SS Nervousness Nervousness knocks at the door of every man and woman under the pres- ent day strain. Its health shattering force is plainly evident in every direction you may look. In this ambitious age no- body seems able to resist the temptation of overdoing until exhausted nature rebels and is avenged by the nervous prostration that follows. At this serious stage—when you are liable to become the victim of fever or other prevalent disease—when notonly the nerve forces must be restored but also the impaired system strengthened and rebuilt, you will find Pabst Extract the Best Tonic because it combines the quieting and tonic effects of the choicest hops with the nutritive and digestive elements of rich barley malt. Hops contain those tonic properties which both soothe and build up the nervous system. ‘They induce sweet, relreshing sleep, while the nourishment offered by the pure extract of barley malt, being in predigested form, is easily assimilated by the blood and carries in it those elements that quickly rebuild the del- icate nervous substances and tissues. At the same time an appetite is created and your system is furnished the power todraw quicker and greater energy from what you eat. Pabst Extract The Best Tonic builds up and strengthens. This liquid food in predigested form is welcomed by the weakest stomach. It revitalizes the nerves and restores energy, while the phosphates furnished from nature's own warehouse rebuild and revive the tired brain.

A Victim of the Trusts. The Parting FTER so much of art, pictures, statues, rich and towering churches, And nature's infinite splendid sights, my south Italian mountain towns—Agnone, Sala, Acri and Cosenza— Sticks in my mind one simple scene, of cheerful fond intent— befitting not the expense of many lines: A teacher scarcely old, a traveler, seer of sights and observer of men and their ways By a group of youths at eve in the open street surrounded. Of these it pleased looks, their manners, easy, free, full of cheerful resolves ‘Their wit, brightness, mirth, courtesy, confidence, outstretched hands, with or without words— And he, the elder, pleased just as much, easy and confident as they, ‘Toward dusk in the street, before the hotel, bidding good-by; Saying only, “Good-night, good-night, we shall sce each other again."—W. E. Davenport, in the Century. R a series of clever puns we take these stanzas by S. A. Kenefick in the Ohio Magazine: ‘The Auto-Crat—ah, think of that!—he went a fearful paces He did not smile, though all the while he had a mobile face; He took no interest in Man, yet sought the human race. “The Auto-Crat—oh, think of that!—I never saw him laugh. In wreckage strewn along the road he wrote his auto-graph; A borrid smnell were suited well to be his epitaph. ‘The-Auto-Crat—oh, think of that!—upon his dying day ‘The only word I overheard he hadn't “auto” say: ‘Twas gasolene that brought about his sad auto da fe. The Auto-Crat—oh, think of that!—his end was swift and sharp; T hope it hurt—"iwas his desert—though I don't wish to earp— Perhaps he's in a sweeter land and plays an auto-harp. Beauty, Simplicity, Utility combined in Rad-Bridge Scores. GOOD Samaritan, passing an apartment- house in the small hours of the morning, no- ticed a man leaning limply against the doorway. “What's the matter?” he asked. “Drunk?” “Yep.” do you live in this house?” “Yep. “Do you want me to help you up-stairs ?” ep. With much difficulty he half dragged, half carried the drooping figure up the stairway to the second floor. “What floor do you live on?” he asked. “Is this it? “Yep. Rather than face an irate wife who might, perhaps, take him for a companion more at fault than her spouse, he opened the first door he came to and pushed the limp figure in. ‘The good Samaritan groped his way down-stairs again. As he was passing through the vestibule he was able to make out the dim outlines of another an, apparently in worse condition than the first oni “What's the matter?” he asked. “Are you drunk, too? “Yep,” was the feeble reply. “Do you live in this honse, too?” “Yep. “Shall I help you up-stairs?” Yep.” The good Samaritan pushed, pulled and carried him to the second floor, where this man also said he lived. He opened the same door and pushed him in. As he azain reached the front door he discerned the shadow of a third man, evidently worse off than cither of the other two. He was about to approach him when the object of his solicitude lurched out into the street and threw himself into the arms of a passin policema: “For heavens sake, off'cer,” he gasped, “protect me from that man, He's done nothin’ all nieht long but carry me upstairs 'n throw me down th’ elevator shaf’."—Everybody’s. 702 THE THE LIQUEUR LIQUEUR OF ‘ OF POLITE POLITE SOCIETY Hs SOCIETY LIQUEUR Peres Chartreux —GREEN AND YELLOW— This famous cordial, now made at Tar- ragona, Spain, was for centuries distilled by the Carthusian Monka( Peres Chartreux) at the Monastery of La Grande Chartreuse, France, and known throughout the world as Chartreuse, The above cut represents the bottle and label employed in the putting up of the article since the Monks’ expul- sion from France, aud it is now known as Liqueur Péres Chartroux (the Monks, however, still retain the right to use tho old bottle and label as well), dis- tilled by the same order of Monks, who have securely guarded the secret of its manufacture for hundreds of years, and who alone possess a knowledge of the ele- ments of this delicious nectar, Atérstclass Wine Merchants, Grocers, Hotels, Cafes Bitjer & Co.,45 Broadway, New York, N.Y, Sole Agents for United States.
