WORRY, AND WEAKNESS lieu an ULulAAMLJ _ v..-__-_, If 'you are a victim of exhausted nerves, if your symptoms are as de- scribed above, you need Dr. Williams' "s'nk Pills because they are a power- h‘yl nerve tonic. Their strengthening betion on weak nerves is due to the fact that they enrich and build up the blood through which the nerves are fed. Under the tonic inffuence of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills all traces of nervous weakness disappear together _ with the headaches, the insomnia, the “feeling of intense weakness and de- pression of spirits that mark the vie- tim of nervous ailments. Here is the roof. Mr. Henry Marr, Port Felix, f. .S., says: "It gives me greatest plea- e to testify as to the value of Dr. illianus' Pink Pills. When I began their use I was a physical wreck; my nerves were all unstrung, I suffered from frequent headaches and baelo. , Iches, and was almost wholly unhtted (or work. I had tried several reme- iies without success, when I finally V "etided to give Dr. -Williams’ Pink Pills a trial. I took six boxes and t they made me a well man." G What these Pills did for Mr. Marr they will do for every other weak and nervous man, if given a fair trial.

Overwork and worry have an evil meet on the system and often give iise to nervousness and sleeplessness. Other signs include a. weak back, headaches and indigestion. In time, Irmatters are neglected, a complete breakdown of, the nervous system fol- lows. On every hand one can observe {victims of this state of nervous ex- hustion who are at a loss to know what to do with themselves, their tteritous, debilitated state having baf- tled all ordinary treatment. I ad in rare instances, to the scalpel, and the existence of the brain, uhhough they knew not its functions, V wasawellll known. -, With the Hebrews, the heart was the chief seat of the soul, while the mind was supposed to be located in she kidneys, and all of the tender " Emotions were assigned to the -tiowels.

In 1833 “it was applied by Elhrnberg, who was the first to dis- aover the nerve (will in the spinal gang-hon. But Dr. Paul Broca, in 1861, was the first to definitely lo- cate in the brain, a particular lo- sality on the cortex for articulate speech. This he located in the Aower and posterior convolution salled the Third Frontal, now known as "Broca's Convolution.” [his was no mere unverified scieartifie theory, but the fact was actually demonstrated by injury in that part of the brain, and conse- quent loss of speech from paraly- As, Verily, it would_ wean from Itteertridicate Overwork and a Ran Down Nervous System.

They were possibly correct in holding that the mind does not act as a, unit, but is divided into various faculties). . The word "Brain," is of modern origin, and does not occur in the Bible. The reason is that during the centuries the Bible was being written no one suspected that this silent and secluded organ had any- thing to do with thought or feeling. When Jeremiah denounced hypo- "rites, he said of them they had the Lord in their mouths, but not in ;heir kidneys; and the Psalmist Iayxs that "His reins (kidneys) in- struct him in the night seasons," In" those days it was considered 'aeriligious to dissect the human 'ody; nevertheless, it was subject- Ely-Chas. M. Bice, Denver, Colo THE EU MAN BRAIN . of the senses are found in both hemispheres of the brain, and their functions are congenital, that is from birth, the seats of the facul- try of speech are found only in one of the two hemispheres. Hence, if these are damaged after middle life, the LOSS is ire- t?ediabhe, and the unfortunate vse,- tim can Lever LiyeajrAuslir/, though the 1sorrespopdiryr. spot in the other hemisphere be lefrt intact. Another strange and remerka.hle feature has been discovered, VIZ..' that this endowment of the one hemisphere of the brain is not con- genital, or beca,uge of its superior- ity over the other, but because it was the hemisphere that velated to the most used hand of the child. In all right handed person's it is in the left brain than: the speech (perm tres are located, and vice versa wiyrlett handed persons . This demonstrates that brain matter does not originate speech, for otherwise both hemispheres would have their respective speech centres. Either hemisphere is equally good for speech providing the hand dexterity, right or left, begins early enough in life ‘00 use it for trat purpose. _ It follows that self-education be- gins largely with the strRtohing forth of the hand, and is 11etitet, tinot from the elementary fume ions of sensation and motion, which are Gouge nita! . _ _ , Our ability to know and to re- cognize what particular objects mean, and what our sens-es report, is not congenital, but is acquired by us, in the [slams way as speech is acquired. It has been discovered that in the visual space, or arelib, is a. place which if damaged, renders the per- son tusable 1,0 recognize members of his own family though he can plainly see them. The game is brue if a certain spot be injured in the brain corresponding to hearing: the person is unable to distinguish between the report of a gun and the bark of a dog. He hears a noise only, and to him they are all alike. It is hard to believe that tea or cof- fee will put a person in such a condi- tion as it did this woman. She tells her own story: "So I got some Postum to help me quit. I made it strictly according to directions, and I want to tell you that change was the greatest step in my life. It was easy to quit coffee be- cause I now like Postum better than coffee. "One by one of the old troubles left until now I am in splendid health, nerves steady, heart all right, and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don't take any medi- cine, can do all my house work, and have done a great deal beside." "Frequently I had nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away, any any little noise would upset me terribly. I was gradually getting worse until finally I asked myself what's the use of being sick all the time and buying medicine so that I could indulge myself in coffee? The instructions to provide for a tour through France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Belgium, and Holland, "all which may be done completely in three years and four months, which four months I allow for itin- ary Removals and journeys, and the years for residence in places." In those days "forraine travell" meant something more than a month’s skip through Europe. "I did not believe coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked it so well I would not, and could not, quit drinking it, but I was a miserable sufferer from heart trouble and ner- vous prostration for four years." (Tea is just as injurious as coffee, because it, too, contains the health-destroying drug, caffeine.) "I was scarcely able to be around, had no energy, and did not care for anything.

