why HOT WEATHER makes WOMEN NERVOUS.
Suggestions BY DR.. Hartman---How
to Combat the Nervous Depression
incident to Warm Weather.

Nervousness Is very common among
women. This condition is due to anaemie
nerve centers. The nerve csntess are
the reservoir for nerve vitality. These
centers become bloodless for the want of
proper nutrition.
This condition is especially noticeable
during the warm season. Every sum
mer an army of invalids are produced ~
a direct result of weak nervous systems
This could easily be overcome by the
use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at the
root of the trouble by correcting th5
digestion. Perfect digestion furnishes in
creased nutrition for the neHe ceptreA
Perfectly digested food gives these reser
voirs of life vitality which creates strong,
steady nerves, and in this manner fortities
and nourishes life.

PECULIAR FREAK OF LIGHTNING
fore or Mans Shoes Without Ser.
iousIy Hurting Him.

Aiken, Special.-Pat MCGEE, negro
laborer employed on the farm of Mr..
Henry Summerall, near Aiken, was
struck by lightning during the storm
on Sunday night. McGee says he was
standing on his porch washing his
hands when the bolt came, and he
was knocked insensible for some time.
When he regained his senses he found
that the bolt had struck him on the
righ thigh and made burnt" streak
down his left leg and, leaving his body,
had torn his shoes off. 1t seems that
the electric fluid did not enter his body.
MCGEE will probably bear the scars OF
his first experience with lightning to
his dying day.
Fatal Work of Lightning.
Considerable damage was done by
lightning Sunday In and about Spar
tanburg. Addie Beden, a colored wo-
man, living near the city, was struck
and instantly killed.

An Anti-Sea.Sick Vessel.

Lieut.. Turc, of the French navy, has
after much study devised plan for
. ship the passengers on which will,
as he imagines, be proof against sea-
sicknesses. He has caught the idea
from the motion Of swing. AS q
general rule, vessels are only set roll
ing from ten to fifteen seconds at a
time, and rs his would have regular
swing of twenty-five seconds, he cal.
culates that the effect Of the waves
would thus be coanteracted. N. Turc's
model ship would be Of about 5000
tons burden, and would sail at a
speed of nineteen knots. All the
cabins would be we'll out of the water,
as they would be constructed on a
deck more than thirty feet above the
sea level.

CAROLINA SEASIDE RESORT.
WrightsviIe Beach Unsurpassed For
Health and Pleasure.

ICdikn dnQ TiCdob'S'
OF all the avenues open to the weary
and the overworked to seek few days
or weeks Of perfect quiet and undis-
turbed repose during the heated sum-
mer period, none are quite so inviting
as a stay at the seashore, where the
never-ending splash Of the waves OF old
ocean lull one, all unconsciously, to
perfect repose and utter forgetfulness.
Many seaside resorts are open, each
one with it's advertised attractions but
no other appeals so strongly to those
desiring an ideal spot in which long
or short vacation can be most satisfac'
torily spent, as the Seashore Hotel,
Wrightsvile Beach, N. c.
Nothing here is wanting that could
add to the comfort or pleasure Of the
most fastidious guest, whether that
guest be the monied prince or the Or
dinary citizen seeking a holiday, so
long as a capacity for realyenjoyment
is left Ali alike will find a welcome at
this magnificent resort, and each will
be famed impartially by the invigorat-
ing breezes that are the gratultous gift
from the bounteous Atlantic.
The Seashore Hotel has been en-
larged to three times its former ca
pacity, and no resort on the Atlantic
coast affords such charms to the health
or pleasure seeker. The management
delights to give it's guests the most per-
feet service and the greatest pains are
eXerted to make each feel ct home and
at ease.
This popular resort is reached by way
of the Seaboard Air Line Railway, by
means of a splendid schedule OF pas
senger trains, new one being contem-
plated that will leave Charlotte and
up-country points in the late afternoon
and arrive in Wilmington in the even
ing, carrying special parlor cars ana
f1rst-class coach accommodations. Ine
Seaboard system has become we'll
known factor in developing the resorts
of the South, and its schedules are ar
ranged with view to accommodate
its ever-increasing patronage in every
possible way.
No higher pleasure awaits the one in
need Of a vacation than stay at the
Sea Shore Hotel and a dip in the surf
that rolls so near its spacious piazzas,
and no need to seek further North-or
South, for an ideal place to spend ones
leisure than at this popular resort.

Pe-ru.na Contains No Narcotics.

One reason why Peruna has found per
manent use in so many homes is that il
contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna
is perfectly harmless. 1t can be used any
length Of time without acquiring drug
habit. Peruna does not produce temporary
results. 1t is permanent in hs effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-
moving the cause Of catarrh. There are ..
multitude of homes where Peruna has been
