AFFLICTED WITH NERVE"

AFFLICTED WITH NERVE"
 It is not to be wondered at that so many women are afflicted with nerves when the constant, daily hurry and worry in which they live is considered. There seems to be an increasing pro- portion of women who go all to pieces If a fire-engine goes through the next street. who scream and jump on chair if they imagine they see a mouse run across the floor, whose hearts thump if spoken to suddenly, and who in many other ways evidence their excitability and total lack of self-control or pre- sence of mind. These women are al- most without exception of the class who f1atly refuse to eat proper food at regular intervals. The self-abuse of women in the matter of food is a very grave matter, and one for which they are already paying a terrible penalty. It is probably quite safe to say that the great majority of women and girls who go out to daily employmeint eat high ly unsuitable breakfast-a cup or two of improperly made and therefor injur- ious coffee and hot roll or gem. This Is all the breakfast hundreds of busi- ness women eat. Then at noon very few have either the time or the money to partake of such lunch as they might like; they hastily bolt butter cakes and coffee or some other of the we'll know quick" combinations, and at night they are too tired to digest square meal.
 The mother who stays at home all day doesn't eat a proper lunch because she is alone and often because she spells her appetite by tasting the dishes she cooks.
 Another reason for the prominent nervous characteristics of many women is that they do not guard their nerves or feelings. but yield to them on the slightest provocation and the habit quickly develops. If a woman misss , train she does not sit ouietely until the next one comes: she passes rest lessly back and forth, inwardly worry ing and fuming and thus using up ner- vous energy instead of storing it away for an emergency when 1t may be need ed
 Then these nervous women keen LID their nerve practice even after they go to bed. Instead of immediately empty Ing the mind of every thought they fall to reviewing worries of the day and planning for fresh ones on the morrow, wasting an hour or more when they should be sleeping, and wearing their nerves still nearer the point of ex- haustion and total collapse.-Mary White in the American Queen,

among all fair-minded folk, farseeing as it is, it cannot hope to meet with uni- versal support It does not. It is in- tensely disliked and bittely disposed by the military authorities and their party adherents. who are lacking neither in numerical strength nor in the power of making their voice heard.
 Still undisturbed by this turblent sea of antagonisn. Gov Taft pursues his plan of conciliation without the abate- ment of one of it's details. And it is pleasant to note the eagerness with which the Fflipinos are taking to the new order of things-learning English and accustoming themselves to the various phases of American life. Pass ing a large, well-lighted building, whence crowds of Filipinos, young and adult, were issuing by the hundred, the writer stopped to ask if it was the wind up of a mass meeting or adjournment of convention. "No, senor," came the reply; this is a night school where American is taught. No speak Aneri- cano no get job" One of the most polite acts of the Philippine Commiss- ion was the setting aside of December 30 as an insular holiday-Rizal day-in conmemoration of the assassina tion by the Spainards of Dr. Rizal, the Filipino patroit. This following long series of useful concessions, has delighted the Filipinos, f1attered their national pride and endeared to them the commission and it's popular chief.

PHILIPPINE PROGRESS.
Affairs in the Islands Considered by a
 Hong Kong Paper

Affairs in the Islands Considered by a
 Hong Kong Paper.
 The constant example of American methods of municipal, provincial and general administrations, says the Hong Kong Press will tend to produce from among the natives acting at the moment in a subordinate capacity an intelligent and highly body of admini- strators ready for preferment as oppor- tunulties for such arrive. The evolu- tion will of course, take some time to accomplish-a nation. like Rome of old, cannot be born in a day. Nations differ from poets in nothing more than in this they are made, not born. The policy best adapted to give fruition to these desires is being followed by Gov. Taft and the Philippine Commission. More and more responsibility is being laid upon the shoulders of Filipinos, just as they prove themselves capable of bear ing the weight. But, while this policy is and should continue to be popular

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP
Cured by One Bottle of Cham berIaim'.
 Cough Remedy.

