Peruna han been used so long In our family that I do not know how I could get along without It. I have given It to all of my children at dltfercnt times when they suffered with croup, colds and the many ali ments that children arc Hubjcct to, and am pleased to say that It has kept them In splendid health. I have- also used It for a catarrhal i difficulty of long standing and It cured mc In a short time, so I have every reason to praise Peruna." , Mrs. K. Kane. Pe-ru-na Protects tlio Untlre House hold Against Catarrhal Diseases. One of tin greatest foes with which eveiv family hns to contend is our changeable climate. To protect the utnlly from colds nuil coughs is always list-nous prohlom, anil often impossible. hooner or later it is the inevitable fate of every ono to catch cold, (.'are in uvojiliiiff exposure and the use of proper clothing Mill protect from tho fie iiucncy and iicrhiipitln' severity of colds, hub with the. greatest of precautions they will come. Tills is a settled fact of human experience. Everybody must expect to bo caught soniX'whero or bomchnw. Perhaps It will he wet feet, or a draught, or damp clothes, or it may he one of a thousand other little mishaps, hut no one is shrewd enough to always avoid the inevitable catching cold. There is no fact of medical science hotter known than that Peruna cures catarrh wherever located.

INVENTION Compass That Makes Records. In the Inst number of tho Ihillotin do la Socletc lndustriello do Marseil les we find described an apparatus Invented by M. Holt which nutomatl rall) registers, mlnuto by minute, tho direction of tho compass, so that by consulting the chart which Is tho re sult It In posslblo to dotormlno what tho route was that was followed at n given moment of tho passage. Tho rommandcr of a vossol Indicates to tho helmsman tho route which the ossel Bhottld follow, but ho does not Know whethor this routo Is followed unless ho Ih continually observing the compass. Tho Holt apparatus gives this Inormatlon, registering every rlinngo In tho position of tho vessel, every movo made by tho heltnsnmn and tho exact tlmo nt which such changes occurred. Public Opinion. Ear Trumpet In the Hat. Years ago. when a man was afflicted with blindness or deafness, It was sel dom that ho was cured of his trouble 5r benefited by treatment, oven If guy eff6rt was mado to allovlato lna allllctlon. It was generally taken for granted that tho case was incurable, at least by tho local physlclnns, nnd unless It could bo placed In tho hands if sonio skilled specialist, who was usually miles away, there could -bo Need Not be Carried In the Hand. lothlng to hopo for. But now tho ipcciallsts nro not only moro numer jus, but they have tho advantago of ill the latest scientific apparatus to lid them In tho examination nnd .roatmont of tho patient. In mnny cases of deafness which inly a shoit tlmo ago would have jeen considered Incurable tho physi cian has been enabled to find some mechanical appliance which would make It posBlblo at least for tho Inan Dr woman to catch many sounds which were entirely Inaudible before. Of courso those aids to tho hearing have boon carried about In tho hands, as a rule, but tho trouble Is generally slight In comparison with tho advan tago gained. Now, however, even this is unnecessary, as tho Jatc3t appliance af this kind is designed to bo carried In tho hat, without nsslstanco from either hand. Tho sound-receiving bells arc located In cither side of tho head, and the tubes which convoy those sound" to the cars project downward through the rim of tho hat, as illus trated. The connecting tubes nro capable of adjustment ns to length, nnd tho whole nrrnngemont Is scarcely noticeable, at least in compaiison to tho old style car trumpet or nietallc fan formerly used. Thomas W. Messenger of Quorn, South Australia, Is tho Inventor. A Cane-Umbrella. There lives In tho llttlo town of SImpsonvllle, Tex., a young lady whoso name may be inscribed on a roll In tho hall of fame some day, and all because hIio has solved one of the great popular problems of the Any. Ono of tho most aggravating experi ences of modern civilization Is to go out with an umbrella believing that there Is to bo rain, and after lugijing tho tiling about all the morning, or all the nftornoon, or perhnps all day, conio home without having even a suspicion for using It. Generally wo profit by this experience tho next tlmo It is cloudy by leaving tho um brella at homo and receive as our re ward a good drenching. Tho lady in tpiestlon has invented nn umbrella cane. This is a contrlv nnco embodying the two in ono. Tno umbrella Is rolled tight and fitted snugly in a long tubular leceptaclc, which Is surmounted with a pietty handle and makes an admirable cane. No one, of course, objects to carry ing a cane while walking, and if It insures protection from rain its desir ability Is increased Immeasurably. Nugget Jewelry. There nio few things under tho sun that are of any valuo that have not been so successfully imitated in choaper nrticles that tho bogus ono cannot bo dlstinguibhed from the gen ulno except by exports. It Is llUing, therefore, that an Imitation gold nug get fehnuld be doslgned by a citizen of Colorado, and if Ills nuggets pass muster In that climo whero nuggets aro on close terms of acquaintance with everybody who Is anybody, then his nuggets ought to bo able to shine In society elsewhere. So much doos tho lnvontor think of his scheme that ho has had It patented nt Washington nnd proposos io put tho product upon tho market at no moderate rates, of course. His method consists of reducing genuine gold Into a molten stato, "ami dropping tho samo while still iu a molton stato upon an uncontlncd mass of material re.ducod to small plccea, where the whole of the oxtorior of the metal is caused to assume a form simulating a natural nugget."

