DO YOU°SLEEP? NSOMNIA, the great curse of the Ameri- can people, is the direct result of Nervous Exhaustion, consequent upon Overwork, Worry, and Mental Strain. The common recourse of the sufferer, is to Opium, Mor- phine, Chloral, Bromides and other drugs whose continued use is fatal. VERVE ONTAINS none of these substances. It is purely vegetable, acts directly upon the exhausted nerve centres, and by its tonic action, produces a healthful, natural sleep, with no after effects. Two or three doses have cured permanently cases of Insomnia, of months’ standing. In Neuralgia, Nervous Irritability, Headache, Mental Depression, Hysteria, Loss of Energy following overwork or continued excitement, and all diseases of the Nervous is of system it inesti- mable value. Merchants and Business men, Clergymen, Lawyers, Authors, and all persons subject to long-continued mental “labor, will find natural sleep easily at hand with this remedy in their possession. Its con- tinued use is not necessary. In most cases six or eight doses will restore tone to the nervous system and enable the sufferer to sleep without further treatment.

AND CANADA. “Do you think that I would make a very at- tractive angel ?” said a. dude, with very large ears, to a young lady. “Well, no,” she replied, puinting to his immense ears; ‘tI think your wings are a little too high up.”—Detroit Free | Press. TOO TRUE TO BE SAD. He was a busy man, and she was a society wo- man, One evening he suddenly looked up from his paper and said: ‘By the way, didn’t we have a baby in this house about the time Mid- land broad gauge went up to g8?” ‘‘ Yes,” she said, “Oscar was born the night of the Everingham reception.” ‘ Boy, was it?” he said, with a show of interest; ‘I had forgotten: must be about seven months old by this time. Where is he?” She touched a bell, a servant appeared, and she ordered Oscar to be brought into the presence of his sire, Instead of whom the weep- ing nurse appeared alone, and with many tears confessed that the infant Oscar had been kidnap- ped in the park six weeks before, and that the most careful search, aided by advertisements in the daily papers, had thus far failed to reveal his whereabouts. Thus we see that wealth is no bar- rier to sorrow, and even into the homes of the rich and the great trouble creeps with its stealthy tread, and sometimes breaks up a whole evening of enjoyment.—Detroit Free Press.
