In a thousand instances the invention of a machine or the introduction of new method in some department of me- ehanical engineering has brought into use an entirely new form of industry and made effective and productive the highest powers of thous ands of people who otherwise would probaoly be compelled to drudge on :n old ways and to content themselves with old rates of compensation. The reduction of costs of product and the increase Tn the wages of labor are the two most striking results of the revolution or the century, while the accession Of value conferred upon material is sometimes quite as impressive, if not actually as important, as when the often-recouht- ed fact is noted of the increase uf the value of iron from $1 in the ore to S5 or S6 in the shape of iron bar, to. $lO in any one of many finished machine made forms. to $200 and upward in fine cutlery, to 5000 and $1O,OS0 in needles, to .$2OO.OOO and more in com mon watch springs, and to perhaps $500. 900 in the shape of hair springs, inc most refined condition of the met al yet attained, or even up to $2,5Oe, ,OOO' according to MT.

NERVOUS DISEASES
Gan Be Endured But They Can Also Be Cured.

You may have suffered from various tforns of nervous trouble: there are usu-
 ally many complications whenever the
 nervous system breaks dwn. Any slight lexcitement almost 2rostrates you. your spirits are depressed, you have frequent nervous headaches, you suffer from sleep ttsssnes or unrestful sleep. you have dix .Einess or palpitation of the heart, and at
 al1 times suffer from that restles, fidKety feeling that mark nervous debility. }, You can endure all these nervous trou- ss for years or escape them now and sss. r good. You can choose one condition
 the other. The difference is largely ue to the presence or lack of iron in the /. ystem-a kind of iron you may never
 sat unless you get it from Dr. Harter's
 Iron Tonic.
 It promptly cures all forms of nervous debility or exhaustion. It increases the VSigor of all your vital organs. It en- ,fFtches your blood with just that form of rIren needed to build up your nervous sys, Nsm and to give you nerve force and mus Euier energy.
 You should know that Dr. Harter's Iron 'xl3onfc is not an experiment. not a new |nE1medy. but one which has been constant ar overcoming these conditions for forty. ngve years. You can believe in a remedy With a record like that. Made oply b. Rhe Dr. Harter Medicine Co.,, Dayton, O Eold everywhere. e

New Perils for Tobacco Users.

London Chronicle.
 The average mortal who discusses tobacco from the point of view of the smoker talks learnedly, as rule, about nicotine, and the injury that the ab- sorptiofl of that active principle is cal culated to effect on humanity. It would seem that nicotine, like fusil oil in whiskey, is not in itself such dangerous thing when all is said and done Probably we get little or no nic- otine at all in the course of our ordl- nary pipe and cigar experimentation. Nicotine is not in itself so harmful as is ordinarily supposed, but becomes 50 Oike fusiI oiD from the bad company which, chemically speaking, 1t keeps. Hitherto nicotine has been regarded as the only active principle Whlch the fragrant weed contains, but one learns that, as the result of recent experi- ments, three new principles nave been isolated. What effect these latter sub stances may exert on the smoker Is topic which has yet to be investigated, but it would not be a surprising mat ter to discover that the consequences of tobacco excess. most marked on eyes and heart, were due rather to the new Undiscovered. principles than to the nicotine itself 1 trust the Anti-Io- bacco Society is not going to make cap ital out of this new discovery, for the assertion that tobacco is poison Will evoke the inevitable remark that, if so it is a remarkably slow one in re- spect to its effects. As my late friend, Wikie Collins, used to say, all the op- position offered to the use of tobacco only sends the smoker back with re- newed relish to his pipe or cigar.

He said he was declared the nominee of the party. He did not run ip- the spirit of arraying himself against the State Executive Committee. MT. Will Hams said that he was never against the State Democratic Committee and no matter what the caucus might do he would continue to be Democrat.
 At this point Mir. Pettus of Lime stone, who had vigorously opposed the ] seat ting # Mir. Williams undertook to have a suspension of the rules in order to introduce a resolution seating MT. Williams in the Caucus in the interest of harmony in the party in Fillmore County.
 The remarks ofMr. Pettus indicated the tenor of his resolution and he was frequently interrupted.
 Jenkins and WllIett Mix. Mir. Willett played a leading part in the interruption and a heated colloquy | ensued between Messrs Jenkins of Will l cox and Willett. MT. Jenkins asked Mir.

In calm voice and with the utmost dignity the presiding officer, MT. Fletcher. said that the delegates were most disrespectful to themselves and to the caucus. He quietly made the significant suggestion that the investi- gation was not being conducted to further the ambitions of any of the younger delegates.