Curing and Smoking Bacon. J. W. 1. How Is a good brine mado? 2. What wood is best for smoking nnd how long should tho smoking bo continued? 1. Pork to bo pickled in brine should bo well rubbed and sprinkled with salt, then filled into a clean barrel, salt being sprinkled betweon tho lay ers, using no brine for forty-olght hours; then fill tho barrel with a brine of salt nnd water strong enough to bear an egg. 2. Oak or hickory chips, or corn cobs, make good smoko for meat, but they should bo green or kept moist &o as to prevent blazing. Hardwood sawdust Is also sometimes used for smoking moat. Such soft wood? as pine, cedar, mulberry, etc., are not suitable for this purpose. Con stant smoking for ono week Is recom mended by some authorities, or tho smoking may bo done half a day nt a tlmo for two or three weeks, accord ing to the fancy- ns to color. Salting Cattle Oat Hay. G. R 1. Is It well to have salt be fore cattlo continuously? 2. Is it wise to feed oat hay every day to cows due to calve In spring? 1. Tho most careful cnttle raisers prefer to have salt before their ani mals all the time, or at least once dally. When cattlo are salted only at Intervals of a week or longer, as is often the case, tho animnls Invariably take moro than is good for them, which has a moro serious effect than Is generally supposed. The 111 effect Is caused by overtaxing the kidneys, producing undue thirst, and unduly exhausting the body of flesh-producing materials. When nnimals have access to calt each day they take only as much as their systems require, which does them goou w Ithout injury of any kind. 2. Unless oat hay Is affected with smut or mold there Is no objection to feeding it to pregnant animals. It Is not considered safe to give fodder af fected with cither of these fungi to cows soon due to calve. Vetches for Hog Pasture. I... B. W. How would it answer to sow vetches on clay land along with timothy and clover seed, and how many pounds of seed should bo np plied per acre? 2. Would it bo advis able to sow a small Held of vetches for hog pasture? 1. Vetches would not be a good crop to seed down with if they arc 'to bo allowed to mature, because they, like pens, aro apt to fall down and smother the young seeds. They may, however, bo sown with advantage along with clover to bo pastured off by hogp. After tho vetches aro all pastui cd orf, the young clover will forgo ahead and make good fall pas ture for the animals. 2. Vetches alono mako very good hog pnbiure. as they aro much relished, very nourishing and produco a good growth which comes up repeatedly aflor being eaten off. Vetches should bo sown nt tho rate of about one bushel to tho acre. Hen Manure and Fertilizers. A. A. CJ. Cabbages nro gross feed ors and generally give a good re aponso to heay applications of fertil izers, though too much available nitro gen very oarly in tho season mny do harm by causing an unduo develop ment of loaf nt tho oxponso of the "head," which, under such circum stances, doos not form normnlly. Wo would, therefore, delay tho application of tho nitrate of soda until after tho hoads have begun to form, and then uso it ns a top dressing nt tho rate of 100 to 200 His. per aero. It would prob ably lio foil ml piofltablo to apply a certain amount of potash with the hen manuro before planting out tho cab bages. Wood ashes answer admirably for this purpose, but if not obtainable, murlato of potash at the rate of 100 lbs. per aero may be used. Radium Water. Tho possibility of using radium to convert ordinary rain and well water into a mineral water more highly medicinal than any known natural minora! wator has been domonbtratod at tho University of Michigan, In a series of experiments covering some ton weeks. In searching for a method by which radium could bo applied to tho intorior of a cancer without any dan ger of tho torrlblo radium or X-ray hums. It was demonstrated that tho immersion of a scaled tube in sure, distilled water for twonty-four hours producos radloaetivo wator of powor ful offects. Injected Into cancor, this water stopped pain iu ten minutes. o IB i J The Sultan's Wonderful Jewels. A correspondent, writing from Con stantinople to a I'nrls journal, pre tonds, as tho result of personal In spection, to give details of tho amaz ing collection- of jewels In tho sultan's treasury. Tho turbans of nil tho sul tans since Mahomet II. arc thoro, all gi .torlng with rare and largo gems of tho purest water. There aro also tho royal throne of Persia, carried oft the Turks In lfil4, nnd covered with more than 20,000 rubles, emeralds and fine pearls, and also the trono of Su leiman I., from tho domo of which there hangs over tho head of tho ca liph an emerald six inches long anil four deep. Theso two thrones are tho chief objects in tho collection.

Opal, Wyo., May 1C. After suffer ing terribly for four or five years, Mr. A. J. Kohner of this placo, has been completely restored to good health. His case and its euro Is another proof of tho wonderful work Dodd's Kidney Pills can do. Mr. Kohner says: "For four or flvo years I havo boon a sufferer with Kidney trouble and a pain over my Kidneys. I thought I would give Dodd's Kidney Pills a trial and I am glad I did so, for they have dono ne good work and 1 feel all right again." Many cases aro being reported every week in which Dodd's Kidney Pills have effected cures of the most serious cases. Theso strong testimonies from earn est men and women aro splendid tri butes to tho curative properties of Dodd's Kidney Pills and judging by these letters, there is no case of Kid ney trouble or Backache that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not euro promptly and permanently.
