blighting holidays are over. \ few Of the the

few nights, but at others the business has been
only fair, while at not a few it has been deplor-
able. Scarcely anything new will be seen this
week After Christmas new plays will crop up
again in plenty, and a few may be looked for

The work of the average woman, whether
she be in charge of a household, where the
work is always doing but never done, or be-
hind counter. or in schoolroom, is of
sort that rarely leaves her with strength or
inclination for anything else.
The strain upon most wOmen's nerves, is so
great that breakdown stares many of them
constantly in the face which means loss Of
work. DOCTORS bills and discOuragement.
One of the earliest and one of the most
infallible indications of failing nervous
strength is the inability to sleep soundly.
No fact is more clearly established than
that sleep repairs the tired nervous tissues
and that the loss of sleep deranges the health
more quickly and more seriously than any
other privatOn the body can suffer. The
great effort then, of every poor sleeper
should be to strengthen the nerves. The
fact that hundreds Of men and women in
every community have been cured of in-
sOmnia by Paine's celery compound tells its
own story of the invigorating effect Of this
wonderful remedy, not only upon the nerves,
but upon the entire nervous system.
Physicians prescribe Paine's celery com
| pound where the nerves have become so ex-
hausted that not only sleep but digestion is

iuterfered with. Its immediate invigoratiug
effect in such cases is shown in the following
letter from Mrs Fannie West, president of
the South Side relief society of Chicago.
The letter is dated December 12 1898
I'VE feel very glad to acknowledge the
iiue qualities of Pane's celery compound. 1t
is the best remedy we know of for building
up the nervous system. our doctors prescribe
it, and it always gives immediate relief"
Back of nervousness, sleeplessness and
many of the peculiar ailments of women is
poverty of the blood. PaleDess, thinness of
the body and weakness are evidences of poor
blood. In some cases palpitation of the
heart is complained of, and when the poverty
is greatest, the lips are pallid and the tongue
almost cOlorless.
In these cases of anaemia if Paine's celery
compound is used the gain FROM day TO day is
plainly noticeable. Its tonic effect in renew
ing the blood and restoring the strength has
been little short of miraculous in cases Of ex-
treme emaciatiOn and nervous prostration
If a woman feels that she is losing ground
in weight and strength she should set about
increasing the blood supply at once with the
aid Of Paine's celery compound.
Give this greatest of all remedies trial.

Making New shoes secondhand.

81 knew a man once" said a man who
was getting his shoes blacked to his neigh
Dor in the next chair, that had new
pair of shoes every week for a year, and
they never cost him a cent.
"Why, how was that?" the other man
asked.
"He used TO wear new shoes for a sec
ond hand shoe dealer.
"What did he do that for?"
so as to put some signs of wear on
'em and make 'em secondhand bargains.
1t left 'em literally as good as new, and
the dealer could truthfully say that there
was a pair Of shoes that had never been
worn half dozen times in the world, and
anybody could see that that was a fact.
Blacked up in good shape, they'd look
slick as could be and sell as a bargain in
fine secondhand shoes and bring about
what such shoes would sell for new. -

ITALY'S INCREASING FLEET.
ly Wasted During the Past
Twenty Years.

The board of admirals, presided over
by his royal highness the duke of Ge-
noa, has decided upon the construction
of a tirst-class battleship, the designs
for which are already in course of
preparation. Four new armored iron
clads will also be placed on the blocks
shortly, three in private yards and one
in the government yard at laramie.
They will be $40 feet in length. with dis
placement varying from 10000 to 1000
tons. In the beginning of June two
SiXth-class cruisers, the COalit and the
Agordat, will be launched at Castel-
lammare. They are 210 feet in length,
1913 tons displacement, 800 horse
power and % knots speed, and have
cost 100000 each. The torpedo catch
er Condor is also a new addition to the
Italian fleet. but | learn that her en-
gines broke down during the first trial,
which took place the other day, anC
they will have to be extensively re-
paired and partially modified. Signor
Randaccio's report on the actual state
of the Italian navy, submitted the other
day to the chamber of deputies, could
hardly be more pessimistic and has
given public opinion something in the
nature of an electric shock. 1t de-
scribes the fleet as existing only in the
past and future, as there are at present
only seven battleshLps which could be
of any use and severely stigmatizes the
reckless waste of 5000. .OOO.O 900 on the
naval budget during the last 20 years,
stating that that sum would have been
amply sufficient, if iudiciouslN enc
ployed, to furnish Italy with an Efficient
navy. In spite of few grumblng
voices from the clerical party, che pop
uar cry to-day throughout the country
is for more ships. London Leader.

the Golden Penny. These constitute
the largest ivory sales in the world,
some 80 tons being sold at each sale, at
a rough aggregate of $50O,000. The
worlds annual consumption of ivory is
estimated at something like 2,500,000
pounds, valued at $4,50O, 900, and to sup
ply this amount 10000 elephants must
be killed. The consumption in Shelf
field alone requires the annual slaugh-
ter of $4,000 animals. Africa supplies
the greatest bulk of ivory, and it forms
one of the principal exports of the
Zanzibar merchants. One firm some
years ago sent away in one year as
many as 5000 tusks. The supply OF
ivory is not what it once was. and it
seems as if the wild elephant, like the
American bison, must eventually be eX-
terminated. The Indian wild elephant
has become so scarce of late that India
is now obliged to import considerable
quantity of ivory, indeed, the demand
for ivory is constantly increasing, and
as the supply becomes less and less the
price of ivory rises proportionately A
vast amount of fossil ivory is exported
from eastern Siberia to various coun-
tries, chiefly to the continent, where il
is more highly esteemed than in Eng
land