''When had an attack of the grip last winter (the second one) actually cured myself with one bottle of Cham berlain,s Cough Remedy" says Frank
 ". Perry. editor of the Enterprise. Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest truth. I at times kept from coughing myself to pieces by taking teaspoon full of this remedy. and when the cough ing spell would come on at night I would take a dose and it seemed that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would go to sleep per- fectly free from cough and its accom- panying pains. To say that the remedy acted as a most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply because I had never tried It for such purpose, but it did, and it seemed with the second attack of coughing the remedy caused 1t to not bnly be of less duration, but the pains were far less severe, and had not used she contents of one bottle before Mr.
 Grip had bid me adieu." For sale by III druggists.

the ship left for the European station and that, within one week after she sailed, every one of the twenty men re- ported back to the receiving ship Co., lumbia at the Brooklyn navy yard. Why?
 A brief quotation from the last an- nual report of the surgeon-general of the navy will suffice to explain. In his report on .he Albany Surgeon Andrew R. Wentworth says:
 "The past year has been one of some uneasiness to those interested in the health, comfort and general welfare of those on board, as it has been thought that, owing to certain defects, which had been previously reported upon, the health of the ships compIe- nent might be seriously affected. The objectionable features alluded to in the report of last year should be borne in mind and remedied as soon as practica- ble, and the installation of a system of artificial ventilation, especially for the berth deck, should not be lost sight of, as that part of the ship and store rooms remain unventilated, when it is necessary to close the ports at sea, or in very cold weather. The distilling plant, in it's present position, adds much to the discomfort of not only those in the wing passages, where the temperature was often from one hum dred and twenty to one hundred and thirty degrees Fahrenheit, while in the tropics, but to the entire berth deck. am of the opinion that the health of those remaining for long periods and subjected to the foul air of this deck would become affected"
 This is the temperate language of 8 navy surgeon in his annual report. The men on board the Albany were very bitter in their complaints as to the poor accommodations and, when the orders came that the Albany was to leave for another six months cruise, without a ventilating system of any kind. they were sorely disappointed. An examination of the quarters showed them to be stuffy, uncomfortable and much too small for the number of men on board. Steerage accommodations in a Transatlantic liner were palatial in comparison. Plans for the necessary ventilation system for the Albany have been drawn up for some time and no reason is known why it could not have l been installed before sending the ship out on another cruise.
 The twenty men who left the ship 1 because they found life on board insup- portable were fined several months
 pay and reduced to fourth class, which means the abrogation of all privileges, 1 including that of shore leave. In addi- 1 tion, some of those who had been gone few days longer than the others were
 given bread and water and placed in
 irons while awaiting trial. This, of
 course, is only one instance, and it does
 not follow that it is common one, but
 it is neglect of this kind that discour-
 ages the men and induces them to de- sert.
 The poor food served on some of the
 ships since the introduction of the new
 system of a single mess has also caused
 some trouble. Where the commissary
 yeoman does not know his business,
 and it takes some time to learn it, sup plies will run short and the men suffer
 the consequences. This trouble will
 probably be done away with as the
 men and officers adapt themselves to 1 the new regulations.-Broo Eagle.

 Three hundred and sixty-six deser- tions from the navy for the month of March, a rate which if continued will bring the total for the year to exceed four thousand or fifteen per cent. of the navy's entire enlisted strength, is the appalling record for which the Washington authorities are seeking an explanation At this rate it would seem to be a matter of only six or sev- en years before the navy will have lost its entire enlisted strength. It is some what reassuring to note that, during the same month of March, eighty-six men who had previously deserted re- ported back for duty and 1,290 new men were enlisted into the service. Last years total of assertions was 3,037, not including about a thousand bad con- duct discharges.
 The fact remains that the number of marine assertions has increased to a point where it calls for an earnest in- vestigation to determine why it is that In the navy, where the men are better paid, better fed and supposedly better $rootaH ff9 rryary cb taking into consideration the propor- tionate enlisted strengthens many de- sertions. as from the warships of any two European nations.

His Last Hope Realized.

(From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont)
In the FIRST opening Of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this pa
per was among the many seekers aft
er fortune who made the big race one
fine day in April. During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim, he encountered much bad
weather, which, together with the Sc
we're heat, gave him a very severe diar-
rhoea which it seemed almost impos-
sible to check and along in June the
case became so bad he expected to
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle Of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about and in few minutes the dose
was repeated The good effect of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour the patient was taking his
first sound sleep for a fortnight. That
one little bottle worked a complete
cure, and he cannot help but feel
grateful. The season for bowel dis.
