Are You Tired, Nervous

Nervousness and sleeplessness are rs
uaily due to the fact that the nerves ara
not fed on properly nourishing blood:
Lhey are starred nerves. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery makes pure.
rich blood, and thereby the nerves are
properly nourished and ali the organs Of
the body are run as smoothly as machin-

work. Best of all, the strength and in
crease IN vitality and health are laSting.
Ihe trouble with most tonics and med
fcineS which have large, booming sale
Tor short time, is that they are largely
composed OF alcohol holding the drugs in
solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red
blood eorpuscles, and in the long run
greatly Injuries the system. One may feel
exhilarated and better for the time being,
yet in the end weakened and with vitality
decreased. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
discovery contains no alcohol. Every

H[VFIRE BOAT LAUNCHED
Cataract, New Steel Protector,
Slides Down Ways.
MISS CLANCY SPONSOR
Daughter of Fire Chief Names Craft
Which Will Cost $4,000 Com
pleted-Arrives Here Soon.

MANITOWC, Wis, Dec. 2.-[Spe-
ial.l-The launching of Milwaukee's
new fireboat, The Cataract, at the yards
Of the Manitowoc Dry Dock company,
took place this afternoon. A delegation
of eighty-ive from Milwaukee, headed
by Y. j. Schoenecker, Jr., of the board
of public works, arrived in the city at
12:35 and after a dinner at the Will
liams house proceeded at once to the
shipyards. j. w. Gunnell, superintend-
ent of the Dry Dock company, had per-
sonal charge of the launching.
Boat Will Cost $4,000 Complete.
The new boat, which will cost when
completed, $4,000, is JOG feet over all,
50 foot keel and "a feet in depth, with
moulded depth of IL feet. The boat is
equipped with two pumps which will
throw 5000 gallons of water per minute
and has an engine of 500 horsepower.
Steel plates encompass her for ice-break-
ing purposes. She has a speed of thir-
teen miles an hour and will be delivered
at Milwaukee in three weeks.
A new feature of the boat is that it
is equipped with telescope water tow
er, extending 40 feet above the deck,
capable of throwing a 219-inch stream
in an almost vertical line. The Cataract
is the first steel boat to be equipped
with this water tower and it is expected
to be of great value.
Miss Clancy Names Craft.
The boat left the ways at o'clock
and Miss Blanch Clancy, daughter of
Fire Chief Clancy of Milwaukee, broke
a bottle of beer incased in a network of
silver when the boat touched the water.
Fire Chief Clancy was also here. I'm
mediately following the launching, the
Milwaukee party were guests of the
Manitowoc Drydock company officials.
