"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.

freely around the wainscoting and floors

When Johnny Hobos Jeft his home
up among the New Hampshire hills to

Mass., he was cautioned by his mother
that he would And things In the city
strangely different from those at home.
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,

of the elephant,
"I may not be as graceful as you are,'
observed the elephant, "but I'm nearer

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.

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 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. .

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.

KASPARILLA -'
This sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for a "world of
troubles." 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. Kasparilla -dispels drowsi
ness, headache, backache and despond
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. It is a
strengthening -tonic of the highest value.
