Nothing demoralizes the health soon

occasional loss of sleep. To start n
new day with the brain unrefreshed !s
like trying to keep WORKOUT horse
up to his work with the whip instead
of by feeding. The incessant brain ac-
tivity is as II the skull were laid bare
and the surface Of the brain were
struck lightly every few seconds and
without a sign of "let up"
Thus sleeplessness imperceptibly. but
no less surely, destroys the brain cells
that are the sources of mental power
and the health Of every organ of the
body.
Paine's celery compound gets the
nervous system out of this dangerous
rut of sleeplessness. II supplies nour-
ishment to the nervous tissues faster
than they are worn out, and does not
let the nutrition of these delicate parts
get low enough to bring on insomnia.
one of the earliest evidences of the
final success OF Paine's celery COM
pound in curing debility. nervousness,
sleeplessness and arrangements of liver
and kidneys is the increased appetite,
the clear skin, and that understandable
precursor of health, feeling of well
being" that takes the place of the tired
languid, melancholy condition.

A FERTILE REGION.
A Description of San Juan County, New
Mexico.

The following, which appeared IN the
New Years edition of the Denver Re
publican, is here reproduced ut the re-
quest of a correspondent.
Pennington, N. NJ, Dec. 31.-(Spe-
eial)MThe past year has been an I'M
usually prosperous one for the great
fruit and agricultural districts of San
Juan county, n. NJ. The most salts
factory :" 1ther conditions prevailed
during H. growing season and fun
crops of every variety OF fruit, hay,
grain, fodder, etc, We're realized.
This country is drained by three
large streams, the San Juan, Anl.nas
and La Plata rivers, and the valley OF
each stream forms an agricultural or
fruit district by itself. and in the low
err end of the county, where the AMI
mas and La Plata merge into one with
the San Juan valley. IL the wonderful
Pennington fruit district surrounding
the town of Pennington. Along the
upper Animas, from Aztec to the state
line, and along the upper La Plata.
great quantities of grain. hay, alfalfa
and small fruits are raised. and large
numbers of high bred cattle and hogs
are bred and fattened. In the Farm
Ington district fruit raising is the
principal pursuit, while at the same
time immense quantities OF corn, small
grain, alfalfa, potatoes, etc. ale pre-
duced. Although as a fruit district
this country is comparatively new, and
a large number of young orchards have
not yet come into bearing, yet the en-
tire fruit crop of this vicinity, during
the season just closed, reached the
enormous quantity of some twenty
million pounds. The yield per acre
was in many instances truly remark
able. There were numerous ten-acre
tracts of seven to ten year old apple
and pear trees which gave yield of
400, 900 pounds of fruit, many Individual
trees bearing from 1000 to l.5pJ pounds.
Apples of every variety formed about
so per cent of the crop, while 20 per
cent We're peaches, 20 per cent pears,
and 10 per cent was made up of such
| fruits as cherries, upricots, plums. nee
| tarlnes, grapes etc. Large quantities
of the most luscious berries of every
variety were also raised, and the
! watermelons and cantaloupes that were
produced would not have found a rival
| in the fanciest patch down in "Ole
| Georgy," as far as quality and size
We're concerned Aside from the fruit.
| this vicinity produced 10000 tons of al
| falfa, 10000 bushels OF corn, 10000
bushels OF fine winter wheat, rye and
| oats 200 tons of honey as well as large
| quantities of potatoes, hcets, vege-
| tables, etc. Great numbers of cattle
and hogs were fattened, and the noun
tain towns supplied with chickens,
turkeys and various dairy products.
MILLIONS OF POUNDS HAULED
OUT BY WAGONS.
But the one drawback this country
| has to contend with. in the face of all
its good things, II the lack of adequate
transportation facilities. The nearest

WAs POLITE TO GARCIA.

One report hath it that the letter said to have been written by General Calix- to Garcia to General Shafter was really written by a newspaper man and that it is doubtful that Garcia ever saw it.. Be this as it may, General Shafter has answered the letter, and in his answer he completely disposes of the only part of the letter which was worth atten- tion. This was the queer assertion: q was neither honored, sir, with a kind word from you inviting myself or any officer of my staff to represent the Cu- ban army on that memorable occa- sion." General Shafter says this: You will remember the fact that I invited you to accompany me into the town of Santiago to witness the surrender, which you declined"
 Of course General Shafter was under no obligation to let the Cubans run things in and around Santiago, but he was under obligation to be polite to General Garcia. He says he was and that settles it. If Garcia is unreason- able that isn't General Shafter's fault

