Gambling is the chief source OF COM
mercial disturbance. We do not mean
the gambling that stakes a wager on
a game, or race, or some other like
chance result. That is bad enough,
but 1t affects only the participants.
We mean gambling in trade, in crops,
In stocks and securities. This species
Of gambling creates two powerful ano
opposing elements, neither of which
can succeed without defeating the
other. Their wagers hinge upon each
others defeat, and as the goal in ev.
cry case is price, up or down, 1t muSl

business must unSettle prices and

This is almost as clearly defined in
the So.called stocks as 1t is In agricul-

usually founded upon some Industrial
or productive enterprise. Their value

terprises are, therefore, very liable to

How to
Get Well.

Every organ OF the body is
directly connected with the
brain by nerves. The nerve
cells in the brain generate
nerve force-power-and send
it to the organ through these
nerves, and this nerve-force
gives life and action. The or
gans work perfectly when there
is sufficient nerve power. Lack
OF nerve force weakens the ac-
ton OF an organ and it works
imperfectly-becomes sick.
Two-thirds of all sickness is
thus due to weak or deranged
nerves; it is therefore advisa-
bic to take DR.. Miles Restor-
alive Nervine, because it makes
nerve energy.
When you cure the nerves
you remove the cause. and
that's the way 10 get well.
