at has been five years since | was cured of
heart trouble by your Heart Cure and Nerv-
inc, and | am just sound as dollar IN
that organ today. For several years ! had
been suffering with my heart. Breathing
had become short and difficult at times,
short, sharp pains about the heart, sometimes
accompanied with huttering would make
me feel faint and languId. The least excite
ment or mental worry would almost unnerve
me. | felt that the trouble was growing
worse all the time, and after trying many
remedies prescribed by physicians without
obtaining relief, | was induced to give your
remedies a trial. | was relieved the second
day, and after taking three or four bottles all
symptoms were removed and have never
showed signs OF returning. KEY. GEO. w.
kIRACOPE, Chincoteague, Va.
There are many symptoms of heart disease,
which SO closely resemble those of more COM
mon nervous disorders as to frequently mis-
lead the attending physician. Often in cases
Of heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liver or
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
NAV be those of weakened nerves, as tired
feeling, sleeplessness, timidity, the patient is
easily excitable and apt to worry without
cause. If you have the least suspicion that
your heart is weak study your symptoms and
begin the use of DIR. Miles Heart Cure, the
great heart and blood tonic, without days
delay.

Wilmington, n. c., April 49,
Northwest winds and clouds Satur-
day night and Sunday were all that
saved the fruit and vegetable crops
of Eastern Carolina. The farmers
feared that great damage would be
done, but the temperature kept we'll
above freezing and there was nc
trace of frost throughout the district
The snap has done practically nc
damage in this section, and unless
there is a frost Or freezing weather
ahead the strawberry and vegetable
growers will market fair crops.

NEGROES FOR MINNESOTA.
Booker Washington Will Estab-
Iish Colony There.

A dispatch from Duluth, Mimi, says
that an agent of Booker Washington
has made arrangements for the pur-
chase OF large tract of land in Bel
trami county, that state, for the pur-
pose Of establishing thereon colony
of southern negroes. Some of the
proposed colonlsts, it is reported, have
already arrived at the place. 1t would
be interesting to know if the promot-
ers told the colOnists that Minnesota
is a very cold state, in which winter
lasts for about as much as six months,
with snow on the ground most of the
time. The average negro has about
as much horror of cold ana ice as he
has of the proverbial lake of fire and
birthstone. And there is good reason
for it. Statistics show that in cold
climates the black man is particularly
susceptible to lung diseases.

SIGNS OF A MILD WINTER.
The Book of Nature Tells Us That
Season Will Not Be Severe.

The Philadelphia Inquirer says:
Cape May county residents who are
weatherwise agree that it will be 40
unusually mild and open winter.
70 substantiate their prediction
they point to the frail manner in
which the muskrats and squirrels
have constructed their winter homes.
Gels not only bedded themselves in
the mud late this fall, but did not go
nearly as deep as In previous seasons,
which indicates that the weather will
not be severe enough to make much
ice in the bays and streams.
While gulls are seen in small num-
bers on the marshes, where they usu ?
ally congregate in thousands. They
are wintering further north.
Crabs, which are usually bedded for
the winter long before this time, are
still living in the open waters. Gun
ners have found the ducks less heavy
of feathers than is usual when hard
winter is coming.
The varieties of fish which are gen.
eraly far saway in southern waters
long before this time are still fairly
plentiful in the waters off the coast.

AMENITIES OF GAMBLERS.
A Recent Homicide illustrates
Their Peculiar Ethics.

An incident illustrating the peculiar
ethics of the gambling fraternity was
the shooting and killing in New York
the other day of gambler of the name
of Roche. Another gambler of the
name of FELTON, Is suspected OF the
crime. On his dying bed Roche re-
fused to aid the law in avenging him.
"It die, - he said, sit will be all right
If live l will settle the matter my
self" At another time he declared:
eyes, Frank shot me, but he was iusti-
fed, for if he hadn't killed me would
have killed him." Such are the amen
tiles of homicide among gamblers. The
gambler, living perpetually in the
fear of the law, doesn't like to have
law interfere in his quarrels and
fights. Living by his wits, he prefers
all of his affairs to remain in his own
hands. He is willing to take chances
on everything that cones along,
hoping to get out on the general aver
age il he cannot accomplish it by
shrewd trick. This may be termed
reversion TO primitive and savage ma
ture, but il is the gam bler's nature.
