This strike is not at the call of it's

industrial despotism will recede from
the untenable position now occupied
by Mr.. Gary. We have faith in your

To overdo anything is harmful and

other such habits waste away the most
vital elements of the blood, brain and
nerves then disease sets in. At first
there will be a general indisposition,
poor appetite, indigestion, severe head
ache, wakefulness and weakness in the
back, the temper irritable, the spirits
depressed, the memory poor and the

decline. DR.. Chase's Blood and Nerve
