As Steady as Clock Worll. Dr. Miles' Nervine Made Thein So After Years of Heart and Nerve Trouble. Weak and hungry spells indicate a nervous affection of the heart. e nerves are not getting the nourishment they need, andupless treatmentis speedily begun, disastrous results are sure to follow. When strengthened, in -vigorated and restored to their normal stite the nervous system abounds in energy, vitality and nerve-force, and suceessfully resists the attack of disease and decay. Dr. Miles' Nervine is the true nerve tonic, furnishing, as it does, the exact element of nourishmentand strength which the shattered nervous system requires, so that good results, noticeably pro nounced, follow the giving of the first few doses. It is a wonderful nerve specific. 'Tor many years I was a sufferer from heart and nervous troubles. I would have spells when I would be uncommonly hungry even after eating; headache, sour stomach, griping pains, weak, trembling spells, me sometimes quite severe. The doctor gave only temporary relief from pain and I de cided to try Dr. Miles' Remedies. I began with one bottle of the Heart Cure and one of the Restorative Nervine, and they helped me so much that I got some more. When I had taken six bottles my nerves were as steady as clock-work. I could eat anything I wanted and as much as I wanted without it hurting me. I thank Dr. Miles for the good it has dona me." John B. Adams, Glenn, Ga.

MEAL FOR WEEVILS. Farmer Will Kill Insects By Cater ing to Their Taste. Mariin, Tex., Dec. 9. A farmer in the western part of Falls county thinks he has discovered a means of exterminating the boll weevil. He says just as an ant takes to su gar so does the boll weevil take to cottonseed meal. His plan is to p rison the meal with arsenic and place it in piles forty or fifty feet apa-r-tover the field. Ho claims to have ntfide a trial of this plan and found it vjjry successful. 23BTr- X TRUE CIVIC SPIRIT. New Yorker. According to a gentleman who has spent many, years in the gold fblds, the average digger would bear comparison with some of ouijp best "debaters. Some time ago the "boys" of Nugget Creek were in council as sembled. It was generally. admitted that the size of the colony consist ing as it did of something just over a dozen shanties entitled it to be considered a city, and Mecca City sprang, into existence. Then one Roaring Dick arose and wanted to know what the "citizens" intended to do in the matter of lighting the "streets" by night. uYou know me, boys," he said, twirling a formidable-looking-six-shooter, "I ain't afraid o' nothing, nayther in daylight nor dark. But it's this way other cities 'as got gas, and Mecca's got ter 'ave it." "I can t bo did!" said one. 'jit's got tor be did!" roared the speaker. ''Wot other cities does we does! 'Sides, gas lamps is a horna ment an' lamp posts a habsolute necessity. Why, thor ain't a decent spot ter lynch a man within .twen ty miles. Wo're goin5 tor 'ave lamp posts.'" The argument was conclusive, and it was decided unanimously to ffnvc gas. New York 'Change Seat Cheaper. For some unexplained reason there has been a decided "slump" in the price of seats on the New York Stock exchange. A seat sold last week for S6o,oo, which is $5,000 below the last sale reported, and $15,000 below the high level price of two months ago. Brokers ascribe the break to the fact that the market now, and for some time pUst, - has been wholly "profession al," or, in. other words, the specula tive public is standing aloof.
