this letter from Mrs. Thos. Sommers, Clif-

"Last fall I was in a very serious con-
dition suffering .from nervousness and
weakness, I got so had at last that I could
hardly move around, and despaired of ever
getting well. Seeing Milburn's Heart and
Nerve Pills highly recommended for such
conditions I purchased a box.
"Before I had taken half of it I could
notice an improvement in my condition and
when I had used two boxes I was cona
.pletely cured.
"it was wonderful how these pills took
away that.dreadful feeling of nervousness
and gave me strength.
."I recommended them to my neigh-
bor who was troubled with nervousness,
and they cured her, too. We all think there
is nothing equal .to Milburn's Heart and

JUST SLID OFF THE TRACK.
Pemeliar incident In Connection
With a Muilrencl Accident. "
"You see some unaccountable accidentS
In railroading," said a Boston railroad
man the other day. "Some years ago I
worked ou the old Maine Central, when
Payson Tucker -God rest his soul, for
he was a generous employer and the
best of men -was manager of the line. It
was in the days when they were bringing
the road up to date, and nothing was
being spared in expense ou roadbed or
rolling stook.
"One day the Boston express ran lute
Waterville and after the regular ten
minutes for refreshments started for Au-
gusta, She hadn't gone 50 yards before,
eitnilY, gently, even complacently, die en-
gine went off the track as calmly as
though that was the way she usually did
things, A . hasty examination showed
that half of the flange on one of the for-
ward wheels of the pony truck had bro-
iteti off. They sent posthaste for an-
other truck, jackedup the engine and
, put it in, place of, the injured one, and
the train was soon on its way again.
Then they started to find out the 'place
where the flange had dropped off.
"The road runs across the Kennebec
Just north of the railroad shops,,and from
the shops to the station it is a perfectly
straight track. It was supposed that the
break had occurred somewhere on that
straight line, as it seemed impossible for
the engine to hold the track on a curve
with, only half a flange on its front wheel.
It wasn't there, however, and a system-
atic search up the line was ordered, and
something like 30 miles away, near New-
port, it was finally discovered by a track
walker.
"Up and doWn" .Steep grades, round
,sharp curves and across a river had that
engine run in that condition, and filially,
after passing through rail work to make
a sound engine shudder, it had -hopped a
straight piece of tack when hardly more
than moving and When the only thing
destroyed or damaged was time. The
•fearful accident that. might .well .have
happened, it has always. seemed. to me,
must have been averted by what the law
would term .an net of God."

THE CLINTON NEW ERA
A PRACTICAL DEFINITION.
The Rifliculty of Tolling the Mean..
Ing of iluranity” I WC! rdN.
"HOW to Bafeguard One's Sanity" is
the subject of an article In The Century
by tho Rev. J. M. Buckley, D. D., LL.
D., author of "Christian Science and
Other .Superstitions." In it he gives a
practical definition of the word insanity.
In my childhood there called at our
family residence a gentleman whose re-
ception as a person of distinction and a'
certain intentness with which he was re-
garded by all attracted my attention.
After awhile he beckoned me to his side
and told .zne of his vast estate, its lawns,
fine old trees and streams, his Vireo and
Minting dogs, the spacious halls of the
mansion. adorned ay works of art and
his sou birds from every clime aud in-
vited me to spend a month with hirla
promising me a pony. He threw a even •
over me by his strangely expressive eye
end glowing words. After he had gone
I said to my mother, "When may r go to
see .those wonderful things and get my
.pony?" She. answered sadly: "Never,
ray son. 'The poor man is deranged."
At my request for an explanation she
added, "He is insaue, is crazy,. a luna-
tic," The mystery was not dispelled, but
gradually the memory of the incident
was overlaid by boyish sports • and
studies.
Three years afterward was opened the
great hospital for the Insane erected by
the state of New Jersey at Trenton. In
'company ,with relatives I was .conducted
through a ward and looked curiously
upori persons abstractedly gazing, talking
at random, moaning as it in grief or
pain or laughing for no apparent reason.
Passing alongthe corridor, suddenly
• trembled; for before me, addressing an
imaginary audience, • Stood the man wha
• •had. charmed 'mea No one listened to
him, and as we approached an. Attendant
led him to hie room,' from which came.
. the. words: "I am God: Mortal men,
bow 'down before me.".
In that instant I saw what it is to he
• "insane," "deranged," "alienated," "era-
. zy,".."mad," "a lunatia" NO dictionary
was necessary.
Since then I have served on boards. of
management of such Institutions, includ-
ing that In 'which this' scene occurred,
have attended courses of lectures on the
.subject and • consulted the best authori-
ties, hnd. I do not wonder that Ilene of
the teachers of my childhood could define
insanity, far no definition exists that in,
eludes all that thisword.. suggesta.and.

'the well known alergyman; with' a • rem-

were and that they had come to the city

'stand up and soon pronounced them one.
"There was an awkward pause tine;
the. ceremony, during Which the groom.
shifted uneasily from . one foot to the

clear his throat, he said': ' •
"'1 suppose this Yere thing costs. some-
