MExrco,s VOLCANIC pEAks.

There is something timely about the
earthquake shocks In Mexico. where
leading geologists lately attending a
worlds congress in the capital city
have been giving intimate study to the
many volcanic peaks of that country.
Indeed, this has been the feature of the
convention and a finer opportunity for
such investigation could not easily be
had. Craters large and small in
various parts OF Mexico have been
looked into and 1t, might even appear
that nature had become responsive to
these attentions. 1t may be that the
extraordinary earthquake manifesto
tions of the year have not yet reached
their end.-Springfield Republican.

When YOU feel languid, tired,

tality is low-your supply OF
nerve energy exhausted, and
your system running down for
lack OF power,
The organs OF the body are
working poorly, or not at all,
and YOU are not getting the
nourishment needed. This soon
impovcrishes the blood and in
stead of throwing off the i'm
purities, distributes it all
through the body. This brings
disease and misery.
Feed the nerves with DR..
Miles Ncrvine, a nerve food, a
nerve medicine, that nourishes
and strengthens the nerves, and
see how quickly you will get
strong and vigorous.
MY wife suffered with nervousness.
previous to recent attack Of typhoid
fever. but after her recovery from tho
fever. she was much worse, and could
hardly control herself being exceed
ingly nervous when tho least excited.
She was very restless Mt nisht, and

his opinion of the election returns
which show that Hon. o. A. Larrazolo
has been elected delegate to con
gress. Said Mr.. Prichard:
81 don't take any stock in these re
ports. Andrews was elected in this
election, and 1 will not believe any
thing to the contrary until I have
seen the exact figures. Andrews ma
jority will be considerably reduced
from what l expected, basing my
Judgment on the returns of the cleo
tion two years ago. l attribute the
loss in Andrews vote to the fact that
the party was not in full harmony on
the statehood question"
Replying to the inquiry for an
opinion on the result of the county
elections in the big Republican coun-
ties that have gone for independent
tickets, Mr.. Prichard said: 81 am
not surprised at the result of these
county elections. In fact, I could have
forecasted the result I do not think
the independent ticket will be elect
ed in San Miguel county, and if Luz
Zero, the Democratic candidate is
elected, it will be on account of his
personal popularity"
