Seven Diseases Caused by Measles. Dr. Miles' Restorative Tonic and Nervine Cured After Thirty-one Years. “I was a perfectly healthy young man up to February 1865. When my regiment was in Camp Randall I was taken sick with the measles and I did not enjoy good health up to the time I used Dr. Mires’ Restorative Nervine and Tonic in 1896. Doctors have told me it came from inactivity of the liver. I cannot say how many physicians did treat me but have had all kinds. Dieting has never helped me. Biliousness, attacks of headache, rheumatism, nasal catarh, hay fever, asthma, and chronic diarrhcea; have all taken their turn with me. Thanks to the Nervine and Tonic I am completely restored to health. I have also used Dr. Miles’ AntiPain Pills with good results and I think that the Dr. Miles Remedies are perfect.”—Rev. Hiram Bender, Sparta, Wis. “I want to say a few good words for Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine. I have been troubled very much with insomnia since 1 made the change to the new paper and on account of this nave tried vanous remedies without relief. I was finally induced by a wholesale druggist, a personal friend of mine, to try Nervine. I can assure you it has done me a lot of good. Ido not find it necessary to use it regularly now but occasionally when I find tnat I am excessively nervous and restless I again take it up as I always keep s supply on hand. It has never failea to give me the desired relief.” —A. Huegin, Publisher “Daily Free-Press” Milwaukee, Wis. All druggists sell and guarantee first bottle Dr. Mues’ Remedies.

Climatic Cures. The influence of climatic conditions in the cure of consumption Is very n.uch overdrawn. The poor patient, and the rich patient, too, can do much better at home by proper attention to food digestion, and a regular use a i German Syrup. Free expectoration in the morning is made certain by German Syrup, so la a good night’s rest and the absence of that weakening cough and debilitating night sweat. Restless nights and the exhaustion doe to coughing, the greatest danger and dread of the consumptive, can be prevented or stopped by taking German Syrup liberally and regularly. Should you be able to go to a warmer dime, you will find that of the thousands of consumptives there, a few who eee benefitted and regain strength are those who nee German Syrup. Trial bottles, 96c;

AN OBSTINATE MAJOR.

He Had HU Way Even After He Was la Hi. Coffin. Many amusing stories are told of the great formality blended with a humorous brusqueness and independence which characterized early Revolutionary days. An incident of camp life Is related by the author of “Romance and Realism of the Southern Gulf Coast.” In 1708 the first United States troops that came down the Mississippi were quartered at Fort Adams. General Wilkinson, Colonel Hamtramek, Major Butler, Captain Green and other officers were merry over their punch one night, and the general, by some aeci’dent, got his cue burned off. Angry at the laugh which followed his mishap, he next day issued an order forbidding any officer to appear with a cue. Obedient to orders, all the officers but Major Butler cut off their cues. “The vain old prig!” said the major. “I’ll see him hanged before I cut off my cue to gratify him!” And he boldly appeared without changing the style of his hairdressing. The major was put under arrest, but he declared obstinately that he would spend the rest of his life In prison before he would comply with such a silly command. Soon afterward he was taken very ill, and, realizing that he was at the point of death, he gave Instructions for bis burial, which he knew would be witnessed by the whole command. .. “Bore a hole,” said he, “through the bottom of my coffin, right under my head, and let my cue come through It, that the old general may see that even when dead I refuse to obey his order.” And these direction were literally carried out

Floch of Anastone, Washington, is visiting relatives in Newton tp, Mr. Floch formerly resided with his parents five miles west of Rensselaer, in Newtsn tp., on what was then known as the Rickett farm. He left here thirtyfive years ago and this is his first visit beck, He is located in Washington thirty miies from Lewiston, Idaho—his nearest railroad station —on the Snake river, and is engaged in farming and stock raising. He thinks there is no place like Washington and that the state has a great future before it. In the locality where he resides the temperature is always cool, too cool for corn, but wheat and fruit of nearly all kinds yield abundantly. The temperature is much the same the year around, he says, and it never gets as cold as it was here Tuesday. Mr. Floch will remain in Indiana until after Christmas, and will visit in the southern part of the state ere returning home.

ANOTHER FOOTBALL VICTIM.

Paul Frenzel, 1(1 years old, son of O. N. Frenzel, president of the Merchahts’ National Bank of Indianapolis, died Wednesday morning from injuries received some weeks ago in the scrimmage practice of the Training School squad. Frenzel was kicked just below the ribs and for several minutes lost control of his limbs and could not move them. He was examined on the field by Doctor Cunningham, coach of the second team, and was thought at the time to be seriously injured. He apparently recovered from the mishap in a week and again joined the squad. Frenzel was not troubled again with the injury until last Friday, when he had gone home after school, and soon complained of a pain in his back. He rapidly lost consciousness and for the last three days preceding bis death knew nothing. He continually raved in his delirium, calling the signals of the team over and over.

Paris, 111., Nov. 26.—Felix .McWhirter, Jr., a Depanw student, is still unconscious and believed to be fatally injured as a result of a collision with Shaw, the Paris half back, 4n the ganha-ihlfl afternoon between Paris and Greencastle, Ind. McWhirter is the son of a prominent Indianapolis lawyer.

The Indiana militiamen who attended the military maneuvers at West Point, Ky., will get? no pay - for the ten days’ time they*put in, Adjutant-General Ward has so notitled the variuus commanders, expressing for the Governor his < “profound regreat and sincere disappointment” that the appropriation is insufficient to meet pay rolls. The explanation given isthat the increase in the* total/ amount required to meet the semiannual pay rolls, is something; like 200 per cent over former totals. Five thousand dollars paidf the April rolls. Fourteen thousand dollars will be recruired tC* meet the October rolls. The- increase results from the amendments to the malitia law which* struck out the requirement imposing fines for non-attendanee at drills.

The worn-out stomach of the over-fed mil- - lionaire is often paraded in the public prints as a horrible exainp'e of the evil attendant on the possession of great wealth. But millionaires are not the only ones that are afflicted with bad stomachs. The proportion is far greater among the toilers. Dyspepsia and. constipation are rampant among these people and they suffer far worse tortures than the millionaire unless they avail themselves of » i standard medicine like Green’s August.' Flower, which has been a favorite household i remedy for all stomach troubles for over thirty-fb-e years. August Flower rouses the torpid liver thus creating appetite and insuring perfect digestion. It tones and vitalizes the entire system and makes life worth living no matter what your station. Trial bottlee 25c; regular size, 75c, at Long's cfcucpstore. nONEY TO LOAN.
