Power OF Imagination.

Illu. trating the strange power
of the imagination, E. F. Benson,
author of "Dodo," tells this Incl
dent. A doctor he knew had found
it necessary to give a patient for
many evenings an injection of
morphia to enable him to get
some sleep. After while the
doctor thought il advisable to
stop the morphla, and for two
nights his patient was unable to
sleep, OWING to great pain. On
the third night the doctor, beng
still unwilling to administer NOR
phia, injected PLAIN water instead.
The man slept perfectly and
awoke in the morning with what
is known as a morphine mouth.

makes them drink quantities OF
hot water. This should ne taken
at intervals of every two hours,
and as hot as can be drunk with
out burning the tongue and
throat.

COLD KIIdIs THE GERM.
Lieut.. Perry Says There Are No Bald
Heads in the Arctic Region.

The people who come back from
Klondike testify to the fact that no
native bald heads are there. The evil
denee is that the cold climate kills
the germs that eat the hair off at the
root. Lieut.. Perry, who went to the
Arctic Regions, gives the same evil
dence. Newbro's Herpieide has the
same effect as the cold climate. 1t
kills the germ that eats the hair of
at the roots, and the hair grows
again. Herpicide is the first hair
remedy built upon the principle of
destroying the germ that eats the
hair off. Its phenomenal sale demon
strates the correctness of the scalp

Board of Public Works Released Con-
tractor From Contract and Re-
turns Guaranty Check.
ORDER NEW BIDS SUBMITTED

Round one in the fight of the ILL.,
nois Central railroad against the city
over the improvement of Water
street was won by the railroad yes
ferday afternoon when the board of
public works released Contractor T.
J, Sale from his contract to make the
improvement for s1,376 and restored
to him his guaranty check of 500.
New bids were ordered and il is
certain now that they will be higher
than any of those previously submit
ted, because any contractor who bids
this time will do so with the full I'M
derstanding that he will have to sue
the railroad for his money. He will
know also that his guarantee check
will be forfeited If he tries to with
draw, The bids will be received
July z.
Contractor Sale agreed to sign the
contract IL the city would guarantee
to him his money in any suit that
might arise, but this the board of
works was not prepared to do. Other
contractors present said they would
bid again, but with higher figures.
This will mean that the railroad will
have to pay more for the improve
ment than they would have paid to
Contractor Sale. IL they lose the suit.
City Buyer Ed Miller was ordered
TO contract for all the city horse
shoeing. tool sharpening and similar
stems, in the same way he buys other
city supplies.
The board notified the Southern
Bitulithic company to sign the con-
tract for the Broadway and Jefferson
street improvements from Ninth to
Eleventh streets, Immediately SO that
the streets will be completed by cold
weather.
Bids for the Tenth street improve
ment, paving and pavements, will be
received July z. It is for one block
between Broadway and Kentucky

went to Farley Place with Mr.. G. w.
