Nana, and the present Geronimo, the three chiefs of the Arizona Apaches, with 100 of their I best bucks, came through to Green River. Wyoming. They had heard of the "heap wagon and no hoss" and had come to stop the train. They made a lasso of rawhide, and fifty men on each side held on to the rope as the freight came down the Wasatch divide. The engineer saw | when several miles away what the Indians were up to, so lie whistled "off brakes.” and. opening his throttle, let her loose. The cowcatcher struck the rope and hurled the Indians In all di rections. literally tearing them to pieces, headless, armless, and legless. Three chiefs went south to their cactus plains, very crestfallen. Before the selected these men the old Chief Victoria had them all eat a piece of rock salt about as big as a pecan, run swiftly about 1110 yards, sit down on a log or rock, and cross their legs. Then he watched tlu> vibration of the feet which were crossed. The feet which vibrated the longest or had the longest strokes lie declined to accept | for a severe duty or a dangerous trip, I or for one that was at all hazardous. | But be accepted the feet which vib , rated short, distinct and regular strokes. Now. what did that old chief know about pulsation of the arterial system or of heart action, and. Indeed, about salt In the system? I have lived near to Indian reservations and have had occasion often to survey over their lands for railraods and other objects, and since this salt controversy I have wondered where old Victoria got bls Ideas.

When the curtain went down at the j Close of the first act he turned In hie seat and said with a smile to the young woman directly behind him: “I beg your pardon, miss, but may 1 ask a slight favor of you?" “What Is It?* she said. “Please use this stick of gum In place of the kind you are chewing The odor of wintergreen is very offensive to me.” After that he was not diaturlied.

One short month has brought forth a vast change and I now consider myself a vv ell-man after months of suffering. Fellow suf ferers, Peruna xx ill cure you.” Catarrh is a systemic disease curable only by systemic treatment. A reme dy that cures catarrh must aim direct ly at the depressed nerve centers.

Peruna cures catatrh wherever lo cated. Peruna ts not a guess nor an experiment—it is an absolute scientific certainty. Peruna has no substitutes —no rivals. Insist upon having Pe runa.
