Are You
Sick?

Much sickness is due to
a weak nervous system.
Yours may be. If it is,
you cannot get well until
you restore nerve strength
Your nervous system is
natures power house; the
organs Of your body get
their power from it. If
the power is not there, the
action of the organs is
weak, and disease (sick-
ness) follows. DR.. Miles
Nervine cures the sick
because it soothes the
irritated and tired nerves
and gives the system a
chance to recuperate.
Try it, and see if you do
not quickly feel its bene-
fetal effect.

YEAST Is A PLANT.
But 1t Can Be Seen as Such Only
With the Microscope.

out It IAN DO oeen as Sucn Cnty
with the Microscope.
Yeast is small plant which can be
seen only with the aid of the micro
scope. says Good Health. There are
two varieties, wild and cultivated, for
these tiny plants can be improved
through cultivation, as larger plants
can be.
Firms which make yeast for the
market must grow these plants quite
as carefully as the florist grows his
flowers. Care must be taken that they
do not become mixed with other varie-
ties. therefore destroying the culture.
In some laboratories where yeast is
grown two separate buildings are kept
for this purpose. These are both care
fully disinfected. and IL 1t rs found
that the yeast becomes contaminated
in one building the culture is started
anew and the other building previously
disinfected before moving into it.
This plant, like bacteria, requires
warmth, moisture and food. The mate
rails out of which the bread is made
should always be warmed, and the
dough should always be kept in a
warm place. The temperature most
favorable is about that of the body. a
little less than 100 degrees.
There is always considerable mois-
ture in bread and >'enty Of food for
the plant The food which it requires
Is sugar. This it obtains from the
wheat, there being some sugar in the
-four. and more sugar is also formed
from the starch.
AS the yeast plants feed upon sugar
they break it down into two sub
stances, alcohol and a gas known as
carbon dioxide or carbonic acid gas.
AS the gas Is formed 1t is held by the
gluten. which is q very elastic sub
stance. When the bread is put into the
oven the heat expands the tiny bub-
bles of gas. causing the bread to rise
or to become much lighter. The alco-
hol formed. being volatile product
passes off into the baking.

March q, the Nine Hour Law,
Affecting Photographers
Will Go Into Effect.
THE INDIANA SITUATION.
THERE WILL BE AN INCREASE IN
THE NUMBER OF TELEGRAPH
ERS AND THE BILLS FOR TELE-
GRAPHERS WILL INCREASE.

With the taking effect March of
roads to place their telegraph oper-
ators on a nine-hour schedule there
will be. according to Richmond tele-
graph and railroad officials, an unus-
ual demand for telegraph operators
because the law will nece estate in
many offices, especially in those
where two men are now employed, a
relay OF three men in order to carry
on the work. This is especially true
of block towers, and careful esti-
mate places the number of these tow
ers in Indiana at 400. 1t is estimated
that fully 500 more operators will be
required on the fifty-five roads Oper-
ating in this state under the new law.
The railroads fear the sudden effe ct
of the law and sought recently to have
the Interstate Commerce commission
extend the time when the law shall
become effective in order to give them
time to train operators or procure eX-
perienced ones. The Interstate Com
merce however, held that congress on
1y has this power. Word from Wash
ington is to the effect that up to the
present time no proposed legislation
In this respect has made its appear
ance in behalf of the railroads, al
though a form of bill has been pro-
posed.
To Increase Pay Roll $27 100000.
According to the statements made
at the hearing on the question before
the Interstate Commerce commission,
the railroads of the country are facing
the proposition of putting $4,000 addi-
tional employees on their pay rolls.
They say it is impossible to obtain
these good telegraphers, although it
was shown to the commission that it
will be possible to obtain them if the
salaries Of the good men are placed at
$50 month. With new salaries add
ed to increased salaries to old en-
ployes, which are bound to come, ac-
cording to both railroad and telegraph
officials, 1t is said the bills Of the rail-
ways for telegraphers will be increas-
ed $27, 000, 900 annually.
In Indiana there will be an increase
III lIldu III every Ten Oll Ille ldI ger
roads and fifteen on the smaller roads.
There are in excess of 5000 railroad
telegraphers in the state. Under the
law a shift of three men will be I'M
necessary where but one man is need
ed. This man can be required to
work thirteen hours if necessary.
Train dispatchers in Indiana are al
ready working but eight hours. Last
August the Vandalia and the Penn
sylvania roads arranged their shifts at
their Indianapolis terminals so as to
provide for three men.
The salary question in this state
will not be determined until the new
law becomes effective and the extent
of the demand becomes known. A
number of the roads took on CONNER
cial telegraph operators during the
strike last year, and have been carry
ing them in preparation for the new
law.

The Lakeland News just about
voices our sentiments when il
says "The Florida Railroad
Commission has made an asiuine
ruling that the railroads cannot
exchange mileage for advertis-
ing space in the newspapers.
They might as well hold that a
grocer or dry goods man must
not sell goods to- a rublisher and
accept advertising in payment
There are a great many things
that the Railroad Commission
could undertake for the benefit
CT the people of Florida, but
they pass these matters of real
Importance by to interfere with
a purely private business trans,
action with which neither they
nor the public are concerned.
So far as we are advised, the
railroads are not paying the
attention to the ruling.

be sustained IN the courts.

was the good nature which
