Is Pe-ru-na Useful for Catarrh? Should a list of the ingredients of Pe runa be submitted to any medical ex pert, of whatever school or nationality, he would be obliged to admit without reserve that the medicinal herbs com posing Peruna are of two kinds. First, standard and well-tried catarrh reme dies. Second, well-known and gener ally acknowledged tonl) remedies. That In one or the other of these uses they have stood the test of many years' experience by physicians of different schools. There can be no dispute about this, whatever. Peruna is composed of some of the most efficacious and uni versally used herbal remedies for ca tarrhal diseases, and for such conditions of the human system as require a tonic. Each one of the principal Ingredients of Peruna has a reputation of its own In the cure of some phase of catarrh or as a tonio modiclne. The fact Is, chronic catarrh Is a dis ease which Is very prevalent. Many thousand people know they have chronic catarrh. They have visited doc tors over and over again, and been told that their case is one of chronic catarrh. It may be of the nose, throat, lungs, stomach or some other Internal organ. There Is no doubt as to the nature of the disease.-The only trouble is the remedy. This doctor has tried to cure them. That doctor has tried to pre scribe for them. No other household remedy so uni versally advertised carries upon the label the principal active constituents, Showing that ioruua hiviles 11.6 lull inspection of the critics. Still Had Them.

In the summer season many farmers eusstaln considerable loss of live stock from lightning striking wire fences and killing animals standing near. This loss can be avoided If the fence is grounded that is, a connection made between the wires and the damp soil beneath. This can be Gone by stapling a No. 0 wire along the post from top to bottom and burying the end In the ground deep enough to reach damp earth. These ground wires should be fastened to about every third post When the light ning strikes a fence thus fixed the cur rent Is conducted Into the ground In stead of being deflected Into the body of some animal. When a storm comes up stock In a field will naturally drift toward the fence for protection, especially if there are no trees In the field. The barbs on wires attract the lightning, which has been known to travel several miles on a fence before it was discharged Into the ground. Lightning takes the path of least resistance, and If the body of an animal Is standing near the fence It makes a good conductor and the charge Is deflected, with the result of t dead horse or cow. The cost and time needed to ground a wire fence Is small and need not en ter into the question, but when a valu able animal Is kfled, or maybe a whole herd, as has often happened, the cost Is then very considerable. While you may never have hnd any losses of this kind, It will not pay to put this matter off, for the next storm that comes np may be as disastrous to you as It has been to some of your neighbors. Avoid It by grounding your wire fences In time.-oodaH's Farmer. Concrete Water Tank.

