Hard to Decide
There is a story going the rounds
of the Western papers about twin
1)1 others, one of whom was de
mented and was ordered by the
court, to be committed to any asy
lum. The other* brother accom
panied him to the institution.
Soon after the twin brother- had
arrived at the asylum the sheriff
received a telegram from the su
perintendent, saying: “Two men
who look just alike here from your
county, one for commitment. One
is talking of building a railroad to
the moon and the other says the
Republican party is opposed to
trusts. Which is the crazy man : 1 '

The reporter of the Associated
Pressnt Wilmington, Del., went
considerably out of his way to put
the responsibility of the lynching
of the negro in that state upon the
South, lie was careful to declare
in the outset that the mob was led
by a Virginian, whose name and,
identity could not be ascertained, 1
nnd thnt the affair was pulled off i
“neiu the Mason and Dixon's line.' ;
The “Virginian,” it seems, did not
lack for company, there being j

Why this information? If the t
leader’s name and identity could j
not be learned how did the report- j
er know that he was a Virginian? j
What was meant by the reference i
to Mason and Dixon’s line?
These things call to mind the
fact that it is quite common in
some of our Northern exchanges,
when a lynching occurs in the
North, to refer to the habit a.shav-,
ing come from the South, whereas, ^
it was common in the Northwest

The crime of this negro boy was
particularly atrocious. He met
his victim, the half-grown daugh
ter of a preacher, on the public
read, and he left her with her
throat cut from ear to ear. The
people in the neighborhood peti
tioned the court to give a speedy
trial, but the judge refused the re
quest and put tho caso off until
October.

Dr. Miles’ Nervine Cured
Me Permanently.
Nervous prostration is the most serious ot
nervous disorders. It arises from some extra
strain, which rubs the nerves of strength,
vitality and life. The patient speedily loses
self control, is subject to frightful headaches,
faint spells, melancholia and morbid tenden
cies. Too weak to drag the thin, wasted
body around; unable to get sleep or rest, life
seems scarcely worth the living; the mind
frequently broods until it becomes unbal
anced and insanity often results. Read what
Dr. Miles’ Nervine did for Mrs. Grabill:
“I was terribly afflicted with nervous
trouble for nearly four years. I was sc, bad
at times that 1 could not help myself, nor
carry a chair across the room without giving
out. One physician attended me for a year
and a half without giving me any help what
ever and I also doctored with two others
without any good results. My father and
others wished me to try Dr. Miles’ Nervine
which, after lots of coaxing 1 did. I took six
bottles of the Nervine and some of the Nerve
and Liver Pills. I was completely cured of
my trouble and I heartily recommend it to
any woman who is suffering from a nervous
disorder. I have used Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain
Pills for headache and neuralgia with best
results. I believe flimly 'n the efficacy of the
Nerve and l.iver Pills and am fully convin
ced that Dr. Miles’ Remedies saved my
life.”—Mrs. IIattie Grahiix, Roanoke, Va.
