CATARRH OF LUNGS. A Prominent Chicago Lady Cured by Pe-ru-na. Miss Maggie Welch, secretary of the Betsey Ross Educational and Benevo lent Society, writes from 328 Korth State street, Chicago, 111., the follow ing glowirg words concerning Peruna: "Last fall I caught the most severe cold I ever bad in my If ie. I coughed night and day, and my lungs and threat became ao sore that I was in Miss Maggie Welch. great distress. All cough remedies nauseateud me, and nothing afforded me relief until my doctor said, rather in a joke, 'I guess Peruna is the only medicine that will cure yno.' "I told him that I would certainly try it, and immediately sent for a bot tle. I found that relief came the first day, and as I kept taking it faithfully the cough gradually diminished, and the soreness left e. It i i fine." Maggie Welch. Address the Peruna Mediacine Co..

It is from these constant sufferers that the great army of rheumatic cripples is recruited. Their bodies are worn out by the incessant pains and the joints become so stinened and bant that they are at last compelled to give up or hobble about on crutches. Nobody ever outlived Rheumatism; the disease never loosens its grip or leaves of its own accord, but must be driven out by intelligent and persist ent treatment through the blood, for Rheumatism of every variety and form is caused by an over acid condition of the blood, and the deposit in muscles, joints and nerves ol corrosive poisons and gritty particles, and it is these irritating substances that produce the inflammation, swelling and pains, which last as long as the blood remains in this sour and acid state. To cure Rheumatism permanently the blood must be purified and invig orated, and no other remedy does this so well or so promptly as S. S. S. It refreshes and restores to the thin acid blood its nourishing and health-sustaining properties. And when strong, rich blood is again circulating through the body the acid poisons and irritating matter are washed out of the muscles and joints, and the pains at once cease .ssssaw sfssstw sW the pain-racked, despondent Rheumatic sufferer will receive helpful advice from Physicians of experience and skill without charge.

In 178T a goldsmith of the name of Brasher coined a sixteen-dollar gold, piece, which is now one of the rarest of coins, there being but four epecimens of it known, all of which are held at $30,00 each. This rare piece has the well known motto stamped upon it in this mixed-up form: "Uniam E Pluribus."

"Sufficient?" repeats the doctor. "Why, my dear sir, yon have enough money to pay physicians' fees for the rest of your life" Bananas English Style. . At English tables spoons are served with bananas. If the bananas are served as a single fruit course, however, sherry is usually sent aronnd with it. A few drops are poured upon the plate, and the banana, stripped little bv little of its skin, is dipped into this and thus eaten. To Get Out of It Cheap. Mrs. Newcomb (on being asked to contribute a dollar to help make np the deficit in the minister's salary) Real ly, I can't afford to give so much money; but I'll buy two chickens, a pound of coffee, a can of condensed milk, a bottle of olives, some cottage cheese, a sparerib and some cut flowers for the church supper, the proceeds of which are to be turned in. Judge. In cases where bronchitis has become chronic from want of proper treatment in the earlier stages, there is nothing so good as Dr. August Keonig's Ham burg Breast Tea, in conjnnction with which is Btrongly advised the use of St. Jacobs Oil as an outward applica tion along the front of the throat, from close up under the chin to well down to the top of the chest ; the one remedy assists tbe other, and as intended, they work in complete unison. The wonder ful penetrating power of St. Jacobs Oil enables it to reach the adhesion of for eign matter which lines the bronchial tubes and which-makes breathing more and more difficult. As these adhesions become inflamed and enlarged, St. Jacobs Oil causes euch adhesions to break away, making expectoration easi er and more free. Dr. August Koenig's Hamburg Breast Tea, drank slowly and very hot, sooths and heals the parts, is comforting and quieting, stops . the cough and relieves tbe breathing. This manner of treatment (and there is no other two remedies that will work to gether so successfully) reaches the diffi culty from the outside and the inside at tne same time. St. Jacobs Oil reaches the roots of the adhesion, and assists Dr. August Koenig's Hamburg Breast Tea in clearing them ; the both remedies act in unieion in healing and curing. The above remarks apply with equal force in cases of asthma, crenp, whooping cough, enlarged tonsils and all bronchial affections. Every family should have St. Jacobs Oil and Dr. Aug ust Koenig's Hamburg Breast Tea al ways in the house in order that they may be promptly used in the first stages. Often the maladies develop with won derful rapidity, and complications take place with equal suddenness. Cremation. Noi until 1884 was the first body cremated in England.

