A., writes: "I have been tronbled with catarrh for nearly twenty-five year?, and have ' tralia tried many cures for it, but obtained very little help. "Then my brother advised me to try Peruna, and I did. "My health mas very poor at the time I began taking Peruna. My throat was very nor and I had a bad oouah. "Peruna has cured me. The chronic catarrh Is tone and my health is very much improved. "I recommend Prruna to all my friends who are troubled as I was."

"The most annoying tiling in navy life for n recruit is the uhsence of : Bide pockets in the uniform trousers," i J. It. Hose, a yeoman at the navy re- ' fruiting station, said this morning. "The average man doesn't realize how strong Is the custom of thrusting his hands in his trousers pockets until he . dons a pair without pockets. I've worn the navy uniform four years now, and I frequently find myself trying to put Iny hands in iny pockets." Kansas City Times. Gas poisoning from gas endues has become bo common that Genniui au thorities urge that cylinders of oxygon be kept near, and tliat engineers he taught to apply Inhalations to lesuacl t.ite victims.

It has' been suggest ed that with proper apparatus t'u eloc rrlc arc could be employed by divers for quickly cutting through larae chain cables or Iron plates under water. The "axle-light" system Is In use on the trains of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad on an extensive aoale. Bach car has Its own storngo batteries supplied with electricity gen erated by the axles of the wheels, and the locomotive headlights derive their Illumination from the same source. It Is estimated that each full train, ex clusive of tho locomotive, develops uear ly 500 candle-power light. Within the past few years the euca lyptus has been Introduced In Florida, and Its kindly growth there Is believed to indicate that It might be extensively cultivated In the southern parts of that State. The eucalyptus Is of very rnpid growth, but It cannot withstand frosts. It was planted In California from Aua- many years ago, and now flour ishes so abundantly on the Pacific coast that Its wood Is extensively em ployed for fuel, posts and lumber. The production of oxygen and hydro gen on an Industrial scale by the. de composition of water with electrolytic apparatus In Germany has led to the suggestion that hydrogen thus produc ed may And a wide field of employment as a lighting agent.

With a proper burner it is said to be a cheaper illumlnant than acetylene, the relative cost for equal Illuminating power being 25 for hydro gen to 50 for acetylene. Everybody who has used a micro scope has no doubt regretted the diffi culty of seeing small Insects, and other living objects not of mere microscopic dimensions, magnified while alive and moving freely In the field of view. A recently Invented English Instrument called the vltascope, Is said to supply a desideratum In this respect. It Is shaped like a telescope, a foot Ion; when closed, and an inch and a Half In diameter. The lenses are so com bined that an object 20 Inches away mav be macmifled 12 diameters. At a distance of 5 Inches the magnification Is 00 diameters. the river has more than sixteen horn power and few of them have over ten. Many of the engines used In the river craft are of light design, and while, the horse power Is small they attain a speed of from 800 to 1,000 rev olutions jer minute. Motor boating on the Mississippi has taken a remarkable advance In popularity In the last season. Motor boat clubs have been organized at all of the smaller towns along the river, as well as at the cities, and there Is now a movement on between the clubs jooklng toward the organization of a Mississippi River motor-boat associa tion, to Include all of the smaller or ganizations. Where a couple of years ago there were a dozen launches in LaCrosse waters there are now more than 150, ranging from the sixteen-foot hunting scowo the magnificent fifty-foot cruis ers of the more wealthy boatmen.

