ST. VITUS DANCE, A Physician Prescribes Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine. Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind.:. My daughter Mattie, aged 14, was afflicted last spring with St. Vitus dance and nervousness, her entire right side was numb and nearly paralyzed. We consulted a phy
sician and he prescribed Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine. She took three bottles before we saw any certain signs of Improvement, bat after that she began to improve very fast and I now think she is entirely cured. She has taken nine bottles of the Nervine, but no other medicine of any kind. Knox, Ind., Jan. 5, "95. H. W. Hostetter.

A most annoying habit, and one that many well educated people arcwont to indulge in, is that of seeking to force their children into a higher grade at school than they are mentally capable of handling. The superintendent, principals and teachers of the Brazil schools inform us that they are greatly annoyed in this manner. A child fails to pass a certain grade, and with all a child's ambition and keen susceptibility, is very anxious to go on wilh bis or her class. The parents' sympathies are aroused and they seek the superintendent or others in authority in such matters and request that formality be tct aside and their child passed. Yet in many instances, these same persons assert that the schools of today ar? ail red tape and a failure while thfy themselves would willingly encourage this, and get angry when refus ed. Nothing could prove a gi eater detriment than to force.it into a room beyond it fitness and capa bility. Again, if the supcrinteu dent should graiit ?u.hartqu s, it would simply be placing a premium on shiftless ness and ignorance A boy can play during school hours and swagger through school in a way that ruins all discipline and system. Don't expect it, parentsyou can avert all this by assisting your children with their lesson 3 at home. Brazil Times. .kntlily I'ain-w iin 'l Y.y Us. Miles' Pain Pills.

FARM BURNING.
A Dirrcrous Bog Fire In Northern Indiana. Aithiiugh the paat or bog fired in Black f rl county have attracted conduit uible attention, and are a matt r if public notoriety it is not g i.eral ! know n that since last May the KiMiy kind of a fire has been in progress on the thirty-acre firm of William Grimes in Washington township, thirteen miles from this city. The fire started from some logs which were burned on the farm. At times the peat has burned fiercely, the flames shooting through cracks in the earth. Then again it would die down and smoulder until fanned up by the wind again. In some places the peat has burn ed to a depth of three or four feel while all over the farm not Jes? than a fout of peat has been burned out. A thin crust of earth covers most of the burned area whila here and l here are depressions where the earth has crumbled in. Those who have seen such crumblings say that it is a most beautiful sight. First, the deadened noise o the falling earth was heard and then a shower of sparks and steam arise to a great distance from the, ground. The great drought during the ummerhas been favorable for the progress of the flames. The heavy rainfall a short time ago failed to do much towardsjextinguhing the fire but had a most peculiar effect other wise. As the rain fell the water ran into the fire, causing a sputter mg, which was distinctly heard, over the field. After the rain a heavy fog arose and enveloped the tarm for some time. There is considerable danger, more than one would think, from the fire. Over most of the burning territory is a crust of earth, which will scarcely support its own weight Many times persons in the act of crossing the crust of the earth were warned just as they were about to step onto the frail covering. Had they done so they would have been horribly if not fatally burned. Mr. Grimes is not very much elated over the presence of the fire on his land. He has not been able to cultivate it, and is o"ut of pocket what he would have cleared off of crops which he intended to raise The earth will be left a chawed mass and considerably lower than ihe adjoining land. Even when the fire is extinguished it will be a long time before it can be put in a tillable shape. A lot of valuable timber has been burned. Fences have gone down and at times farm buildings have been threatened when the wind was high and fannedthfl flames. All that Mr. Grimes can do is to wait until the fire sub sides, but he has no idea when that will occur. Muncie Times.
