Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs of the body are under tin- con-
trol of the nervo centers, located in • near
the base of tho brain, and that when tl t.-tinre
deranged th# organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged, when Ft is re-
membered that a serious injury to theuplnal
cord will causo paralysis of the body below
^ ^ v»»v/ mvJV
tho Injured point, because the nerve force Is
prevented by tho Injury from reaching tho
paralyzed portion, it will be understood how
ac - -
ca use the derangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
I. wo-thirds or chronic diseases afe due to
t he imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base of tho brain, not from a derange-
niont primarily originating in the organ it-
self. Tho great mistake of physicians in
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers which
are tho cause of the trouble.
I>u. Franklin Milks, the celebrated spe-
cialist,has profoundly studied this subject for
oyer 30 years, and has made many important
discoveries in connection with It, chief among
them being the facts'contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods of
treatment are wrong. Ail headache, dizzi-
ness, dullness, confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, Si.
Vitus dance, etc., are nervous diseases u
matter how caused. The wonderful success ot
3>r. Mllos' Restorative Nervine Is due to tho
fact that it Is based on the foregoing principle.

Chased the Chipmuk Down Hli TtiMM.
A very peculiar accident happened ze-
cently to Bbe« White, a farmer liting
v about four mileft northwest of St. Joints,
Mich. He had been working in the
woods aud lay down to sleep under a
tree and must have slept with his
mouth open. A common mongrel pup
and a small boy were his companions.
While the old man slept the boy and
the dog started a chipmunk and proceed-
ed to chaso it. That chipmunk made
tracks for safety, and seeing White's
mouth open dodged in. It was a new
sensation to White to have a chipmunk
trying to get down his throat niite, and
ho woke up in a hurry, fie nearly
choked to death before he pulled that
chipmunk out, and then he killed the
little nnimal and brought it into town
to prove the truth of the story he tells.
A doctor who examined his throat and
mouth found it badly lacerated and says
ho believes White's story is true.—-Chi-
cago Herald.

Mormon Wealth.
v Tho great wealth, either of the Mor-
mon church or of the individuals at its
head, has been again demonstrated by
the remit investment of $10,000,000 by
tho "first presidency" in a new corpora-
tion called tho Ctnh company. This now
company is to operate coal mines, a rail-
road, a bathing beach and pleasure re-
tort at tho Great Salt lake, and build,
equip and operate telegraphic and tele-
phone lines. This is purely a church
scheme, in which gentiles have no part,
and is like the Zion Oo-operative com-
puny, to be Managed to a4d to the
wealth of the chnrch.— Springfield Re-
publican.
i The press dispatches inform as
that the Japanese are amused and
astonished to find that their Chi-
nese prisoners have not the spark of
patriotism and are only eoBcerned
about their pay, which they are beg-
ging the Japanese to collect from
the Chinese government These
prisoners frankly avow that they
are mere mercenaries, fighting for
money and. nothing else. They are
well satisfied to remain in captivity,
provided they ean get their pay.
The spirit which animates these un-
patriotic hirelings is not confined to
China.^Even in our own country
we find legions of men who think
more of pay than patriotism, and
who care little about the welfare of
the republic so long as they can
reap the fruits of patronage. Our
political mercenaries who enlist in
the public service do not bother
themselves about their obligations
to their party. They are tied by a
string to certain leaders and bosses
who placed them in office, and their
sole object seems to be to serve
their patrons and build them up,
instead of serving and building up
their party.

Pastor Ev.'Luth., St. Pauls Church
A few years ago the addresses at
the country fairs were usually de-
livered by the doctors, or by would-
be statesmen, who praised the farmers
and their work without limit, in the
hope of winning votes thereby. But
lately a greater proportion of the
speakers have been farmers, who
have been selected because they
were supposed to know something
of farming and know how to till the
soil. This may be in a part a re-
sult of the' work of the institutes,
where the farmer has learned to
"speak in meeting"' upon farming
topics, and in part a result of a
more general good education in the
agricultural districts. And it is no
longer the custom to put "the fool
of the fami^r" at work upon the
farm, and try to save those who
learn their lessons well at school
for some "higher calling," like keep-
ing a corner grocery store.

If every private citizen computed
Mid regulated hi! expenses with as
wise an economy as railroads prac-
tice, the number of those independ-
ently rich would materially increase.
Even the exact cost of kindling
a fire in a locomotive is known and
carefully minimized. To kindle one
fire has always taken one-eighth of
a oord of wood at a cost of 40 cents.
The Minneapolis and St. Paul Rail-
road has introduced a new tire-
kindler, consisting of a spray of
crude oil, which plays in the fire-
box until the coal is thoroughly
ablaze. This fakes about a gallon
of oil and about eight minutes'
time, aod costs from 1 to cents.

tug and Gelvanlzed Iron Work,
After enduring insult and calumny at
the hands of scurrilous journalists for
many years the leaders of New York
society have thought it time to revolt.
They have engaged counsel to frame an
act establishing a "court of censorship"
upon news, which they fondly hope
will bo made law some day. In the
meantime the personalities will contin-
ue, and—what is tho foolish part of it
—the purchase of the papers by the re-
formers will continue.—London Globe.
J>ees ot .Famous Physicians.
The British Medical Journal, just
out, contradicts Dr. Shrady's assertions
in his recent article in an American
magazine regarding the fees of famous
physicians. It says:
"The fees attributed to Sir William
Gull and Sir Andrew Clark for country
attendance are multiplied by ten. The
total fees earned by Sir Morell Macken-
zie for attendance on the German em-
peror, extending over months, are dou-
bled, and no such fee as £50,000 was
ever earned by any surgeon in India."
Blood Sernm For Diphtheria.
Experiments in the injections of blood
serum for diphtheria are meeting with
increasing success. In Vienna the pa-
tients in the Children's hospital there,
who are given up under ordinary treat-
ment, are receiving the new remedy,
and three otft of foar recover.
The Bieyele Tread.
Have you noticed the latest walk that
the sgciety girl is assuming? I was
standing at the corner of Fourth and
Market yesterday when about a dozen
young women passed, and every one of
them had the same style of walk. I do
not think it is anything like those that
haVe heretofore gone the gaits after the
girls have returned from the eastern re-
sorts. This one is a stride made as if the
girl was trying to keep her pointed shoes
from catching into her skirt flounces. It
is a slipshod walk and makes one feel
as if the walker were wishing she were
back on her bicycle. YeS, it's the bi-
cycle tread now, the vaccination limp
and Newport step having gone com-
pletely out.—Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal.
niaconraging to Burglar*.
There is little encouragement' for a
man to bo a burglar nowadays. When
he has an earnest aspiration to rise to
eminence in the profession, inventive
genius always does all it can to bother
him. For instance, tho vaults of the
subtreasury in San Francisco are fitted
with wires laid between every two rows
of brick, so that any attempt to inter-
fere with the cement or tho bricks will
distnrb an electric circuit and sound r.
warning bell.—Boston Courier.
Painting the Forth Bridge.
The Forth bridge receives a new coat
of paint every three years, and one-
third 1b done each year, so that the
painters are continually at work. Be-
sides the painting, every part of the
structure is carefully examined and
looae or defective rivets removed and
new ones pat in their place.—Glasgow
Herald.
Egyptians of Moses' time are believed
to hare been a cross between the black
raoes of the south aad the white invad-
ers from the uorth.
