Not every headache is . sign of nsrv. ous break down.
 But. if you suffer often from headache that seems to re-occur at intervals. nerv- ous or brain trouble is very evident.
 Again, if you can't hold pen to paper without trembling or twitching. there's . screw loose somewhere.
 Or, if you seem irritable and cross without cause.
 All these are signs and symptoms.
 Not necessarily that you are danger ously sick-But. at any rate. sick enough to need Dr. Miles Nervine,
 The danger lies in neglecting tho slight symptoms.
 Some of these signs are sleeplessness. Dizziness. Probability. Loss of Memory. Fretfulness. Headache. Melancholy. Neu- ralgia. Muscular Twitchings.

CROSBY DEAD
 WHEN HANGED.
Correspondent Charges That Murderer Died En Route to Gallows But Officers
 Were Bound to
 Have Hanging"

The BatesviILe correspondent of the. Arkansas Democrat says that William Crosby, who was hanged at Batesville on Nov. 25, was dead before he reached the gallows, and that the people of Batesville are indignant over the matter. He says in part;
 When II o'clock came, the time set for the hanging in the official invitations, the sheriff de- ->cided that Crosby should be Eihanged, although the attending physician told him the man would probably die before he could reach the gallows, and in any event could not live more than one or two hours.
 But as they were bound to have hanging this only served to spur the sheriff and his aids to renewed activity, and so at ll:3O he was taken from the jail and pat in an omnibus with a number of guards and driven to the gal lows at the foot of Main street.
 He died upon the way, but as they were bound to have a hang iny' and as the crowd of several thousand that had come to town m lst not be disappointed, his lisap body, which had not yet as sumed rigor mortis, and could not be supported by men to ad- .iu 1t the moose, was strapped to a bo .rd, a moose placed around the n * and the poor lifeless clay pu shed off to dangle in the air in or Ter to satisfy the thirst for ve lgeance in the breasts of some of the relatives and friends of Je.f Morgan.

FAVORABLE FOR OYSTERS
English Royal Commission Reports That Danger of Typhoid Infsc-
 ton Has Been Exaggerated.

The English royal commission on sewage disposal has issued 8 report that should tend to allay the frequent "oyster scares" caused by the assertion that shell. fish are polluted and made unfit to eat by typhoid germs. They are of the opinion that there is not at present exact knowledge warrant. Ing such sweeping measures as the compulsory purincation of sewage before discharge, for there is nothing, they state, in the ap- pearance of shell1sh to distin. kuish those which have been ex. posed to sewage contamination from those which have not been 70 exposed.
 The denial of the validity of bacteriological examination as . test is very important, for this test has rested on the assumption that the bacillus coli communis, or other allied organism, does not normally occur in the oyster. Over 1000 oysters taken from the pul. est waters and from beds obviously liable to pollution were examined and the bacillus coli was found in nearly all of them, from whatever laying they were taken, though IS a rule a very much smaller mum. Der of bacilli was found in those from pure than in those from polluted waters. The commis. sioners say:
 elf it should be seriously con tended that the mere presence of bacillus coli, or colilike microbes, in an oyster should condemn it. few oysters would probably es. cape condemnation"
 Concerning the possibilities of the communication of disease by shellfish, they state that there is a prima facia probability that at times living typhoid bacilli might be conveyed by shellflsh to the con. sumer and produce enteric fever, experience confirms their views that the extent to which the ill. ness is actually conveyed cannot he determined, the present state of knowledge on the subject not making 1t possible to make au 10 surate numerical stateMeAt

INDEPENDENTS,
 BABY CONTEST,

Here is the proposition and the rules governing the contest:
 There is a handsome $25.M solid gold locket with diamond setting and solid gold chain, on display at the Palace Jewelry store, to be given away Decem- Der 24th, 1904, to the baby boy or girl under two years of age, who wins the highest number of votes as the prettiest and sweet est baby. Now the baby thatis not pretty is surely sweet, and if the wee tot be a little cross at times, beauty must offset this badness. Fond parents at least are expected to think their ba- bies are both sweet and beauti- full, and so they do. But to set- tie once for all the claims of the under two, and put at rest this rivalry of mothers and fathers, the Independent has inaugurated a contest that is to be determined by that cherished right, popular ballot, and in accordance with the following rules:
 BABY PRIZE CONTEST RULES.
 First-No baby that has reach ed the age of two years Nov. l, 1904, is eligible to this contest, nor shall any employe or party connected with this paper be eli gible to vote.
 Second-Every issue of the Daily and Weekly Independent from November 1 to December "A, will contain a ballot entitling the holder to one vote in this contest. For every dollars worth of job, work, advertising and subscription paid for between these dates a coupon good for ten votes will be issued, but no cou- pons will be issued for sums less than $1.00. Coupons will not be sold, and will only be issued for job, ad and subscription busi- ness, but extra copies of the h. dependent at 2 cents per copy, each containing one ballot, will be sold at this office.
 Third-All votes must be sent to this office and will be de- posted in a lock box, to be opened at 8 o'clock each publication day and counted. The daily issue of that afternoon will contain the total of the several candidates and the public will thus be kept informed of the voting each day.
 Fourth committee of three good business men will be select ed to canvass the ballots the morning of Dec. "A and announce the winner. All ballots must be deposited at this office by II a. m., Dec. 24, 1904.
 Read the rules carefully.
