It Takes
N erve

Everything depends upon
YOUR nerves. 1t is nerve force
that causes the brain to direct
the motion of your body; 1t IS
nerve force that causes your
heart to pulsate, and send the
blood through your veins; *
is nerve force that causes your
stomach to digest food, your
kidneys to filter the blood, and
the liver to secrete bile. s.
In fact, nerve force is the
power that runs your body, so
if you feel WORKOUT, irritable,
nervous, cannot sleep, or eat
well, have pain or misery
anywhere, yodr nerves are
weak, and your system run
down. To restore this vitality
take DR.. Miles Nervine which
will strengthen and build up
the nerves: You cannot be
healthy without strong nerves:
For eighteen years DR. Miles
Nervine ana Anti-pain Pills have been
nv close companions Early in mar
ried life, while raising children. my
nerves became all worn -out--could not
sleep; had no appetite: indigestion
very bad. and had such awful dizzy
spells. Then l began using Or. Miles
Neryine, and at once | began to i'm
prove. and soon found myself In
perfect health"

An Ideal Road.

The following thought has beer
expressed to us by citizen OF
considerable experience with pub
lie roads and their maintenance
and being full of merit we ven
ture its publication:
"What an ideal parish road the
new grade, leading from this place
to ROyvllle would make! Should
it not be used for railroad purposes
it would be a good idea for the
public to own it and use it as a
carriage highway"
This stretch of road bed EN-
braces 700 stations of one hundred
feet each, by careful survey, be-
tween New Iberia and Royville.
Such road would bring the two
points practically within the dis
lance of 134 miles, while the pres
ent carriage road necessitates q
travel of something over 20 miles.
1t has been graded considerably
above the surface with the posi-
bility of good drain way on
either side, insuring the crown Of
the road from rain floods. 1t
would therefore resist bad wealth
Or better than any other road in
this section and would not need
extensive repairs in years.
1t would be a direct route into
a section needing just such road
and would serve as q main artery
to dozen radiating highways.
1t would be an object lesson in
road building that could hardly
be obtained in any other way,
and it would add value to the
farms it served.
If abandoned it would, in al,
probability, b- plowed down again,
filling the grade bitches from
which the dirt was taken. This
would cost quite as much as it's
construction has cost, though pro-
badly the labor would be distri.
buted over a series of years. This
cost would represent a figure great
er than the land value ut the pres.
ent time.
1t would be one method of saw.
ing for good out of a great loss.
All this speculation, Of course,
is based upon the direful presump-
tion that the road will not be used
by the iron horse.
1t would make an ideal trolley
line into section that could east.
ly make such line pay.
There are possibilities for the
grade that are better than level
ling it again into agricultural land.

A Serious Question.


So disrcputbIc characters were
driven ont of Lake Charles 10y
"A long suffering and outraged
public. These characters, most
of them negroes, were hefded
and driven to the Southern Ia
cifc depot, where tickets were
bonrht for the bunch, sending
them beyond the borders of Cal
casieu parish
Though New IBERIA has never
deported 80 large a number at
one time. we have found that
public safety demanded that
a similar act be done, AZ an ex-
Incident, III order to save the
wrctches from harsher treat
men. AT the hands Of an lndlg-
nant people. Under these clrcum,
stances We cannot with good
grace complain OF the act OF our
western neighbor. But we would
humbIy petition, that should
future exigencies demand re
pitition of the ac', that our friends
divide the course Of this poilut'
ing stream of hnmanliy-dl-
vide tavOrs, as it were-and
not send such herd in any one
direction.
Some thirty five of these east
outs found new fields for thei
arts at Midland. Such numbe

town than had been the whole
deportation to Lake Charles.
Such a deluge is hard to bear.
Crowley was fore warned and
promptly refused to allow any
dcbarkations Of that class from
tho tram. The Attakapas towns
were all sleeping, probably.
Their dreams were not filled with
forebodings Of impending trouble.
But later developments brought
to light the character OF their
acquisitions of that night and
they are facing the problem.
Morgan City, SO we are credita-
bly, informed, has been the first
TO act and has found it necessary
to send away sixteen similar
characters. That they were all
of the Lake Charles herd we DO
know.
No students Of the race ques-
tons can but deplOre such en-
forced emigrations. That it is
the best method of dealing with
a criminal class is questionable.
The want of a legal and better
method is possibly it's only excuse.

