Missouri mule named Ebeaeisr object

had been working under ground in
another section of the sub-sy for a
year sad it was a strong protest he
made r gainst leaving the surf see

suggest that it would be a goop idea to

not built so this could be done.
There was a strap on saoh side of ths

provided, and there was no lack of
volunteers. With about 75 men on
eaoh end of the rope, end all pulling

PADEREWSKTS"
BREAK DOWN
Paderewski's break-down on his
Canadian tour calls to mind how very
liable tbe great muslclsns are to nerve
exhaustion. Neuritis is the penalty of
using up the energy of motor nerve
eells faster than it can be regenerated
from food and reat. The strain pat
upon certain centers by tl e tedious
and protraoted praotioe of pianists and
violinists is very great. After a break
down rest is sbsolutely required for
reoovery. Osteopathy, If given a faith -fat
trial, will usually prevent neuritis
by freeing np any pressures that may
be impairing the nervous vitality of
the musoles Involved, as well as se
curing a normal blood suddIv for the
area of Utigue. By toning up the ;
whole system and promoting healthful I
relaxa'iou and restful sleep. Osteo pathy
does everything that can be done
to effect a cure in these oases.
