Nerves of the Stomach Were Weak and Inactive as Result of Nervous Prostration â€" Lost Twenty Pounds â€" Had to Take Sleeping Powders to Get Any Rest. Many people never realize that the movement and action of every organ of the human body is dependent on the energy supplied by the nervous syatem. _ When the nervous system gets run dowR there is weakness throughout the entire body. You feel tired and languid and your stomach and other digestive organs are similarly affected. Appetite falls, digestion is poor, you do not get the good of what you eat and gradually grow weaker and weaker. 0_ This process can only be stopped by such treatment as Dr. Chase‘s Nerve Food, which goes directly to create new nerve force and thereby to inviâ€" gcrate the whole human body. Mrs. Geo. S. Eillse, 46 Davidson atreet, 8t. Catharines, Ont., writes: "My husband had an attack of nervâ€" ous prostration, and, . although . he doctored for some time and tried difâ€" ferent other medicines, he could not get relief. He had to resort to sleepâ€" ing powders given him by the doctor to make him sieep. The greater parc of the trouble seemed to be with the: nerves of his stomach.

Veteran Leader of the Liberal Party Suffers â€" Attack While Dressing to Attend Church on Sundayâ€" Had Overtaxed Strength Preparing for Reâ€"opening of Parliament on Thursday . HAS FIGURED IN CANADIAN POLITICS CON TINUOUSLY SINCE 1871 Ottawa, Feb. 16. â€"While dressing tor church this morning Sir Wilfrid Laurier suffered a stroke of paralysis, from the effects of which he did not regain consciousness for some minutâ€" es. Dr. Chevrier, Sir Wilfri®‘s pbyâ€" sician, has been in attendance all day, and at 11.15 tonight his distinguishe) patient was declared to be out . of danger _ and restâ€" ing well. Mi. Gucien Giguere, Secreâ€" tary to Sir Wilfrid, reported that it will be necessary for Sir Wilfrid to vremain in bed tor some time to come, as any exertion might bring on anoth er afroke. ‘ "It is the Eind." On Sunday morning when hbe bad his first fainting attack of some minutes‘ duration he himself felt it to be the realization of the premoniâ€" tion which he had experienced and occasionally mentighed to close friends For the moment, entirely oblivious to all but the attack, he said quietly, to Lady Laurier: "It is the end." Latâ€" er, however, when he had partially recovered and was able to taik he did not spéak as thought he expected the end so soon. He seemed to think that. after all, he had weathered the attack, for when the gong rang . for luncheon he rose with the intention of appearing at the table. â€" His couragâ€" eous habit of always combatting we@akâ€" mess, in this case was the undoing, as it brought on a second stroke, or the first one, if the fainting fit in the morning is not regarded as the reâ€" sult of a slight stroke. He lapsed inâ€" to unconsciousness until five . o‘clock, but after that became conscious and seemed to gef so much better fhat his family physician, Dr. Rodoiphe Chevrier, who had been with him all day, hesitated about allowing any ilarming reports to go out as to his ~ondition. Althongh _ this improveâ€" ment lasted until midnight, the Rev. Father Lajeune administered the last rites | evening Entering the Shadows. While at midnight ther> was anâ€" other _ corebral hemorrhage. . Drs. Valin and Chevrier considered that Sir Wilfrid was holding his own, but after that he began to sink. He was completely paralyzed on the left side, and remained unconscious as he had been from early in the morning. The vulse began to weaken shortly affer noon. Evidences of Personal Affection. The news of his illness has been received with gencral regret by mem: bers of both political parties and . it was evident that among members of the Government as well as the Oppoâ€" sition there is a great personal affecâ€" tion for the stricken Chieftain. The news was a great surprise as well, because Sir Wilfrid_took part in gathâ€" erings on Saturday and seemed _ in his usual health and spirits. He has been looking forward to the present session with keen anticipation of imâ€" portant debates, his friends say, and the coming opening will be the | first one he will miss for 40 years. He is 78 years of age. but lately his health has seemed somewhat improved, alâ€" though he has had to conserve his strength and not allow unusual deâ€" mands to be made upon it. At midâ€" night it was reported that . Sir Wilâ€" trid‘s heart action was good and ihat he had been talking freely with Lady Lanrier. Keenly Interested, But Tired. Sir Wilfrid attended the meeting of the Canadian Club on Saturday, at which M. Savic discussed the rela: tions of Jugoâ€"Slavia and | Ifaly. He was deeply interested and after‘the lecture remained for a time at the clubroom with M. Savic, who explainâ€" ed in trreawr detail the situation on the Adriatic coast. Hon, N. W. Rowâ€" cli will likely be erected some where else. The committee had canvassed about 700 cows and over $4,000 in shares, Prospects look bright with a very good start. Another meeting will be held at Berlets Corner next Saturday Feb. 22nd, at 1.30 p.m. Mr. Chaimâ€" ers will likely again assist the moetâ€" ing. Mr. Dan Nafziger purchased a very fine team of h?u last week from Mr. A. Berscht, of. Wellesley. i. who was present during this af Stroke While Dressing. of the Church during the terâ€"talk, said last night that Sir Wilâ€" frid was intensely interested in the subject matter but seemed somewhat tired at the close of the conversation. Amid the _ expressions of general and sincere regret there is also . eviâ€" dent, in addition to the personal conâ€" cern, a wonder as to how the leaderâ€" less Opposition will get along during the session. A caucus will doubtless be called of all Opposition members to find some one to act as temporary leader. As most of the old associates of Sir Wilâ€" frid Laurier when in power were â€"re jected at the polls during the last elâ€" ection, and as the present Opposition is working on the theory that Union Government cannot fast, . and that ithere will be a new alignment of poliâ€" tical forces before a new _ election, there will be great care in choosing a sucessor to resign, to get someone \who will be persona grata to the farmâ€" ers as well as to the workers of Can ada. Sir Wilfrid was to have presid !ed at a convention of representatives Liberals from all parts of Canada soon after the beginning of the presâ€" ent session, and no doubt this will stlll be held. It is expected that the regrettable passing of the old Chietâ€" tain will cause even warmer interest and greater attendance at this convenâ€" tion. It must be said that the discussion of all these possibilitiecs has _ been a side issue with everyone in the Capi tal, the principal not being one of per sonal concern. Ottawa, Feb. 16â€"Sauouid Sir Wil frid recover entirely from the presont seizure, there is scarcely any doubt that he will be unable to take any ac tive part in _ Parliamentary _ duties. Hiss iliness leaves the Opposition without @ leader. In some quarters here it is thought that Hon. W. $. Fielding may take the tetmporary leadership. Problem of Parliament. Farms Wanted Powers are proposed to be granted at the approaching session of Parliament to The Solâ€" dier Settlement Board of Canada to purchase lands to be resold to qualified returned solâ€" diers settling on land. In the case of undeâ€" veloped lands the Board will be granted powâ€" ers of forced purchase at prices judicially determined. To enable soldiers to locate in any district in Ontario that they wish, the Advisory Board for the Province of Ontario desire to have filed with them a full description and lowest cash prices on a small number of select farms in each district of the Province, available for purchase. The public are hereby informed that this land is g returned soldiers, and no tenders to sell requested except for land of good quality and location, anI reasonable value, making possible the success of the soldier as a farmer. The purchase price in all cases will be fixed by the Board after the land has been inspected and valued. The information received will be treated as confidential. No commission will be charged or paid. No offer to sell will be binding on the person offering unless a sale is effected, and no obligation will be on the Board to accept any offer. 0 W. M.
