Persons With Nerves"
Suicide is the 6Aal symptom of a
disease worse than consumption, says
DR.. Herman Hilfreicht in the st. Louis
Post-Dispatch. The disease is hyster-

of women, though in the books it is
called a female disease"
In its first symptoms hysteria oper-
ates from the tip of the tongue and
shows itself either in the high key OF
the voice or in what is called violent

Ii is a certain indication that the
nervous system is so far disordered
that for a moment or FIVE minutes or
for longer period its disorder de-
stroys self control.
Those who allow themselves TO be-

their nerves into the hysterical condi-

THE STORY OF
REXALL "93" HAIR TONIC.

Before placing RExALL "o3" HAIR
Tonic on the market we realized
that we had formula of exceptional
value, and yet we determined to give
it thorough trial before we offered
it as Rexall preparation. We there
fore wrote to one hundred druggists
in as many cities, asking the name of
one customer who suffered from a
disease OF the hair and scalp. To
each of these customers we sent
three bottles of the hair tonic and
asked them to try it and report
upon it.
THE RESULT: Five reported no
answer, two reported adversely and

Want. Longer Auto Race.

Carl q. Fisher OF Indianapolis has
suggested TO the managers Of the Or
mond Beach Fla.) races that a race Of
from 300 TO 500 miles be added TO the
programme. One objection to a race Of
such a distance is that the tides will
not give wide stretch of beach for the
time needed to finish such an event.
The hundred mile race, therefore. will
be the limit OF long distance speed

out In the ranks Of the National Live

tion Of whether or not railroads and

governing the board OF the association.
President Hagenbarth was in favor
of the plan and urged it strongly.
Those opposing the idea assert that the
railroads and packers have, by work.
ing together, deprived the western
stockmen Of good prices for their cat
tie; that their interests are not iden-
tical and they should not be allowed to
have a voice in the management Of the
affairs OF the stockmen.
Those who advocate the plan declare
the wider scope Of the organization re-
suits in greater power and differences
disappear In a community Of interest.
The plan of reorganization was re-
ferred to a committee OF three for each
industry affiliated in any way with the
raising OF livestock. The committees
met as whole tonight and win report
