Washington, D. C, as follows:
"I cannot too highly recommend
your preparation fur the relief of
catarrhal troubles in their various
forms. Some members of my own
family have used it with most grati
fying results. When other remedies
failed, Peruna proved most efficacious
and 1 cheerfully certify to its curative
excellence."
Mr. Fred L. Hebard, for nine years
a leading photographer of Kansas
City, Mo., located at the northeast
corner of 12th and Grand Aves ,
cheerfully gives the following testi
mony: "It is a proven fact that Pe
runa will cure catarrh and la grippe,
and as a tonic it has no equal. Drug
gists have tried to make me take
something else 'just as good,' but Pe
runa is good enough for me."

When Johnny Ilobhs left his home
up niLong the New Ilainpnlilre hills to
visit bin grandmother In Worcester,
Mass., he was cautioned by his mother
that h would find things In the city
Htrnngely different from those at home.
Johnny arrived In the early after
noon, mid long before tea time his
grandmother, who lived most simply,
told him to run out to the pantry and
get a bowl of milk which she had left
there "for a hungry boy."
A moment later she followed him,
and, to her amuzeinent, beheld her
grandson bravely ut work on a bowl
of soarmlnt tea which she had forgot
fully put In the plaee where she had
told him to find the milk.
"Why, child," she cried, seizing the
bowl from poor Johnuy, "don't you
know this Isn't milk?"
"I I knew It wasn't like Hlllbury
milk," stammered Johnny, with a final
gulp, "but I thought maybe It wus the
kind folks had In Worcester."

If you have a boy who bus begun
smoking too early and whom you wish
to cure of the habit, feed him popper
mints. Dr. O. Clayton Jones of Silver
ton, I'ngland, writing In the London
Lancet, is authority . for this simple
cure. Dr. Jones writes: "To break the
smoking habit In a youth there Is noth
ing better than peppermint drops. He
cannot smoke with a 'bullseye' In his
mouth, and evtii for some time after It
Is dissolved tobacco will not blend kind
ly with the taste that remains. Social
ly the cure may seem worse than the
disease, but from a medical point of
Tlew the sucking of peppermints Is far
less hurtful. A common 'bullseye' will
prevent smoking for nearly an hour,
so the amount of sweets used need not
be great."

THE REAL COWBOY.
ito I.ontfcr an Animated Battery,
hut u Ilroncbu Iluater Still.
It Is qulto true that tho cowboy of
to-day Is uot a collego man, nor ono
at all fumlllur with tho manners and
customs of polite society, says Out
West. Neither does ho go about his
daily task with u brace of six-shooters
slung nt his hips and u repeating rifle
held In the crook of his arm.
Uurbed wire fences, steam railroads,
Iiollce courts and ienltenthiries have
rendered such appurtenances superflu
ous. And immediately after pay day he
does not sweep down upon the nearest
town, shoot out the lights and take
part In a gun fight or two.
For the $.'50 or $40 a month which he
receives a strict attention to the duties
of bis Job Is expected, and In these days
of strenuous competition a Job is a pre
cious thing. The life of the modern
cowboy Is us full of hard and monoton
ous work as that of an eastern farm
hand, and there Is very little difference
In the intellectual and social standing
of the two.
Though thousands of cattle are graz
ed on the plains of the Southwest, very
few are shipped direct from the range
to the market. The places of Indlvlu
ual cattle kings have been taken by
great stock companies which own nil
merous tracts of range land In various
parts of the West.
A few years ago a dry season in
southern Arizona meant the death of
many cattle and very frequently the
financial ruin of their owners. The old
timers still tell stories of having walk
ed for incredible distances on the car
casses of dead steers.
Hut all that Is past they do things
differently now. Let a dry year come
uion the southwestern ranges and the
cattle are hustled on board a train and
transported to the cattle companies"
ranges in Colorado or Montana or Da
kota, where the season is good and the
feed abundant.
No long drives -of hundreds of miles
In search of new range as in the old
days. Simply a day or two of round
ing up, then a few hours' drive to the
ueurest shipping ioint on the railroad.
Then perhaps a day in town for the
cowboys and back agaiu to the home
ranch and the regular grind.
Though the. cowboy is uot a college
graduate he is by 110 means an igno
ramus. Usually he is American boru
and fairly well read, taking the same
active interest in current topics and
polities that other American citizens do.
As a general rule he has been raised
in the section in which be is employed
and is of youthful apiea ranee. He
differs very little from the average
American working youth, western dia
lect stories to the contrary notwithstanding.
In all cowboy bunkbouses there is h
pile of current magazines, the contents
of which are devoured with avidity.
And one is not Infrequently treated to
the amusing spectacle of u youthful
cowboy becoming so enamored of the
kind of punchers pictured in modern
Action that he purchases a pair of ut
terly useless six-shooters, commences
to walk with a swagger and to imitate
'he dialect of Hed Saunders.
But If marksmanship is no longer a
(jualiticatiou of the cowpuncher, horse
manship is. The modern cattleman is
as proud of his ability to ride anything
on four legs as was ever broncho buster
of bygone days, and this is the first fact
impressed upou a tenderfoot.

the hunting is nothing to what such a
homeward inarch may mean. I have
had my men shot down by hostile tribes
from ambush with poisoned arrows. I
have seen them die in agony from the
bites of noxious insects. I have been
attacked by bands of Dinkas, who knew
the value of ivory as well as I did and
who tried to help themselves to mine.

