Weakness means Nerve Strength or Nerve Weakness nothing more Pos itively not one weak heart in a hundred is in it self actually diseased It is almost always a hidden tiny little nerve that really is all at fault This obscure nerve the Cardiac or Heart Nerve simply needs and must have more power more Stability more controlling more governing strength Without that the Heart must continue to fail and the stomach and kidneys also have these sam3 controlling nerves This clearly explains why as a medicine Dr Ehoops Restorative has in the past done so much for weak and ailing Hearts Dr Shoop first sought the cause of all this painful palpitating suffocat ing heart distress Dr Snoops Restorative this popular prescription is alone directed to these weak and wasting nerve centers It builds It

Advice vcfsr Gt From His Bosa In Apprentice Days Tin miti v as working on the side of a steepl sloping roof All of a sudden his fi II pod and with a groan he began to slide down slowly toward the edge As lie slid he clutched with tense fingers H the tin but It was smooth It cifercd him no hold and his speed gradually but surely Increased As in a silting posture like a tobog ganer the man continued his deadly slide lie began to pray in a loud an guished voice Memory as If In answer to his pray er flashed across his brain the words Spread out The man instantly lay flat on his back spreading arms and legs to their widest angle making himself as much as possible like a starfish And his speed at once decreased The addi tional frktlon surface acted like a brake A few feet from the edge of the roof he came to anchor Help lie then shouted But the slight movement of shouting acted like a push and he slipped down a few inches more Help And again he slid a little But this time help came A rope was thrown and the man climbed back to safety He wiped the dews of terror from his brow My boss in my apprentice days he said told me if I ever started sliding down a roof slope to spread out and It would stop me I didnt believe him but by jingo he was right The man smiled and sighed musing on his long dead boss Then he crawl ed back to his dangerous work on the steep slope of the roof Philadelphia Bulletin A LOST ART Secret of the Tools Used by the Incaa and the Aztecs What was the combination of met als from which the Egyptians Aztecs and the Incas of Peru manufactured their tools and arms Though each of these nations reached a high state of civilization none of them ever discov ered iron in spite of the fact that the soil of all three countries was largely Impregnated with it But they substi tuted for it a combination of metals that had the temper of steel and the secret of the combination is lost to mankind Humboldt tried to discover the lost art by analyzing a chisel found in an ancient Inca silver mine but all he could make of it was that it appeared to be a combination of a small portion of tin with copper No present known way of combining these two metals will give the hardness of steel so there must have been something else In the chisel which Humboldt missed Aud these ancient races were able to prepare pure copper so that it equaled the temper of the finest steel produced at the present day by the most scien tific process With their bronze and copper instruments they were able to quarry and shape the hardest stone such as granite and porphyry and even cut emeralds The ancient peo ples must have independently discov ered the art of tempering copper and yet it Is a secret that baffles modern scientists of the whole civilized world New York Times

off 400000 oysters It has carried them off bodily as a thief would do The minute seeds of this weed float up the Englisli chan nel in the current of the gulf stream they settle on oysters in the Breton beds of Morbihan Quiberon and Belle Isle and they grow to the size of a ducks egg They are full of water but at maturity the water evaporates and air takes its place The egg shaped seaweed is then a balloon and like a balloon it lifts its oyster from the bot tom and bears it out to sea Walking In New York Men walk more rapidly in the streets of New York city than in any other city in the

THE MYSTERY OF MARS Old but Unsolved Problem Is Thcr Animal Lifo on the Planet With a planet so old as Mars and so far along In the process of life ex tinction the conditions of life would be severe and only a highly Intellectual and scientifically developed race could endure and master them The engi neering skill aud constructive capucily to control the annual floods from tin poles store the waters and build the thousands of miles of huge canals would require scientific knowledge be yond that possessed by us at the pres ent time and financial resources In ex cess of those we have yet accuinulat ed The nation that finds the digging of a little ditch at Panama so great a task would be helpless in the face of such a problem as these thousands of miles of Martian canals if indeed ca nals they be Yet In view of the greater life age of Mars such higher intelligence would be natural In the regular process of development as suming that it has ever been the abode of Intellectual life Scientists are In the main In a re ceptive state on this subject They arc not ready to admit that the exist ence of life on that planet has been proved They do not deny It but call for greater proof than a plausible the ory Among others than scientists there is In the main a disposition not to accept the Martian human life theory or the theory of life on any of the thousands of spheres that wheel and glisten in illimitable space They seem to think that such a theory con flicts with religion and dwarfs man and his importance in the scheme of creation This seems to be a very narrow view to take since it appears to set bound upon the infinite power and creative desires of the Almighty whose great scheme of mortal and immortal life is not necessarily confined to a single planet or the few billions of human beings who are born and die upon it As to dwarfing the importance of man a few billions more added to the bil lions on earth would make little differ ence Man is at best a small and In significant creature but if all embrac ing wisdom power and love takes so licitous note of him it would be limit ing those infinite qualties to say that one planet must be his abiding place Therefore the question of human in telligence on Mars or any other planet of the solar system or the other great systems in i emote space should be purely and simply a scientific one tc be accepted as true only when proved but not to be rejected through senti ment or for any other reason whatever except lack oT proof St Louis Star An Oriental Blessing A well known representative froa China who was a guest at a wedding in a capital city was approached after the ceremony by the best man and jocularly asked to go over to the young couple and pronounce a parental blessing The obliging dignitary com

twenty live man children offspring present you with twenty five times twenty five grand children and may these grandchil dren But the little bride grew hysterical about this time and the oriental bless ing was ended amid the laughter of the guests Ladles Home Journal A Cowboy Spider Faking aside said the nature stu dent there is in New Zealand a cow boy spider This creature throws a coil of
