PARTIAL PARALYSIS
NAY BE ENTIRELY OF A FUNO-
TIONAL CHARACTER.
1t Is Not Necessary to Accept Il as
Hopeless Since There Are Many
Well Authenticated Cures.

There is absolutely no way Of reach
ing the nerves with medicine except
through the blood. The nerves receive
all of their nOuTishment and support
from the blood which, under healthfUl
conditions, carries the elements needed
to rebuild wasted nerve tissue.
Let the blood become deranged and
deficient in these elements and the
nerves viii be badly nourished and
headaches, neuralgia, sciatiCa, func-
tiOnal paralysis and host of other ner-
vOUs troubles may result.

WHEAT IN HANDS

Bureau of Statistics Defends

Criticisms.

Washington, July ie.-In answer to the
criticisms against the bureau of statistics
Of the department of agriculture because
OF the aIleg ID inaccuracy of its report on
March s, last, on the amount OF wheat
on farms, d statement was issued today
by the bureau defending its estimate.

about 1A.O00O00 bushels of wheat on farms
on March /, 1893. This was challenged
as being much too large. The statement
SAYS.

"Of these, about 100000 bushels are
