have I Paid the Printer
Some questions are easier asked
than answered. The above ques-
tion sometimes, is of that class, as
it cannot always be answered as it
should. A word to the * ise issuf-
ficient.
When the cold sn >w howls round the
door,
And you, by the light of the taper.
Sit close by the evening fire,
Enjoying the evening paper-
Just think of him whose work thus
helps
To wear away the winter.
And put this query to yourself—
Have I paid the Printer?
From east and west—north and south.
From lands beyond the water,
He weekly brings you "lots of news,"
From every nook and quarter;
No slave on earth toils more than be,
Through summer's heat and winter;
How can you for a moment, then,
Neglect to pay the Printer ?
Your other bills you promptly pay
Wherever you may go. sir—
The butcher for his meat is paid,
For sundries is the grocer.
The tailor and the shoemaker,
The hatter and the vinter—
All get theirs—then why neglect
To settle with the Printer?

IA gentleman writing to Le Chaaseur
Prancals describes a singular phenom
enon observed by htm on a recem
hunting trip to the Pyrenees. In th*
early morning of a gray and lowertn*
day he heard a muffled, whirring
sound like that of the propeller of a
distant aeroplane, and looking at the
sky, beheld the soft glow of two
lights—electric bulba, apparently, of
five or six candle power.
But to his amaxement the supposed
ship of the air resolved itself on i
closer approach Into two large bird'
with softly luminous plumage. A luck-
•hot brought them to earth and it wa
found that the extinction of life d!
not dlmlnlah the luminosity, which
seemed resident In the feathers.
In Commenting on this case. La Na
ture declares that the phenomenon !«
by no means rare and is susceptible t"
a very simple explanation. The bin*
has merely soiled its feathers by con
tact with some luminlferous anim*
or vegetable matter such as decaytr
flsh or touchwood. The latter sourc
Is especially probable, as owls, or
which the luminosity has been- sp*
cially observed, commonly live in ho'
lows of trees and thus particular'-

iJoubdeas many picturesque legend
of wandering lights and flitting flrf
ascribed to ghostly, demoniac or an
gelic visitants, according to the prejn
dices of the observer, may be eaally
explained in this simple manner.
Woman Finally Recovers
From Nervous Breakdown
Impoverished nerves destroy many
people before their time. Often be-
fore .•> sufferer realizes what the
trouble is, he is on the verge of a
complete nervous breakdown, it
is of the utmost importance to keep
your nervous system in pood con-
dition. as the nerves are the source
of all bodily power. Mrs. Anna
Kounz, an Mechanic St., Pueblo,
Colo., says:
"For inany years I suffered from
nervous prostration; I was unable
to do any house work and doctors
failed to help me. Remedies I
tried from druggists did not do
me a particle of good. A neighbor
told my husband about
Dr. Miles' Nervine
and he procured a bottle. After the
first few doses I showed a marked
improvement and after taking two
bottles 1 was entirely cured. 1 have
been perfectly well for years and
cannot praise Dr. Miles Nervine
too highly." *
If you are troubled with loss ot
appetite, poor digestion, weakness,
inability to sleep; if you are in a
general run down condition and
unable to hear your part of the
daily grind of life, you need some-
thing to strengthen your nerves.
You may not realise what is the mat-
ter with you, but that is no reason
why you should delay treatment.
Dr. Miles' Nervine
has proven its value in nervous dis-
orders for thirty years, and merits
a trial, no matter how many other
remedies have failed to help you.
Sold by all druggists. If first bottle
falls to benefit your money Is returned.
