No Family Should Be Without It.
Perana ia a great family medicine.
Ibe women praise it as well as the
men ; it is just the thing for the many
little catarrhal ailments of childhood.
The following testimonials from
thankfnl men and women tell in direct,
sincere language what their success has
been in the use of Peruna in their
f&milies:
Louis J. f-cberrinEky, 103 Locust
street, Atlantic, Iowa, writes:
"I will tell yon briefly what Peruna
has done for me. I took a severe cold
which gave me a hard cough. All
"doctors' medicines failed to cure it. I
took one bottle of Perana and was well.
"Then my two children had bad
coughs accompanied by gagging. My
wife had stomach trouble for years.
She took Peruna and now she is well.
"I cannot express my thanks in
words, but I recommend your remedy
at every opportunity, for I can con
scientiously say that there is no medi
cine like Peruna. Nearly evervone in
this town knew about the sickness of
myself and family, and they have seen
with astonishment what
done for us. Many followed our ex
ample, and the result was health.
Thanking you heartily, I am." L. J.
Scherrinsky.
Mrs. Nannie Wallace,
president of the Western Baptist Mis'
sionary society, writes:
"I consider Peruna an indispensable
article in my medicine chest. It is
twenty medicines in one, and has so far
cured every sickness that has been in
my home for five years. I consider it
of special value to weakly women, as it
builds up the general health, drives
out disease and keeps you in the best
of health." Mrs. Nannie Wallace.
Peruna protects the fami y against
coughs, colds, catarrh, bronchitis, ca

Activity in Church Building. .-.
T la often asserted that the churches are losin? their hold
upon the people because the revelations of science, an 1n

nm nt fhe most remarkable phenomena of the times. . At
tention is called to it now by various news items - concerning
church buildings. Not long ago we had descriptions of the
great Roman Catholic Cathedral in London, a magnificent
snecimen of church architecture that might almost suggest a
rivalry with gome of the splendid medieval monuments to re

Roman Catholic Cathedral which belongs to the same epoch,
though it is soniewat older, is another very imposing and costly
structure. .
These are but a few instances out of many which indicate
the continuing power and purpose of the churches to erect
elaborate and imposing edifices. And the power U evidence
of vitality, for the contributions to these immense building
funds are more than ever voluntary. They can be explained
nnlv hv a larse measure of popular approval and by an in

loyalty.

The Habit of Worrying.
HERE was once a man who kept account of his worries
for a given length of time, and then reviewed the record
to see how these anxieties looked in the light of subse
quent developments. He said that out of all the worries
in which he had indulged himself during several years
only two had any substantial basis, and these were trivial. ;
The experiment might be a good one for some other folk to
try. There is no reason to suppose that worrying ever did a
single human being one bit of good, and it has done an im
amount of harm. In the first place, there is the time
. snent in this uncomfortable occupation which should have been
given to rest, recreation or actual worn, xueu mere is me
vitality lost by it, which is often more than would sufllee to
remove the cause of the worry, if properly applied. Third,
and not by any means least, there is the discomfort caused by
the recital of the anxious person's worries to other people.
Most of us have enough reason for Irritation in our own
affairs and in the real perplexities and griefs of our neighbors,
j without troubling our heads over something which would be
I uncomfortable if it were to happen, but which has not hap
: pened yet and may never come to pass.

