Effort.

There are numerous people who do not
call themselves sick. and yet who feel
weak, nervous, languid or tired; they have
lost their vim. power of endurance and am
hilton to work. They feel miserable, not
because they are actually sick, but because
they are not well.
People complain that they are weak ner-
vous. tired and exhausted; that they nave
a poor or variable appetite, no strength
no nerve; they become irritable, cross
blue and discouraged. In some cases there
are pains and aches in various parts Of the
body. and there is often Indigestion, dys-
pepsia4 belching Of wind. dull, cloudy head
and general dispirited feeling. Sleepless,
restless, wakeful nights follow. The
brain tires easily and there may be ten
dency to drows!ness during the day. Ne
glect of these symptoms results in excess
i've nervous prostration or paralysis, with
numbness, trembling, cold feet and legs,
prickling sensation and weakness and

The Danse Macabre, one Of the most

weird. grotesQue and ait times almost
hideous, growing steadily in speed and
impeuous power, its forward move

FIFTY Head OF Horses.
Waldron, the great Canadian horse shipper,
will arrive at O'Ham's livery with fifty head
Of horses They have made arrangements to
accommodate him in the near future so he
can stable that number Waldrou's name is
familiar with those who buy horses, and it is
acknowledged by all that he conducts the
squarest auction ever held in this section Of
the country, when he has sale. Every
horse goes no matter what the bid is, and
now that the people have confidence in his
auctions they wait, for they all know that
they can buy cheaper from him than from
any one else Some dealers will acknowledge
that he sells horses cheaper than they can
buy them in the West, and they say that he
is gone broke doing it that way he must
have men out stealing them, etc. However,
the title has never been questioned concern
ing a horse that he sold, and a man that stood
in the stock exchange and bet ten thousand
dollars on Mckinley as he did is not a man.
that is broke. The first time Waldron came
to Shenandoah great opposition was put
against him. He was made to pay license,
etc, and many other contemplate things to-
stop him were done. OF course this was ex-
pected, for the old saying is, big fish eat
little ones" Waldron vowed that. owing To-
the dirty tricks done to him by certain
people, he would make Shenandoah one Of
his principle auction markets, if it cost him
all he was worth, and il seems as if he was
carrying out his vow, and the purchasers are
reaping the benefit 1t would have been
better for some had they left this dealer
alone. Many are now waiting for his coming
sale which will be big one.

 size of the jars was concerned. To an occidental mind, which has never been called upon to grasp the conception of a jar much bigger than bean pot, the