Daw- kins, of Port Richmond. I was weak for a long time, but well enough to work until spring. But something went wrong with my bowels tor I had to use salts or Physic all the time. My stomach kept sour, and always after eating there was a pain and fulness, and all symptoms of intestinal indi- gestion. Nothing helped me until I used Dr. Hamilton's Pills. Instead ot hurting, like other pills, they acted very mildly, and seemed to heal the bowels. I did not require large doses to get results with Dr. Hamilton's Pills, and feel so glad that I have found a. mild F- yet certain remedy. To-day I am well-no pain, no sour stomach, a good appetite, able to di- gest anything. This is a. whole lot of good tor one medicine to do, and I can say Dr. Hamilton's Pills are the best pills, and my letter, I am sure, proves it.

And the point of the fashion news she gave me is that the gowns we'll be wearing in the dog-days will be just as cool and bewitching as the Dolly Vardens worn by our grand- mothers. The sketch, made from a gown de- signed by Mme. Hillquist of the Fash- ion Art League, is made of novelty organdie, with sleeves of net, and side panels of net in the little coatee. The three-tier ruffle is pointed, the sleeves, the collar, the jabot effect at the neck, all give "point" to the general effect of points and angles. Embroidered batiste is used as a foundation for the skirt, and salmon color chenille rosebuds ornament the upper ruffle of the tier. The girdle is crushed apple green silk knotted in the front and with a big bow at the back. There's "Point" to The Point Gown She Was Sure.

Superstitions people, even in this enlightened- age, negard the tiolr- ing. sound of a. certain kind of beetle with terror, believing that it "elieks the hour of death." The name "deadwatch" has been ap- plied from time immemorial to the sound made by this small insect an it burrows in wood. The beetle in question is an in. sect of the genus anobium, there being several varieties, to all of which the name deathwatch is pop- ularly given, as well as to their p-eouliam sound. The body of this insect is firm, not more than one- fourth of an inch long, its head is rounded, the thorax aached. It is said to make its sounds generally in the night, but probably this idea has arisen from the fact that it is omilly in the silence of the night that the slight sound becomes au- dible. - Anyone who has watched through the night hours by the bed of one who is dangerously ill can readily understand how the faint tick, tick within the woodwork of the wall came to be regarded as a, sound of evil omen. In order to make this peculiar noise the insect draws in the antenna. and intermediate legs, and, nesting prinoipally upon the median legs, strikes its head against its support by a, sort of rocking motion. . The deathwauh beetle has the in- variable habit of feigning death when seized or disturbed. The sim- ulation is so persistent that when immersed in water, or even in al- cohol, the insect remains perfectly immovable, and will allow itself tx) be burned alive rather than betray itself.

Speaking at a meeting of the In- dian Section of the Royal Society of Arts, London, the Marquis of Crewe said it was impossible for us to reiterate too often our sense of the debt we owed to the people of India for' the part they were tak- ing in this stupendous world strug- gle. We could not expect the or- dinary small trader or cultivator in India, whose affairs at ordinary times depended in their vicissitudes upon the caprices of fyewaS011, or mat- ket, to regard with complete indif- ference ever result which might be brought home to him personally) through this remote and gigantic, convulsion. It was, therefore, the Government's most serious duty to attempt as far as possible to temper to these people such results. It was the Government's hope that it might; be possible throughout this long struggle to continue the policy so far pursued of not imposing any fresh taxation upon the people of India. It was exceedingly difficult in the circumstances of India to devise any system of raising fresh revenue by taxation which did not hit the very poor classes. HisLord- ship also pointed out that anybody in India with capital to invest, who would take a share, large or small, in a Government rupee loan was not merely assisting the devel- opment of the country, but was po- sitively assisting-in the prosecution of the war. The limitations impos- ed upon the issue of‘Capital in our market here were founded on the fact the maintenance of British cre- dit stood only second in its effect on the prosecution of the war to the continual supply of Inren and munitions. Therefore the investor in India who would come to the front in this way was doing a pub- lic service.
