Chiis. W. Bon-man, 1st Lieut, and
A.ijt. 4th M. S. M. Cav. Vols., writes
from Lanhiin, Md., as follows:
"Though somewhat averse to patent
medicines, and stiU more averse to be
coming a professional affidavit man, it
seems only a plain duty in the present
instance to add my experience to the
columns already written concerning the
curative powers of Peruna.
"I have been particularly benefitted by
its use for rolds in the head and throat.
I have able to fully cure myself of a most
severe attack in forty-eight hours by its
use according to directions. I use it as a
preventive whenever threatened with an
attack.
"Members of my family also use it
for like ailments. We are recommend
ing it to our friends."

Short Kins.
There Is hardly a king In Christen
dom whose wife does not overtop him
by a bead.
The English king Is quite six inches
shorter than Queen Alexandra.
The czar, a little uinn, is overtopped
a full head by the czarina.
Kaiser Wilbelm is of the medium
height, but the German empress Is tall,
and that is why the proud kaiser will
never consent to be photographed be
side his wife unless she sits while he
stands.
The king of Italy, short and squat,
hardly comes up to the shoulders of the
tall, athletic Queen Helena.
The king of Portugal, though fatter.
Is less tall than his queen. ,
Even the Prince of Wales Is shorter
a good four Inches thnn the princess.
And the young king of Spain Is sev
eral inches shorter than his queen.
A count of the unoccupied houses In
Ixndon shows 40,0(59. That is one house

Her Book Diary.
She held up the fat little red leather
book for her friend to see.
"No not a diary. I kept one once,
but I burned It long ago. My father
gave me this when I was 13, and show
ed me how to keep it
"It Is my list of books I have read.
I call it my book of books. Mere Is
the first entry: 'Westward Ho," by
Charles Kiagsley double-starred be
cause I have read It three times: a
star means rereading. Underlined, too,
because when I looked the list over at
the end of the year It was one of my
favorites. A little circle after the title
that's because It was a work of fic
tion that set me hunting fact, In his
tory and biography.
"Not all the marks In my code were
marks of honor, though. Look st the
cross after number nine; that means
trash. And there, after number eleven

didn't like it. Father enjoined me to
be honest with my black marks. lie

to literary pretentiousness." St. Louis

I.onsr Way from Nowhere.
The most remote mission station In
the world is on Hersehel Island, In the
far northwest corner of the Dominion

2,000 miles away. Consequently the

manner and habits,' and there is a
growing desire for instruction.

"Once he attended, In consultation
with three confreres;-another patient.
This patient finally died. After death,
as the physicians discussed the case to
gether, one of them said :
" 'Since quick burial is necessary, we
might inter the body temporarily. I

"Dr. X smiled.

DISEASED
AND SYSTEM DISORDERED
Catarrh is not merely aa inflammation of the tissues of the" head and
throat, as the symptoms cf ringing noises in the ears, mucous dropping back
into the throat, continual hawking and spitting, etc., would seem to Indi
cate ; it is a blood disease in which the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involved. Catarrh is due to the presence of an excess
of uric acid in the blood. The Liver, Kidneys and Bowels frequently be
come torpid and dull in their action and instead of carry-in" off the refuse
nd waste of the body, leave it to sour and form uric acidin the system.
This is taken up by the blood and through its circulation distributed to all
parts of the system. These impurities in the blood irritate and inflame
the different membranes and tissues of the body, and the contracting
of a cold Will start the secretions and other disgusting and disagreeable
symptoms of Catarrh. As the blood goes to all parts of the bodythe ca
tarrhal poison affects all parts of the system. The head has a tight, full
feeling, nose continually stopped up, pains above the eyes, slight fever
comes and goes, the stomach is upset and the entire system disordered and
