NERVOUS COLLAPSE
IS OFTEN PREVENTED BY DIR.
 WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
Taken When the First Warning Symp- toms Are Noticed Much Needless
 Suffering May Be Saved.

Taken When the First Warning Synnp-
 toms Are Noticed Much Needless
 Suffering May Be Saved.
 Are you troubled with pallor, loss of spirits, waves of heat passing over the body, shortness of breath after slight exertion, peculiar skipping of the heart beat, poor digestion, cold extremi- ties or feeling of weight and fullness? 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. B. 0. Bradley, of 1o3 Parsells avenue, Rochester, N. Y., says:
 "l was never very healthy and some years dSO, Wleu III d run -QOWQ COnQl- tion, suffered nervous shock, caused by misfortune to friend. It was so great that was unftted for work.
 ''I was just weak, low spirited and nervous. 1 could hardly walk and could not bear the least noise. My appetite was poor and did not care for food. I couldn't sleep well and once for two weeks got scarcely an hours sleep. I had severe headaches most of the time and pains in the back and spine.
 C was treated by two doctors, being lnder the care of one of them for six months. l got no relief and then de. cided to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills. soon began to feel better and the im- provement was general. My appetite became hearty and my sleep better. The headaches all left and also the pains ill my back. A few more boxes entirely cured me and I was able to go back to work. l felt splendid and as though I had never been sick"
 pr. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable in such diseases as rheumatism, after effects of the grip and fevers, neuralgia, St. Vitus' dance and even partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.

In Europe guinea fowls sell for good prices. It is said on good authority that a poultry raiser near Leipsig has for years made a specially of these birds and has sold the product for an average price of 75c each. The same writer says that in Paris birds are sold in summer for soc and in winter for COG each, while the eggs bring twice as much as hens eggs. In the United Statees the price of guinea fowls varies greatly with the season, the locality ana the individual mar ket, but has in general advanced con siderably during recent years.

DOCTORS FOOD TALK
Selection of Food One of the Nest I'm.
 portant Acts in Life.

A Mass. doctor says: Our health and physical and mental happiness are so largely under our personal con- trol that the proper selection of food should be, and is one of the most im- portant acts in life.
 'On this subject, 1 may say that I know of no food equal in digestibility, and more powerful in point of nutri- ment, than the modern Grape-Nuts, four heaping teaspoons of which is suf- ficient for the cereal part of a meal, and experience demonstrates that the user is perfectly nourished from one meal to another..
 T am convinced that the extensive and general use of high class foods of this character would increase the term of human life, add to the sum total of happiness and very considerably inn prove society in general. I am free to mention the food, for I personally know of it's value"
 Grape-Nuts food can be used by babes in arms, or adults. It is ready cooked can be served instantly, either cold with cream, or with hot water or hot milk poured over All sorts of buildings and fancy dishes can be made with Grape-Nuts. The food is concentrated and very economical, for four heaping teaspoons are suffi- cient for the cereal part of meal Read the little book, "The Road to Wellyille.' in pkgs. There's 2 Req. rnn

PROFITS IN BEEKEEPING.
Of All the Pursuits 1t Is the Least Ex-
 pensive.

The latest authentic statistics from which We can estimate the profits in bookkeeping are the census reports made in the year 1901. According to these reports, as published in the Year Book for 1901, the aggregate value of bees in the United States, June l, 1900, was $10,1S6,513, and the aggre- gate value ef honey and wax produced for the year 1900 was $6,664,904 This shows a gross profit of about 651s per cent on the investment, a profit not excelled, if equalled, in any other pur- suit in our country. And this is the more significant when it Is remem- bered that of all the pursuits beekeep- ing is the least expensive.
 Assuming, which is reasonable, that bookkeeping has kept pace with other pursuits, there is now at least 25 per cent more bees in value than there were on June l, 1900 tor seven years ago), there would now be bees in this country amounting in value to S12.- 733, 3,141, and the gross annual income from which would be the sum of $S,331,1 130.
 In the reports above referred to, every State in the Union is represent ed and, as to profits, it is a notewor- thy fact that no one State has a very great advantage over aonther, and what advantage is shown seems to be the result of the mode of keeping the hees and not because of any climatic influence. The per cent of profit in Texas and Massachusetts is about the same, and the same is also true with reference to Wisconsin and Alabama.
 To beekeepers it is encouraging to know that their little pets are not re- spectors of climate or sections of our country. Whether north or south of Mason and Dixon's line, or on the chilly shores of northern lakes. or basking in the eternal sunshine of the South, they roll in golden treasure without stint for the human family.

Prof. Berg, in Buenos Ayres, has discovered a spider which practices hshlng at times. In shallow places it spins between stones a two-winged, conical net, on which it runs in the water and captures small fish, tad poles, etc. That it understands it's work well is shown by the numerous shriveled skins of little creatures that lie about in the web net.

Victoria B. &c. l.. Parsons, an

remarkable stories of happenings at

drops many degrees below zero. In
conversation he said:
Strange manifestations appear as

ice; the wood is gone, and we wonder

white cloud of smoke and vapor re-
sembling a steamboat in its Wilderness,
and this cloud of smoke streams away
for so or 100 feet, mingling with the
other white-gray mist or haze that re.
