Its Cause, Effect and Pos.
tive Cure.

Disordered nerves cause more real
misery than any other complaint, and
no trouble grows worse more rapidly
through neglect, or through the use
of Intellectual remedies. Overwork,
worry, undue strain of mind and
body, imprudence and exceSseS of all
sorts, help to bring on a disordered
state of the nerves, which if not
attended to, rapidly runs into Nervous
Prostration, Nervous Debility, Hys-
terra, Melancholia and even Insanity
itself. Are you low spirited or de-
pressed; do you worry over trifleS !;
are you irritable; do you find it hard
to fix your mind on your work are
you drowsy after eating and wakeful
at night; is your circulation slow
These are the unerring signals of SER
louS nervous trouble. In LAXINE we
have the ideal remedy that Steadies.
the Nerves, relieves the tension upon
them, gives them a chance to repair
their shattered condition., tones up
the general system, and makes mag
netlc manhood and Womanhood. 1t
does all this promptly, surely and
safely, without the aid of the danger
Gus drugs supposed to be essential in
medicines of this kind.
LAXINE is a scientifically prepared
product which feeds the exhausted
Nerves, tones and strengthens the
general system, enricheS the blood,
tranquiizes the mind, fortifies the
whole body, and turns your distress
to comfort.
Many cases of Kidney and Urinary
Complaints, impoverished Blood, also
Female Troubles, are accompanied
with extreme nervousness. In all
such cases take LAXINE.

Why Good Blood Is NeCes-
sary for Health.

Good health demands good blood.
There is no difference of opinion on
this point. Doctors disagree on
almost every other part or function of
the body, but they stand soIidly to-
gether in insisting that the blood
must be pure, strong and abundant.
If your blood is not right it tells you
so in unmiStakable language. When
your system lacks blood you are pale,
llStleSS and have the much oked
about tired feeling" And it is no
joke either. If your blood is impure
plmPleS appear upon your face. You
may also have boilS or assesses. A
sore on your body heals slowly, if at
all. Heed the red flag of danger
when you see pimples come, or if you
are pale and losing flesh. LAXINE
brings back the color to the wasted
cheeks and surely and speedily elimi-
mates all poiSonS from the system.
Its mission is to build up and enrich
the blood, thus enabling it to make
plenty of new healthy tissue.
LAXINE is a wonderful Spring Tonic.
1t should be freely taken by the
whole family, as the rigorS of winter
depart. 1t cleans out and brushes
up the whole system, and after its
use you will meet the approaching
warm weather refreshed and ready
for the good things of life, and not IN
the usual liStlesS, weary manner so
common to many.
The worst cases of Chronic Rheu-
matlSm acknowledge the power of
LAXINE. Rheumatism is mainly
a blood disorder and no better cure
for this painful malady can be found
anywhere.
Cameron County press. [volume] (Emporium, Cameron County, Pa.) 1866-1922, 1902-02-27
With Its Attendant
Ills.

The most common of all human
complaints. The complaint which
comes with our first garments, and
which will last just so long as men
and women persist in defying natures
laws as regards diet, daily habits,
exercise, etc. While it is a source of
discomfort and ill-feeling of itself, the
chief danger lies in neglected ConSti-
patton leading to other and more
serious troubles. Bad Blood, Piles
Chronic Liver Complaint, serious
Kidney arrangements and many
other obscure and complicated d
troubles, have often had their begin
ming in simple Constipation, made
worse bypersiStent neglect. Gener-
ally speaking, Constipation indicates
either a disordered Liver, or a dys-
peptic condition of the stomach; some
times a combination of both troubles.
1t is very commonly brought on by
being irregular about performing the
duties Of nature.
In LAXINE we have a perfect and
rational cure for all phases of this
complaint, and we unhesitatingly
agree to cure any case of Constipa-
ton, no matter how long standing or
obstinate.
If you have sallow, yellow COM
pleXion, yellowish eyeballs, tired-out
feeling, dizziness, vertigo, variable
appetite or sick headache, take LAX
lNE as directed and drink freely of
good water, and your Constipation
will be cured to stay cured.

The Complaint of the
Century,.

No part of the body receives more
i'll treatment than the stomach. For
years the stomach will care for all
sorts of illy-cooked, half-chewed,
greasy, indigestible foods, at all
hours, without complaining. Then
come the warning signals of Indiges-
ton; neglect these and you will soon
learn that no organ in your body can
hit back so hard and inhict so much
misery as your stomach, as when the
horrors of Dyspepsia are hourly with
you. Still, Dyspepsia is not par
ticularly dangerous disease. 1t sell
dom causes death. 1t merely permits
the sufferer to linger in misery for
the allotted time of life.
If you have a bloated feeling
across the stomach, especially after
meals, belching of sour, foul gases
and flatulence; burning sensation
at the pit of the stomach, loss of appe-
tite, general debility, constipation,
sour taste in the mouth on arising,
etc, take comfort in the knowledge,
so often expressed, that LAXINE has
proved itself to be a sure and unfaiI-
ing specific for all troubles of stomach
and bowels.
The never-failing remedial action
of this medicine is felt from the first
dose, while few days treatment
works wonders.