The end shutters are made to go Inside the side shutters, and two of the cross-pieces, In this case, are fixed right at the end of the boards. A War on Inaecte. Miusachusetts scientists have evolved a plan for the destruction, of the gypsy and Iirown-talled moths, 'they hnv looked with dismay on. the ravages of lliL'.su moths in the foliar t'.nd hav planned what, in military science, would be a fine bit of strategy. Un able by any direct assault to destroy the nToths, the scientists bmv .-pll.ste1 t:.e aid of an army of moth pavasltes. llttlo insects that fasten Hiniiisolves on tne Moths, feed upon aiid finally de stroy them. Eight hundred thousand of these parasites have been secured, and at the right moment will be sit upon the nemy. A singular fact Is that the moths do not recognize the para sites as enemies, but seem to And their presence grateful. They give of their lift to support the parasites, and ul timately, fall a victim to their own generosity. How similar this relation ship to that which too often obtain among human beings 1 So striking Is that plmllnrlty and 9o many unpleas ant things does It recall t'-.at we almost feel pity for the destructive moths and resentment against the ungrateful para sites whose services have been Invoked. But a look at the devastation wrought by the moths gives poise and resolution, and we welcome the scientists' strategy and wish for It success. But what of the parasites? What mischief, If any, will they work In the affairs of man when they have de stroyed Ms enemies, the moths? Will It be necessary to employ another army toward the conditions of healthful veg- I " " " " vuuuuo i- instil IUU. Trees sad Lightning. There is a popular belief that certain trees are less likely than others to be struiUs by lightning, and that during a thunderstorm It Is quite safe to stand under a beech, for example, while the danger under a resinous tree or an onk is, respectively, fifteen or twenty tlmoa greater. This Is disputed In a recent writing by Dr. A. W. Bothwlek In his I "Notes of the Royal Botanical Garden of Edinburgh." The doctor Bajs that j no tree Is Immune, and the beech Is struck quite as frequently as any other species. Apparently the taller trees lu a neighborhood are the ones-most like ly to be struck. Contrary to what Is believed by some people, the cells are not "ruptured or torn by the formation of steam, as might happen If the heat ing by the electric current was very great The cells collapse and shrink up, but are never torn." The root sys tem does not seem to be ever damaged by lightning. Prevents rtanway. After being trained to pass locomo tives, bicycles, etc., wluiuiit Ehylugi the horse must now be broken In to automobiles . In fact, the horse has de v e 1 p e d a' new prank, called "auto p hob la , " making him unsafe espe cially for la dles to drive. Let him see bltnos tjie house, the machine coming, let him hear it, let it pass him slowly nt the other side of the road the effect is likely to be the same. He shies, he rears, breaks his harness and throws the occupants, the carriage and h'lmself Into the ditch. The horse cannot see In front of him only to the right or left. A California man thinks the safest Nan is to let him see noth ing at all. .Ie suggests enclosing the eyes in the novel bridle blind shown here, which he recently patented. A pair of blinds are attached to the bri dle. Nonnolly these blinds remain open. When the driver sees an ap proaching automobile he pulls on . strap which extends to the driver's seat ond the blinds are folded over the horse's eyes, completely obscuring his vision. The danger of the horse be coming frightened and runulng away Is thus reduced to a minimum and the occupants assured of safety. Waifon Rond Bridge. ' State supervision of all bridges erect ed Is proposed by State Engineer Fred erick Skene of New York. v That gen tleman has drawn up a proposed law covering the matter. He would require his approval, as well as the approval of the county engineer, of the plans and specifications of every bridge ex ceeding $500 In cost to be built by a town. He also recommends that con tracts for such bridges be required to be awarded to the lowest bidder, after the work has been properly advertised, and, finally, that the approval of the State engineer be required before pny inent for a completed bridge Is made. There Is a low lu that State providing that the assistance of the State engi neer may be Invoked to superintend such constructions, but It has been Ig nored by the counties and towns, and contracts have been Irregularly award ed, with the result that there are many Inferior structures. Such a law as that proposed would be the means of correcting the evils of the existing sys tem. Animals and Pllea. To protect animals from the annoy once of tiles the following preparation Is recommended : Two-thirds linseed oil. one-tli I rd crude carbolic add. Apply with a swub to the tips of the hair, es pecially about the horns, and the unlmal will not be bothered with flies of any kind for n week. The preparation. It Is asserted, Is excellent for horses, an swering the same purpose. 'The linseed oil prevents the hair from coming out, and also retains the carbolic acid. Another remedy Is to tuke two 01 three small bandfuls of walnut leaves or pennyroyal, on which pour two or three quarts of cold water. Let It In fuse over night, pour the whole next morning Into a kettle and boll for fif teen minutes. When cold It Is fit for use. Moisten a sponge with It, and be fore the horse goes out of the stable let those parts which are most Irrita ble be smeared with the liquid. Leather from Frog Skins. There la some leuther mude from frog skins In this country, and American novelties made of this leather Include pocketbooks, card cases and similar things. In France some children' hoes are made of this leather Malaria is due to impurities in the blood which destroy the rich, healthful qualities of the circulation, and reduce it to a weak, watery fluid. The body is then deprived of its necessary nourishment and strength, and is unable to resist the countless disorders that assail it, and the general system Buffers in consequence. The appetite fails, digestion is weakened, chills and slight fever are frequent, while the sufferer loses energy and ambition. Boils, skin eruptions, and some times sores and ulcers follow when the blood becomes deeply polluted with the malarial germs. Both a tonic and blood purifier are needed to cure Malaria, and S. S. S. is best fitted for this work. It is the most perfect of all blood purifiers and at the same time an invigorating, healthful tonic. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation, and removes every trace of impurity or poison, and gives to the blood the health-sustaining qualities it needs. It cures Malaria thoroughly and per manently because it removes from the blood the germs and poisons which produce the disease, and while doing this tones up and strengthens every part of the system.

After straining and twisting for a con siderable time the operator frequent ly ends by losing his temper and de stroying the bite of the screw, which remains fixed as tightly as ever. With the aid of a pair of pinchers, however, the affair Is quite a simple one. Plnce the screwdriver In position and then catch hold of the blade with the pinch ers Just above the head of the screw. Tress the screwdriver firmly and at the same time twist round the blade with the pinchers. The tightest screw will yield Immediately to this sort of persuasion. What a Poultry Man Says About 20-Mule Team Borax. As I am in the poultry business, I had ten white chicks to wash and prepare for a show. I used "20-Mule Team" Soap for washing the birds, and I can say from years of experience washing white birds, never before have I found a soap or Borax jthat cleaned my birds so fine and easy. I had a great deal of comment on my birds being so white J. A. Dinwiddie, Newmarket, Tenn. Local agents wanted. Write for money niuking plan Kind Deed.
