A failing tiny nerve no larger
than the finest silken thread takes
from the heart its impulse, it's pow
er, its regularity. The Stomach also
has it's hidden or inside nervt. It
was DR.. Shoop who first told us it
was wrong to drug a weak or failing
Stomach, Heart or Kidneys. His
prescription DIR. Shoops Restore
tive is directed straight for the
cause Of these ailments these weak
and faltering inside nerves. This.
no doubt, clearly explains why the
Restorative has of late grown Sc
rapidly in popularity. Druggists
say that those who test TIE Resto1a-
tive even for a few days soon be-
come fully convinced OF it's wonder
full merit. Anyway, don't drug the
organ. Treating the cause of sick
ness is the only sensible and success
full way. Sold by II. ]. Pier.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 11.-After call
ing attention to the increase in
insane patients and convicts, Gov.
Sheldon, in his farewell message Sat
urday, asserted that society was JUS
titled in adopting laws for preven-
ton He said:
Society is justified in adopting
such policies and in carrying them
out against individuals as will in the
long run tend to help elevate and
perpetuate the human race. Care
less and ill-advised marriages have
had great deal to do in increasing
The dependent class and causing un-
told misery.
In order to prevent the confirm
ed criminal and the incurable insane
from producing offspring l suggest
that you give careful consideration
to the necessity of passing law pro-
viding for the sterilization of that
class of people.
Governor Sheldon also asserted
that the time had come for a rigid
county option law.

SPORTS
Selee Won't Mix.

Frank Selee, the well known base
ball man. who by mutual consent was
appointed arbitrator of the wrangle
between the Colorado School of Mines
and the Colorado Agricultural Col
lege concerning the award of the base
ball championship for the season of
1908, has declined to serve in this ca
pacity or to make any decision. Aft
er hearing both sides of the contro-
versy, Selee issued the following
statement:
Under the circumstances, it is
manifestly impossible for me to make
any award in this matter. The case
cannot be decided under the rules of
organized base ball, since there APP
pears to be no authoritative organi-
zation controlling such controversies
in Colorado college circles.
ut is particularly unfortunate that
there is no organization with power
governing college base ball in this
state. The colleges should get to-
gether and formulate some scheme
whereby disputes, which are certain
to arise during such short season.
may be fairly adjusted and settled
without unnecessary friction.
Personally, | shall be very glad
at any time to lend my personal as
sistance toward the placing of col
lege base ball upon firm basis in
this section of the country. 1t is be-
cause | have such a high regard for
the game that ! am diffident upon set
Ting offhand this proposition. For
the same reasons | am anxious to see
this game conducted upon safe and
sane basis in the schools and col
leges.'
