Nervous

People often wonder why their nerves are
so weak; why they get tired so easily;
why they start at every slight but
sudden sound; why they do not sleep
naturally; why they have frequent
headaches, indigestion and
Palpitation Of the Heart.
The explanation is simple. 1t is found in
that impure blood which is contin-
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
donot cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds
the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, self
control, vigorous health and is the
true remedy for all nervous trou bles.

ley Lakes on the subject OF the game
laws, merits attention from sportsmen
and law makers. Our contemporary pro-
poses, in brief, to repeal the whole code
and begin anew, and it presents strong
case in favor of this radical procedure.
Published in one of the most noted sport
ing regions of Maine it is for the interest
of Rangeley Lakes that game and fish
should be adequately protected, and the
writer is doubtless we'll informed on
the subject. 1t does SEEM however. as
if there must be special legislation in
some cases. 1t would not do to leave a

ilsh must lave an opportunity to grow
and multiply. But no doubt the existing
laws could be greatly simplified and i'm
proved, and we hope this may be done at
the coming session of the legislature.

ground that his position as ambassador
would prevent his accepting gift of the
kind proposed.
Mr.. Bayard is quite correct He could
not accept such a gift without the con-
sent of Congress, and we doubt if that
consent could be obtained. His popular
ity in London has been obtained by the
sacrifice OF his popularity at home.
