Naples, April 16.-The somewhat
threatening condition of Mount We
suvius Saturday night having subsidized
with the election of enormous clouds
of sand and ashes, the elements have
begun to settle slowly, again envelop-
ing the mountain in a thick haze and
cutting off the view from Naples, only
the outline of the base being visible.
Prof. Matteucci, director of the Roy
al observatory on the mountain, issued
the following bulletin:
MY instruments are most calm
The emission of sand continues in
their abundant quantities and I wait
serenely satisfactory termination of
the eruption"
The sudden renewal of alarm Satur
day night gave way Sunday to the cell
ebration of Easter with unusual fer
vor. The festival is always pictur-
esque in Naples, but Sunday it was
doubly so. Cardinal Frisco, arch
bishop of Naples, celebrated an elab-
crate thanksgiving mass in the cathe-
dral, while along the streets crowds
Frustrated themselves before sacred
images.
The gravity of the situation has now
shifted to Ottajano and San Giuseppe,
where the recovery of the dead from
the debris goes on amid the misery of
thousands of homeless refugees.
A sensational development occurred
during the work of salvage at Otta-
jano when the searchers unearthed
two aged women, still alive but speech
less, after six days intombment. They
were among the hundreds who were
crushed beneath the falling walls dur
ing the rain of stones and ashes last
Sunday and Monday. Hope had been
abandoned of finding any of these per-
sons alive The women were
protected by the rafters of the
house which they were in and had
managed to exist on a few morsels Of
food which they had in their pockets.

FOR NERVOUS PEOPLE
A Michigan Mother Preserved to Her
Family by Or. Williams
Pink Pills.

When the blood is impoverished the
nerves starve and neuralgia or something
more serious swiftly follows. Nervous
people are generally pale people. By
supplying through the blood those vital
elements that the nerves need, DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People have
performed those remarkable cures that
make it impossible for any nervous suf-
ferer to neglect them.
A recent case is that of Mrs. Peter
Morrissette, of No. 315 Eleventh street,
Alpena, Mich, who writes as follows:
/" NY trouble started with childbirth.
After one of my children was born had
kind of paralysis. 1 was very weak
and my mouth was a little crooked. I
was always tired and was SO nervous
that could not bear to hear a dog bark
or bell ring-even the little bird i'll its
cage would annoy me. My heart fut-
tered great deal and had dizzy spells.
was not able to be left alone.
'My doctor gave me different kinds of
medicine, changing it several times.
When it was evident that he could not
help me he said he did not understand
my case. This was three years ago and
[ was very much discouraged, when my
brother, who had taken Dr.. Williams
Pink Pills, recommended them to ME. I
tried them and noticed q change for the
better when was taking the second box.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cured me and
have been we'll ever since. Inow do all
my own housework, sewing and wash
ing for seven of u.s."
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have also
cured diseases caused by impure or i'm
poverished blood such as rheumatism,
anamia and after-effects Of the grip.
All druggists sell DR.. Williams Pink
Pills or the remedy will be mailed, post

Photographic Novelty.

For producing the Photographic pos
tai card an apparatus is used In
France which records the human voice
upon a piece of pasteboard of the form
OF the card. According to one report
the phonocard possesses numerous ad-
yantages. The recording Of the voice
is done by an ordinary phonograph OF
simple construction, by means of
pencil with a sapphire point. This
pencil makes It's impression upon
suitable substance called "sonorine'
spread upon the surface Of the card.
The "sonorine," which can be easily
spread over pasteboard, possesses all
the properties of wax cylinder, and is
in reality the invention. The signs
are impressed in form of spiral, be-
ginning at the margin of the card and
ending in very small circle, and are
impressed so deeply that the stamping
by postal authorities can only destroy
two or three words. The card has
room for rs to 80 words. BY it's aid
people who cannot write may now SEND
communications through the post that
would be more easily understood than
the written kind.