A era ft with the speed of an express train has long been the dream of sev eral motor-boat enthusiasts along the upper Mississippi River and several de signers have been working- together with the result that they have produced n boat with which they expect to shat ter all the present records, says the New York World. Frank Titus of Fountain City, Wis., formerly owned the fustest boat on the river in the famous I!ut, the Bmall craft which attained a speed of nearly twenty miles an hour with a nine-horse power engine and for three seasons held the speed record on the upper river. The Hat has been sold to a physician at Cnssvllle, Wis., and her engines will be used In another craft. Until the advent of the Chief of Rec ord, formerly owned by A. Gardner ol Winona, the Hat outclassed all boats on tho river, large and small, and could lenvo the fastest steamboats In the stern waves. Gardner's boat, 25 feet long, with a nlne-horse-power engine and 4-foot beam, was, until the middle of ,the season, the fastest boat In that terri tory. At Wabasha on July 4, In the I motor-boat races, the Chief of Record 'outran the Bat and other boats en tered and finished nearly a half-mile In the lead In a six-mile course. The Chief of Record attained a speed of twenty miles an hour and for the ! horse-power Installed was considered j the fastest boat between St. Louis and . St. Paul. Late In July the Skip, owned by Eugene P. Gleason, of LaCrosse, was launched at Red Wlnf and clearly out classed other water racers. The Skip Is 32 feet long, with a 4-foot beam and Is equipped with a twelve-horse-power motor In three cylinders. The Skip has attained as high as twenty-two 1 and a half miles an hour, but through failure to provide a sufficient cooling apparatus for the engine is unable to maintain this pace Indefinitely. 1 The Skip now holds the sieed rec ord on that part of the river with the 1 exception of a boat of the same de , sign, which Is 85 feet long and Is ! equipped with a slxteeh-horse-power j three cylinder motor. The new boat, , however, has not entered Into compe ' tltlon with the speed records, although 'she is said to run nearly a mile an hour faster than the Skip. I A remarkable feature of motor boat ing on the Mississippi la the speed at tained by boats with little horse pow er. While tho crafts on the Atlantic coast and the lakes require from fifty to seventy-flve horse power before a speed of twenty miles an hour can be attained, none of the fastest boats on New Industry Developed by tbe De mand for tbe "Hot Thing;." "Do you know," said the tamale fiend to a Kansas City Times man, "that a good part of the profit In the tamale trade goes to the farmers of Johnson County, Kansas?" "Oh,, shucks I" returned the other. . "Yes, that's just It The farmers out there supply the Kansas City market with the corn husks the tamales are wrapped In, and it would surprise you to learn the extent of tbe business. Any old corn husk won't do for the business, either. If you'll look at these you'll see the texture Is very close, the sur face smooth and that the lengths are uniform. Only the inner husk Is used, the flue white covering that grows next to the ear. The proper length is about nine Inches, to allow for the ends be ing folded over the tamale when it is steamed, as you see them now." "Why, who'd go to all that bother for a dinky little business like this?" asked the listener Incredulously. "Bother? Dinky? Say, do you know these corn husks are shipped In here in 500-pound bales? That's quite a re spectable sized industry, I take it At any rate, the Kansas farmers have found It profitable enough to go to the expense of buying presses to bale the product and a large agricultural supply house in Kansas City finds It worth while to carry It In stock and cater to the trade of the tamale men." "What Is the particular advantage of using corn husks for this purpose?" asked the listener. "Isn't there any thing else that Would do?" "Nothing that would answer as many purposes. The corn husk holds the tamale while It, is cooked and at the same time Imparts a flavor to it' It also holds the heat as nothing else would." "Well, It beats me!" said the other man, as they went on. "I never gave It much thought, but always supposed the tamale men bought up all the old mattresses to get their corn husks." ANSWERS TO INQUIRIES. Washington Farmers Ask Information on Various Subjects. From the Washington State College, Pullman. The experiment station has received a letter from J. A. B., of Everett, ask ing how to exterminate the Canadian thistle. Professor W. S. Thornber, horticulturist, replied as follows : "The Canadian thistle Is a hard plant to fight, but by Judicious cut ting and cultivation you can eradi cate It. The plant must be kept from forming a growth above the surface of the ground for at least one year In order that your efforts for its ex termination may be successful. The plant spreads by underground stems, or roots, which are thrown up at dis tances of from three to six feet from the parent plant, so merely destroy in? the mother plant will not kill the weed. A good cutting during the month of June, followed by other cuttings in the latter part of July and on through August will check the thistle materially, and may de stroy it entirely. It is generally quite difficult to eradicate the plant In pastures and fence corners, since a small residue will be left unde stroyed, which will grow durng the following year. There is no spray that will kill it. Sometimes it is helpful to cut the thistle off about three inches below the surface of the ground, which causes the root to rot by drying out. In cultivated fields it is advisable to rake out the underground stems, and allow them to dry thoroughly before plowing again.