oped, and almost as easily checked if taken in time. It is a

Use Care When Picking a Husband.
VERY mother having a daughter of marriageable or
approaching marriageable age meditates now and then
on the sort of man she would be willing to have her
daughter marry, and young men who call at the house
are instinctively classified as eligible or not eligible. -No
matter how firmly .mothers may deny this impeachment, it is
the truth. . .
It would be interesting, however, and, perhaps, astounding,
to know what sort of a man most mothers would pick out to be
their son-in-law. In this matter, strange to say, pride and vanity
sometimes play, a stronger part than love. Two things ought
to weigh most in making this choice; first, the character, and
second, the worldly prospects of the man. Unhappily many
mothers and many daughters, too allow a man's wealth and
social position to count for more than the man himself. Every
day one sees fine girls given to dissolute, worthless fellows who
happen to have inherited a fortune and a family name. A true
mother would rather see her child the wife of a decent boot
black than bound to a drunkard and a rake whatever his wealth
and lineage, for a girl mated to a man whom she does not love
will be unhappy, and what is the nse of glory and splendor
if one has not happiness?
The man who is most likely to be a good husband is a
cleanly, positive man of the girl's own class. He need not be
handsome or rich or too good. He ought to be human and to
have had some experience with the world, for that quality
makes a man liberal and charitable. It will be well jf he Is
thoughtful otf little things, for. the man wlio thinks of small
courtesies and kindnesses is unselfish. Let "him have enough
to support a home without pinching and let him have prospects
of improving his fortune. This is very important, for love and
poverty do not always get on well together. A girl is a fool o
sell herself for an establishment; bat she is no less m fool.to
give herself away for nothing. Men and women love better
on a full stomach and affection must be ardent indeed to make
no for a lean pantry and a cold stove. Girls should nse their
heads in the game of love. The marriage of reason, fortunately.
is not an institution in this country, but the marriage of unrea
son is only too common, as the divorce records prove.
The mother who encourages her daughter to seek a good
match instead of merely a good husband is unworthy of exer
cising the privileges of motherhood. San Francisco Bulletin.

Is Success a True Test?
NE of. the gravest problems confronting the religious
leaders of the twentieth century is the idolization of that !
1 1 tt A . J K..AAa u4 cnnl m 1 '
Ufe has become thoroughly permeated with the religion
of the man who succeeds in landing certain prises for
which he has striven with every ounce of energy and intelli
gence he possesses. In fact, the man who succeeds, as the
world calls it, does so nine times out of ten at the cost of many
sentiments that he should cherish.
It is the undoubted province of religion and of the sincere
believers in Christianity as it was founded by its Divine Leader
to attempt to make some headway against the gross material-.
ism that is sweeping over the breadth and length of the land. :
One of the most distressing signs of the times is the ever ready ;
and apparently final "dollar gauge" that modern society ap-j
pears to have adopted as its one criterion of a man and his
works. The query, Does it pay? is but too often the sole qnes-j
tion demanded when some proposal is made. The fellow query,
where it is an individual, follows patly, Does he make money 1
Any sensible being understands that these questions have
their legitimate and most important sphere, but - they ; have !
overrun these properly narrowed bounds and crept into the
very home and every social function of American society. A j
very slight study of the teachings of Christ will reveal clearly j
that such a condition is intrinsically opposed to . a favored ;
growth of true religion and forms the dominant obstacle to .
that religious revival so eagerly sought and so long delayed.

