NERVOUS FROM DRINKING;
TAKEN TO POOR FARM
B. Murphy Witnessed Some Horrible
Sights While Affected With DeIer-
ium Tremers Last Night.

/ Clad in nothing but pair of
pants and a light flannel shirt, with
no shoes on his feet and his head un-
covered, wild-eyed individual
startled number of men who were
working on the road in Nymore, at
about 3 o'clock this morning, by
asserting that he had seen a boy
killed by a number of men and put
through hole in the ice on Lake
Bemidji; and that there we're a num-
Der of men after him, bent on taking
his life.
The unkempt appearance of the
man, together with his wild state
ments, caused some fear among his
hearers, and Marshal Glidden took
him in charge.
The bare-footed pedestrian was
questioned more closely and it was
ascertained that he had been STOP
ping at the Lakeshore hotel, in this
city. Inquiry was made at the
hotel, with the result that it was
learned that the mans name was B.
Murphy; that he had been drinking
quite heavily of late, and that he
was in the midst of an acute attack
of nervousness, bordering on delirium
tremors, and was in fact seeing
things .
Murphy was taken in charge by
the authorities, who sent him to the
county poor farm, where he will be
given an opportunity to rid himself
of, the effects of too ardent an
appetite for strong stuff" Should
this not bring his mind back to an
even balancing, it is possible that
the probate court may take his case
in hand.
When he first appeared in his
scanty raiment, Mulphy's statements
were made with such .candor and
apparent seriousness that they caused
considerable of sensation.
Fortunately he was taken in charge
before being badly frozen. AS it
was, he was 'nipped" somewhat by
the frosts.

A .feman's Complexion

1t is rank foolishness to attempt
to remove sallowness or greSsiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or ''local" treatment, as advocated
by the ''beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that a woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, purifes the
complexion 1t also cures consti-
patton, biliousness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case of dyspepsia
and digestion New trial size bottle

Mans Precious Rib.

A young lady having asked sur
geon why woman was made from the
rib of man in preference to another
bone, he gave her the following gallant
answer:
'She was rot taken from the head
lest she should rule, nor from his feet
lest he should trample upon her, but
she was taken from his side that she
might be his coz; :: from under his
arm, that he mght protect her; from
near his heart, that he might cherish
and love her.'-Houston. Chronicle.

his work in the shop, young Fulton
applied himself to portrait and land

that he was enabled to keep his wild

a farm on which he placed her. He
then went to London to prosecute the

of Bridgewater who was then inter-

Fulton was induced by that gentleman
to give up painting altogether and to
devote himself to civil engineering and
invention.
In the next few years Fulton invent
ed an incline plane for supplanting ca

ing marble. a machine for spinning
fax and another for making ropes.
, He also wrote a book on navigating
canals and another on the application
of steam to navigation. At about this
time he attracted the notice of Edward
f.. Livingston. United States minister
at Paris. In response to an invitation
Fulton went to that city, where he
soon invented submarine boat, which
he vainly tried to have adopted by the
French, British and American govern
ments. After his failure in this at
tempt he returned to his dream of
steam navigation and invented small
boat which successfully navigated the
Seine. Livingston was so interested
that he advanced money to Fulton to
come to America and build a steam
boat for the Hudson. The result was
the Clermont, from whose first trip
between New York and Albany dates
the beginning of a new era in the
water transportation of the world.

years old at the time and lived only
eight years longer, having been worn

very poor and had shown little of the
wonderful oratorical ability which aft

Of such place was therefore a sore
temptation Webster, however, decid-
ed not to take it, stating that he in
tended to say things himself, not sim
ply write things that other people said.
He began practicing in small New
Hampshire town and remained a citi-
zen of that state many years before
he was finally discovered and in
duced to locate in Boston. When Web
ster first tried to speak, he failed and
burst into tears This was while he
was still in school. So shy was he that

| overcome such defect, and it was only
| the fact that he felt his own great pow

His first efforts were ornate and high

| he had enough common sense to recog-

profit by it. He resolved never again
to indulge in mere oratory for it's own

something to say.

prodigious worker. When in school,
he was given a hundred lines Of Vir-
