The Olive Oil Cure.

Sufferers from nerve disorders should
certainly try the olive oil cure, which
is most highly recommended to those
who have learned abroad to appreciate
the addition Of oil to salads. The very
best and purest olive oil must be OBJ
tanned, and one teaspoonful three times
a day is the dose if the victim Of neu-
ralgia, anaemia or disordered nerves is
in hurry to be cured Otherwise it is
recommended that the oil taste should
be cultivated by the addition of very
little to the salad taken once or twice
a day, to which a dash Of vinegar may
be added. so that the disagreeable taste
Of the oil may be almost completely
disguised. The patient should grad
ually lessen the vinegar and increase
the oil until it is so we'll liked that it
can be taken raw. It Is claimed for
olive oil, just as it Is for apples. that
it keeps the liver in good working Or
der, thus preventing rheumatism, rem
dering the complexion healthy and

glossy and abundant.-London Mail.

DEFY HARD LUCK.
Few Bits of Wholesome Advice
For the Pessimists.

tOF tne feSSlHnIStSs
Don't talk about your hard luck.
Refuse to recognize it. Refuse to be-
lieve in it, Scorn to whine about it.
Get the whine out of your voice, or 1t
will stop the development and growth
Of your body. 1t will narrow and
shrink your mind. 1t will drive away
your friends. 1t will make you unpOp-
ular. Quit your whining; brace up; go
to work; be something; stand for some
thing; fill your place in the universe.
Instead Of whining around, exciting
only pity and contempt, face about and
make something of yourself. Reach up
to the stature of strong, ennobling
womanhood, to the beauty and strength
of a superb womanhood. There Is
nothing the matter with you. Just quit
your whining and 60 to work.
If you continually talk about your
bad luck and moan about your i'll for
tune, you create for yourself an atmos-
phere Of misfortune which will certain
~ overwhelm you unless you stop in
time.
The man or woman who persistently
fears that such and such thing is not
going to turn out well Is enlisting pow
erful forces against success.-Boston

Mr.. Brodrick told the commons that

The Strike in Chicago.

Chicago, May 2.--Empl0yers OF iaDOl
In Chicago are more determined to have
interference by military in the teamsters'
strike. Mayor Dunno and Chief of Po'
lice O'Neil declare they have the situa-
ton well in hand and assert that there
is no need of interference on the part OF
Governor Dineen or of the President, fol
that matter.
John G.. Shemd, of the employers,
says the police are doing all in their
power, but matters have reached the
point where the police need assistance.
President bold, of the Labor Fedora
ton, and President Shea, of the team.
sters' union, have issued proclamation
to trades unions advising them to adopt
no means of violence under any circnm
stances and cautioning all the teamsters
to remain at their places Of employm Mt
until requested by the committee in
charge to leave. Union leaders main
tain that there is no need of soldiers and
say what scattered acts of violence have
been committed have been unauthorized
and probably done by persons in no way
affiliated with labor unions.
Fifteen hundred strike breakers al
ready in the city were reinforced by 500
more this morning. Agents Of the en-
ployers are enlisting drivers in nearly all
big cities. A majority of the strike
breakers are negroes. All the new men
are paid the union scale of wages and
assured that their positions are not tent
pOrary.
Money is pouring in from employers

in their fight. Associate employers here
not directly affected by the strike are
also giving fnancial aid.

that they must deliver goods to firms

of these concerns are the largest in the
