Head Ache
Sometimes?
If so, it will interest you to
know that it can be stopped
with Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills;
and without any bad after
effects, and this without dan-,
ger of forming a drug habit or
having your stomach disar
ranged. They positively con
tain no opium, morphine, co
caine, chloral, ether or chloro
form in any form. Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain,
and leave only a sense of relief.
iThe reason for this is explained
by the fact that headache comes
from tired, irritable, turbulent,"
over-taxed brain nerves. Anti
Pain Pills soothe and strength
en these nerves, thus removing
the cause. They are harmless
when taken as directed.
"We use Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills
for the cure of headache, and we
think that there is nothing that will
equal . them. They will cure the
severest spell of nervous or sick
headache in a. very few minutes. I
am of a nervous temperament, and
occasionally have spells when my
nerves seem to be completely exhaust
ed, and I tremble so I can scarcely
contain myself. At these times I al
ways take the Anti-Pain Pills, and
they quiet me right away. It is re
markable what a soothing effect they
have upon the nerves."

MISTAKES ABOUT NICOTINE
Doesn't Accumulate in Pipestems and
Causes Very Little Poisoning.
There are probably few subjects
about which more people are misin
formed than nicotine.
Nearly everyone speaks of the dark
brown substance which has about the
consistency and color of molasses and
accumulates in the stems of pipes as
nicotine. It is not nicotine, and it
has no nicotine in it.
"It is nothing but tar tobacco tar,
distilled from the smoke, just as coal
tar is distilled from coal and pine tar
from pine wood. One might swallow
all the tobacco tar thata rank clap
pipe contains without serious harm.
If he swallowed the same quantity of
nicotine he would probably be dead
inside of five minutes.
It . is the tar that stains the pipe,
and it is the same tar that stains the
cigarette smoker's fingers. It is also
found inside the nostrils of one who
inhales smoke, and it puts an indelli
ble stain on mustaches. , ,
It is true that tobacco contains more
nicotine than any other known plant,
but nicotine is not a plentiful article
in nature. The rankest Kentucky to
bacco contains less than 8' per cent
of nicotine, and the finer grades of
tobacco, such as Havana, have less
than 2 per cent. ' f i ' '
One often hears cigarettes con
demned because the smoker gets so
much more nicotine through inhaling
the smoke. The fact is that a cigar
ette smoker , gets almost no nicotine,
because the tobacco of which cigar
ettes are made contains next to no
nicotine. ., : Turkish and Egyptian to
baccos carry only , a trace of nicotine,
and some of them none at all.
No matter how much of this deadly
element a tobacco contains, the .
smoker does not get it. Nicotine is "
not extracted by burning the tobacco.
Burning destroys it entirely.
One often hears of nicotine poison
ing, but it is very doubtful if there
is any such thing. When one is
poisoned with nicotine he dies, and
he doesn't get poisoned by smoking.
There are plenty of good reasons why
smoking should not be carried to
excess, but nicotine poisoning Is not
one of them. New York Sun.
A Patent Fisherman
"A friend of mine," says ex-President
Cleveland, "was once traveling
on foot through a section of West
Virginia, well known for its excellent
fishing grounds, when he chanced up
on an angler of the old school a ven
erable old countryman who, as he
sat on the bank, looked as if time and
the world might pass away without
disturbing his content. 'Have you
fished long in this stream?' pleasant
ly asked .my friend. 'Twenty-three
years,' was the laconic response of
the fisherman, who scarcely- looked
up. 'Get "many bites? was the next
question. . Still gazing intently along
the rod he held" the old angler replied :
'Two years ago in this very spot I
had a fine bite.'" s