UP TO LIGHT CONTRACTOR
Bidder on Gas Incandescents Must Care
for Service Pipes. -

The council committee on gas met
today to adopt specifications for all
kinds Of street lighting. There was no
discussion except over the proposition
whether the gas company or the bid
der on incandescent lighting should as
sumo the expense of caring for the serv-
ice pipes connecting the gas mains with
the riser pipes to the lamp posts.
Charles Patterson Of the Patterson
Street Lighting company explained that
It was often necessary to open the
streets in order to get at the service
pipes. He thought this work should
fall on the gas company.
r. r. Rand, for the gas company,
thought that inasmuch as the contract
ing company kept a force Of men at
work all the time to see that the lamps
are in order, the contractor should look
serts suggested l that It was We'll to hold
one company responsible for every.
thing, as division Of responsibility
would result in endless confusion. The
committee decided that the specifca-
lions should require the bidder to care
for the service pipes as well as the
g risers.
with incandescent attachments were
also adopted.

# CHAMBERS REMAINS FOUND.
Woman Dentist Was In tho Glass Of
1890, University Of Minnesota Ro-
nance and Story Of Elopement, Then
a Blank, Then Tale Of Wolves Do
vouring Her Body.

DR.. Edith Chambers, the adventurous
woman who was devoured by wolves in
the far north and whose remains have
Just been found and taken to Dawson
City by her brother, Professor Frank
Hewitt OF Chicago, was for several
years a resident Of Minneapolis, grad
uate Of the dental department Of the
University Of Minnesota. There are a
number Of Min3neapolis people who. re-
member her well, but who had lost sight
Of her, hearing nothing Of her wander
ings until the news Of her death was
published in The Journal two
years ego.
Only after two years. search, q
400 mile walk thru swamps and terrible
suffering did Hewitt find where his sis
ter last camped. He found only part
Of the skull and q few bones, and iden-
titled them by parts Of underclothing,
cloth, and shoe found 800 feet from
where she lost her life. She left home
July "a, 1901, and the remains were
found last September.
After stating that wolves devoured
his sister, Hewitt closes his letter by
saying (g -. ,,,mo,.d :. =. 49,, ), !,
trapper, but If so it must have been
very shallow, for I excavated every
mound about the camp. The second
day discovered the remains that were
left. The wolves had torn her to pieces,
leaving but little, but enough SO that
I could take the remains away for
burial.' ~
The gruesome details reached Van
couver and have just been wired here
from there.
Mrs. Edith II. White resided at a
boarding house at ST Sixth street s.
from 1887 to 1890 and attended the uni
versity, from which she was graduated
with the class Of 80. Her husband
John II. White, collector for the Min
neapolis Harvester works, was living in
the city at 807 Eighth street S, but
the pair had separated and the two
daughters were with Mrs. White. Mr.
White died in 1885,. After two years 81

Mrs. White, in company with mar
named Chambers, left her daughters
and went to Winona and later to Chi

they also fill long-re1t need by caring
for the sick among the thrifty, indie
pendent class, whose incomes are small,
but who can pay a small fee, perhaps
10 or Is cents, for visit from a pro-
fessional nurse.
The visiting nurses NOT only aim to
relieve the immediate suffering and dis
comfort Of their patients, but also in
struct, them in ways of caring for the
sick and how to avoid Illness The work
the last year has grown tremendously
and physicians and organizations are
more and more finding the nurses a
great help and almost a necessity in
their work. 20
It is hoped that this work will be sup
ported entirely by the women of Mime
apolis,s as it Is to them that 1t especially
appeals. One woman has entirely sup
ported one Of the nurses for the last
year. Any one who desires to contribute
either in a small or a large way, can do
so by sending checks or cash to Mrs. T.
