What an Expert Says of Insomnia.

Sir James Crichton Browne, the cx- pert on brain diseases, holds that in- somnia is not attended with such dis astrous consequences as is commonly supposed. It is not as dangerous as the solicitude of the sufferer He sug- gests that the brains of literary men, who are the most frequent victims, ac- quire the trick of the heart, which takes a doze of fraction of second after each beat, and so manages to get cases of insomnia, sleep in sections, different brain sections going off duty

MEXICO RAILROADS.
The Government Encourages the De-
 velopment and Completion.

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 1O.-Senora Guadalupe Santa Ana de Castro, daughter of President Santa Ana, who led the Mexican armies in war with the United States. is dead in this city.
 Complaint ie made that Chinese im- migration on the west coast is introdu- cing leprosy and it is also etated that Chinamen are marryng the women of the lower classes.
 Mormon colonies are prospecting owing to frugal and energetic manage. ment.
 Railway construction in various parts of the republic is actively going oD, and imports of Englieh railway material, principally steel rails. are increasing.
 The policy of the government is now directed to the development and com pletion in the most essential parts of the present railway system, the greatest lack of facilities being in southern Mexico and along the west coast of the repu blic. The government is granting concessions for railways allows portions not subventioned rates which fully compensate in the opinion of railway men the profit to be derived from the subsidies. The most profitable railway in the country today is the Mexican Northern, operating in the Sierra Mohava mining region, which has no subvention, but is allowed to charge high rates, having no competition, and is doing an excellent business.
 Presentations are being made to the government by the chambers of con- merce of the cities of the west coast, stating that the en tire section south is lacking in transportation facilities, and praying that measures be taken to sup. ply the want and give life and impetus to the rich. undeveloped country.

Michael Cannon, a Blacksmith, Found
 Dead in His Room.

Sunday afternoon two men observed the prostrate form of a man lying in the doorway at the foot of the stairs in the McNamara house, corner of Washington and Second streets. The man was not dead, but his face was purple and he was breathing stentori- ously. He was in a delirious condi- ton and he was taken up stairs and a physician sent for. He recovered later in the day and said that he was passing the doorway and feeling faint entered, but fell to the floor in a swoon.

Neat Packages for Butter.

When packing butter, learn what sort of a package suits the customers best and give it to them as desired. A square brick or print is always suita ble and neat and tidy in appearance. Bricks or prints are made by printers of the form desired and will weigh up butter to very near the desired weight. It is wrapped in parchment paper, making the butter attractive and of uniform size. The parchment may be printed with the name of the farm. dairy or creamery on it. Parchment preserves the butter in every respect and the air is excluded. The pound package is just the size required by city customers. Anyone would pay more for neat pound print than for butter put up from tub with a mangled appearance. Farm and Home.

PAID ONE Al A TIME.
Pennies Not Legal Tender in Amounts or
 More Than Twenty-Five Cents.

More Than Twenty-Five Cents.
 There is postmaster in little town not far distant. who is noted for the amount of authority he is inclined to show in trivialsmatters. A short time ago, says theSAfount Morris (Mich.) Union, business man of the place ap- peared before tie stamp window of the office and demanded 300 one-cent stamps. for which he laid down an equal number of pennies. Here was good chance for the authoritative gentleman, and with view of teaching his impor- tance, he picked 25 pennies from the heap. handed out 25 stamps and showed the rest of the money to the would-be buyer with the remark that pennies were not legal tender there in amounts of more than 25 cents.
 EXpostulation was in vain, the post master cited the law in the case and that seemed to settle it. With a malicious gleam in his eye the buyer swept the re- maining pennies into his pocket and mildly inquired: T suppose 1 can get one-cent stamp here for penny, can't I?" "Certainly,' s...u the man at the window. 'Then give me a one-cent stamp" said the other laying down the money. It was hanued to him, and he demanded another and another after that. Several people had come in in the meantime, and We're impatiently wait ing their turn at the window, but the obdurate buyer cpo on gravely buying one-cent stamps Gn the installment plan. Seeing determination in the face of the other, the postmaster offered to arbitrate, but it was of no avail. He continued to buy as long as his money lasted, and triumphantly departed amidst the approving smiles of the crowd.

Pure Food and DrInk

Americans stop drinking col ored tea, and spend all their tea-money for pure tea, and if there are other pure Japan teas than SeAlllang's Best, we shall sell enough ScAlNlng's Best to pay for our advertising many times over.
 But if there is no other ul- colored Japan tea sold in the United States (and we know of none), we shall sell more tea than any one con- cern in the world ever sold before.
 There is no better or more honorable way to prosper than by selling good merchandise.
