Lucky the sufferer from nervous diseases whose symptoms are as plainly marked as those of Mir. Powell, as given below. Too often the symptoms are mistaken for some Arrangement of the digestive orgahS and the wrong treatment administered and continued until too late to make a change beneficial Too many doctors make the mistake of trying to cure the symptoms instead of the disease. Dr. Miles Ncrvine goes to the seat of the trouble, strengthens the nervous system, puts life and vigor into every muscle, every fibre, every tissue, every nerve cell. There IS noth- ing so good for the nerves as Nervine.
 About four years ago suffered fiom pains around my heart, and after the ly st exertion it would palpitate in such : aner as to cGose nc much distress. haG /. feeling of onrGessIon Tn ray chest, was nervous, could lot sleep, lost my appetititc and flesh, had pains in back and shoulder, my food did not digest and could not eat anything without causing distress. My feet were cold at times and I became exceedingly weak and all run down, l tried ten different doctors, one or two or whom gave me temporary relief. Fin ally saw that Dr. Miles Restorative Ner- vine was advertised to cure sufferers from such nervous disorders as mine and procured bottle. l am now permanently cured and cannot say enough for the Restorative Ner- vine. ."-H.

Since he won Miss Fannie he has won most everything else in sight, and has took to sail yachts again; using de steam yacht only for gailly-Sailly trips when Mss Fannie has parties to entertain What wit sailing and cruising, I'm getting so salt. and Duchess so peppery, and Whiskcrs so oily dst if dere was a little vinegar aboard we could be mixed up for q salad dressing.

New York Mail and Express. Under every mood in which I saw the city there was a deeper mood which was hard to define to myself, but which seem ed curiously compounded out of It's pathos and its sdualor Venice Is beautiful, and yet so pItiful. A city where the peoples of the world have hustled and traficked, that has been a greater mart and cosrTlo- polls and now is neither, is more pathetic in its decay than any other It Is like the lonely and desolate old age of a wo- man in whose salon the wits and beaux of vanished time had paid their court. It Is unreasonable that any sentiment of disrespect at its plight should arise, and yet sometimes I felt 1t. To vary the figure little, the spectacle of the fal- len bride had in 1t something tragic yet squalid, like the fate of a beautiful and high-born woman whom passion or mis- chance had dragged down to the life of the streets. I can understand the wish which Howells had expressed somewhere that the dead cities of Italy might all be walled up and left slowly to fall into ruins by themselves. Their present estate is not dignifed ,and the quest that brings the tourist to them comes near illustrat- Ing the indecency of curiosity.
 The worst of all, so far as Venice is concerned. Sis the feeling that the cup of It's humiliation is not yet full Those leaning church towers, those walls that totter out of plumb promise other chap ters in the story that began with the fall of Campanile. The sea which cradied Venice may some time be its grave. Lit tie by little you cannot but feel, these monuments will crumble and disappear as the rotten piles sag and snap under them. You shrink from presaging the calamitous and bitter day when every edi- flee shall have melted away into a mold ering heap. and the tides of the Adriatio as they sweep back and forth. will roll across the slime that was VenioeS
 Something of this thought came to me on my @ast morning there. when climb cd a tower only second In height to that of St. Marks, and looked down on the city and lagoons that encircled 1t. It lay there in the sunlight. beautiful, yet ruin ous, smaller than I had imagined-lndeed. about the size and shape of Manhattan Island below Canal Street From other towers the chimes were ringing, and the bells seemed to proclaim how completely the past was gone; how far removed the city from the track of modern commerce; how useless now the vantage that had made 1t great.
 am ashamed to say it, but the same sensation came to me that remember when I spent an hour in Coney Island after the summer was gone and the con- cert halls were boarded up and the Bow cry lights had been darkened-a desolate feeling quite divorced from dignity. It was depressing. and. believe me, was glad to leave Venice.

There is a sweet simplicity about the marriage rites of Burma. It devolves upon the woman to do the courting. When a maiden sees youth whom she thinks will Wlake a desirable husband she forth with offers him a stick of sweeameats. If he accepts her proposal he at once eats her offering of affection, and from that moment she is his wife. No further ceremony is necessary and witnesses to the contract are not required It is in the act of eating that this primitive mar riage rite consists. Supposlng that the youth declines the offer of marriage. he does so by assuring the girl that the sweetmeat is not to his taste and the maiden knows that she must seek e;se- where for some one who will appreciate the love which her offering betokens.
