A falling tiny nerve—no larger than the finest silken thread—takes from the Heart Its Impulse, Its power, Its regularity. The Stomach also has Its hidden, or inside nerve. It was Dr. Shoop who first told us It was wrong to drug a weak

or failing Stomach, Heart or Kidneys, His prescription— Dr. Shoop’g Restorative—is directed straight for the cause of these ailments —these weak and faltering inside nerves. This, no doubt clearly explains why the Restorative has of late grown so rapidly in popularity. Druggists say that those who test the Restorative even for a few days soon become fully convinced of its wonderful merit. Anyway, don’t drug the organ. Treating the cause of sickness is the only sensible and successful way. Sold by All Dealers.

Not a Success.

The experiment was not a success. Frequently she had complained that he was hot as he used to be, that his love seemed to have grown cold and that he was too prosaic and matter of fact. So when he found one of his old love letters to her he took it with him the next time he was called away from the city, made a copy of it and mailed It to her. “John Henry,” she exclaimed when he returned, "you're the biggest fool that ever lived. I believe you have softening o i the brain. What did you mean by sending me that trash?” “Trash, my dear!” he expostulated. “Yes, trash—just sickly, sentimental nonsense.” “That isn’t how you described it whea I first wrote it and sent it to you,” be protested. “You said then it was the dearest, sweetest letter ever written, nnd you insist now that I have changed and you haven’t. I thought I would try to”— “Well, you didn’t succeed,” she interrupted, and she was mad for two days. Sometimes it is mighty difficult to please a woman.—Chicago Post.

The Penalty of Folly.

Methuselah, Jarah, Lamech and the others had gone to the old settlers’ reunion near Ararat. It was Methuselah’s nine hundredth birthday, and he capered around like a kitten, throwing balls of ophlr wood at the rag dolls, taking chances In the grab bag conducted by the Canaan church and acting a perfect hog about the pink lemonade barrel and the candied popcorn stand. “Better be careful, Meth,” Lamech warned him. “You’ll overdo yourself, old nmn.” But the ancient cutup paid no heed and proceeded to ride on the merry-go-round with n woman of the Tuballtes. Alas, how fondly foolish Is age! In ifxty-nlne fleeting years the old man tvas dead.—Puck.

Some Hope.

“What Is your son going to be?” “He shows symptoms of being a poet” "Have you consulted a specialist?*' Fishing at Winona Lake. Fishing at Winona Lake promises to be better this summer than In years. The sport this season has been remarkably active, the catches representing actual sport. The finest of bass have been caught there, while the lake fairly swarms with croppies and Bunflsh. Tbis spring, during a heavy windstorm which swept the waves high upon the shore, a huge fish measuring 39 inches in length and 23 inches through the thickest part of its body, was washed up on the shore near the Boys’ City. That such a member of the finny tribe should be washed ashore Is a pretty good guarantee that "there are others,” and only awaiting the call of the skillful angler/‘to show people.”

KETCHEL BROKE ARM ON PAPKE

“The Assassin” Retains Title In Twenty Rounds. GETS VICTORY ON POINTS Michigan Boxer, According to Referee Roche, Was After the Illinois Thunderbolt All the Time and Scored the Beat Blows—Ruling Is Jeered by Bome of the Spectators Grand Rapids Man Also Hurt One of His Thumbs. Colrna, Cal., July 6.—Stanley Ketchel of Michigan is still the world’s mid dleweight champion. In a desperate, gruelling battle, during which the Champion was constantly on the aggressive. he was awarded the decision over Billy Papke of Illinois at the end of the scheduled twenty rounds. Ketchel broke his right hand in the sixth round. His left thumb also was dislocated. The decision of the referee was greeted with a mixture of cheers and hoots. Referee “Billy” Roche said: “Ketchel was the aggressor at all times. He landed the cleaner and harder punches and scored the only knockdown —in the tenth round—although nearly everybody seems to think that Papke had slipped to the floor.” “The Assassin,” as Ketchel has been christened by ring followers, bade fair literally to live up to this name. He forced the fighting from the tap of the initial gong and, with the exception of the third, enjoyed a clear lead in the first half of the battle. In the eleventh Ketchel landed time and again with ponderous lefts but could not find a vital place.

POPULAR CONVENTIONS

Many Important Gatherings at Winona Lake This Summer. The season for conferences, conventions, musical festivals and flrst-ciasa platform attractions will soon open at Winona Lake. For months the Winona Assembly has been busy preparing the program for this summer. As a result, the finest attractions ever brought there have been secured for this season’s prograin. In addition to its exceptional Chatauquan features, Its wonderful attractions in the way of boating, bathing and fishing facilities and attractive woodland retreats, its hotel accommodations are so extensive and splendidly conduced that Winona Lake hab become an ideal convention city. The season this year has opened unusually early, and this popular summer resort will be the scene of visitation for numberless delegations to conventions from the latter part of June until late In the fall. The latte* part of June the Summer School for Missions will held their annual meet ing of one week. There will be speakers of distinction to conduct the work and assist in making the sessions of especial Interest. The Indiana Association of Photographers, which owns a pretentious building there, will again met at its summer home for a week, as Is Its annual custom. During the convention a practical training scnool Is held. There Is an extensive display of expert work and prizes are awarded. Besides the actual Work always accomplished, the social features of this convention are among the most enjoyable of the season. This convention is held July sth to 9th Inclusive. Another important convention will be that of the Sunday School Workers., beginning Aug. 10 and continuing ten days. This conference Is designed to promote advanced methods of Instruction In the Sunday school. Each year finds a heavier attendance and a keener interest In the advancement of the organization’s purpose. The Christian Citizenship League will meet there the first two weeks in August, and have arranged a fine program dealing with vital topics. This will be their sixth annual conference. They own their own building and are organized to promote good citizenship throughout the United States. This work is a branch of the National Reform Association, and seeks to contend against the flood of Immigration which Is pouring in from undesirable sources; to correct the secular drift in education; to raise the standard of morality among our public men; and to promote legislation looking toward the moral uplifting of every community. One of the great conventions of the year will be that of the temperance workers. This conference meets the first week in August. It is called the Temperance Conference and attracts tens of thousands of visitors. t With the wonderful tidal wave against the liquor traffic which has swept the entire country, but aspecially in Indiana, until It is the banner state of the Union, interest in the work which is to be done at this conference is more pronounced than ever before. Incidentally it may be stated that so great is the result of the temprance wave in Indiana that out of its ninety-two counties sixty-four are absolutely “dry” by local option and thirteen by remonstrance. In this great work in Indiana, Rev. George R. Stuart of Cleveland, Tenn., was a leader in the successful campaign against the saloons recently closed at M uncle. Dr. Stuart will have charge of the Temperance Conference. He Is a man of magnetic personality, and is recognized as one of the greatest workers In the temperance field. Dr. Stuart will be assisted by many of the leading temperance workers and speakers of the country. The chief conference of the year will be the Bible Conference, the last week in August. The conference will be conducted under the personal leadership of Dr. S. C. Dickey, secretary and general manager of Winona Assembly. From present indications this Rible Conference will be the strongest In the history of Winona Assembly. The conference is interdenominational, and all Protestant churches of the country will be represented by speakers and visitors. There will be speakers from abroad; men eminent as profound scholars and deep thinkers; men of distinction in business and professional life. The attendance always numbers thousands, but it Is expected that the hospitality of Winona Lake will be strained as never before to take care of the numbers which will no doubt attend this year. The Winona Assembly has, however, made ample provision for ill visitors, and will be prepared to comfortably care for all in attendance
