Symptom treatment is treating the result of your ailment, and not the cause. Weak Stomach nerves, the inside nerves, mean Stomach weakness, always. And the Heart, and Kidneys, as well, have their controlling or inside nerves. Weaken these nerves, and you inevitably have weak vital organs. Here is where Dr. Shoop’s Restorative has made Its fame. No other remedy even claims to treat the “inside nerves.” Also for bloating, biliousness, bad breath or complexious, use Dr. Shoop's Restorative. Write me today for sample and free Book.

MARK TWAIN’S CHILDREN." A Case Where Attempted Punishment Proved a Hopeless Failure. Ordinary punishments answered very well for Susy. She was a thinker and would reason out the purpose of them, apply the lesson aud achieve the reform required. But it was much less easy to devise punishments that would reform Clara. This was because she was a philosopher who was always turning her attention to finding something good and satisfactory and entertaining In everything that came her way. Consequently It was sometimes pretty discouraging to the troubled mother to find that after all her pains and thought in Inventing what she meant to be a severe and reform compelling punishment the child had entirely missed the severities through her native disposition to get interest and pleasure out of them as novelties. The mother, in her anxiety to find a penalty that would take sharp hold and do its work effectively, at last resorted, with a sore heart ami with a reproachful conscience, to that punishment which the incorrigible criminal in the penitentiary dreads above all the other punitive miseries which the warden inflicts upon him for his good—solitary confinement in the dark chamber. The grieved and worried mother shut Clara up in a very small clothes closet and went away aud left her there—for fifteen minutes. It was all that the mother heart could endure. Then she came softly back and listened—listened for the sobs, but there weren’t any; there were muffled and inarticulate sounds, but they could not be construed into sobs. The mother waited half an hour longer. By that time she was suffering so Intensely with sorrow and compassion for the little prisoner that she was not able to wait any longer for the distressed sounds which she had counted upon to inform her when there had been punishment enough and the reform accomplished. She opened the closet to set tl>e prisoner free and take her back into her loving favor and forgiveness, but the result was not the one expected. The captive had manufactured a fairy cavern out of the closet, and friendly fairies out of the clothes hanging from the hooks and was having a most sinful and unrepentant good time and requested permission to spend the rest of the day there!—From Mark Twain’s Autobiograuhv In North American Uev-ww

INDIAN PROVERBS. The coward shoots with shut eyes. Small things talk loud to the Indian’s eye. The paleface's arm Is longer than his word. When a fox walks lame, the old rabbit Jumps. A squaw’s tongue runs faster than the wind’s legs. There is nothing so eloquent as a rattlesnake's tail. The Indian scalps his enemy. The paleface skins his friends. Two men will live together in quiet and friendship, but two squaws never. When a man prays one day and steals six, the Great Spirit thunders and the evil one laughs. There are three things it takes a strong man to hold—a young warrior, a wild horse and a handsome squaw.— Scrap Book. A Dog and an Egg. A farmer in a western state possessed two dogs, a big one called Alice and a small one that was named Billy. Alice, greedy creature, was fond of fresh eggs. When she heard a hen cackle she always ran to look for the nest. One day she found one under the fruit shed. But she could not get the egg because she was too large to go under the shed. She went away and soon returned with Billy, bringing him Just before the hole. Billy was stupid and did not understand. Alice put her head in and then her paws without being able to reach the egg. Billy seemed to understand ■what was wanted. He went under th* shed, brought out the egg and put it before Alice, who ate it with great satisfaction, and then both dogs trotted off together.— Chicago Tri buns Why They Left. “Hello, George!
