FEvER'S After EFFECTS
Did Not Disappear Until the. Blood
Was Renewed by d. Williams
Pink Pills,

Typhoid fever is sometimes called ner
vous fever. During the course Of the
fever the nerves are always profoundly
disturbed, and when it is over they are
left SO sensitive that the patient has to
be guarded against all excitement. In the
tonic treatment then demanded. regard
must be paid not only to building upflesh
but also to strengthening the nerves. A
remedy that will do both, make sound
flesh to repair waste and give new vigor
to feeble nerves, is the most convenient
and economical" Such q remedy is DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
One proof Of this is the experience OF
Mr.. Charles Worth, of East Vassalboro.
Maine. He says: I had a severe at
tack of typhoid fever late in the fall
which left inc very weak aud debilitated.
My heart palpitated, my breathing be-
came difficult after the least exertion aud

such death and desolation to the pretty
island of Martinique and its thousands
of gay and doubly doomed inhabitants.
The titanic activities of the eruption
at the time caused it also to disappear.
On October Is, 1902, it stood out, q
sharp spine or thorn against the sky
at the very summit of the mountain,
and was noted by the members of the
French scientific commission. At the
end of November it had reached q
height of 800 feet, in spite of the con-
slant crumbling and falling off of the
rock at its top. !
On November 10 nearly 900 feet Of
it fell from the main structure. The
loss was soon made good. With the
rising of the tower the mountain about
it. increased in height, billowing up
into a great irregular cone. Tower and
cone together attained an absolute
height of 1900 feet above the old sum-

steeple when at its utmost height,
stood out against the tropic armament,
when the ash clouds of the eruption
permitted it to be seen, as landmark
visible for leagues about. But in the
early days of July, 1903, the same
forces that pushed it outward and up
ward began to tear it to pieces. Be-
fore the middlepof the month half of
it had been blown to bits, lying about
it's foot. During the second week in
August another 100 feet O.: it's altitude
disappeared. +
AS the tower itself dwindled the
mass below it began to rise in vast
domelike mound. From August 10 to
August II It gained IS feet in height.
From August 20 to August % it rose
l64 feet, and on the two days follow
ing SO feet more. On September 9 1t
lost so feet, just as it had gained Is
feet in a single day-August 30-31.
Power like this leaves the mind be-
wildered. To realize it, note the pic
ture from a photograph taken by An
gelo Heilprin, of the Sheffield scientific
school, of Yale university, on June Is,
1903, and published in his new book,
"The Tower of Pelee." Note the man
ner in which the rock at the base 81
the tower, here showing 500 feet of its
height, has been raised and pushed
aside. And remember that within

a mass of solid rock larger than the
great pyramid of Egypt, the tower at
Mount Pelee, in Martinique, was the
wonder of the world for little moee
than q year. ~
1t was the core Of an old volcano

gap in some old and forgotten erup.

it broadened down to the base, where
it was pushed upward by the mighty
forces of nature beneath, rising at
the rate of 40 feet a day until it. at
tanned it's full height, more than 5000
feet above sea level. H..
AS it rose, the point crumbled.
Huge pieces fell from it's top and
sides. 1t is estimated that its height
would have been more than doubled
had it no> been for riffs running
through it, whereby steam Ia explo-
sive quantities was conveyed to its
very summit, there to watt off in the
trade winds a banner of white trailing

Think of the forces, unseen and
seemingly undirected, that could push
this mammoth obelisk from its firm
place in the mountain upward into the
heavens! AS it rose it pushed the
living rock aside, as child might
push his finger through q mass of
putty. On each side great mounds
arose as it trended upward, piling
about it's base, which covered $4,000

will be 272 feet long over all and at
it's highest point more than 60 feet
above Piney branch. At the present
time $4,000 is available for prelimi-
nary, work ON the structure, but con-
gress has authorized the commission
ers to enter into q contract not to
exceed $4,000. With this sum it is
thought, 3 bridge rs feet wide can be
built, though it is planned to increase
the width of the bridge to 10 feet as
soon as traffic on Sixteenth street ex-
tended warrants the additional ex-
pense.
For the present the bridge will be
completed at the width Of Is feet, to
appear as nearly as possible like q
finished structure. The span of the
bridge will be 125 feet long.
The Piney branch bridge will be en-
tirely of concrete, with all spandrils
hollow. The flooring, also of concrete,
will be 10 to IL inches thick and will
be supported by the outside spandril
walls and by inside steel columns. The
columns and abutments are planned
of the cellular type, the earth fill of
the approaches being entirely on the
outside of the abutments.

Fruit Trees Not Ornamsntals.

f. All trees are divided naturally into
two groups, the useful and the orna-
mental. The useful trees are those
that bear fruit. These must be Sc
verely trimmed and pruned to keep
down the volume of wood 30 that
fruit production may be encouraged.
It is useless to; attempt to use fruit
tree as an ornamental, with rare ex-
ceptions. The amount Of pruning re-,
quired dishgures it, and II such prun-
ing is neglected a small, crop OF fruit
will be the result Therefore the
practice sometimes followed OK plant
ing fruit freezes on lawns should not
be encouraged. 3

While some were willing Others did not
approve of the it and some even argued
that The tax woald continue to be levied
and If no member of the families of those
buried were alive to pay the tax the
plots could be seized and graves desc

those who visit the cemetery at the pre-.

it would have been. One cannot expect

plots should go over the whole cemetery
