Wakeful? Sleeplessness Is a Sign of Nerve Trou ble and Should Be Looked To. There are three difterent manifesta tions of sleeplessness. First, hardly to sleep a wink all night, second, to lie awake a long time before falling asleep; third, to fall asleep soon, waking up after several hours and then find it hard to sleep again. They mean that somewhere In the nerve fibres, somewhere In the brain cells, somewhere In the blood vessels that carry blood to the brain, something Is radically wrong, and must bo righted, or the end may be worse than death. To right It, take Dr. Miles’ Nervine. Some other symptoms of nerve trou ble are: Dizziness, Headache, Back ache, Worry, Fretfulness, Irritability, Melancholy, Lack of Ambition. They indicate diseases which may lead to Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus’ Dance, Nervous Prostration, Paralysis, Insanity, Nothing will give such quick and last ing relief as Dr. Miles’ Nervine.

The entire of the Mohammeden (Moslem) clnss scheme seems to bo a kind of a fad, (the most numerous) of the population of Syria and Palestine, wo wish to give 'our readers a bird’s-eye view of three other notable classes of people, as pre pared by the Rev. Arthur ,J. Brown, D. D., Secretary of the Northern Presby terian Board of Foreign Missions, in an official report after a personal visitation of tiie Syrian Mission field, 0110 of the most exact and sucoiuot representations of tire present stato of affairs, though made in 1002. After speaking at length upou the Moslem population and influence he thus prooeeds: THE JEWS. “The Jews form the second class. Relatively they are not numerous. There are but 211,000 in Syria and 46,081 in Palestine, of whom 22,000 are in Jerusalem. I have great respeot for the intelligent and thrifty Jews in other lands, but it is impossible to have any tor those who now reside as aliens in their ancient heritage. In 1840, the great Hebrew philanthropist, Sir Moses Moiitefiore, discussed witli Mohammed Ali a plan for tire return of the Jews to Palestine, and such prominent person ages as Ludwig August Frankel, Beu- jarnin Disraeli, George Eliot, Baron Edmond de Rothschild, Dr. Max Nor- dau and others have more or less strong- > ly favored the scheme. The latest de velopment of the idea is by Dr. Theo dore Herzl, the Vienna editor, who now champions ‘the Zionist Movement.’ He thus outlines iris so heme for a Jewish state; ‘We must obtain the sovereignty over Palestine—our never to bo forgotten historical home. At the head of the movement will be two great and power ful ageuts—tiie Society of Jews and the which is being pursued with a sjieciul object, having none of tiie elements whioh made the old Phoenician colonies and tiie modern Anglo-Saxon colonies successful. The trend of Jewish migra tion is westward, and further than ever from the old land of Israel. There are about four times as many Jews now in New York City as there are in the whole of Palestine. Tens of thousands ure going to the Argentine Republic in South America. They seem to be more and more torn loose from territorial attachments.’ There is no lack of Protestant effort to convert tiie Jews of Palestine and Syria, and I visited witli sympathetic interest several of tiie costly establish ments whioh have been erected by the Christians of Europe, particularly of Great Britain. Bat the results are pain fully small. Tiie fanatical, meudioaut Jews of tiie once Promised Laud are about tiie most hopeloss missionary field that can be imagined. Tiie curse is plainly oil them and their children. THE CHRISTIANS. The Christians form tiie third class. They are divided into a motley variety of Beets. Armenians, some 00,000; Druzes in thu Lebanon and Anti-Leba non Mountains, who seceded from Islam in the 11th century, who bitterly hate and trequcntly fight their parent sti>ok, and whose numbers ure uncertainly placed at 100,000; Nusaireeyeh, a savage race of nearly 200,000 souls, holding secret doctrines and inhabiting the far northern mountains; Orthodox Greeks, 150,000, who though of Arab blood, be long to the Russian Greek Church; Jacobites, who split off from tiie Greek Church in tiie 0th century and are now connected with the birth of our religion, but I felt humiliated as 1 saw indnbi tnblo evidences of tiie rankest superstition nnd fnuntioism. The first nnd deepest impressions of tiie traveller is that Christianity is dying in the lnnd of its birth, Tlio second impression is equally painful—tlmt tlio greatest hindrance to the revival of Christianity is tlio ‘Chris tian.’ The Moslem rules tlio land whore tlio Messiah appeared, and from in numerable minarets tiie people aro dnily reminded that Mohammed nnd not Christ is the Prophet of God. And yet it was almost a relief to visit tlio Mosque of Omar in the Temple area. After the tawdry, tinsel glitter of the Church of the Holy Sopulohre, tiie os tentatious and tasteless display of gold and silver and precious stones—the statue of Mary aloue blazing with jew els said to be worth millions of dollars— the dirty, unkept appearance of walls and courts, the empty mummeries of ignorant priests and the contemptuous expression of tiie Moslem sentries—it was a relief to walk about tiie clean, spacious, orderly Mosques of Omar and ol-Aksa. Their farnishiugs and deoora- tions are rioli but chaste as compared with tiie overdone gorgeousness of tlio ‘Cliristiau’ churches. I felt moro recon ciled to Moslem occupation as I noted the solemnity and dignity of tiie Temple area which the Moslem holds, and wlJch no ‘Cliristiau’ is permitted to en ter without a permit issued by his Con sul and a Turkish attendant to see that he behaves himself. The Mohammedan certainly keeps iiis part of the sacred places iu a way more boiitting their historic associations. rupt. While there were many individ ual instances of kindness and occasion ally even of oo-operatiou, yet the hier archies were, as a rule, bitter in their opposition to Protestantism. Of course, they are supported iu this by the French Jesuits and the Russians, with whom indeed several of these sects aro now affiliated. * * The missionaries wore not permitted to preach iu the ritualistic churches of tlio ‘soots.’ They oould not work under the authority of jealous and hostile bishops and patriarchs. Tlio few righte ous men could not change tlio chamoter of tlio vast, fostering masses of corrup tion. It was essential to the preserva tion of their own spiritual lives hh well as to their influences as disciples of Christ that they should not he lost in tlio crowd of mere formalists, tlioir light hidden under the bushel of heathenism which was none the less heathen be cause it called itself 'Cliristiau.' Never was the command more applicable In come out from them anil bo ye separ ate,’ Moreover, tlio Turkish government deals witli tlio Christian sects as organ ized bodies uud not us individuals. Each 11011-Moslem soot is expected to have a corporate existence uud to have u head or other roprosoiitutivu through whom all intercourse with the Govern ment must lie had. A mail who is not connected with somo such body is an outlaw. He cannot many or hold proiHirty. Hu lias no sttyiuliiig iu the courts uud therefore 110 redress uguiust robbery or violeuoo. In Syria, tlio con vert is speedily thrust out of Ids ohuroli and becomes at 01100 an outcast. So the missionaries woro early forced to effect a Protestant organization. I11 180O, the Sultan Abdul Medjid thus recognized Protestantism as one of the legal reli gious of thu Empire iu thu Imperial Charter of Rights. This Protestant Sect, us it is called to distinguish it from otliur sects, is composed of the commu nicants connected with all the Protes tant Boards and Sooiutios in Turkuy. Of course, there is no ‘official head,’ but the‘Scot’maintains a Vokii, or agent, in Constantinople who represents tlio Protestants of the Empire in uny official communications. However unfortunate tills may be deemed in tiieory, it is an absolute uooossity under Turkish law where every man wtio is not a Moslem must be a member of some ‘sect’ whioh is recognized by tlio Government and whioh lias an official head or Vekil with whom tiie Oovornmeut can deal. * * Tiie expense should be more largely borne by the iiativo churches, as the Vekilate is for their protection rather than for that of the missionaries.” We consider Dr. Brown’s testimony as of tiie highest value, uud to one who lias never travelled iu any of tiie provin oes of preseut-day Turkey it will prove a wonderful yet quite real approxima tion to the facts as they were seen by us and may be seen by any that visit the country. And tiie many national thumbs stuck into this Turkey pie are but indices of its worth, and good fore tokens of its dismemberment oil a mo ment's notice. (To be oontinued.)

L. M. Brand, Mayor of Lawrencevillo, who was in the city yesterday, stated briefly the status of what is known as the Lawrence- ville jug law case which is attract ing just now so much attention throughout Georgia. "The status of the Lawrence- villc whiskey ordinance,” said ho, “is simply this: Lawrenceville and Gwinnett county are prohibiton ter ritories. Rose & Co., of Atlanta, were shipping jugs of whisky to Lawrenceville every day of the week, including Sunday, and the people wanted it stopped. As mayor of Lawrenceville I drafted the ordinance which was enacted with the view of checking this nui sance. The ordinance does not prevent liquor being shipped there, but imposes a license for the priv ilege. The express and railroad companies submitted to the ordi nance and declined to carry any more liquor into the town. They refused to take out the license prescribed. They found public sentiment in the town back of the ordinance and its purpose and the companies are now willing to obey it. Rose &. Co. filed a mandamus against the express company to compel it to carry the firm’s ship ments of liquor to Lawrenceville. The case was set for April 15, but I do not know when it will be tried. “Lawrenceville is not a party to the suit, hut, of course, is deeply interested. No whiskey has been shipped there since thu ordinance became a law. If the courts do not hold it valid the prohibition counties of Georgia will doubt less appeal to the general assem bly for legislation authorizing the enactment by prohibition coun ties of such ordinances or to enact some general law like that in South Carolina which makes the place of deli /ery the place of sale. I am convinced the officials of the ex press company do not care to han dle this jug business and will not do so unless compelled by law.
