Even before Adam persons had
always wondered where the soul
was Prof. .Jastrow explained.
BY the time Babylonians came
upon the scene it was. in a
sort of indefinite way, believed
to be in, the liver. When the mayor
of a Babylonian town or some other
politician died, and his friends wished
to say something good of him, they
put on his tombstone the Babylonic
characters meaning, He had good
liver" Babylonians were deeply inter-
ested in the welfare of their lives.
Later the heart, being the seat of
organic life, came to be regarded as
the seat Of consciousness. Stoics be-
lieved in this theory, and it was not
until the Greeks and Romans found
that the source of emotional life was
in the brain that the Stole belief died
out. In modern America many tkeor-
les have come into prominence dur
ing the last generation or two, but
these were touched upon very lightly

In battle with rats, Abraham
Hunsberger, of this place, killed %
which had attacked him, while as many
more escaped. When the fight began
he struck at one huge gray rat with
the hoe; the animal squealed, and in
an instant the loft was full of rats,
which attacked Hunsberger, grabbing
at his legs and tearing his trousers
with their sharp teeth, others jumping
on his back and swapping at him.
Hunsberger dropped the hoe, fright
ened, and endeayored to get out of the
loft through trap door. The door
had caught" and, finding he could
not get it open he again grabbed the
hoe, and, with part of the handle as a
weapon, fought the infuriated little

TREATMENT INDUCED A CHILL.

something like this: In camp one

Gus it is, but it's a big one, for it

All a Matter of Doubt. Anyway.

A young man from the south who,
a few years ago, was so fortunate as
to be enabled to enter the law Offices
of a well-knowh New York firm, was
first intrusted with a very simple
case. He was asked by the late
james C. Carter, then a member of
the firm, to give an opinion in writ.
Ing. When this was submitted, it was
observed by Mr.. Carter that, with the
touching confidence of a neophyte,
the young southerrer had begun with
the expression: II am clearly of
opinion"
When this caught his eye, he
smiled, and said:
my dear young friend, never state
that you are clearly of opinion on
law point. The most you can hope
to discover is the preponderance Of
the doubt Success.

Do not make the mistake of thinking
that these are diseases in themselves
and be satisfied with temporary relief.
This is the way the nerves give warn
ing that they are breaking down. It
simply means that the blood has become
impure and cannot carry enough nourish-
ment to the nerves to keep them healthy
and able to do their work.
Rest, alone, will sometimes give the
needed relief. The tonic treatment by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, however, pre-
vents the final breakdown of the nerves
and the more serious diseases which
follow, because the pills act directly
upon the impure blood, making it rich,
red and pure.
Mrs. E. O. Bradley, Of 1903 Parsells
avenue, Rochester, N. Y, says:

years ago, when in q rundown condi-
ton, suffered nervous shock, caused
by misfortune to a friend. 1t was so
great that was untitled for work.

and pains in the back and spine.
Il was treated by two doctors, being
under the care of one of them for six
months. l got no relief and then de-
cided to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills. I
soon began to feel better and the im-
provement was general. Ny appetite
became hearty and my sleep better.
The headaches all left and also the pains
in my back. A few more boxes entirely
cured me and was able to go back to
work. l felt splendid and as though /

in such diseases as rheumatism, after
effects of the grip and fevers, neuralgia,
