Nervousness is very common among
women. This condition is due TO
anemic nerve centers. The nerve
centers are the reservoirs of nervous
vitality. These centers become blood
less for want of proper nutrition
This is especially true. in the spring
season. Every spring a host of inyalids
are produced as the direct result ofweaA
nerves.

Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root Of
the difficulty by correcting the diges-
ton.
Digestion furnishes nutrition for the
nerve centers. Properly digested food
furnishes these reservoirs Of life with
vitality which leads to strong, steady
nerves and thus nourishes life.
Perana is in GREAT favor among
women. especially those who have voea-
tons that are trying to the nerves.

Just Determination in Railway Rates.
All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in responsible way
are likely to agree with President SAM
uel Spencer, Of the Southern Railway,
when he says: There is no division of
opinion ss to the desirability Of stop
ping all secret or unjustly discrimina-
tory devices and practices of whatso-
ever character"
Mr.. Spencer. in speaking of unjust
ly discriminatory" rates and devices,
makes a distinction which is at once
apparent to common sense. There may
be discrimination in freight rates
which is just, reasonable and impera.
lively required by the complex CON-
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have to
deal. Tc abolish such open and honest
discrimination might paralyze the in
dustries of cities, States and whole Sec
tions Of our national territory.
This distinction between Just and
unjust discrimination is clearly recog-
nized in the conclusions of the Inter
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
Tariffs should he based on commercial
principles, taking into account the special
conditions which bear upon the commercial
value of the services rendered. With the
reservation that rates shall be charged with
out arbitrary discrimination to all shippers
alike under like conditions. the making Of
rates SHOULD as lar as possible have ali tho
elasticity necessary to permit the develop
menr of the traffic and to produce the great
cst results to the public and to the railroads
themselves"
The present proposal is. as Mr.. Walk
er D. Hines. of Louisville, showed in
lis remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee IL
Washington, to crystalize flexible and
Justly discriminatory rates into fixed
Government rates which cannot be
changed except by the Intervention of
some Government tribunal, and by this
very process to increase the telnpta-
ton to depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order to meet

.nrci,, condition. New York sun.

A Hard Lesson.

Of all the lessons that humanity has
to learn in life's school, the hardest is
to learn to wait. Not to wait with
folded hands, that claim life's prizes
without previous effort, but. having
struggled and crowded the slow years
with trial, seeing no result such as
effort seemed to warrant-nay, perhaps
disaster instead-to stand firm at such
a crisis of existence, to preserve ones
poise and self-respect. not to lose hold
or relax effort, is greatness, whether
achieved by man or Woman.-Reformed

FORESTS DUE TO THE FCGS.
Peculiar Conditions Found to Exist In
the CONGO Valley:

the Congo Valley:
A peculiar climatic feature exists
in the southern part of the Congo val
ley for 10 degrees south Of the eQua-
tor. The rivers and lakes are found
to be bordered with a dense vegeta'
ton, which extends out from the va
ter distance proportioned to the eN'
tent Of the water surface. Adjacent
hills and mountains are often covered
with dense vegetation on one s1ae
and are bare on the other. Beyond
this bordering vegetation there are
plains, almost treeless or. with small
scrub growth and thin grass.
The explanation is given as fol
lows: From May to October there is
a dry season, with hot days and fair
ly cool nights (often so degrees Fahr-
enheit.) The evaporation Of the dey'
time is followed by condensation into
fog at night. This fog noistens the
country adjacent to the water sur
faces and causes a luxuriant growth
of vegetation. The morning winds
blow the fog against the exposed sides
Of hills and mountains and up the val
leys Of tributary streams. Wherever
the fog IS not carried the country is
dry.
The natives reflect this character
istic Of their hills by shaving of their
hair from one side Of their heads,
Dense forests are found where the
fogs prevail, while out Of range OF
this moisture there is only e sparse
vegetation.
