MYSTERIES! .
The Nervous System the Seat
of Life and Mind. Recent
Wonderful Discoveries.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
ali 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-
cord will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force is
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 deranSe-
ment primarily originating in the organ it
self. The great mistake of physicians in
treating these diseases Is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers Which
are the cause Of the trouble.
DR.. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spe-
cialist, has profoundly studied this subject for
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries in connec ton with it, chief among
them being Che facts contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods Of
treatment are wrong. All headache, diZZ-
ness, dullneSS, confusion, pressure, blues,
mania. melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, st.
VituS dance, etc. are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success OF
DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine is due to the
fact that it is based on the foregoing principle.
DR.. MILES RESTORATIVE NERvINE IS sold by
all druggists on positive guarantee, or sent
direct by DR. MILES MEDICAL Co., Elkhars,
bottles for IS, express prepaid. 1t contains
neither opiates nor dangerous drugs d.

inccndiary Fire.

This morning a few minutes after mid
night, when Mr.. John j. Alverson of 2209
NJ street returned home, he found that an
incendiary had visited his house and start
ed a fire which threatened the total de-
struction of his home. Mr.. Alverson had
attended a reception at the Light Infantry
armory, and when he reached home he
found that fire had been started in two
places in the kitchen. The fire department
was called out and the firemen succeeded in
combining the flames to the rear of the
house. Fire reached the upper floors of the
house through the shaft of the dumb
waiter. The damage is estimated at about
$500,
