked him if | could buy all kinds of gro-
ceries there, and ne said 70, but said he
was prepared to supply everything. Of
course, it was simply subterfuge.'
The Merchants Exchange is giving Mr..
Mitchell its moral support and it is said
that they will employ special counsel to
aid the Prosecuting Attorney.
1t is one OF the economical projects of
the City Council to abolish the office of
License Inspector and to put that duty on
the police force, but the merchants are
strongly opposed to it and prepared to
argue before the Council that the Office is
an important one and should not be dis
turbed, or such cases as the one against
Beardsley, which concerns their interests,
would never be heard of.

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,)
9OS Broadway, Oct. Is.
License Collector Mitchell, backed by
the Merchants Exchange of Oakland, has
started campaign against the numerous
San francisco merchants who do a retail
business in this city without having either
a store or license.
For several years efforts have been made
to confine the trade of this city to mer-
chants whose place of business is here but
with Indifferent success on account of the
numerous subterfuges resorted to. After
much work the Merchants Exchange was
successful In getting an ordinance passed
fixing the license for outside firms deliv-
ering goods at $3.50 per quarter. It was
thought that this would break up the
business of the San Francisco merchants,
but it did not, for several firms entered
the Oakland field and opened large re-
tail stores here. This plan was very favor
able to all, as the newcomers employed
local help and became bona tide portion
OF the business community. Others con-
tlnued to I'LL orders from the San Francis
co stores, and it is these that Oakland mer-
chants are now trying to bring into the
fold.
An agent named E. Beardsley, who
represents one of the largest firms of San
Francisco grocers, will be tried in the
Police Court next Tuesday for violating
the ordinance. Beardsley receives, it is
said, fully $4,000 worth of goods every
month from his principals in San Fran
cisco and delivers them in this city. He
has no license and no store. The inspector
says he has a very strong case against
Beardsley.

firm tried to evade the ordinance" said

Little Effie Cameron running away from

of II anxious to get on the stage. 1t is
but the escapade of a little miss not yet 15,
and were it not for the fact that she is the
child of well-to-do parents the incident
would not create any interest in this city,

The story published to-day that the girl

Before leaving home the girl wrote note

TUG HERCULES L|BELEO.
RECEIVED SEALSKINS FROM THE
WINCHESTER OUTSIDE
THIS PORT.
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY FooTE
ASKS THAT THE VESSEL BE
CONFISCATED.

United States Attorney Foote filed a libel
in the United States District Court against
the tug Hercules of the Mercants Tow
boat Association yesterday for violating
the United States Custom-house laws.
The complaint recites that on January
9 last, while off the Farallones under the
command of Captain t. c. Lockyer, the
Hercules met the sealing schooner Win
chester, and while within the Jurisdiction
of the United States transferred 174 seal
skins from the schooner to herself and
landed them in this port. The complaint
also recites that the transfer was not occa-
stoned by any unavoidable accident or ne
cessity or by stress of weather.
The libel asks the court to order the
vessel, her tackle, ETC., confscated to the
Government in accordance with the Gus
tom-house regulations.
Judge Foote said in reference to the
matter that the captain of the Hercules
had clearly violated the law in taking the
skins onto his vessel under the existing
circumstances. Had the Winchester been
in distress or danger it would have been
lawful to bring the skins in to save them
from probab loss, but not otherwise.
A section of the regulation says that
after getting into waters under the juris-
diction of the United States goods must
not be transferred from one vessel to
another to be brought into an American
port unless some accident makes the
transfer necessary.
ut seems TO me-" said Judge Foote,
that the skins were transferred to avoid
seizure, as the remainder of the schooners
cargo was taken into custody by the
Custom-house. The matter should GER
tainly have been reported to the Custom
house, and l think we can hold the tug
for the violation of the law

SAYS HE WAS SWINDLED,
Sam Loverich Charged With Playing
the Crush Act" on an
TnnOCent

Arthur Greenberg has charged Sam
Loverich with bunkoing him out of $50,
and he has asked the Justices Court to
lock up Loverlch till the money is re-
turned.
According to his story. Loverich has
been ostensibly engaged in the advertising
business, but really engaged in advertising
his wonderful resources, known onlv to
himself, and in endeavoring to create the
impression of his vast wealth in the minds
of others.
With this idea in view, so Greenberg
says, Loverich swindled him last Nav by
what is commonly known as the rush
act" That is, Loverich rushed up to Green
berg in great haste and excitement and
showed him pretended ord er for $50 on
Root & Robinson signed by himself. At
the same time he hourished a check paw
able to himself for several thousand dol
lars.
"Cash this $50 order" he said to Green
berg, land I'll come back later in the day
when I've cashed my check and repay
you. Of course you'll make a handsome
profit on the business"
Greenberg gave him $50, took the order
and of course he has it yet. Loverich
hasn't m ade the first sign of redeeming it.
Greenberg has asked the court to declare
LoveIich guilty of fraud, and to imprison
him till the $50 Judgment is paid.

Students Football.
The mu ch-talked-of football contest
men has not yet been n definitely arranged
for, but it is generally understood in foot

that favorable conclusion will be arrived
at very soon between the managers of the
two teams. The bone of contention which
has prevented speedy consummation of
the plan for the accustomed game seems
to be that Stanford wishes to draw the line
at permitting men from the Affiliated Col
leges to ill positions on Berkeley's team,
contrary to last years precedent.
A meeting was held last evening be-
tween Manager Long and Coach Butter
worth OF Berkeley and Manager Eaton and
Professor Angel of Stanford for the pur-
pose OF discussing the game question, but
on account OF not having certain previous
football contract on hand no conclusion
was reached. They all were very reticent
about conveying information relating to
the conference, but Manager Long to-day

probability. yet come off,