Good Roads.
OOD roads are among the evidences of high civilization
or national necessity or an advance in prosperity. They
are certainly a luxury. At a more primitive' period of
our own development, that told about the whole story of
their place in public estimation. If a city or smaller
community could afford them, well and good; their construc
tion was justifiable, like the erection of statues and fountains.
"If It could not, why, it didn't lose much. We were a rugged
; people and jounces and jolts were accepted as a part of our
' discipline. We didn't need the Foods for military . purposes,
as did the old Romans or as the Spaniards thought they did
fwhen they built the splendid highway from Ponce to San Juan
in the island of Porto Kico, and we never dreamed that good
roads were among the most powerful levers in industrial and
commercial development.
There has at last been an awakening to the value of smooth
and hard highways. A new conviction has dawned upon us.
We are still stretching ourselves and struggling with it, but it
has found lodgment and will in time work its way. Most of ns
are longing for the day when instead of enjoying a mile or two
of improved highway, which only emphasizes the discomfort
and wretchedness of the ten miles which we may strike later
on, we can start out on a half day's or a day's ride over coun
try roads that shall continue from start to finish as good as
any of the samples. Boston Transcript.
Hi
What Can We Afford ?
OW many times in the course of a year we use the little
sentence "I can't afford it," usually with a complaining
note in voice or mind as we realize the difference be
tween what we ca pay for and what we desire. Yet
'people usually, if not always, afford, what they want
most. Even a millionaire can't buy everything on earth; he has
to take his choice, like other men, but, like other men, he nan
ages to afford what he wants most.
By what we can or cannot afford we usually mean what the
utmost living we are able to make will or will not suffer us to
buy. But here is another way to calculate. "The cost of a
thing." said Thoreau, "is the amount of what I will call Ufe
which is required to be exchanged for it Immediately, or in the
long run." Stevenson says, "I have been accustomed to put
it .to myself, perhaps more clearly, that the price we. have to
pay for money is paid in liberty." Here is a new measure of
what we can afford not how many purchasable things we can
manage to barter our life and liberty for, but what amount of
life or liberty we can afford to exchange for any purchasable
commodity; in a word, what kind of a living we can afford to
earn. "Do you want a thousand-dollar income?" says Ste
venson, "or a five thousand, or ten thousand? And can. yon
afford the one you want?" What a revolution in the world of
economics and finance were every one honestly to ask and
answer himself that question! Harper's Weekly.

I bequeath to my children Scrofula with all its
attendant horrors, humiliation and suffering-. This is a
strange legacy to leave to posterity ; a heavy burden to
place upon the shoulders of the young.
This treacherous disease dwarfs the body and hinders
the growth and development of the faculties, and the
child born of blood poison, or scrofula-tainted parentage,
is poorly equipped for life's duties.
Scrofula is a disease -with numerous and varied
symptoms; enlarged glands or tumors about the neck
and armpits, catarrh of the head, weak eyes and dreadful
skin emotions upon different parts of the body show the
presence of tubercular or scrofulous matter in the blood. This dangerous
and stealthy disease entrenches itself securely in the system and attacks
the bones and tissues, destroys the red corpuscles of the blood, resulting in
white swelling, a pallid, waxy appearance of the skin, loss of strength and
a gradual wasting away of the body.
S. S. S. combines both purifying and tonic properties, and is guaran
teed entirely vegetable, making it the ideal remedy in
all scrofulous affections. It purifies the deteriorated
blood, makes it rich and strong and a complete and
permanent cure is soon effected. S. S. S. improves
the digestion and assimilation of food, restores the
lost properties to the blood and quickens the circulation, bringing a healthy
color to the skin and vigor to the weak and emaciated body.

