DON'T JUMP OFF THE CARS.
quently Result from This Too
Common Practice.

Jumping off moving trains and street
cars as praeticed to-day is a fruitful
source Of nervoGs disorders and one
not fully recognized for its Importance
By any school except oseopaths. Yet
the facts are easily comprehended.
Certain it is that nervousness in all
its protean forms, from irritability,
neurasthenia and general nervous col
lapse to paralysis is so caused andtha
the careless habit of many people Of
bowling off moving cars stiff-legged
lays the foundation for these disor-
ders of every hour Of the day, says Os-
teopathic Health.
In leading the strenuous life Of our
cities men and women seem unable to
wait to get to their journeys end. Be
fore trains come to a half stop at
crossings and platforms fidgety pc
destrians with muscles tense drop from
car platforms, and almost before their
bodies have recovered from the for
ward momentum are stalking a mad
foot race against time in the opposite
direction. This enterprise saves ten
seconds, Of course, for that particular
errand, but possibly it hastens by
many months ones journey to the
grave. Positive injury is thereby done
to the spine and nervous system which
must gather in cumulative effect until
one day the whole nervous organism
may 60 70 pieces. Mere slips of the
vertebrae from their true positions,
one upon the other, and the strains
brought to bear in consequence upon
the hgaments and muscles, binding
them together, are what first occur
from these sudden innumerable pound
ings Of hard heels against adamant
pavements. These seemingly trivial
mishaps to the body are productive Of
the most far-reaching consequences.
At every point in the spine where
such a concussion spends its force a
defective spot develops. II becomes a
weak point anatomically and a point

The ingenuity of a Yankee in
ventor has devised a use for that
humble and unloyely shrub of the
western deserts known as the
"greasewood." 1t has been found TO
contain a gum that affords a yalu-
able substitute for rubber. The
method of obtaining the gum, which
has been newly patented, consists in
bruising the woody stalks of the
greasewood, soaking them in solu-
ton of carbon disulphide, and then
drawing off the liquid, which is dis
titled. The chemical used as a
solvent is driven off by heat, and
there remains in the bottom of the
vessel a gummy stuff, flexible and
elastic. Finally, the gummy stuff is
washed and purified, the result be-
ing a very fair substitute for india
rubber-so good. in fact, as to sug-
rest the notion that some day the
American deserts may be made TO
Weld very satisfactory profits in the
production of raw material for gum
shoes and bicycle tires.-Philadelphis

Inniter.s Red SPOT.

The planet Jupiter will be one of
the astronomical sights of this sum
mer. and the enigmatical "red spot"
will again be favorite object for anna
teur astronomers to point out 70 their
friends who wish to see some OF the
things that telescopes reveal. This
strange marking has now been con-
tinuouslv visible on Jupiter's south
ern hemisphere for "a years, having
made its appearance quite suddenly IN
ISIS. There is reason TO think that
II had been family visible nearly ten
wears earlier. During the first two
or three years after its discovery II

ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE.

Mr.. j. II. French OF Barre, VT, says,
II desire to let the world know
where they can not only find relief,
but a permanent cure. For the last
Is years have been great sufferer
from rheumatism, Indigestion and
kidney trouble. Some doctors had
pronounced my case to be Bright's dis
ease, others said that my greatest
trouble came from my stomach. |
have spent hundreds of dollars and
consulted ~ physicians with little, II
any, benefit. As soon as there was
storm coming, ! could tell it "a hours
ahead, and sometimes much longer as
| would commence to suffer great pain
from my rheumatism, and often have
been confined to the house from this
most painful affection. My stomach
was in such a condition that /, at
times. could scarcely take any food
without distressing me almost 10
death, even light food, such as toast
and the cereals would distress me
even at times cold water would cause
a distressed and burnt feeling IN my
stomach. My kidneys were bad, my
urine was very highly colored and OF
fensive. and | was compelled to url-
nate from Is to 20 times during the
dav and night. and it seemed the
greater portion of the night, when /
secured very little rest or sleep. My
bowels at times were very much con-
stipated, and again they were too
loose, and in this trying condition, so
to speak, / called upon DR.. Morrow.
after a careful examination of my
urine. he told me if | would strictly
follow his directions that he would
cure me, but must admit / had very
| little faith in him, as | had tried so
many doctors and high-sounding-nam-
ed medicines. So, after talking with
my wife and friends, decided to try
the Dr.'s treatment. At first, / must
admit. improved very slowly, If any,
and cot very discouraged, but as the
doctor assured me that he had started
in at the bottom of the disease to re-
move the cause, as the disease mad

TO take the second months treatment.
Then commenced to see improve

months he told me that / required no
more medicine and that If ] would
take care OF myself my cure would be
permanent.
True to his word, up to this time |
have never felt better. and for a man
of my age, 90. am able to do good,
fair days work. OF course get tired
easier than | used to, but am neither
lame nor sore and eat three good
square meals without any disturbance
to my stomach or bowels.

Chanute Is Growing,

them will be exceedingly handsome.
All are badly needed. Business IN
the city is growing very fast.

houses, rooms and store rooms. A
few families are now occupying barns.
IL being impossible to find an empty
house In the town. 1t would seem
that now is the time for some enter
prising citizen to build number of
fats. They would undoubtedly pay
the owner well for the investment.
The growth Of Chanute is healthy
one and one that will last. There is
now no town In the state so much
talked OF by outsiders as this city.
The attention of the entire country
is called to us, and we trust it will
continue 80 for all time to come but
to keep steadily growing it requires
more houses and in this respect Cha
mute Is in bad way. 1t is to be
hoped that many residenceswill 90 I'D
