and have found good results from It's use. Especially in cases of sleepless- ness and nervousness has it been of benefit to some of my family.
 II have heard of many from this locality who have derived benefit from it's use. My son was in a large school when a fire started and at one time threatened to be disastrous, which ex- cited him and unsettled his nerves, and on visiting home, he used Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy with quite satisfactory results.
 "We are glad of this opportunity to recommend Dr. Greene's Nervura for others use, and give permission to pub fish this letter for the good of others. i"
 No greater proof that medicine will cure you can possibly be given than these words of an honored Judge and distinguished Senator. Take Dr. Greene's Nervura and feel again what it is to be well-to feel powerful and vigorous, to have strong, steady nerves, to. sleep soundly and wake mornings refreshed and energetic. No matter 1 how badly you may feel, Dr. Greene's Nervura will go to the root ot your disease and cure you of your troubles.
 Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy should not be clasSed,wit or dinary patent medicines; it is physi- cian's prescription, endorsed and rec commended by the most eminent doctors of our land. Its discoverer, Dr. Greene, of 35 West 14th St., New York City, is the most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, and can be consulted in all cases free of charge, personally or by letter.

Feminine Suicides,

Statistical tables yield curious in- formation to the careful student. For instance, they show that over one-third of the women who kill themselves are not yet 95 years of age. They show that women take poison, where men shoot themselves, and they show that the poor, sick and the inf1rm are not by any kind of reckoning in the majority. A physician who makes a study of at- tempted suicide said this:
 ''Get a girl past 25, and she'll go through poverty, sickness and desertion and misery enough to kill ten men. The more people suffer the moro they oling to life. I've seen it in hospitals It is not the patients with the inourable diseases or the hopeless cripples who beg to die, but the young, strong, vital woman, who hates pain and doesn't want to suffer it, even for the chance of getting we'll. It is 8 strange thing, this getting of a girl past 25, but not uncommon. Any physician with large family practice will tell you of dozen cases in his own circle of knowledge. Sometimes it is called pyromania. some- G1n0S KlepGOmaula, SOmoGImos CaCaIep- sy, sometimes hysteria, sometimes feign- ing and sometimes tantrums-it's all the same thing-nothing else to do. :" Another physician told of a girl who committed suicide and who left note stating that her reason was that she was tired of doing the samo things over and over every day. The monOtony of life had become unbearable to her. Philadelphia Times.

Dropping 8 Ball Through the Earth.

70. H.'' of East St. Louis asks the following curious question, ''If it were possible to bore hole foot or more in diameter entirely through the earth, and to then start 100 pound ball to falling through this g., 900 miles of hole, at what point would it stop?" In an- Swer to this we will say that weight, in the sense to which our correspondent Rlludes, is the measure of attraction of gravitation, or, in other words, it is the measure of force with which body is attracted to the earth. This attractive force decreases both ways from the sarth's surface. Therefore if 8 ball should be started on the tour outlined in your query it's weight would decrease to a certain extent with every yard of it's flight Cor fall), until finally, upon reaching the center of the earth it would have no weight whatever. This curious state of affairs would be brought about by the gradual lessening by the force of attraction, or gravitation, until the center of the globe would have been reached, at which point the ball would be held in suspension, as though fixed by numerous magnetic points. In other words, at the center of the earth the phenomenon of weight is entirely want ing.-St. Louis Republic.

LOON,
Lone dweller by the lonely lake.

Lone dweller by the lonely lake,
 Remote among our northern hills. Round wooded shores thy loud cries wake The sleeping echoes, Fudely break
 The singing of the rills. Thou hast the storm a welcome guest At thy home by the water's edge. The waves may plash about thy breast; May, playful, lift and rock thy nest Built on the reedy sedge. Thou art a ruler in good right
 Strong master Uf allswinds that blow. Thy wings outstrip the stormclouds quite. Thy swimming is the swallows flight Seen in the depths below. Thou sittest with sovereign grace The broken waters of the pond, And, quicker than the eye can trace, Hast shifted to another place
 A good half mile beyond. Ahl said those loud demoniac cries Borne on the startled listening air, As if from neither world did rise In agony to earth and skies
 An outburst of despar. Proud is thy mate as side by side
 Ye cleave the air with whizzing wing: Your brood that patiently abide At homo, rejoice, your forms deserted, Those wild notes heard to ring. = Isaac B. Choate in New York Home Journal.

Blind people's first experiences of sight

Blind peoples first experiences of sight | are curious. An old man in Pembroke, Ont, who was born blind, received his sight by removal of cataract. When the bandage was first removed the patient started violently and cried out as if with fear, and for awhile was quite nervous from the effects of the shock. For the first time in this life he looked upon the earth. The first thing he noticed was a flock of wild sparrOws. In relating his experience he said he thought they were teacups, although few moments after wards he readily distinguished a watch which was shown him. It is supposed that this recognition is owing to the fact that he heard it ticking. The blaze from the lamp excited the most lively surprise in his mind He had no idea what it was and when it was brought near wanted to pick it up. When the night approached upon the day when he first US his eyes he was in a fright, fearing that he was losing the sight which he had so wonder fully found after 60 years of darkness.
