MOST POPULAR NUMBERS.
Seven and Thirteen Are Fixed Upon in the Minds of the Greater
 Number of Men.

"Ask a man to pick out some num- Der between one and ten. and you can tell him nine times out of ten what number he has selected. though his se- lection is made mentally" said man who, according to the New Orleans Times-Democrat. is fond of the old things. land when you come to think of it, the task of naming the correct number is not a difficult one. In the course of an hour the other day asked ten men t., think of certain number-any number between one and ten-and would tell them what num- Der they had fxDd their mind on In nine cases out of ten was correct missing 1t only once. The minds of nine of the persons selected the mum. Der seven. and one of them selected nine. It is not difficult to understand why the mind should run to the mum Der seven. Even in the case of tha man who fixed his mind on the num- Der nine, he told me whom 1. was all over that his mind had first run to seven. but he quickly changed to nino without knowing just why it was that he changed. Seven is the most prom inent figure between one and ten. It is the most popular number in the line, and Is associated with more things than any other number, and 1t is quite reasonable that the mind should light on seven. made another test tho other day with i've persons. askingeach of them to write some number between one and ten, and give 1t to sixth per- son. When the slips had been handed to the sixth man said: Seven Is the number on each of the slips
 Correct" said the man to whom they had been handed, and the i've men were a bit bewildered for the moment by the fact that they had all liit upon the same number, and that I was able to tell what the number was It would be quite as easy to name a number between 10 and 20, though I have made no tests along this line. dare say that 13 would be the flrst number to flash in the mind. simply because 1t is the most talked of, ard the only number between 10 and 20 that has the widest association. So you can tell there is no trick about it.. and 1t doesn't require any knowledge of the occult philosophies."

AN OXEN CAVALRY CORPS.
Natives Queerly Mounted for Police Duty on the Island of
 Madagascar.

The oldest cavalry in the world is maintained on the west coast of Mad- aeascar by Governor General J. c. Gal- lieni. While the French troops in that country are ample to meet the occa- sional revolutionists. the governor gen. eral makes use of native talent for po- lice work in out-of-the-way localities, says the New York Herald.
 On the west coast of Africa Is a tribe of natives. possibly radically connected with the Hovas. who arc known as the Sakalova, the most war like tribe of the country. The natives. in imitation of French troopers, or ganized an oxen cavalry corps. under command of French officer. They are armed with modern long-handled iances, or spears. and side arms. Their uniform is khaki. with skull caps. They ride barefooted, without stirrups, sitting on their equipment, cinched like a saddle, with cords made of tss native fiber plant, and sort of bridle of the cord, passing through the nose of the beast
 The oxen are neither slow or scared, and it is assumed would create havoc with their horns among horse cavarry.

EXTENDING BOUNDARIES.
Some of Our Larger Cities Have An nexed Ground Far Into Adja-
 cent Farm Lands.

According to . recently issued census bulletin, the real rank of cities is not d. ways indicated by the order In which they stand in tho tables Of population. Some great centers have considerable part of their massed population lying outside the municipal boundaries. Bos- ton is good example; about 1.200, 900 people live in sight of the state house dome, and less than 600, 900 of them arc governed by the Boston mayor; Othsr cities have annexed far into the farm laads of tho adjacent country. says Youths Companion.
 It Is customary to speak of the popula- ton of a state. ''in proportion to its size." Such . comparison is seldom made of cities. although 1t might not be .uninterestfng. Pittsburg. for example, has population of third of . million on 1s.000 acres of ground: New York's population. little more than ten times as great, spreads over nearly IF times as many acres.
 Chicago was long famous for tts an. nexation habit, but since 1890 New York 5u0S 00AVAC0 muCn A4OA0 JOEEAtVIy Lu4n Chicago's total area. New Orleans has a slightly larger area than Chicago Each of them covers six times the area of Baltimore.
 Washington, which occupies the Nary land part of the ten miles square set aside for national capital, is a fair- sized city as area goes, for this genera tion. Itmay seem small a century hence although it looked abundantly ample for all the purposes of urban development when laid out.
 In the case of cities, as we'll as of other corporations, consolidation is plainly one of the tendencies of the times. More than one-third of those in the United States have added to their territory by annexation since 1890. Townships and counties are occasionally subdivided, by reason of local interests, but the cities seem to be steadily pushing their boun- daries outward. There are some eco. homie reasons for this. but the reason In many cases has been the desire of their inhabitants to make a good show Ing"

Tired Nervous

When you feel languid, tired, nervous and irritable, your vi- tality is low-your supply of nerve energy exhausted, and your system running down for lack of power,
 The organs of the body are working poorly, or not at all, and you are not getting the nourishment needed. This soon impoverishes the blood and in- stead of throwing off the i'm purities, distributes it all through the body. This brings disease and misery.
 Feed the nerves with Dr. Miles Nervine, a nerve food, a nerve medicine, that nourishes and strengthens the nerves, and see how quickly you will get strong and vigorous.
 My wife suffered with nervousness previous to recent attack of typhoid fever, but after her recovery from the fever, she was much worse, and could hardly control herself being exceed ingly nervous when the least excited. She was very restless at night, and never had a good nights rest. She also suffered much from nervous head ache. Dr. Miles Nervine was recom- mended by a friend After the first three doses she had a good nights rest, and at the end of the first weeks treatment she was wonderfully i'm proved. Continued use of Nervine has completed her entire cure.
