HEALTHY WOMEN.
Mary J. Kennedy, manager of Ar

Mississippi Exposition, at Omaha,
Neb., writes the following of Peruna,
as a cure lor
that common
phase of sum
mer catarth,
known as indi
gestion. Miss
Kennedy says:
"I found the
continual
change of diet
incidental to
eight years'
traveling com
pletely upset
my digestive
system. In
consulting sev
eral physicians
they decided 1
suffered with
catarrh of the
stomach.
"Their pre
scriptions did
not seem to
help me any,
so, reading of
the remarkable
cures effected
by the use of Peruna I decided to try
it and soon found myself well repaid.
"I have now used Peruna for about
three months and feel completely re
juvenated. I believe 1 am permanent
ly cured, and do not hesitate to give
unstinted praise to yonr great remedy,
Peruna."
The causes of summer catarrh are
first, chronic catarrh; second, derange
ments of the stomach and liver; third,
impure blood.
Such being the case anyone who
knows anything whatever about the
operations of Peruna can understand
why this remedy is. a permanent cure
for summer catarrh. It eradicates
chionic catarrh from the system, invig
orates the stomach and liver, cleanses the
blood of all impurities, and therefore
permanently cures' by removing the
cause a host of maladies peculiar to
hot weather. The cause being removed
the symptoms disappear of themselves.

For the extraction of rubber from the
rubber tree a new process consists in
cutting up the bark and roots and soak

composes the woody portions without
affecting the India rubber. In this way
the rubber and bark and roots are sep
arated. An extensive building has recently
been opened In Leeds (England) to be
devoted to the development of cloth

In Strasburg an engineer has Invent

As the result of twenty-qine years of
experiments at Itothamsted, England,
it is f.bown that in the winter months
more than half of the amount of rain

becomes available for the supply of
springs, while in the summer only one
quarter of the rainfall is absorbed by
the soil. The maximum quantity of
water in the soil is at a depth of about
forty inches.
At a recent meeting of af boricultur
ists in France, the question was de
bated whether spiders should be suf
fered to spin their webs on fruit walls.
The general opinion seemed to be that
the webs were more useful than objec

prevent the Incursions of earwigs and
similar insects, and also Interfere with
the operations of noxious flies whose
larvae ravage leaves and fruits.
A remarkable effect of the great hur
ricane of 18D8 in the West India Isl
ands was the complete disappearance
from the island of St. Vincent of a spe
cies of humming bird, which, previous
to the storm, had been one of the com
monest and tamest birds that inhabited
the island. Other species of humming
birds, of a larger size, survived the
teaipest, and are yet to be seen in St.
Vincent, but the little bronze-green
birds with erected crests, which for
merly attracted much admiration, are
all gone.
L. M. Loomis, the Californian ornith
ologist, who has been studying the
question of bird migration on the Pa
cific coast, concludes that those which
he has observed shape their course by
landmarks, and possess no mysterious
superhuman faculty for determining
direction, such as some persons have
imagined that birds are endowed with.
When a fog prevails the birds are be
wildered and lose their way. In brief,
Mr. Loomis thinks that bird migration
is a habit evolved by education and in
heritance, and owing its origin to the
failure of food in winter.
No one knows just what happens
when one drops a lump of salt or sugar
into a bowl of water. We may believe
with Prof. Ostwald and his followers,
that the molecules of sugar merely
glide everywhere between the mole
cules of water, without chemical ac
tion; or, on the other hand, dismissing
this mechanical explanation, we may
say with Mendeleef that the process of
solution is the most active of chemical
phenomena, involving that incessant in
terplay of atoms known as dissociation.
But these two explanations are mutu
ally exclusive, and no one can say posi
tively which one. If either one, Is right.