VENOM OF THE MOSQUITO.
Airency In Spr.-rfillntf Dlaeaao Wan
Discovered Many Vern Aa-o.
At the time of the discovery of the
mosquito's agency In breeding disease
It was not dreamed that far more than
the (,'erm of the truth had been reveal
ed many years before, says the New
York Sun. The truth was told in 18':
In the obscure columns of the Faceta
Office, published at the port of Camana,
Venezuela, and a little later In a brief
note or two that the discoverer wrote
to the Academy of Sciences In Paris.
It was buried in those mures and for
gotten, and has now been resurrected
hy the Havana Cronlca Medico and the
I'.ritlsh Medical Journal.
In May, l.S."3, Louis Daniel Beauper
thny, a native of Guadaloupe and
health officer at Camana, wrote to the
Jaceta Official that for fourteen years
he had made a microscopic study of the
blood and secretions In every type of
fever and had discovered that yellow
fever resulted from the stings of sev
eral species of mosquitoes. "The mos
quito plunges Its proboscis Into the skin
and Introduces a poison which has
properties akin to that of snake venom.
It softens the red blood corpuscles,
causes their rupture, and facilitates the
mixing of the coloring matter with the
serum."
Beauperthuy said a good word for
the much-maligned swamp, whose repu
tation as a breeder of malaria and oth
er fevers was widespread. "Marshes
do not communicate to the air any
thing more than humidity, and the
small amount of hydrogen they give
off does not cause In man the slight
est IndisK)sition in equatorial and in
tertropical regions renowned for their
unhealthfulness. Nor Is It the putres
cence of the water that makes it un
healthy, but the presence of mosqui
toes." In one of his short communications
to the Paris Academy of Sciences, dat
ed from Camana, June 18, 1S5G, he
wrote that as early as 1S3!J his inves
tigations in unhealthy locations In
South America had convinced him that
the so-called marsh fevers were due to
a vegeto-animal virus "inoculated luto
man by mosquitoes."
I!eauierthu.v's facts and deductions
were so remote from all the medical
teachings of the day that they were
doubtless laughed at and promptly for
gotten. Probably the priority of his
discovery will now be acknowledged,
but It might have been a profound
blessing to the world if scientific re
search bad been able in the middle of
the last century to proceed along the
lines suggested by Beauperthuy's an
nouncement.

Soapolds.
Do you wash? It Is a well-known
medical fact that scrubbing the face
and hands with chemical detergents is
absolutely ruinous to the delicate outer
fabric of the skin. You would not pour
a can of petrol on the side of an aero
plane to make it go, would you? Why
then, attempt to ojien the pores of the
cuticle and keep them working by the
external application of saponaceous
tablets and other inferior frauds of
the kind? Heware of these as you
would of a poison.
Water Is equally dangerous. Why is
It that you meet so many ioople ev
ery day in the street with gray smut
stained faces and toil-begrlmed bands?
Simply because they abrade aud de
stroy the elegant envelope with which
nature has provided their bodies, In
stead of treating it rationally from
within. The only way to be clean is
to swallow soapolds, with their wonder
ful internal operation on the fibers and
nerve tissues. However dusty or grit
ty you may be, one does of soapolds
will set you right. The ires will
spring oien and shod off the unnatural
accretion of foreign substances as a
snake sloughs its skin.
Think, too, of the time and money
you will save. No more tedious ablu
tions and ruinous water rates. You
can swallow your soapold as you walk
to the ofllee and be as bright as a new
pin.
Our final word Is If you have lieen
washing, stop It ; If you have not, don't
begin. Spare your ppirdormis. and
swallow soapokls. Try nature's wav

Fighting Ilefore Ladies."
The Hon. Thomas Sharkey, refereeing
a lightweight bout at the Englewood
carnival, rebuked a too energetic pugi
list "Kemember," he said, severely,
"you are lighting before ladies."
The refilling Influence of women uion
all conflicts, from polo to politics, is a
pleasant theory. A greater man than
Sharkey once disputed it. Telling how
the wife of an opponent had been ad
mitted to a famous ring side, be said :
"Kefinln' Influence of woman, huh! I'd
got him good an' licked when she sings
out 'tJIve it to him !' an' in less'n a min

gladiators, as they still do the bull

effect a saving of 25 jht cent. After
the ore Is concentrated it is passed
through a revolving cylinder and
brought Into contact with the deoxidiz

THE CUBE FOR
SCROFULA
Swollen glands about the neck, weak eyes, pale, waxy complexions,
running sores and ulcers, skin diseases, and general poor health, are the
usual ways in which Scrofula is manifested. The disease bein? deeply
intrenched in the blood often attacks the bones, resulting in White Swelling,
or hip disease, and the scrofulous and tubercular matter so thoroughly
destroys the healthful properties of the blood that Scrofula sometimes
terminates in consumption, an incurable disease. The entire circulation
being contaminated, the only way to cure the trouble is to thoroughly
purify the blood and restore the circulation to a strong, healthy state.
S. S. S. is the very best treatment for Scrofula; it renovates the entire
blood supply and drives out the scrofulous and tubercular deposits. S. S. S.
is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and it not only goes right down to the
very bottom of the trouble and removes the cause, but it supplies the weak,
diseased blood with the healthful properties it is in need of, and in this way
builds up weak, frail, scrofulous persons and makes them strong and healthy.
S. S. S. is a gentle, safe, vegetable preparation and is suited for persons of
any age. Book on the blood containing information about Scrofula and any
