"I cannot too highly recommend your preparation for 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 I cheerfuiiy certify to its curative excellence. Mr. Fred T.. Hebard, for nine years a leading photographer oi Kansas City. Mo., located at the northeast cocner 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." Pe-ru-na in Tablet Form. For two years Dr. Hartman and his assistants have incessantly la bored to create Peruna in tablet form, and their strepuous labors have just been crowned with success. People wjjp object to liquid medicines can now secure Peruna tablets, which rep resent the sojid medicinal ingredients of Peruna. "20-Mule-Team" Borax tends to stop the development of blight and mildew, and destroys parasitical insects.

Johnny arrived In the early after- noon, and 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 folloved him, and, to her amazement, beheld her grandson bravely at work on a bowl of spearmint tea which she had forgot fully put in the place where she bad told him to find the milk. "Why, child," she cried, seizing the bowl from poor Johnny, "don't you know this isn't milkr "I I knew it wasn't like Hlllbury milk," stammered Johnny, with a final gulp, "but I thought maybe it was the kind folks had in Worcester." Peppermint and Tobacco. . If you have a boy who has begun smoking too early and whom you wish to cure of the habit, feed him pepper mints. Dr. O. Clayton Jones of Silver ton, England, 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 even 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 Tiew the sucking of peppermints is far less hurtful. A common 'bullseye' will prevent smoking for nearly an hour, so the amount ef sweets used need not be great" Unanswerable. The lion was sneering at the awkward, uncouth, and 1 generally ugly ' appearance of the elephant, "I may not be as graceful as you are,' observed the elephant, "but I'm nearer akin to the human family than you are. The knees of my hind legs bend forward, as a man's legs do, While yours bend back ward, the same as a hyena's, or a hog's, or a skunk's. You belong to a lower order of creation, and I'd rather not associate with you on terms of equality if it's all the same to you." Whereat the lion, observing that the elephant was waving his trunk threaten ingly, went back among the wolves and coyotes, where he still retained some pres tige. An Unfortunate Misunderstanding.

Punch. the heai'cowbot: Wo Lonarer an Animated Battery, bnt a Broncho Banter Still. It is quite true that the cowboy of to-day is not a college man, nor one at all familiar with the manners and customs of polite- society, says Out West. Neither does he go about his dally task with a brace of six-shooters slung at his hips and a repeating rifle held In the crook of his arm. Barbed wire fences, steam railroads, police courts and penitentiaries have rendered such appurtenances superflu ous. And immediately after pay day he does cot sweep down upon the nearest town, shoot out the lights and take part in a gun fight or two. For the $30 or $40 a month which he receives a strict attention to the duties of hs lob Is expected, and in these days of strenuous competition a Job Is a pre cious thing. The life of the modern cowboy is as 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. .

THE CUHEFOH SCROFULA Aa-ency In Spreading: Dt cease Wm Discovered Many Years Ago. At the time of the discovery of the mosquito's agency in breeding disease it was not dreamed that far more than the germ of the truth had been reveal ed many years before, says the New York Sun. The truth was told in 1853 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 pages and for gotten, and has now been resurrected by the Havana Cronlca Medico and the British Medical Journal. In May, 1853, Louis Daniel Beauper- thuy, a native of Guadaloupe and health officer at Camana, wrote to the Gaceta 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, 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 being 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 uo weak, frail, scrofulous persons and makes them strong and healthy. .

For derangements of thedi gestive organs it is a natural corrective, operating directly upon the liver and ali mentary canal, gently but persistently stimulating a healthful activity. Its beneficial influence extends, however, to every portion of the system, aiding in the processes of digestion and assimilation of food, promoting a wholesome, natural appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad breath, irregularities of the bowels, con stipation and the long list of troubles directly traceable to those unwholesome conditions.
