Health and Strength Are
 Within Your Grasp.
pr. Greene's NerVura Makes
 You Strong and We'll.
It Is The Great Restorative of Brains
 and Nerves.

Oh, those nerves of ours, how they do bother us Weak, tired and nerv- ous is the complaint everywhere. We overwork, dlssipate, weaken our bod ies, ruin our health, and finally break down. Sleeplessness and indigestion are early symptoms, for the nerves are too exhausted and irritable to permit rest and the stomach too weak to di- gest food.
 It is nerve and brain exhaustion which makes the brain tired, and the arm nerveless, the limbs trembling the muscles weak and the whole body without strength, energy or ampatlon' If is loss of nerve and vital power which is slowly but surely sapping the very life itself, and unless help IS sought from the right source, the end twill he shattered nerves, insanity, with softening of the brain, nervous pros tration, heart failure, paralysis or pre- mature death.
 Beware of such symptoms A well known druggist, Charles W. Eggleston' esq. 329 Park avenue, Worcester Mass, suffered from nervous prostration ana all it's terrible symptoms. He writes the following letter telling what ne knows Is the best way to get well.
 "Some time ago I was taken with nervous prostration; I suffered terribly with my nerves and could get no sleep at all. I became fearfully exhausted, my stomach was in a terrible condi- tion from dyspepsia, and l could eat hardly anything.
 'T used several medicines, but with out benefit. Being in the drug busi- ness myself, and having had many customers speak in the highest terms of pr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, I determined to try It. After taking only one-half bottle be- gan to feel much better.
 q slept soundly at night, and my appetite was splendid. After taking three bottles ate three square meals a day, and had not the slightest dis tress. My nerves were perfectly strong, and felt like new man. be- Ing completely cured of all my troubles
 "Out of the respect I bear the manu- facturers of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and my desire to have the sick and suffering made well and strong, I heartily recommend it to people who are sick. I most certainly recommend it to people who are the same as I was. nervous and inclined toward dyspepsia and indigestion, and suffering from not being able to sleer well at night"
 As this letter is from a dealer in medicine, his word is authority on such matters. Everybody knows that Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is the great leading medicine of the age. Take it and you will be made strong, healthy and vigorous Doctors recommend 1t because it is the prescription of physician, and be cause they know 1t cures.
 Dr. Greene, the most successful spe- cia1ist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, discovered it. He can be con. suited free, personally or by letter, al his office, 35 West 14th street, New York City,

Assertions to the Sister of the MUIR
dered Catherine Cling.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, January 16.-The
state sprang a little surprise on Harry
Hayward, accused of the murder of Cath
crime Cling, when Miss Julia Cling of Au-
burn N Y, twin sister of the murdered
woman and almost exactly like her in APP
pearance, was suddenly and without warn
ing ushered into Hayward's cell at the
county Jail. The states attorneys We're
counting on the effect the sudden apparl-
ton of the murdered woman's double
might have on the supposed murderer
But they were greatly disappointed. Hay,
wards magnificent nerve never deserted
him for an instant The sisters eyes 1alr-
~ blazed as they rested on Hayward, and
to an impressiorable culprit might well
have looked like an avenging Nemesis come
back to earth.
ing slightly he said: From appearances
l should say this was Miss julia Cling. Is
this not Miss Ging?"
Miss Cling made no reply, but nod OF
affirmation, and Hayward went on rapidly:
Il am very glad to meet you, Miss Cling
The circumstances are peculiar and very
unfortunate but l am sure that II could
have a long talk with you could con-
vince you of my innocence in this murder
If l had seen you on the street should
hardly have known you from Kit. Inc
resemblance is remarkable.
Miss Cling still maintained silence, and
Hayward mad to till in the gap.
You cannCt think that l murdered your
sister, he said.
Miss Cling in a low voice, but steady and
full of feeling, remarked: Il don't care to
make any assertion on that point.
Hayward went on detailing the business
relations he had with Catherine Cling, and
winding up by exclaiming again that 1t
was impossible that any one could believe
him connected with the murder who knew
all the facts.
"A great many important things haven't
been brought out" he added. If l could
have a long talk with you, either here or
somewhere else, 1 know l could convince
you of my innocence. Time Will tell. Do
you think 1 am guilty. he asked again.
addressing Miss Cling.
LAS you say, time will tell, was the
answer.
The interview lasted ten minutes, Hay
ward doing all the talking.
Miss Cling Will attend the trial, which be-
gins next week. She has not yet seen

ENFORCING A LAW.
This One Relates to Swinging Signs
in the Street.

IN the street,
For some time past the Commissioners
have been quietly looking into the case Of
the prosecuting attorney Of the Police
Court, who was charged by Lieut. Amiss
with refusing a warrant for the arrest OF
certain individuals who were violating the
building regulations in maintaining swing
ing signs across the sidewalks. 1t seems
that Private McCort tried to make a case
against Henry Bush, J. Frank johnson and
Thomas Walsh for the above mentioned
violation. When he applied for warrant
it was refused, the prosecuting attorney
saving according to the officer: If there
was no complaint about them 1t was all
right because this regulation was being
violated all over the city,. The matter
was brought to tho attention of Lieut..
Amiss and referred by him to the Commits
sicners. The latter sent the papers to the
prosecuting attorney for report, and he
said: THAT although the order was Issued
on December II, not a single application
for warrant was made, although hundreds
of signs are hung in violation OF law. He
called attention to the fact that Judge
Kimball had remarked from the bench that
he would not hold one or two isolated cases
when in such cases the evidence Is that the
next door neghbor violates the law: The
prosecuting attorney stated further that he
cautioned the officers and stated to them
the position of the court, saying 1t was use
less to bring this or that man in unless
there was some general effort made to
compel every body to comply with the law.
He denies that he said he would not issue
a warrant unless upon complaint. He CALI
ed attention to the fact that in the very
block where the two signs complained Of
are hung there are others hung out very
much lower Concluding, he said:
Il want the parties held where it is
shown that the law has been violated, but
in order to do this Judge kimball must be
satisfied that all, at least showing
made that more than two or three cases
will be made and the ordinance enforced
Col. Truesdell yesterday acted upon the pa
pers and made the following Endorsement
thereon:
Il suggest that The papers in this case
he returned to the major and superintend-
emit of police, and his attention be invited
TO the report of AIR. Pugh; that in compli-
ance with the suggestions of Mr.. Pugh, the
officers of the metropolitan police force be
instructed to enforce the law against every
offender without delay" The last indorse-
ment upon the papers came from Maj.
Moore who after quoting the amendment
of the Police Regulations under which the
charges are to be brought, says:
LAS it is held no penalty prescribed for
the violation can be enforced until thirty
DAYS after it's publication, this amended
section only became operative yesterday,
the 18th instant"
