Recapturing DeserteIs.

Col 5. p Hege. OF the Baltimore and
Ohio. contracted with the Navy Depart
ment yesterday TO move deserter and
his captOr from St Louis TO Newport
+. l., where the captOr is to receive his
reward Of $50. and where the deserter Is
probably going to Jail for few months
II IS not the fate of the deserter, how
ever. that is the interesting part of this
article. The captor is the man.
For long time the Navy Department
has had the reward standing for the re
capture OF deserters, and in addition 10
the $50 the department pays the eX-
penses OF the man who made the cap
ture 10 the point from which the de-
serter fed.
Naturally this is fine outing, or pic
mic. for the CRATER" usually of the
private" detective or country sleuth
type OF policeman. The Navy Depart
ment pays the car fare. and for the
meals of the captor, gives him a berth
In a sleeper. and at the end presents
him with the $50.
As q rule the city policemen and de-
tectives are too busy TO make these
trips Consequently the "grafters. ."
those who have rendezvous where their
kind meet. which are called agencies. .
are continually on their mettle after the
fleeing bluejackets.
II is said that the recovery Of each
deserter costs the Navy Department on

WOMEN, WHY SUFFER?
Nervousness and Its Train of
Terrible Evils Permanently
Banished by
Paine'S Celery
Compound
MIs Clark Tells Of Her Happy Rescue
From Suffering After Failures
Of Physicians.

Nervous disorders and disease are on
the increase. and women are the chief
sufferers. Digestion gives out, there are
pains in the head, the tongue is coated
the muscles ache, there is constipation
heart palpitation, gloomy fears Cypress
continually, and sleep is broken and dis
turbed.
The only reliable remedy that medical
science has given to humanity for the
cure of nervousness, is Paine's Celery
Compound, prescribed by eminent physi-
clans with the happiest results. In
critical cases, Paine's Celery Compound
has saved life and restored health when
all other medicines failed. Mrs. F. A.
Clark, of Moscow Idaho, writes as fol-
lows about her success with Paine's
Celery Compound
'While suffering terribly from nerv-
BUSINESS and nervous prostration, l was
attended by several physicians but their
efforts brought no assuring results.

to sleep at night. My husband again
