would come handy for men who fish
and fight the possibility of ~snakebites

The Christian Catholic church in
Zion City was formally organized in

before a large audience he announced
that he was Elijah the restorer spoken
Of in Malachi.

Previous to this he marked out his

Eighteen months later Dowie began
the promotion Of q second Zion City in
Mexico. While engaged in this under

to Jamaica for his health. While there
he suffered a stroke of paralysis, from
which he never fully recovered.

1t was at this time that he appoint

lieutenant and general overseer of the
church. Voliva, by the power of at
torney vested in him by Dowie, had all
the property belonging to the church
transferred from Dowie to Overseer
Granger, charging extravaganza and
gross Encouragement by Dowie. He
also called a meeting of all Zionists
and denounced Dowie.
Nearly All Against Prophet.
With the exception Of less than 200
of Dowie's former followers, all in
habitants of the city chose Voliva as
their future leader and sent word to
Dowie that he had been deposed.

The Smyrna Town Council at
its last meeting reduced the tax rate
from As cents on the hundred dol
lars to 4 cents. The reduction is
slight aud was done to conform to
the law as laid down in the town
charter which prohibits Smyrna
from raising more than $4,000 from
its taXables clear Of all expenses of
collection and deliquencies. While
a reduction is always appreciated
it is nevertheless pity that Smyrna
Is forced TO such provisions. 1t is
an undisputed fact that the tax rate
is entirely too low for progressive
town such. as Smyrna should be.
Even at the maximum rate Smyrna
has all it can do to pay expenses
and come out clear at the end ot
the year. Such luxuries as mecad-
-emized roads, and well policed
streets, etc, IS simply out of the
question until the citizens of Smyr
ma apply to the Legislature for {
change of charter. We believe il
being economical and keeping the
tax rate as low as possible but WE
do not believe in doing it at the ex
pense Ofdepriving our town of tn,
advantages of up-to-date servic
and modern Improvements. Smyrni
can only attract by being progres
sive along all lines, and tax rat
that keeps "our nose down to tn
grindstone" does not admit of til
right kind of enthusiasm that help
a town to grow. The tax rat
should be raised for a while at leas
if for no other reason than to Civ
Smyrna good streets.

RUNNING UPSTAIRS.
u Causes an Excessive and Injurious
Strain on the System.

u Causes an Excessive and Injurious
Strain on the System.
Every one knows that the ascent OF
a staircase is more fatiguing than Ordi-
nary walking. In walking progression
is effected by a succession of lifts, in
clinations and swings.
In starting the body is lifted, for ex-
ample, by the levers of the right foot
and is inclined forward. The left foot
being then raised from the ground, the
leg swings forward and is carried by
its momentum beyond the right foot.
The levers of the left foot now lift
the body again, and the right leg
swings forward, and so the body oscil-
lates along ON a pair of pendulums.
Short pendulums vibrate more quickly
than long ones, and therefore short
legged people step quicker than long
legged people, though with no more
sense of exertiOn.
In going upstairs the mechanism OF
progression is of course the same, but
the lifting action, which is the real
force consuming part of the process, is
now greatly increased.
Instead of being just sufficient to ad-
NIT of the free swing of the pendulum
foot it must be so great as to project
the body up at each step a distance
equal to the height of the stair.
Running upstairs is thus an excess
i've strain upon the constitution, but
where does this strain fall? The levers
| of motion are moved Immediately by
the muscles, but the muscles cannot
| act of themselves.
| Their cOntractions and relaxations
take place only under stimulus They
are all connected by lines Of force, call.
ed nerves, with the nervous centers
and these are the sources of muscular
stimulation.
Not that the nerve force of the brain
is converted into the mechanical move
ment of progression, but nerve force Il
constantly drawn upon to maintain
the action Of the muscles, and thi;
draft is always greatest where there il
a sense of exertiOn.
When bodily vigor is high, the evi
result Of running upstairs may not b,
decidedly felt, but where there is de
bility of any Of the processes thi
strain cannot fail to tell in some form
or other with injurious effect-St
Louis Republic.

THE SHREW MOUSE.
Some Queer SuperstitiOns About n
Harmless Little Animal.

Some Queer superstitiOns About n
Harmless Little Animal.
The shrew. or shrew mouse. as it is
commonly called. is found in nearly all
parts Of the world 1t is distinguished
by an elongated. pointed muzzle, small
eyes. plantigrade. six toed feet and
glands that secrete a musky fluid. Al.
together it closely resembles a mouse.
but it is really not related to the mouse
family
When at home it Is either under a
pile of rubbish or in a hole which it
has burrowed in the earth. 1t is
nocturnal In it's habits, but perfectly
harmless. yet at one time it was much
disliked and prosecuted because it was
thought to be a dangerous, mischievous
animal Among the Italians the notion
was prevalent that the bite of a shrew
was extremely poisonous. The French
and the English believed that If a
shrew ran over an animals foot the
animal felt great pain and eventually
became paralyzed; hence IL a horse, a
COW or a goat became a little stiff in its
limbs the foolish people at once declar-
ed It "shrew struck" and the poor
shrews had to suffer in consequence.
OF course the "shrew struck" animal
had to have something to cure 1t, so
an ash tree was selected. and deep
hole was bored into its trunk. Then a
shrew was captured, put alive into the
hole, the hole was securely plugged
and the innocent little animal was left
| to die of starvation.
The ignorant believed that after suct
an act the ash tree had power to cure
"shrew struck" animals, and wheneveI
an animal became inactive or a little
numb in its limbs its owner hurried t.
the ''shrew ash" cut a switch from i
and switched the ''shrew struck" beast
The smarting caused by the switching
naturally made the helpless anima
move about as much as it possibll
could, and in a short time ii was pro
nounced cured.

Friday evening in passing a resolu-

MANY SUFFERERS

to perform, and on the regular execu-
ton of which depends not only the
general health of the body, but the
bowels of the stomach. Bowels, Brain
and the whole nervous system shows
its vast and vital importance to human
health when the Liver is seriously dis
eased, it in fact not only deranges the
vital functions of the body, but exer-
cises a powerful influence over the
mind aud its operations, which cannot
be easily described. 1t has so close a
connection with other diseases and
manifests itself by so great variety OF
systems of most doubtful character
that it misleads more physicians, even
of great eminence, than any other vital
organ. The intimate connection which
exists between the Liver and the Brain
and the great dominion which it exer-