Monkey Chums With a Cat.
From the Philadelphia Public Ledger

The Zoo has bashful monkey. The keep
ers call him "Bashful Willie" He was born
in the garden one year ago. and is the son
Of the large Japanese monkey whose de-
structive proclivities have earned for her
the sobriquet Carrie Nation
Carrie was with While In separate cage
until he was four months old. He was then
placed in the large cage with the other
monkeys. but he was found to~be too BASH
full to live in their company. He kept on
bowling right and left. but was too tmid to
eat or even drink in the presence of others.
A special cage was placed In Keeper Nc
Crossans office. and there in solitude Bash
full Willie is thriving. The only company
he enjoys is Snake Keeper Hess white cat,
which has become famous for having one
blue and one yellow eye. The cat pays reg
ular visits to Willie and allows him to pull
her tail through the bars.
A few days ago Willie had a cough, and 1t
was thought advisable to bring the mother
to him, but even Carrie was repulsed by
Willie. who screamed loud and buried his
head In corner.

CHINESE LAUNDRY CHECKS.
Ingenious Celestial Method of Iden
tifying Customers.

From the New York Evening Post.
The ingenuity of the Monaghan mind Is
well displayed in the system of accounts and
checks in the laundry business. If their
written language were as scientific and &C
curate as our own, IT would be an excellent
creation but they labor under many disad-
vantages which unknown to the civilized
world. There are no characters in Chinese
for letters of any such simple variations as
Roman and Arabic numerals. 1t is, there
fore impossible to translate or transliterate
into Chinese such common marks as "a. y
or CIV. 81. In place of this the Chinaman
uses the ideographs for the commoner facts
of life, such as house" moon, dog"
lion" bear table" Chair" and
street"
In addition to these he employs the nu-
neral characters from 1 up to 100.
A customer comes to a laundry unable to
speak Chinese and delivers his wash to a

pie of the legal indenture. 1t Is impossible
to initiate the torn piece so that 1t will At

upon the day book Of the laundry the pro-
prietor enters under the day Of the week or
the month the telegraph moon or lion as
signed to the customer and beneath this the
articles left to be Numbered. He then takes
down from the hook lot of muslin tags, on
which are written in indelible ink moon

tags Is affixed to each article, excepting the
cuffs and collars. To these one tag Is affixed.
which is fastened by strong thread or cord
tied through the buttonhole in each article.
In addition to this they often put private
mark upon the article to be cleaned. al
though this is not very common. When the
goods are washed and ironed they are done
up in a package and the day and special
character written on the outside. In addi-
ton to this the half ticket Is fastened to 1t
with a pin. When the customer enters he
gives his half ticket up. and IL he is known
by sight the package Is handed over to him.
If he Is not known, or is suspected OF being

fitted to the laundry half ticket before the
package Is handed over.

LAURA KEENE's sUPERsTITIoNs.
Bottle of Red Ink Played an Important
Part in Her Life.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.

FROM the Chicago lnter-Ocean.
Laura Keene, with whom I appeared in
1922" says Mr. Robson, was one Of the
most intelligent women I ever met and yet
her most pronounced characteristic is one
which is generally associated with ignor-
ance. She was superstitious to an absurd
degree. She never allowed her actors to
take hold of a chair with the right hand
To study a part on Sunday was a crime
To carry an umbrella with a hook handle
meant immediate discharge to the offender.
The sight Of bottle of red ink was enough
to frighten her for a week. She said the
use of it was almost certain to precede
some awful trouble. On one occasion we
were playing a farce called The Lady and
the Devil. An important scene was when
she was seated at a writing table prepara-
tory TO composing a letter. I, as her serv-
ant, was standing at the back of her chair.
Take your right hand away from that
ratified me trif1e. The stage dialogue pro-
ceeded:
You are sure you can find Don Rafael
al his lodgngs?'
Yes, madam: his servant tells me- his
wound will confine him to his bed for a
week
g is this the only paper we have? Where
Is the ink?'
Here, madam and I bent forward to
place the ink within her reach, when, in
my confusion at her reproof, the vessel
was upset and its contents trickled into the
lap of her white satin dress. The ink was
blood red. IT," CHASTITY look that came
over the lady's face 1 shall never forget 1
frightened 1 never knew how the
scene ended: The next morning at rehear-
sal she told me 1 would never have any
luck as long as lived, and that my trouble
in the world would be endless. She called
the company together, gave them a detailed
account of the awful scene of the night be-
fore. occasioned by the stupidity of the I'M
fortunate young man who would never
make actor She told of the terrible
dream she had had, in which some great
parsonage. unknown to her, had been foully
murdered before her eyes; how she had at
tempted his rescue, but without avail; how
he had fallen dead at her feet, his head,
from which his life's blood slowly oozed,
resting on her lap.
Two years after this occurrence Miss
Keene was playing at Fords Theater,
Washington. In the third act of the play
a sharp shot was heard in the stage box,
from which a man leaped, brandishing a
smoking weapon, and shouting: Sic semper
tyrannis" The audience and actors were
paralyzed. Miss Keene seemed to be the
only person who realized the situation. She
ran to the box. and in a moment the head
of a dying man in her lap, the red
blood ooZing from a CHASTITY wound.
THE assassin was my old boyhoods
friend, John Wilkes Booth; his victim,