Spent $7,000,000 in Searching for
Mother Lode at Cripple Creek.
Search for the world's greatest store
of gold was cut short by the death at
Colorado Springs of Wlnfield Scott
Stratton, Colorado's bonanza king. Up
to the time of his death Mr. Stratton
was spending $50,000 a month in sink
ing a shaft into the heart of Battle
Mountain, in order to lay bare the
mother lode of precious metal from
which all the fabulously rich veins of
Cripple Creek diverge. Had this work
been successfully ' consummated, the
son of a poverty-stricken boat-builder,
himself for many years a carpenter,
would have died unquestionably the
richest man In the world. It would
have been a fitting climax to a life that
reads like a boy's story book of adven
tures. Wlnfield Scott Stratton was born at
Jeffersonville, Ind., on July 22, 1S48, be
ing the only son of Myron Stratton, a
boat builder of that town. Hard work
at his father's craft occupied the boy's
early youth, but his own roving dispo
sition and the lurid tales of returning
49ers from California soon made him
leave his home and drift rapidly out
into the golden West, as thousands of
other young men were doing at that
time. Unlike most other young men,
however, Stratton let mines and mining
strictly alone until he had earned by-
steady application to his work at a car
penter's bench a small capital of $3,000.
The latter portion of this sum was
amassed at Colorado Springs, where in
1873 the young laboring man made his
first venture Into the mining world. He
put all of his little fortune Into the
Yretaba mine in the Cunningham
Gulch, and never received one cent of It
back again. The experience gave him
the mining fever, however, and a fierce
determination to get back from the
bowels of the earth the money that he
hud seen swallowed up there.
It was the turning point in Stratton's
career. He now felt an irresistible de
sire to prospect for gold. Carpentering
he pursued long enough each year to
secure money for an outfit, and the rest
of the time was spent in investigating
' every miniug settlement in Colorado.
For almost twenty years Winfield
Stratton sternly pursued this profitless
life of treasure-seeking, and at last he
. "struck it rich." The Fourth of July,
' 1S91, gave the tireless prospector bis re
. ward in the staking out of the famous
: Independence mine at Cripple Creek.
From this property Stratton has been
i drawing gold at the rate of $100,000 a
month ever since that time. Indeed,
for many years he gave strict orders
that his mine should not produce more
than this income, as he considered that
gold inside a granite mountain was in
a much safer plaee than any bank or
Rafety deposit vault could offer him. It
Is even recorded that he sternly repri
manded his entire mine crew because
during one month they inadvertently
sent out $80,000 too much.
The immense fortune gained from the
W. S. STRATTON.
Independence gave the former carpen
ter ample means to attempt the execu
tion of his life dream and to strike into
the heart of the mountain for the moth
er lode of the radiating gold veins of
Cripple Creek. It was his often de
clared intention never to stop work on
his shaft till he had reached his goaL
and he was absolutely convinced that
such a goal existed. "I have spent,"
said Mr. Stratton last year, "$7,000,000
on this plan already. I intend to go down
into the Interior of the earth till I find.
the limitless deposits of gold that I
know to be there or until human in
genuity and modern machinery fail me.
I set no other limits to my quest."
GREAT ALPINE TUNNEL.
Danorer Attending Construction of
Soadws; Thronh the Mountains.
In building a great Alpine tunnel.
one of the greatest dangers to the
workmen is the high temperature. The
Simplon tunnel is at a much lower alti
tude above sea level than any of the
others, and having so much mountain
on top, it is naturally very hot.
When the (Jot hard was built, no
fewer than GOO deaths occurred among
the workmen; this appalling mortality
being chiefly due to changes of tem
perature encountered by the men when
coming in and out of the tunnel. Both
the engineer and the contractor - lost
their lives. But in the Simplon, the
workmen's health Is carefully looked
to. They come out from their labors
in the tunnel Into a large, warm build
ing, where they change their mining
suits for ary clothes, and are pro
vided with hot or cold douche baths.
Excellent meals are given at a noml
nal cost, and medical attendance Is
gratis.
The problem of how a great Alpine
tunnel could be properly ventilated was
one that long baffled engineers. To
sink shafts through the mountains was
out of the question, but Sig. Saccardo,
a famous engineer of Bologna, has in
vented a system by which vast volumes
of fresh air can be blown into a tunnel
by ventilating fans placed near the
mouth.
This was first Introduced on the Prac-
chla tunnel beneath the Apennines, but
not until after a heavy train with two
engines, conveying one of the crowned
heads of Europe and his suite, rushed
out of the exit of the Pracchia tunnel
one day with its engineman and fire
man lying almost suffocated.
But the only satisfactory solution to
the ventilation question Is the adoption
of electric traction through tunnels of
great length. This system has worked
well at Baltimore, where an electric
locomotive is attached to the expresses
when approaching the long tunnel
which takes them through, steam en
gine and all, at from fifty to sixty miles
an hour. There is no stop at the end
of the tunnel, for the electrical locomo
tive runs ahead into a siding and leaves
the other engine.
Since October of last year the work
at the Italian end of the Simplon has
hn much delayed by the flooding of
the tunnel with large volumes of wa
ter from a source that remained long
undiscovered. The water burst in while
the tunnel was being bored through a
soft marble, and work could not be
continued until the engineers had di
verted the stream from which the
water came. Pearson's.