Some Cases in Which J t Is Sinjcnlarlj

A young man at the art school had
just finished painstakingly sharpening
three or four sticks of charcoal for one
of the girl students.
"Anything more I can do for you?"
he asked Iingeringly.
"No, I thank you; it was just splen
did of you to do this for me."
With a bow and a timid smile of
pleasure the young man moved away.
"Isn't he a real nice boy?" asked the
girl who had been favored of her friend
who sat at the next easel.
"Xo," was the uncompromising an
swer of the next girl, who was older
and possessed of more vigorous views.
"Why why "
"No; he's not a nice boy; he's a real
nice girl. He's the most negative speci
men of a young man I ever saw. Why,
if another fellow stepped purposely on
his toes he'd apologize for being In the
way."
"But he's gentle and of very sweet
disposition," argued the first girl.
"Granted, but he might be all that
and still be a little more of a man. Now,
what I like in the way of a man is one
who is noble, gentle, chivalrous and
generous, but with plenty of firmness,
and with strong, well-defined views on
every subject. A man should always
be at the positive pole; make him nega
tive and he isn't a man. Your real nice
boy is 'nice' because he's too meek to
be anything else. I've been watching
liiui for some time, and. do you know,
what I've had an aching desire to do?"
"No; what?"
"I long to go up behind him, hit him
a hard slap between the shoulders and
urge him to brace up. Of course, it
would be rude," finished the older girl
with a sigh.
"1 have a married friend who has a
boy of 10," resumed the older girl, after
a pause during which she Industriously
filled in several square inches with
light and shade. "Her boy was inclined
to belong to your 'real nice girl' sort of
being. Of course, it followed that oth
er youngsters 'picked upon' him a great
deal. His mother paid for a-course of
instruction in the manly art for him.
Then she old him that every time he
got into a fight she would give him a
quarter."
"Horrible!" shivered the other girl.
"That would make a regular bully of
him, I should think."
"It hasn't had that effect. He isn't of
the bullying kind. He's muscular now,
though his build Is so slight that one
would not suspect him of strength.
He's gaining in firmness and quickness
of decision, and his mother tells me
that her conscience doesn't trouble her
a bit. One of the greatest parental
crimes, she thinks, is to turn a girl-boy
out Into the world. He's only Imposed
upon now by boys who don't know him
and they never try It a second time.
I'm . in love with that mother, and her
son, whom I used to secretly detest,
now challenges my admiration."
"I I don't know," said the younger
girl dubiously. It is a doubtful matter,
to be sure. But there is no doubt that
most women like a man or a boy who
can fight on occasion. Boston Tran.

CRUEL RAILWAYS IN RUSSIA.
They Kill Ten Times More People than
'i hose of" Any Other Country.
It appears from railway statistics,
recently given to the public in Russia,
that the Russian railways kill ten
times more persons each year than do
those of any other country. By similar
statistics printed some years back the
United States led the other countries in
this respect, but since 1893 Russia has
had the bad pre-eminence of leading
the world as respects the numbers kill
ed yearly in proportion to the numbers
carried on its railways. Out of 500,000,
000 pasengers on the American rail
ways the fatalities are 6,800, including
employes; while out of 52,000,000 pas
sengers on the Russian railways the fa
talities are 0,107. Including the Siberian
railway Russia's mileage is about 25,
000 miles, while that of the United
States is about 180,000 miles.
The United States commercial agent
In Vladivostock reports to the State De
partment that experiments have been
made on the St. Petersburg and War
saw road with an Invention designed to
give warning and lessen the deadly
effects of railroad collisions. Two
wrecking railroads were provided; on
the first the sleepers were displaced, on
the second the rails were displaced. In
both cases the stoppage was immedi
ate by the aid of this device, without
outside help and without injury to the
moving trains. The essential feature
of the invention is an iron tube, of
usual construction, connected with the
general system of brakes and placed in
front of the wheels. At the least ir
regularity in the movement of the train
the tube, in consequence of certain cuts
made on it at intervals, breaks, and
thus produces the immediate stoppage
of the train, locomotive as well.

a prideful pleasure in pointing out the

He evidenced the proper appreciation,

be a beauty?"
"What building Is it?" he inquired.
"That," she said, with becoming
pride, "is the Gar building."
"The what?"
"Why, the Gar building, and it will

"What is it a hotel?"
"No-o-o, not a hotel; It's just a pri

about the mouth of the city cousin as

Indiana Care It the Name.
M. Perrault gives an ingenious ex
planation of the origin of the word
"Canada." Giovanni Gaboto, who is
also known as Cabot, landed In that
country in 1497, being the first Euro
pean to arrive there.
After him came some Spanish ves
sels, and in 1506 Denys, a Frenchman,
and Verrazzani, a Venetian, took pos
session of the country In the name of
France. At that time, says M. Per
rault, the French often heard the na
tives use the Spanish words "Aca
nada," which signify, "nothing here."
The natives had picked up these words
from the Spaniards who had searched
for gold and silver, and who, because
they had found nothing, had speedily
departed. The French came to the
conclusion that the words so often used
by the natives were the original name
of the country. Another explanation is
that Canada means a village or a town.

Phases of Hunger.
The kinds of hunger are described,
we are told, by Ors. Mathien and
Beau chant, and have been named
"painful hunger" and "agonizing
hunger." The need of taking fooc" zen
rally produces secretion of the gastrii
juice, and with some persons the ex
cess of acid in this fluid causes pain,
which may be allayed by taking an
alkali to neutralize it. The variety of
hunger referred to above as "agonizing
hunger" is characterized by painful
anxiety of mind. Those who suffer
from it fear that some terrible accident
is about to happen to them; they break
out into presperation, tremble, and
sometimes lose their reason. If food is
taken, all these symptoms disappear.