Bears the Signature of 7 Another inquiry from Seattle re lates to the culture of chestnuts. The correspondent was advised as fol lows: "The American chestnut (the reg ular, tall-growing variety) should be pruned the same as any other shade tree, leaving, however, a permanent, or constant leader, through the cen ter of the tree. This is the practice of the Experiment Station, and one that is used upon all forms of the tall, or upright, growing trees. It is also used upon the sweet cherries, but not upon the sour ones. "The tendency of this chestnut is to produce a thin, open top, and it is advisable to cut back the outer limbs, and occasionally the leader, to thick en the foliage. The Dwarf, or Jap anese, chestnuts should be pruned to small, compact trees, branching them from a foot to three feet from the ground. They will practically take care of themselves after the first year or two of pruning. This pruning may be done at any time while the tree Is dormant, or after the sap has ceased to flow, which Relieving the Slonotony.

A farmer residing near Center ville, desires to know the best meth od of raising peas, and the most de sirable variety; also, with regard to combining peas with oats. The Sta tion supplied him with the follow ing information: "The experience of the Experi ment Station staff, leads us to be lieve that almost any of the com mon field variety of peas will grow w?ll in your region. We advise the Black-Eyed Marrow Fat as the best general variety. Ordinarily we sow the peas at the rate of one to one and one-half bushels per acre, disk ins or drilling them at least four inches deep. Sow the oats about a week after the peas are sown, as the latter grow so much stronger and consequently, the oats will be smothered out unless they are given the advantage. We do not consider that oats and peas are as good for horses as for cows. The mixture makes very rich, nutritious hay." Didn't Need Then.

Instead of being1 rich, strong and healthy, the circulation has become infected with germs of disease which destroy the rich, red corpuscles that furnish nourishment and strength to the body, and reduced this vital fluid to such a weak, watery condition that it is no longer able to keep the svstem in health, or ward off the countless diseases and disorders that assail it. The loss of these red corpuscles takes the color and glow of health from the cheek, and we see pale, sallow faces and washed out. chalky complexions among the first 3 mptoms of Malaria. But Malaria is a general svstemic disease, and as the blood becomes more heavily loaded with its germs we have moreseriou3 uid complicated symptoms ; the impure blood having its effect on all parts cf the body. The appetite fails, digestion is weakened, chills and slight lever are frequent, and the sufferer loses energy and ambition because of a constant tired-out and "no account " feeling. The lack of necessary nour ishment and healthful qualities in the blood causes boils and abscesses, skin affections, and in some cases sores and ulcers to break out, and sometimes the patient is prostrated with a spell of malarial fever which may leave his heajth permanently impaired. To cure Malaria both a blood purifier and tonic are necessary. in order to remove the cause and at the same time build up the system from its weakened and run-down condition. S. S. S. is the medicine best fitted for this work. It is the most perfect of all blood purifiers, and the purely vegetable ingredients of which it is composed make it the During 1900 I was running a farm on the Mississippi river and became so impreg nated with Malaria that for a ;ar I was almost a physical wreck. I tried a number of medicines recommended as blood purifi ers, chill cures, and Malaria eradicators, but nothing did me any good until I began to use S. S. S. The result was that after taking it for awhile I was as well and strong as I ever was. I have never had a chill tinea nor the slightest symptom of Malaria. I hope others will be benefited iy my experience, and with that end in view I give this testimonial, knowing that S. S. S. is the best remedy for Ma'.aria. Amory, Miss. S. R. COWLEY. greatest and salest of all tonics. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation and removes every trace of impurity ?T. IJison am at same time gives to the blood the health-sustaining qual ities it needs. It cures Malaria thoroughly and permanently because it removes the germs and poisons which produce the disease, and while doing this tones up and strengthens every part of the system. When S. S. S. has cleansed the blood the symptoms pass away, the healthy color returns to the complexion, the old tired, depressed feeling is gone, and the entire health is renewed.
