Born That Way.
from Harper's Weekly.

From Harpers Weekly.
 A member of the House from New England tells of an occasion when he overheard an amusing eolloquy between the late Thomas B. Reed and d darky barber
 The "tonsorial artist" was inclined to be talkative. but to all his efforts at con versation the big man from Maine return ed only d monosyllable or a grunt.
 Finally the barber patted the cranium os the speaker whereon reposed one or two stray locks, saying
 De hairs gettin pretty thin; sah. Been that way long?'
 T was born that way" drily returned Reed.

Keep
 Your Nerve

It is nerve energy that runs the organs of your body. The storage battery is the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, and from this battery nerve force is sent out through the system of nerves. To keep the body healthy you must have plenty of nerve force; if you have not, the organs work imperfectly, the circulation is sluggish, digestion bad, appe- tite poor, kidneys inactive, and aches, pains and misery are the penalty.
 You can keep the system strong with Dr. Miles Nervine. It assists in generating nerve energy; it strengthens the nerves and makes the whole system strong and vigorous.
 I % take pleasure in .ree recommendins s,,sasIins from nervous prostration. insomnia and melancholy After several months suffering from above diseases I tried this medicine and found imme- diate relief. It soothes and strength ems the nerves, chases away the gloomy and depressing thoughts and gives the sufferer renewed strength and hope. It is a superb nerve re- storer."

4 IS nowhere shown more
~ clearly than in the Amer
can magazine of today.
One has only to glance at the be-
wildering array of names of maya
zines and he will see at once that the
comparatively small field once occu-
pied by the publishers of magazines
has greatly broadened. Not only
has the actual number of magazines
been more than doubled, but,
strange to say, the quality of a large
majority of them has been i'm
proved. which fact. together with
the addition of attractive covers and
artistic illustrations, has brought
about a revolution in the business.
One may today within the covers
OF these periodicals find the most
tempting array of literary food ever
offered to the public, embracing
every variety and every style both in
manner and matter, whether it be
serial story or novelette,, essay or
criticism, historic research or alb
struse' science, theological discus
sion or exegesis, poetry, humor,
dramatic news, or, in fact, anything
which interests humanity.
A glance at Our counter shows a
total of $50 different magazines on
sale each week or month, filled with
interesting matter on subjects Lit
erary and Bookish, Political. Re-
hgious, Sporting, theatrical, Musi-
cal, Medical, Scientific, as well as
Fashion and Society papers of many
kinds.
Our facilities are such that we can
take orders and deliver promptly in
any part OF the city Magazines and
Periodicals on the day Of issue.
We have also made arrangements
by which we take subscriptions by
the year, the magazines in this case
being delivered by mail.
Those wishing their favorite mag
azines sent them for the period Of
their summer vacation will find Our
arrangements complete in that par
ticular as well.
The new Magazine counter is a
revelation. Look at it.

executive oficer OF the board. the super
fPtendent at the close of>fhe meeting had
the entire testimony referred back to him

HAVE A RIGHT TO
MAINTAIN A BLACKLIST

OLYMPIA, Sept. 13.-The supreme
court has confirmed judgment of nom
suit from King county. wherein the
plaintiff sued for $4,000 damages and
proved only nominal damages in his
testimony. The court says that in or
der to go to the jury something more
than mere nominal damages must be
shown by the testimony of the plain
tiff:
The case was that of John Wood
house, doing business as Woodhouse
Bros, appellant, vs. J. B. Powles and
Mary L. Powles, as trustees. Appellant
owned a grocery store and bought from
jobbers who are members of the Seattle
Produce association, which blacklisted
merchants who did not pay as provided
by the rules of the association. Wood
house was reported delinquent by
Powles and dealer refused him credit
The reported delinquency was an err
ror. 1t was corrected but Woodhouse
then brought suit for $4,000 damages.
incidentally the supreme court holds
the association is legal and merchants
nave a right to maintain the blacklist.

Rich Strike Found by Canadian
Exploring Party.
NEWS sTARTLEs VANCOUVER PEOPLE
STAMPEDE FOLLOWS, EVEN Po-
LICEMEN RUSHING INTO NEW
ELDORADO.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Sept. 13.-The
Dominion government exploration
party, which has just returned from a
two years survey in the Peace river
country, brings news of a gold dis
covery which bears every indication
Of being the biggest thing ever struck
this side of the divide.
The mission on which the explorers
were engaged was the selection of
100000 acres of land which the prov
ince of British Columbia owes to the
Dominion government. In April Of this
year they discovered that a large dyke
of sedimentary slate, situated below
Fort John, seventeen miles on the Brit
ish Columbia side 6f the boundary, was
gold bearing.
An immediate stampede followed, ex-
plorers, mounted policemen and every
one else in the post fastened to stake
out claims. The members of the ex-
ploration party, headed by their chief,
A. j. Mcdonnell located seventeen
claims along the river, where the dyke
outcrops Members of the mounted po-
lice who are putting the road through
to Atlin also located claims
mcdonnell describes the dyke as be-
ing eight miles in length, as far as the
explorers were able to determine, and
he believes it extends back to the old
riverbank at the foot of the hills, in
half moon fashion, being nearly 5000
feet across at the widest part 1t ranges
from so to 200 feet in thickness. with
gravel above and below, being appar-
emily a deposit which hardened. The
rock is soft and crumbles freely in the
hand.
With the crudest kind of assaying
implements Macdollenn says the ore
showed a value of nearly $50 to the
ton He brought several samples of it
back to civilization, and will send it
to the ottawa university to have it
submitted to an accurate laboratory
test.
