Where the symptoms of heart disease and
weakness are present together with those OF
nervous trouble, much benefit may be oe-
rived from the use of both Nervine and Heart
Cure. The Nervine quiets the weary brain
and brings sweet sleep, 1t brings the needed
oourishment to the nervoss system, restores
nerve-force, vitality and energy. The action
Of the Heart Cure is equally beneficial II
aids the good work of Nervine by enriching
the blood, improving the circulation and by
it, tonic action steadying and restoring the
heart beats or pulse to their normal activity.
sSome years ago while I was connected
with the Western Nebraska Conference as
Presiding Elder, was so overworked that

spells Of heart palpitation and smothering,

enlist permanent resting place in the
grounds of the institution which he
founded?" The very justice of the
proposition almost warrants one in
regarding it as foregone conclusion
that this step will be taken. The coun-
try is justly proud of the Smithsonian
institution, and if the funds at the
disposal of the directors are INSULT
cient to accomplish what is now pro-
posed it is highly probable that con-
gTess will be asked to make an ade-
quate appropriation. Washington
should be proud to contain the tomb of
James Smithson.
While scientists all over the country
are interesting themselves in this
question, the Washington papers and
the issues of Science are printing let
ters from all sorts of people urging
that the country to which Smithson
left his entire fortune "to promote the
increase and diffusion of knowledge
among men, should show itself CRATE
full. A letter from Gilbert H. Grosve-
nor closes with the words: He left
no descendants to care for his re-
mains; let US accept them as a sacred
trust and bring them to the United
States to be deposited with all rever-
ence in the institution which bears his
name"
Smithson died in Genoa on the 27th
of June, 1929, at the age of rs. By the
terms of his will his property of about
$60o,oO0 was left to his nephew, then
to revert to the nephew's sons, with
the further provision that if he should
die childless the fund should be used
to endow just such an institution as
now exists. The gift was accepted by
act of congress in 1886, but it was ten
years later before the institution was
actually founded. In 1867 the fund was
increased to 81, 100000 by congress.

LABOR TROUBLES.
Striking Teamsters Assault
=, -,
Non-Union Men.
A Day OF Excitement at Toledo, o.
-Four Successive Attacks Made
Gov. Nash VIII be Asked
TO Call Out State
Militia.

Toledo, March 11.-After four sue.
cessive attacks had been made yes-
terday on non-union teamsters by
striking union men, a member of the
Toledo Carriage association declared
that he would make application to
Gov. Nash to-day to call out the state
militia to protect the men. Yester-
day was one of the most exciting in
the city's history, nor is the excite-
ment abated by the strikers declara-
ton that a general strike will he
called and that no Toledo freight will
be hauled by teamsters in any part
of the country.
The trouble began at noon when an
enraged mob of 400 strikers and sym
pathizers followed truck through
the principal business streets, en-
deavoring to knock and pull from his
place a non-union driver.
The mob also attempted to do vio-
lence to Manager Turner, of the
Moreton Truck Co. In whirling
around a corner the truck was over
turned and the next instant the non
union driver and manager were IN
the pavement, with the mob on top of
them. In the melee the two objects
rant, where Mattresses screened
them from and defied the bowling
mob that was at their heels until the
police interfered. The police escorted
the fugitives to safety, but then gave
notice that any further provocation
! given the strikers would be the fauit
of the employers; and they would
not interfere hereafter.
Later the report was received that
an attempt had been made to throw
a ''scab" driver into the river, but
had been frustrated by the police
Not half an hour later another non
union driver was torn from truck
in front of the Noreton truck Office
and, at the point of revolver, was
compelled to run for his life. A sim.
liar fate befell non-union teamster
within block of the police station
Police Sergeant Conway, the only
officer detailed to watch the case
says that the employers precipitated
the trouble by threatening to brain
any union teamster who attempted
to climb on one of their trucks.
