CATARRH OF LUNGS. THE LA N D OF POPPIE8. A Prominent Chicago Lady Cured by Pe-ru-na. Where, blue end silver in the eiin, The broad Pacific swells, Ard, king among the forest trees, The giant redwood dwells; And frosty winter never smites The smiling earth with gloom. In all their gay and glowing pride The languid poppies bloom. Miss Maggie Welch, secretary ol the Betsey Hoss Educational and Benevo lent Society, writes from 328 North State street, Chicago, III., the follow i n g glowing words concerning Peruna: “ louit fall I caught the most severe cold I ever had in my Hie. 1 coughed night and day, and my lungs and throat became bo sore that 1 was in The hills are rich with yellow ore, And in the vales below The luscious fruits and fragrant flowers O f every climate grow; And by the ruined mission’s wall! And from the wayside sod And all along the garden walks The drowsy poppies nod. Bright, crumpled blossom, silken pink, Pure white and crimson deep, And vivid scarlet, everywhere They tell a tale of sleep. When purple shadows long and cool Among the vineyards lie. And apples ripen into gold Beneath a turquoise aky. While Louisiana on her shield The sweet magnolia shows, And Maine displays the brown pine cone. New York the queenly rose. And Delaware prefers the peach Te garland her renown. The Golden State elects to wear A regal poppy crown. — Lealiefc Weekly. ♦ A D a u g h te r ’ s G ift « o OB know, pa wouldn’t consent y / to Del’s marriage with Jim, *•* wouldn't allow the wedding at the house or allow-either Del or Jim to come here afterward. This was be cause Jim had been wild and hadn't settled down. It was hard on us all, for Del was my only child; she had always been her father’s pet, and his treatment almost broke her heart. The years went by, and pa, instead o f softening, appeared to harden, though Jim rnude Del a splendid hus band and grew rich. ( They had one child, a boy, the prettiest little chap yon ever saw. One day an artist saw him in hts bath and was so struck with his slender little form that he asked leave to copy him into a picture he wus pulnting. The picture was a success and brought the artist a line reputation, all on account, everybody said, ot the little figure in the corner. One day Del said to me: “ Ma, I ’m going to send pa a present.” “ I ’m afraid, my dear, he'll send It right back to you.” "Maybe he will, and maybe he* won’t Anyway, I'm going to try It. I ’m going to put It In the little dining room so that he'll see It when he comes down the first thing In the morning. lie 's always in a better hu mor then than at any other time of day. Don't you remember how he used to toss me in the air every morn ing before breakfast?” "H ow are you going to send It?” "Jim and I are going to get up early and take It round. You are to let us In. W e'll place It right where pa will see It the first thing when he comes Into the breakfast room.” I didn't believe It would do any good, but I told Del I would help her In any way I could, so it was all ar ranged that they should bring their g ift the next Sunday morning. On that day we breakfast ot 9 o'clock and pa does not have to go downtown to busi ness. When Sunday came, the sun was shining bright and beautiful, the birds were singing In the yard, and there was a delicious freshness in the air. I was thankful, thinking that if anything cottld put pa In a good humor It would be this beautiful morning. A little before 9 Jim and Del drove up to the side gate, which was hidden from the house by trees, though that wasn't necessary, for pa was shut up In his shaving room, where he couldn't see anything, and Jim carried an ob long box about three feet In length up to the side entrance. I let them In, and they went to the dining room, while 1 went upstairs to keep an eye on pa. He lind finished shaving and was sitting by the front window, look ing out, but Instead of being bappy, the bright morning seemed to make him all the more melancholy. “ What a pleasant day,” 1 said, "fo r a family lairty to go for a drive In the country!” "There's no family party except you and me,” he said. I knew that he was pining for Del, but I didn't say anything more for fear of making him ugly. I saw by the clock that It was five minutes to it, and I went to the banister and coughed to give Jim and Del warning, then told pa that breakfast was ready. He got up with a sigh, and we went downstairs together. We ls>th stood mute, looking at what we saw in the bay window at the end of the dining room. The marble bust that always stood on the pedes tal had been removed, and in Its stead was the statue of n little boy about f> years old. It was of white marble— that Is. so far as we could Judge—and held out a pair of little arms to us. “ Great guns!” pa exclaimed. “ I.lttle darling!” said I. “ What a pity It Isn't silver’ "H o w do, grandpa T" cried the Do not print In strong sunlight ex cept when using very dense negatives.
