Health and Strength are Within Your
Grasp.
DIR. Greene's Nepvura Makes You
Strong and Well.
1t Is the Great Restorative Of Brains
and Nerves.

Oil those nerves OF ours, how they do
bother usl Weak, tired and nervous is the
complaint everywhere. We overworB,
dissipate weaken our bodies, ruin our
health, and finally break down. Sleep
lessness and indigestion are early symp
toms, for the nerves are too exhausted
and irritable to permit rest, and the
stomach too weak to digest food.
1t is nerve and brain exhaustion which
makes the brain tired, and the arm
nerveless, the lin BIS trembling. the mus
Giles weak and the whole body without
strength, energy or ambition. 1t is loss
of nerve and vital power which is slowy
but surely sapping the very life itself,
and unless help Is sought from the right
source, the end will be shattered nerves,
insanity, with softening of the brain,
nervous prostration, heart failure, paraIy-
sis or premature death.
Beware of such symptomsl A we'll

Esq, 329 Park Avenue, Worcester, Mass.
suffered from nervous prostratlon and
all it's terri BILE symptoms.
He writes the following letter telling
what he knows is the best way to get
well.
aSone time ago / was taken with nerv-
my nerves and could get no sleep at all.
I became fearfuily exhausted, my stom-
ach was in a terri bic condition from dys-
pepsia, and could eat hardly anything.
Il used several medicines but without
benefit. Being in the drug business my
self, and having had many customers
speak in the highest terms OF DIR.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy,
l determined to try it. After taking
only one half bottle I began to feel much
better.
81 slept soundly at nights and my ap-
petite was splendid. After taking three
bottles, I ate three square meals day,
and had not the slightest distress. My
nerves were perfectly strong, and felt
like a new man, being completely cured
OF all my trou bles.
"Out of the respect I bear the manu-
factarers of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, and my desire to have
the sick and suffering made well and
strong, / heartily recommend it to peo.
pie who are sick. l most certainly
recommend it to people who are
the same as was, nervous
and inclined toward dyspepsia and in
digestion, and suffering from not being
able to sleep well at night"
AS this letter is from dealer in medi-
cine, his word is authority on such mat
ters Every body 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 it
because it is the prescription of physi-
clan, and because they know it cures.

ialist in curing nervous and chronic dis

THE CHILDREN's WARD.
A Society to Be Formed to Build Nurses

chu, Oh yesterday morning Rev. DR..
jenkins made an earnest and effective
appeal to his congregation in aid of the
Children's Wsrd of the Maine General

operetta of Pistol is to be given at Kotz-

Jenkins said that the contribution taken
at--State street church Christmas Day

THE COMING ENcAMP MeNr
The Grand Army and the ReI;ees VIII
Meet at the Same Time.

Thursday, A. M. Sawyer, adiutant
general of the department of Maine G..
A. r., will go to Bangor to copsnlt with
the members of the two local posts re-
garding the coming annual encamnment
of the Grand Army, an event soma time
ahead, but for which ample provisions
will have to be made as there is likely to
be a big turnout of the veterans, and
then for the first time the encapm ment
and the national and state relief assooia-
tions will meet in the same CITY. tho
same day, and it Is probable that AFT least
nine hundred comrades and the ladies of
the two relief associations will De present.
But then we know what Bangor can do
when it comes to taking care Of a
crowd" said a veteran yesterday.
The date of the encampment has not
yet been settled, and the fixing of the
exact time within certain limits will rest
with the oommander-in-e chief, who will
be present, but who will so arrange his
visit as to also meet with the comrades of
other New England States at their
annual enoampments. Mr.. Sawyer has
sent two letters to the commander-in-
chief, and expects an immediate reply.
There will be many questions of
interest to come before the enoampInent
aside from the election of q department
commander. The proposed home for aged
and poor soldiers and their wives is not
yet by any means settled thing, and
some leading Grand Army men are under
stood TO hold that the home should be
owned by the state of Maine, and not by
the Grand Army represented by few of
it's members as an incorporated body.
They say that if the state should build a
such home, or should own it after it
was built, the national government
would pay 500 a year for every soldier SO
assisted. There is much interest felt in
the main features of the plan as it is felt
that it is hard to part husband and wife
as must be the case when the married
soldier goes to Togus.
At one time there was system adopted
at Togus allowing the married ex-soldier
to live in little houses outside tina
grounds, drawing their rations and
having he right to buy their other pro-
vision from the government at slight
advance over the cost. This was stopped
to this degree, Those who were outside
and who had in this way made little
homes for themselves were not molested,
but when one dropped = out no other
married ex-soldier was allowed to take
his place. and the number of persons of
this class has become greatly reduced,
and in a short time the system will dis
appear entirely.

GO SLOW.
Rev. Mr.. Woodward Counseis Caution and
Peace

AT the Second Advent church yesterday
afternoon, the pastor, Rev. Mr.. Wood
ward, expressed his opinion in regard
to the possibility and result of war with
Great Britain. He spoke earnestly OF the
urgent need at this time for every preach
or to proclaim from his pulpit every pos
sible argument for peace.
lie referred to the war excitement
throughout the north before the Rebel
lion and the general belief that there
would be no war. 1t won't do to say to-
day that there will be no war. We must
look the question in the face.
He reviewed briefly the Venezuelan
controversy and its results. Whether the
Monroe doctrine applies to this case or
not is a serious question. There is grave
peril in the future Although President
Cleveland has been very conservative,
it is stated that he allowed foreign ooun-
tries to snub the United States. This ac-
tion in regard to Venezuela is surprise
to the whole country. Another surprise
is the unanimity of Congress in support
ing the President. Usually the northern
men are very slow to fight But in this
case the eold-b FLOODED north is ablaz-
with the war fever. All this has the ap-
pearance of a craze, a panic, such as that
which prevailed in the south and which
cost 500. 600 lives.
HfLet us go Glow before we allow this
panic to grow. Popular panics are dan
gerous
There is good ground for the suspicion
that the whole thing is tinged with a
political coloring. Somebody is trying
to make something out of this. 1t start
publicans didn It dare to stop it for fear
they WON'T get half the profits
There are several reasons why we are in
great danger. The first reason is the
haste that has cha1acterizned all action
in this matter. The second is the honor
Of the nation that people believe to be in
volved. The third danger is partly one of
the most dangerous of all. The fourth
is ignorance. We don't know what we
are doing. If the south had not been ig-
norant OF the facts they wouldn't have
been SO eager to fight. They didn' know
the north's resources. They didn't stop
to count the cost.
Ii we'd just count the cost. this war
would stop tomorrow.
Mr.. Woodward proceeded to elaborate
his point, contending that England was
too strong for us, that she was our SUI
perior in military and naval strength,
also in craftsmanship and diplomacy. He
did not want to be considered an
Anglophite, however. for England had
been guilty of good many things that he
did not approve of.
