Not many people have ever had the
chance io eat an ear of roasted corn on
the cob in the middle of winter. How­
ever, Wadhame & Kerr Bros., wholesale
grocers of Portland, had a small quan­
tity put up under their Monopole brand
and bad it shipped to tnem trom the
state of Maine. The corn is put up six
or seven ears in a gallon can and while
it is much higher in price than their
regular Monopole canned corn, there
are many who are willing to pay extra

One of the curiosities «f the sky­
scraper is the fact that th law which
requires fire escapes on i flve-story
building dispenses with than on a tlf-
teeu-story building. Perhay It realizes
that in case of tire no out would ever
be able to climb down twe-.ty or twen­
ty-live flights o f giddy lit|c iron lad­
ders without losing his insd. At any
rate, It depends eutirely fr safety In
the sky-scraper on flreprox construc­
tion. There must be not bag about it
that can burn. And there i not. Stair­
ways are of marble and Am. There
is little, a very little wood ’Tim” about
the offices, but even if it ¿aught tire
it would not feed the tiaiiys for long
aud would leave the buihliig practical­
ly uninjured.

Of course, wood does go Mto the con­
struction o f the building, ¿it all such
wood must, in buildings ¿per twelve
stories high, according to aw, be tire-
proofed, chemically treatel so that It
will not burn. The sky-Kiraper says
to its tenants: "There isu’ going to be
a tire and, if there Is, you can get out
by the elevators.” Elevitor shafts
are constructed absolutely unburuable,
with not a thing about tern to feed
the flames. The lesson if the New
York Life Building a fev years ago
was thoroughly learned aid to-day the

no chance o f a return to first princi­
ples. Such buildings as the Herald j

themselves. But, unfortunately, they

as a single eartmnn can push a heavy
box over the rollers with ease, and the
new device makes the operation prac­
tically noiseless. There is no elianee of
the box sliding down the incline, as the
rollers have automatic locks which pre­
vent them from revolving backward.
The skid can be reversed for unload­
ing goods from the wagon, or may be
used as a truck for moving burdens on
level ground by using it with the roll­
ers face down. With the time saved in
both loading and unloading, the neces­
sity for fewer men and the great de­
crease of danger to both the truckman
and the goods, it would seem that this
new’ skid has much to recommend its
use by express companies, glass, porce­
lain and piano factories and all con­
cerns shipping heavy freight.

SAVED BY PE-RU-NA
Rev. II. Stubenvoll, of Elkhorn, W is.,is pa-tor of the Evangelical Lutheran
St. John’ s church of that place. Rev. Stubenvoll ia the possessor of two bibles
presented to him by Emperor William of Germany. Upon the fly leaf of one of
the bibles the emperor has written in his own handwriting a text.
This honored pastor, in a recent letter to the Peruna Medicine Co., of
Colubmus, Ohio, says concerning their famous catarrh remedy, Peruna:
The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
Gentlemen: “ I had hemorrhages of the lungs for a long time, and all de­
spaired of me. I took Peruna and was cured. It gave me strength and cour­
age, and made healthy, pure blood.
It increased my weight, gave me s
healthy color, and I feel well. It is the best medicine in the world. If e v e ry ­
one kept Peruna i i the house It would save many from death every y ea r.” —
