Remarkable Cures
Effected
By Pc-ru-nn.
Under date of January 10, 1897, Dr.
Jlartman received tho following let
ter: "My wife lias been a sufferer from
a complication of diseases for the past
twenty-five years. Hor case has baf
fled tho skill of somo of tho most
noted physicians. Ono of her worst
troubles was chronic constipation of
several years' standing. She was also
pausing through that most critical
period In tho Hfo of a woman change
of life.
"In Juno, 1895, I wrote to you about
her enso. You advised a course of
Pcruna and Manalln, which wo at
once commenced, and have to say It
completely cured her.
"About tho same time I wrote you
about my own case of catarrh, which
nod been of twenty-five years' stand
ing. At times I was almost past going.
f commenced to use Peruna according
to your Instructions and continued Its
use for about a year, and It has com
pletely cured me. Your remedies do
all th nt you claim for them, and even
more." John O. Atkinson.
In a letter dated January 1, 1900,
Mr. Atkinson says, after five years'
experience with Peruna:
"I will ever continue to apeak a good
word for Peruna. I am still cured of
catarrh." John O. Atkinson, Inde
pendence, Mo., Box 272.

HOW TO FIND GROUSE.
Uncertain Birds to Which Rules Co
Not Always Apply.
Tho rtiffod grouso Is one of the un
certain birds to which no hard nnd
fast rules will apply, says a writer In
Outing, yet ho has a few small po
culiatities of which advantage may bo
taken. In wild, heavy woodland, his
original haunt, ho has a woaknoss for
two things an old toterund, or any
seldom used road, nnd tho bank of n
stream.
A man tr.ing a bit of woods wllh
which ho Is unaccustomed probably
will see moro grouse near an old road
thnn. anywhere else. In hilly country
tho lower slopes of tho ravines aro
npt to bo tho bust ground. In lovol
country tho long strips of thicket bor
dering largo blocks of standing tim
ber nro ideal places and If tho thicket
happens to mark tho edge of a clover
field so much tho belter.
Never pass even a small thicket
which stands out In a clover field with
n wood upon any side. Grouse nro
fond of clover and until tho winter
sets in aro apt to bo In any fair shel
ter near tho field. Later, in snow
tlmo, tho borders and Interior of largo
woodland swamps nro tho chosen
places. If there bo a region of thick,
low-lying forest, having close-grown
beech ridges hero nnd there, theso
surely will repay tho labor of boating
them, for they nro almost certain to
bo tho strongholds of all tho ruffed
grouso of tho neighborhood. Old
windfalls and slashings nro good be
causo they afford ncrc3 of tho sort
of shelter tho birds prefer in cold
weather.
Should a single bird flush, proceed
wnrlly and ready for instant action,
for a second and pcrhnps thrco or
four stragglers may bo within gun
shot of tho spot. Ground good for
ono bird may bo as attractive to three
or four, although each Individual re
mains somo slight dlstnnco from tho
others. When boating border thick
ets with a comrade, I prefer to work
in tho cover about along the lino
whero thicket nnd forest join. Most
men will chooso tho outside, but
ruffed grouse nlmost invariably dash
for tho wood, henco across tho lino
of fire of tho inside man. Such shots
aro nono too easy nnd trees have a
knack of getting in tho way, yet n3
a general thing tho lusido position
menns tho most fun.
An Ingalls Story.
Mr. John J. Ingalls, who was alwayn
stoical, who wns not seemingly af
fected by passion and who was per
fectly Indifferent to pleasure or pain,
wns somo years ago making a long
drlvo in tho western pnrt of tho state
with a compnnion. They wero out
campaigning, wero full of gyp wntcr,
wero wholly enveloped In tho dust of
tho desert, their broncos being com
pletely fagged while wearily approach
ing tho end of a flfty-mllo drlvo. Not
a word had been spoken for half an
hour. Ingalls sat stlflly bcsldo his
companion, his hair, his face, his
clothing thick with the alkali dust that
floated in clouds abovo them. Clear
ing his throat as he turned his faco
to tho west, he majestically waved his
hand to his companion, and, speaking
In his characteristic guttaral tones,
said: "What a magnificent sunset."

No Money in Voting.
A colored man who registered In

most of tho questions bothered him.
Ho asked that they be repeated and

"Whero did you live when you voted

"Now, what do you want to know
that fur?" ho asked.
"Tho law requires It," was tho re
ply. "I never voted befoah," ho an
swored. Then ho seemed to think that
an explanation wns demanded, bo ho
added: "You see, I vo lived In No'th

pay poll tax of two dollars er yo kalnt
