A Very Sick Hoy I
Mark Twain on |ii* hut visit to
his birthplace-'?Hannibal, Mo.?*
told the school children a true
story about a schoolboy, says the
Philadelphia Record.
" This boy" he said, "Awoke
one morning very ill. I lis groans
alarmed the household The doctor
was sent for and came, post
haste. 1
Well," said the doctor as he
entered the sickroom, "what is
the trouble?" J"
" A pain in my side," said the
boy.
t
"Any pain in the head?"
.. V . .. t
i es, sir.
"Is the right hand stiff?"
"A little." >'
"I low about the right foot?"
" That's stiff too."
The doctor winked at the boy's J1
mother.
"Well," he said, you're pretty .
sick. Hat you'll be able to go to ,
school on Monday. Let me see, \
today isSatutday and '
"Is today Saturday?" said the fj
boy in a vexed tone, "I thought
it was Friday."
Half an hour later the boy declared
himself healed and got up. ?
cl
Then they packed him off to
. . . tl
school, for it was Friday, after all."

beginning of his career, to distrust ^
a bookkeeper who afterwards
turned out to be a very unreliable

Cotton's Condition Worse.
Veathcr Bureau Weekly Report
Declares RustQand Shedding
Kxtensive and Drought
in Texas,
Washington, Aug. 22.?The
/cekly summary of crop condiions,
issued by the Weather Hueau.says:
While cotton Iris improved in
portions of the central and westrn
districts, the crop as a whole
as suffered deterioration, which
; most marked in the eastern disricts.
Rust and shedding arc exensive
throughout the belt, and
Iry, hot weather has proved ininious
overmuch of Texas, where
iremature opening is rcportod,
ut boll weevils in that state, as
rule, are diminishing. The crop
as improved in Arkansas, some
orthcastern counties in Texas,
i portions of Louisiana, northern
Uabama, and in a few places in
iouth Carolina, Picking is quite
encral in central and southern
'exas and over the southern porion
of the eastern districts.
Wet weather has proved injuries
to tobacco in Ohio and Indi
na, but most reports respecting
lis crop are favorable, an im- |
roventent in Kentucky, the Midle
Atlantic States and New Kngnd
being indicated.
A Profound Secret. ^
Alton 11. Parker, at a dinner i
cw York, characterized as illogi- j
il the position of two prominent
tanciers, says an exchange.
" These gentlemen remind me,"
; said, " of two sailors who were <>
und one day seated at a tabic
.'fore a cafe.
" Ono sailor had a letter before
m 'and was reading it aloud,
hile at the same time the other ilor
held his hands over the ^
adei's ears.
"It made an odd picture?ihe
/o sailors with their mild drink,
ic reading and the other holding
s cars while he did so.
" The friendly waiter, impelled J?
/ an irresistible curiosity, paused i
iforc the table. J
" 'Why,' he asked, 'do you hold
5ur hands over your friend's ears
hile he reads that letter out loud
> you?'
" 'Because,' was the dignified
iswcr, 'the letter is from my
veethcart. Jack is reading it to
ic because I can't read myself,
hat is all rig' t, but I don't want
im to hear a word of what is

You Must i
Sleep, ;
if you cannot, it is due to an 1
irritated or congested state of j}
the brain, which will soon dc- j
yclopc into nervous prostration.
Nature demands sleep, and ,'
it is as important as food; it ]
is a part of her building and
sustaining process. This period
of unconsciousness relaxes the '
mental and physical strain, and \
allows nature to restore ex- !
haustcd vitality.
Dr. Miles' Nervine brings
refreshing sleep, because it s
soothes the irritation and re- s
moves the congestion.
It is .also a nerve builder; it
nourishes and strengthens every
nerve in your body, and
creates energy in all the organs.