Throueh our Medical Department DON'T GET HARRIED, "Never get married-" . Such is the advice given to young people by Mrs. Reuben Nagle, a farmer, of St. Law rence, Pa., a sad-faced women of sev enty years. Her husband Is about the same age, and for half a century they lived together as man and wife. Only the other day they agreed to live apart, and they went about making the ar rangements apparently without a pang of regret. First, they went to an at torney's office and he drew up the papers. Next they had deeds prepared making an equal division of their prop erty. They started out In life with little, and wound np half a century of matrimony with about $40,000 invested In real estate and securities. This was amicably divided without the shadow of a difference. The lawyer having prepared the papers handed them to the couple and the husband paid his fee. Then they walked to the conrt house together, filed the papers In the Recorder's office, and In the corridor of the building separated without a display of any emotion whatever. "Well, good-by." he said, and she re plied "Good-by." They did not even shake hands, only the slightest nod as each went his or her own way. Their neighbors declare that they never knew them to quarrel, though they often had strong differences of opinion. "In fact," said Mr. Nagle, "we drifted as naturally Into the Idea of separating as we did Into matri mony. We simply decided to live apart because we weren't happy, and that's all there Is about it." Mrs. Nagle has resumed her resi dence In the old homestead, which she entered as a bride and has occupied ever since. It was there that she was found and questioned as to her views on marriage, when she declared: 'Nev er get married. That's my advice. I've GREAT RAILWAY PROJECT. Proposed Line Will Open Up a Tast and Rich Country. With the building of the Denver, Northwestern and Pacific Railway a new transcontinental railroad system will enter Into competition with exist ing transcontinental lines. The new railroad will run west and northwest from Denver to Salt Lake City and will reduce the time by rail between those two points ten hours. David H. MOffat, president of the First National Bank of Denver, will build the new road. He has entered into fin agreement with Senator W. A. Clark, owner of the San Pe3ro, Los An geles and Salt Lake road, by which the two roads will connect at Salt Lake City, thus establishing a through con nection between Denver and the Pa cific coast. When it is borne in mind that Mr. - BEKATOB CLARK. Moffat's new- road will connect at Denver with the Rock Island and tbe Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy, the importance of this new connection be comes apparent. The Denver, Northwestern and Pa cific railway will traverse a virgin ter ritory, from Denver to Salt Lake City, a distance of approximately 500 miles, being 235 miles less than by the Den ver and Rio Grande Railway between Denver and Salt Lake City. The section through which the road will go is as large as the State of Pennsylvania and is rich In minerals, anthracite coal and splendid agricul tural possibilities, and yet It Is not traversed by a single road. The great territory northwest of Denver, as yet undeveloped, is greater in area than the combined areas of Ver mont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware and New Jersey, which have a combin ed population of about 6,000,000. And this territory to-day, which, is capable of supporting in luxury the miner and the farmer, the agriculturist and the beef raiser, has a population of only 10,000. It is claimed by the projector of the road that there Is not a similar rich territory of equal area In the whole United States without a rail road. It has been said that a straight line can be drawn from Cheyenne, Wyo., to Park City, Utah, east of Salt Lake City, for 350 miles without touching a railroad track. From Silver Plume, fifty-four miles west of Denver, to Provo, Utah, a similar straight line of 300 miles can be drawn without touch ing a railroad track. It Is 223 miles from Grand Junction, Colo., on the Denver and Rio Grande Railway, due north to the Union Pacific in southern Wyoming. The Union Pacific at Its nearest point is 106 miles to the north, and the Denver and Rio Grande Is 12S miles on the south. The route of the new railway is midway between these points. This territory, without a single rail road, doing its business by stage, wag on or on foot, now contains several thousand persons who are engaged in raising sheep and cattle and in mining In a small way and doing the best they can against all the obstacles arising from a lack. of transportation. How greatly will a railroad, affording ade quate transportation to. persons engag THEY SAY....

AMERICA'S BIQ LANDHOLDER. John S. Bilby of Missouri Sal 1 to Sur pass All Others, John S. Bilby, of Quitman, Is a man whose name doesn't often appear in the newspapers, but If any newspaper man was shrewd enough to get him to talk he could write an interesting story about the old man. There Is hardly a doubt that he owns and controls more soil than, any other Individual in Amer ica. He owns at least 35,000 acres of highly Valuable land in Nodaway and Atchison counties, Missouri. He has 10,000 or 15,000 acres in Nebraska. He has a big tract, embracing 35,000 or 40,000 acres, in Arkansas. He owns land In five other states. Still he is not satisfied. Recently he has been getting control of some immense tracts In the Indian Territory. The Fairfax Forum says he has leased 95,000 acres there already, and that he is deter mined to add 30,000 more to the sum. On a conservative estimate, he already owns or has leased 180,000 acres, and he expects to have more than 200,000 acres before he closes pending deals. There are, of course, ranch companies and syndicates which can make a big ger showing than this, but probably no one person. Mr. Bilby has lived in Nodaway County many years. He came from New Jersey, bringing with him an ap parently insatiable appetite for land. He Is rough in speech, dress and man ner, but no man of penetration can look into his face without perceiving that he has great shrewdness. Al though now far along toward 70 years old, he spends most of his time on horseback riding over his lands. His northwest Missouri holdings are all rented "on shares." It has been suggested to Mr. Bilby that leasing Indian lands may involve him In legal difficulties, but this only makes him laugh. He Is of an exceed ingly litigious disposition, and it is doubtful if there has been a time In forty years when lie has not been in volved In from one to a dozen law suits. So keen a business man is he that he seldom loses a suit, and he seems to get as much satisfaction from winning a case as from driving a sharp bargain. Kansas City Journal. Journal or tbe Beggars. Innovations in journalism are not generally looked for in Europe, but Paris of late has been doing a few things In that line which have been distinctly new. The latest Is a jour nal for beggars, which has been start, ed for the purpose of disseminating useful Information among the mendi cant fraternity, and tbe price of which is 5 cents a copy. At a glance It would seem as if this charge was rather high, considering the supposed straitened means of Its readers, but presumably the editors know what they are about. The advertisements furnish Interest ing reading for beggars temporarily out of a job, though it is difficult to understand how the advertiser could expect to receive an answer to the fol lowing: "Wanted a blind man who can play the flute a little." Probably some unfortunate dumb man will tell his blind confrere of the va cancy. Here Is another sample of an ad vertised vacancy which requires awk ward qualifications: - "Wanted a lame man for the sea side; one without a right arm pre ferred." In addition to "ads" of this kind no tices of forthcoming christenings, bur ials and birthdays of rich people are printed, so that the beggar may know where to go to prosecute his vocation with success.
