WHAT IS PE-RU-MA? Is It a Catarrh Remedy, or a Tonic, or Is It Both? Some people call Peruna a great tonic. Others refer to Peruna as a great catarrh remedy. Which of these people are right? Is it more proper to call Peruna a catarrh remedy than to call it a tonic? Our reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can be no effectual catarrh remeuy that is not also a tonic. In order to thoroughly relieve any owe of catarrh, a remedy must -not only have a specific action on the mucous membranes affected by the catarrh, but it must have a general tonic action on the nervous system. Catarrh, even in persons who are otherwise strong, is a weakened condition of some mucous membrane. There must be something to strengthen the circu lation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise the vital forces. .Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the world has attracted so much attention from medical writers as HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS. The wonderful efficacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold upon the medical profession. When joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA a trio of medi cal agents is formed in Peruna which constitutes a specific remedy for catarrh that in the present state of medical progress cannot be improved upon. This action, reinforced bv such renowned tonics as COLLIXSONIA CANADENSIS, C0RYDAL1S FORMOSA and CEDRON SEED, ought to make this compound an ierles and museums, which he dismiss ideal remedy for catarrh in all it stages and locations in the body. 1 ed wlth an inarticulate grunt, be From a theoretical standpoint, therefore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The thought herself to inquire how he en use of Peruna confirms this opinion. Numberless testimonials from every quart- joye(i foreign cookery, and that of er of the earth furnish ample evidence that this judgment is not over enthusias- parts m particular, tic.

Mrs. Elizabeth Maxwell, of 415 West Fourth St., Olympia, Wash., says: "ior over three years I suffered with a dropsical condition without .T., being aware that F'.'r'nOT frnnhlo The, -lV 1. early stazes were nrincinallv back- ache and hearing down pain, but I went along with out worrying much until dropsy set in.

Rheumatism is more than skin deep it is rooted and grounded in the blood and can only be mrhrA W constitutional treatment IT CANNOT BE RUBBED AWAY, Rheumatism is due to aa excess of uric acid in the blood, brought about by the accumulation ia the system of refuse matter which the natural avenues of bodily waste, the Bowels and Kidneys, iiave failed to carry off. This refuse matter, coming in contact with the different acids of the body, forms uric acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body, and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. The aches and pains areonlysymptoms, and though they may be scattered or relieved for a time by surfacetreatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold or dampness, or after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. Rhetfma- tism can never be permanently cured while the circulation remains saturated with irritating pain-producing uric acid poison. The disease will shift from muscle to muscle or joint to joint, settling on the nerves, causing inflammation and swelling and such terrible pains that the nervous" system is often shattered, the health undermined, and perhaps the patient becomes deformed and crippled for life.

' shops and eatin' queer food right out Tradition seems to indicate, however, 1 side on the sidewalk, I come to know that there was a library in the sera peum, by no means a large collection, but whether destroyed by Theophllus or Theodosius is not known. It looks as if the charge brought against the Arabs rested on no foundation. Explo rations of Alexandria in 1805-90 show no traces of the serapeum. The sea port of Egypt was built on a damp foundation, and granting that there was a library,, if not destroyed by lire, then the papyri might have suffered from decay due t water.

Bread made from banana flour is common enough In Europe and Eng land. One pound is said to contain more nourishment and energy produc ing material than one pound of the finest beefsteak, Is much more digest ible and less than one-sixth the price. Sir Henry Stanley was a firm believer in the banana. He went so far as to advise that Its consumption would cure rheumatism, gout and all liver affec tions. When lying at the point of death from gastritis a light gruel of banana flour mixed with milk was the only food he could retain and digest. The secret of the banana as a health and strength producing food lies In Its high percentage of protelds and the great . number of its calories, respectively 20 I and 391.71. It is a perfectly balanced , ration if sliced for breakfast and serv- ed with milk and sugar. New York Press. ' ' Caution. "Why do you avoid making speeche yourself?" asked the friend.

Youth's Companion. AN UNKINGLY KING. The "king of beasts," declares a writ er upon the lions of Africa In the Met ropolitan Magazine, is an unmitigated nuisance. The stockowner loathes him for the havoc he causes among the herds. There is no security against him. He is always travelling. A pair of lions may find a spot where game is easily obtainable, and make a consid erable stay there, but their real home is the whole veld. If the liou slew only as much as he could eat, he would be less hateful ; but he will often kill four or Ave oxen, and content himself with devouring only the entrails of one. He is a low, crafty brute, one that takes no risks, for, unlike the leopard, he will never leap a wall unless he can see what la on the other side. A paper fence would keep him away from a herd of cattle, provided, they did not break out through terror of his growl- lu8 and hls sme11- Tne llon's roar la the subject of an- other Action ; not that ha is Incapable of making the most terrible, most terrible, awe-in spiring sound emitted by any living thing, but because when he is roaring he is harmless. It is the lion whicb keeps quiet that is to be feared, for as a rule the male and female work in couples, and the one that makes the noise Is merely driving the game down the wind to the silent partner. In a single respect only on the score of strength does the lion de serve his name of "king of beasts." He can drag a large bullock over rough ground with the greatest ease; he can carry a mule on his back, after hoist ing it there by some strange sideways Jerk of his head ; he can leap a five-foot fence with a full-sized donkey gripped in his mouth. Otherwise, speaking from a seven years' experience in the lion country, I have no hesitation in describing the king of beasts as a fraud at least so far as bis alleged nobility is concerned. His regal attributes lose some of their glamour when one learns that the so-called monarch frequently lives for days at a time on such plebeian food as field rats; and the vision of the kingly creature Bitting patiently on a flat rock waiting for the rata to come out from underneath Is a rather un- heroic one. fnmh Vh!!nff Tonid for in Anothe mb is being looked for In France-that of Leonardo da Vlnel at Ambolse.