the lakes navy that won brilliant victories for the nation. At the close of the war and after peace had been concluded Adams was instructed to suggest to the British government that all warships be removed from the great lakes and that their neutrality be guaranteed by treaty, which provided that no warships should either be maintained or constructed upon the lakes. As a consequence those lakes for nearly a century have been with out war vessels, save only few speci- fled boats permitted to each side for police duty.
 Naturally the movement for the ab- rogation of this treaty doesn't find general acceptance. The Chicago Rec ord is especially stirred up about it. It forcibly says: Had it not been for that treaty the United States and Great Britain would each be trying to IldlntdlH OH lL6 ldheS d ldISeI AteI than the other The result would have been enormous expense to both gov ernments and increased dangers of war This treaty, guaranteeing the neutrali- l ty of the Amerio an lakes, is one of the achievements of civilization of which America may we'll be proud. So long as neither Great Britain nor the United
 States has warships on the lakes neith- CT has need of any. The peace policy
 is of more importance to this country
 than to Great Britain, because we have many large cities on the lakes that would be exposed to the fire of war 1 ships Yet certain Americans are cry | ing to have this beneficent treaty abro- gated, thus exposing Chicago and all | other lake cities to the danger of hos 1 tile British ships that may be con- sructed and kept upon the lakes after | it's abrogation. And why? Simply that
 shipbuilding interests on the lakes can
 make money building ships. Let the 1 treaty of 1917 stand. Its abrogation would be reactionary and serious blow to the American peace policy of | which our nation should be proud.

low rate of 2h per cent. per annum. This Is said to be the lowest rate of in- terest at which any State south of the Potomac has ever borrowed money. The loan was made by the Park National bank and is for a period of five months. Governor Atkinson did not take up any collateral. He mortgaged nothing and put up nothing except Georgias prom ise to pay, He reached New York on Sunday week and left there Wednesday, and when he came away the money was on deposit to the States credit. This loanwas made to enable the school department to pay off the teachers. The State treasury has $2O0,OOO on hand to the credit of the teachers fund. That was just half enough. No money is coming into the State now and there will not be much until November, when it will roll in.

The vest with It's cross- ed over fronts was of white chiffon. A large black satin bow dotted the one rever, and black satin was employed in the belt. A summer dress of cash mere has the especial recommendation for economical folk of being suitable for wear when the days are cooler. Considering the general usefulness of the material, the continued liking for it by fashionable folk is remarkable, for women with long purses are much given to discarding promptly the goods that wear well.

4 DUBIOUS MOVE.

It is announced that Don M. Dickin-
 son has filed with the state department at Washington brief in behalf of the shipbuilding interests on the lakes, urging the abrogation of the treaty with Great Britain which prohibits the building or maintaining of war ships on the great lakes. There has been a strong demand of late, princi- pally from the shipbuilding interests, for the abrogation of this treaty. The treaty was ratified and went into ef- feet in 1877. It was entered into at the suggestion and request of the Ameri- can government, in furtherance of a peace policy commended by the states men of that day. John Quincy Adams was then minister to Great Britain, and James Monroe, later president and author of the Monroe doctrine, was secretary of state. During the war of 1872 the Americans had constructed on

AMERICAN STEEL.

An order was recently given to a Pittsburg company for seven hundred and seventy tons of steel plates to be used in the construction of steamers at the largest shipbuilding yards at Bel fast, and it is said to be the first order of the kind ever given to an American concern. It proves that this country can compete with England in the pro- duction of such shipbuilding materials. whose trade the enterprise and skill of the manufacturers of this country are disturbing. Germany is much stirred by American competition, and one i'm portant plan to offset it has been made. A company of German capitalists and steel manufacturers has begun the con- struction of an immense steel plant up- on ground purchased from the Pullman company, just outside the limits of Pullman, and will undertake the pro- duction of steel upon a large scale. Twenty acres of ground are to be cov- cred with buildings. The new plant will be one of the largest steel-produc- ing works in America, and will be the means of an active competition of the German manufacturers with American producers upon their own ground. The company is said to be operating similar plants in Germany, Austria and Wales.

Vesuvius has been attracting much attention lately, and a phenomenon of much scientific importance was observ- ed short time ago. A portion of the southern crust of the vast crater fell in, closing the mouth completely. The heat from the burning lava below caus- ed the soil to become incandescent, and blue and green flames sprang from the center to height of several yards. This continued some time and mean while the heat was concentrating itself at the bottom of the crater. At last great mass of flame burst out, accom- panied by a terrific noise like waves breaking on rocks in storm. The flames rose to height of fifty yards and were bright yellow in color.
