"For more than a year 1 had been a sufferer, completely broken down. I had not slept but two or three hours any night for weeks. I had such awful misery in my head, and oh, I was so irritable. I could not depend upon my. judgement, and my memory was failing. I realized that I was losing my mind, and I thought the grave, or worse, the asylum, would be my doom. My doctor said my case was beyond the reach of medicine. I went to a druggist and told him my condition. He recommended Dr. Miles' Nervine; he was pretty sure it would help me, so I bought a bottle. That night I took a table spoonful, and fell asleep in a few minutes, the first rest I had in weeks, and oh, I will never forget that sweet sleep while I live. I have continued taking it, and sleep like a baby, and gain rapidly." MRS. VIOLA BARKER, Grange, Texas. Dr. Miles' Nervine Is sold by your druggist, who will guarantee that the first bottle will benet. If It fails, he will refund your money. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind

Leading men of the corporation told

Mr. Corey he must be back by Febru

Mr. Corey has ail along intended

marrying Mabelle Gilman, according to those in close touch with the family here. He went to Paris intending to bring her back as his wife. He has

repeatedly denied his approaching marriage because he wanted to avoid

The head of the Steel Trust, immediately after his arrival here from New York, proceeded to the Chateau Villegnis, near the vllage of Massay Ferriere, which Miss Mabelle Gilman bought some three months ago for 650,000 francs. He arrived in the chateau on the night of December 21,

after automobiling from Paris through a snow storm, and is living in the chateau now. Miss Gilman is chaperoned by her mother and Mr. Corey's sister. She and the millionaire are frequently seen dashing over the snowy roads in a closed automobile in the vicinity of the

chateau, studying the country, which is full of ancient mansions of the old aristocracy. The couple seem desirous of avoiding observation, as the automobile al

ways makes a wide detour instead of passing through the village, to whose inhabitants the new and pretty chatelaine from the United States remains an absorbing mystery. j Before the arrival of Mr. Corey, Miss

Gilman frequently visited the villago postoffice to inquire for telegrams cr letters. Her beautiful Parisian gowns and hats always brought the curious villagers to the doors and windows to

watch her pass. Miss Gilman's independent American manners seem to displease the simple

villagers. One day, in .particular, it! is related, she entered the little post-;

office, and, not finding the Postmistress

by her desk, ppenetrated the bedroom

beyond, where the woman was dressing, and soundly upbraided her for neg

lecting her duty. The villagers have been unable to learn anything of the

affairs of the occupants of the chateau of Villegnis. Mr. Corey and Miss Gilman ought io be deeply interested in the chateau, about which cluster many traditions of the former occupants who were bearers of historic titles. The chateau was built about the end of the seventeenth century by Coimt De Lorme, who later sold it to Prince Je

rome, brother of Napoleon I., who was

for six years King of Westphalia. The facade bears the carved, moss-grown

coat of arms of the King of Westpha

lia, who died in the bedroom now occupied by Miss Gilman. After King Jerome's death the chateau was bought by Monsieur Giroux, whose daughter married Bazm, vere. The latter's son, a lawyer, now practicing in Paris, sold the chateau, Vith its furniture, park, gardens, etc., to Miss Gilman last October for 650,000 francs. Most of the furniture was installed by Prince Jerome. The chateau is filled with superb furniture and decorations, as Prince Jerome himself supervised the decorations, and approved the designs of the furniture, the best

artists of the Napoleonic court being

employed. The chateau is three stories high

The third story is in the mansard style and the two lower stories are pierced by 26 windows, 13 In each story, which

gives one an idea of the extent of the

facade.

Lord Ellenborough And His Sa.rca.sm

T

HERE are few places that have

given birth to more humor and wit than the courtroom. Many

have heard of the humor of the famous Lord Ellenborough. One day a young member of the bar rose to address the court in a grave criminal case. "My unfortunate client" he began, repeated it two or three times and then stopped short. "Go on, sir; go oa!" said Ellenborough. "So far the court is with you." At another time Rankle Jackson, who despised technicality aatl reveled in eloquence, began hij argument with "In the book of nature it is written" Ellenborough broke in with, "Be good enough to mention the page from which you are about to quote." One day during an important criminal trial a surgeon was called to the stand, 5and when asked his profession he said, "I employ myself as a physician." "But," said Ellenborough, "does any one else employ you as a physician?" When Westmoreland was In the house of lords he rose to give his opinion on a question in debate and said, "At this point I ask myself a question." "And a stupid answer you are sure to get to it," murmured Ellenborough. St. Louis Republic.

Bristol cathedral took 582 years before it was completed in 1SS3. Gloucester cathedral was 425 years in building. . Dr. Algernon Crapsey announces that he has decided to make a lecturing tour of the principal cities of the country. It is claimed that a Christian church existed at Glastonbury, England, as early as A. D. 300. St. Martin's, Canterbury, was built about A. D. 597. Bishop Cusack of Xew York, assistant to Archbishop Farley, is a rugged, vigorous and forceful though polished orator and a man of great personal magnetism.
