More than a mere handful there could not be in any case, since another tremen dous difference between past and pres ent sea fighting ,|s that the steel-clad monsters go into battle with hardly a man visible, almost all of them hid den behind massive walls shut in from the devastating Impact of large pro jectiles, as well as the horrible hail of Hotchkiss and Maxim bullets. The pomp and pageantry of sea war fare in Nelson’s day, with Its stripped crowds of men swarming about the Incumbered decks, and streaming flags from every mast, have gone with the towering ranges of sails and nimble sailors who leapt about aloft handling them even during the height of battle. The new man-of-war goes into the fight grim, unadorned, and apparently proceeding by her own volition, like some unthinkable marine monster be gotten of the elder slime. Nor will the elements Interfere either to retard or accelerate the Issues as once they did. Whether it be calm or storm, blue sky or fog, night or day, the battle will be joined. To a landsman, and even to a mer chant seaman, there is something pe culiarly terrifying in the notion of a sea fight in a fog. It is a time of terror even in peaceful navigation, since the great sea breadths seem to have contracted, and one’s faculties are kept at their utmost tension in case of running ucross another ship. Fog is the only elemental condition that suc ceeds in making the great, wide sea look a little place, where not merely navies have no room to float, but it seems impossible to avoid colliding with the only other ship that was in sight before those fleecy walls of mys tery closed in upon the seafarers. Yet the modern sea warrior among us is trained to welcome that terrifying con dition of things, to dash at utmost speed through the thickness and burst upon bls euemy with the sudden un expectedness of the lightning stroke. And to add to all these terrible con ditions of modern sea warfare we have now the submarine. Not content with the mighty arena of conflict afforded hy the open surface of the sea, in gale, or fog, or calm, the sea fighter must now descend into darkness and si lence. the realm of the utterly un known, in order that he may haply hurl, at one fell blow as from a burst ing volcano, into blazing, boiling ruin and death, eight hundred lives, and the revenue of a principality.

Rush, 5435 Kin- earde street, Pittsburg, Pa., Superin. tendent Junior Society of Methodist Protestant Church and leading soprano of the choir, writes: “Words cannot describe my thankfulness to you for Peruna. I was a sufferer from sys temic catarrh for years and was in a very much run down condition. I was extremely nervous and had the most foolish fears over nothing. I was thin and emaciated. “My physician advised me to leave this climate but as it was not conven ient to do so at this time, I took the advice of a friend to use a bottle of Pi - runa. 1 took it faithfully and when the first bottle was gone I felt so much better that I bought six more and took them faithfully, alter which 1 looked like a new woman. “I gained in flesh, my appetite re turned and all my old symptoms had disappeared. I am more than thank ful to Peruna.” — Miss Bertha M. Rush. I AM TIRED. Everybody Is Tired—Spring Weath er Does It—Every One Should Be Cautious. Depression of the nervous system at the approach of spring is the cause. General lassitude, dull, heavy sensa tions, continual tired feeling, with ir regular appetite, and sometimes loss of sleep. Peruna meets every indication and proves itself to be perfectly adapted to all their varied peculiarities. Fe- runa invigorates the system, rejuve nates the feelings, restores the normal appetite and produces regular sleep. That tired feeling which is the nat ural result of the depressing effect of warm weather immediately after the invigorating cold of winter, quietly dis appears when Peruna is taken. Thous ands are daily testifying to its priceless benefit. Mrs. H. Kassatt, 1309 W. 13th street, Des Moines, la., writes: “I am happy to give my endorsement for your valuable medicine, Peruna, as I consid er it a valuable medicine to take when the system is run down from overwork. About two years ago I felt that I must take a long rest as I had been unable to work for over a menth and could not regain my strength. I could not sleep at night and was in a very nerv ous, high strung, condition. I decided to try what Peruna would do to build up my strengtn, and am pleased to say that I began to improve very shortly, and in less than two months I was able to take up my work, and felt better than I have for years. I take it now twice a year and find that it keeps me in perfect heatlh.” Mrs. Kassatt was foi over ten years the manager of a plant furnishing ladies’ wear and em ploying hundreds of women. ABSOLUTE SECURITY. NOT A SKIN DISEASE, It is natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when rheumatic pains are shooting through the joints and muscles and they are inflamed and sore, the sufferer is apt to turn to liniments and plasters for relief; and while such treatment may quiet the pain temporarily, no amount of rubbing or blistering can cure Rheumatism, because it is not a skin disease, but is in the blood and all through the system, and every time you are exposed to the same conditions that caused the first attack, you are going to have another, and Rheumatism will last just as long as the poison is in the blood, no matter what Jou apply externally.
