Are You Tired, Nervous
and Sleepless -?

Nervousness and sleeplessness are u.s.
ually due TO the fact that the nerves are
not fed on properly nourishing blood;
they are starred nerves. DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery makes pure,
rich blood, and thereby the nerves are
properly nourished and all the organs OF
the body are run as smoothly as machin-
ery which runs in oil. In this way you
feel clean, strong and strenuous-you are
toned up and invgOrated, and you are
good for whole lot of physical or mental
work. Best of all, the strength and in
crease In vitality and health are lasting.
The trouble with most tonics and med
icInes which have large, booming sale
for a short time. is that they are largely
composed of alcohol holding the drugs in
solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red
blood corpnscles, and in the long run
greatly INJURIES the system. One may feel
exhIlarated and better for the time being,
vet in the end weakened and with vitality
decreased. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery contains no alcohol. Every

Traps For Tigers and Panthers.

An ingenious trap for catching tigers
and large black panthers is used by the
natives Of an isolated part of Indo-
China. A short length of a tree log is
followed out, and around each end Of
1t are driven long sharp spikes so as to
project inward. leaving an opening Of
about six inches. Through small
trapdoor pariah dog or a pig is placed
in the log for bait and the trap left for
future developments. The tiger or
panther easily pushes in his paw to Sc
cure the bait. but when he tries to
withdraw it it is impaled on the sharp
spikes, and he is trapped.

In Vinol the system clogging, nau seat
ing oil is eliminated, and the medicinal,
curative elements known to exist in the
cod liver are administered in II highly
concentrated form, therefore, q prepare
ton containing all these medicinal. cura-
tive and body building elements, free

In Vinol you know what you are taking,
for everything it contains is named on the

This is why NinOl is so unqualifedly

to veterans from other cities to arrange
their ''sets' for an old-time Southern CO.
tillion and Virginia reel which will be led
by General Stephen D. Lee and Mrs. Gene
raj Braxton Bragg on the night Of Thurs
day April 26th. II is desired that each To-
cality make up its own set so as to be pre-
pared to participate in the biggest single
dance ever given in the South. The old
ST. Louis Hotel which is Immediately OPP
posite the reunion hall has been fitted up
with 5000 cots, with. electric lights and
other eonveniences, all OF which will be
free to the veterans. The railroads have
made reduced rates to New Orleans for the
occasion and from the present outlook the
indications are that the attendance will
exceed even that Of the big reunion held

Board to at once use judiciously
the fund for the purpose indica-
