~ r. MILES NERVINE is with
out question the best remedy
A for LaGrippe and its after ef.
feets. LaGrippe affects the nerves
direct. DR.. Miles Nervine acts di-
rectly on the nerves. LaGrippe ex-
hausts the vitality and 3stroys the
the nerve tissue, deadening the senses
and weakening the entire system. Dr.
Miles Nervine builds up and replen-
ishes the nerve tissues, restores vital
ity, strengthens the system and inn
bues the mental faculties with new
life, energy and vigor. LaGrippe, like
a cold, attacks the weakest of the Or
gans, for the reason that the nerves
controlling that organ are weakened.
DR.. Miles Nervine strengthens the
diseased and weakened organs.
Miss Cordelia Smith of Versailles,
KY, writes: ''In 1890 I had several at
tacks Of LaGrippe which left me pros
trated with nervousness. The pros
tration was particularly severe and
painful from the fact that / had SUI.
fered from weak back and nervous
attacks all my life. On the recon-
mendation of our druggists, Messrs.
e. D. Scrogin & Co., used DR.. Miles
Nervine and it restored me to health,
not only did / recover from LaGrippe,
but from my life long troubles and I
am now In better health than ever"

* fering caused by nervousness
- N sleeplessness and that miser-
able feeling Of unrest, is so gratifying
that there is no wonder it is pleas
ure to recommend the remedy to the
world. DR.. Miles Restorative Rene
dies are scientific remedies, prepared
from DR.. Miles prescriptions each
remedy for its own particular purpose,
yet all so assimulated that two or
more may be taken with benefit when
indicated. Remedies so prepared un-
der the supervision Of sc. famous a
physician as DR.. Miles may be safely
recommended to ones friends with
the assurance they viii be benefited.
Mrs Clinton Randall Of Ellicettville
N. 2, says Of DR.. Miles Nervine:
ST had suffered for two years from
extreme nervousness and sleeplessness.
With a very poor appetite and miser-
able general health, it was impossible
to get good nights rest and the days
passed In WEAKNESS and unrest. My
limbs and arms would twitch and jerk
and seemed to be loosing control of
both body and mind. ] tried great
many prescriptions and remedies with
out relief until ! began taking DR..
Miles Restorative Nervine. 1t made
me another person entirely; my appe-
tite is good, I sleep as soundly as any
one, and I believe it the best remedy
In existence. Its effect on the nervous
system Is marvellous and lasting. With
pleasure recommend DR.. Miles Re
storative Nervine for the good it has
done me and know it win do others"

Levee Amendment Defeated by Er.

The contest or the IrrepreSSlDie

ments from negroes that they hao
been debarred from voting
through the operations fthe suf-
/ frage provisions of the Constitu.
| ton of-189O. As this is question
on which the United States SUI
pream Court has ruled, the tilt OF
Jones against that tribunal was re-
garded as having no more motive
than contest fees.
1t seems, however, that in draw
ing up his notice of contest Jones
discovered, and has disclosed, a
grave error in the manner of the
levee amendment to the Constitu-
ton.
AS voters will recall, the levee
amendment to the Constitution
was submitted upon ballot sepa-
rate from that Of the one contain
ing the names of the candidates
voted from. While this is so, sec
ton 1864 of the Code provides as
follows:
"Whenever the question of a
constitutional amendment, or
other question admitting of an
affirmative or negative vote, is
submitted to vote of the cleo
tors, the amendment, question or
matter shall be printed on the
official ballot, TOGETHER WITH THE
NAMES OF THE CANDIDATES, ii any
and also the word yea or nay, to
be so arranged that the voter can
intelligently vote his preference
by making cross mark(X)oppo-
site the word indicating his pre-
ference.
Why this provision was not
complied with in the preparation
of the sample ballot, the Herald
is uniformed. Il may be that
there was s'me satisfactory reason
for this which will be forthcoming.
Section 1886 provides that "lt is
the duty of the Secretary of State
with the approval of the Cover
nor, to furnish the designated
commission of each county a
sample of the official ballot %
AS the Governor is a lawyer
and presumably thoroughly con-
versant with the Code we hope he
can give a sufficient explanation
of the question involved to save
the amendment. It will be re-
markable indeed, and at least. If
no one interested was aware or
mindful of this section-that a
negro political pot hunter should
have given a lesson in the Code to

its contents if supposed to be a
