It Is said that Egyptian and Turk

Instead of li(K) wives, some of the old
fellows are finding It dllllcult to sup

lo support a hunch of wives, lie finds
It cheaper to obey the law of monog

when temporary places of business
were provided and men Avoro making

All over tho land there Is a dearth
of schoolmistresses. Even In the
East, where women aro superabundant
and tho schoolma'ain was always not

now a cry for more teachers. School
agencies say that never before were so
few woll-tralnod women Instructors ob
talnable. All give marriage as the
cuuio. Time was when the school
j.Islreas was a drug on the matrl
. jionlal market. A woman put off as

iiuunt for a lonely llfo, with no
hopo of marriage. "Old maid school

that Is now changed and the school'
hdstress In having things her owr

clubs, have made her a most delight
ful companion, fitted for any social sta

have been quick to see the change and
have learned that now the aehoolmls

houwehold arts and In klndorgarlonlnfl
as well as In the au'-Ient and modern
languages. She understands how tc
keep the home sanitary and how to
make the purse serve the best lntorosti

then, that boards of education and
school superintendents are at their
wits' ends lo secure teachers willing tfl
sign a contract containing an nntt
marriage clause covering a specified
period. They will soon have to be
thankful If they can get them on anj
terms which the women themselvej
are pleased to make, for Just now tin

The chairman of the Western Pas
senger Association says the great In
crease In Immigration during llXM win
due largely to tho Inducements oll'erei'
by tho railroads to settlers on tin
farm lands in the northwest, the south
west and the far west. Nearly ull tin
railway systems, It Is said, have theli
agents In Europe drumming up Imml
grants. When the question of restrict
lug Immigration by Imposing an edu
rational qualification was before tin
last Congress representatives of sev
eral large western roads wore heard It
opposition to It. They did not snj
that the proposed restriction would In
terfero with the work the roads aro do
ing In planting settlers on their owe
lands or on other unfilled lands in tlx
regions traveled by their lines. It wal
claimed then that the railroads wen
hard put to It to get all tho eomnior
labor they needed and that It woulf
be an Injury to them to cut off tht
European supply In whole or part. Tin
railroads do not feel so prosperous ai
they did two years ago. They havi
not the need of labor they had then,
or which their olllcers said they had
Immigration Is stimulated now not t
get labor but to get settlers and alsc
to get tho sums which they pay foi
their transportation. It has been sur
mised that as the steamship lines so
licit Immigration because they mulct
money out of It, so many railroads ar
governed by the same motive. 11
will bo admitted that an Immigrant,
planted on a western farm Is a doslr
able acquisition. That is not neces
sarlly true of an Immigrant who, when
he lands, plunges Into the overcrowded
slums of New York City and stays
there either because h- prefers to stuj
or has not the money with which t
make his escape Only a small pro
portion of tho steerage passengers 01

Immigration was due largely to tht
efforts of the railroads the roads did
much moro to Increase the populatlot
of the great cities of the east than ol
the rural districts of the west. It maj
be that their efforts brought more un

"Pcruna is a fine medicine to take any season of the year.

PURE BLOOD
Blood Impurities of Springtime
Cause, Prevention
and Cure.
Dr. IIurtinnn'H medical lectures arc
eagerly scanned by many thousand
readers.
One of the niot timely and interesting
lectures lie ever delivered was his recent
lecture on the blood impurities of spring.
The doctor said in substance that ev
ery tipring the blood is loaded with the
effete iieouniiihitions of winter, derang
ing the digestion, producing sluggish
ness of the liver, overtaxing the kid
neys, interfering with the iietiou of the
bowels and the proper circulation of the
blood.
This condition of things produces
what is popularly known as spring fever,
spring malaria, nervous exhaustion,
that tired feeling, blood thickening and
many other names.
Sometimes the victim is bilious, dys
peptic and constipated; sometimes he is

he may have eruptions, swellings and
other blood humors. Whichever it is,
the cause is the same effete accumula

Nothing is more certain within tho
whole range of medical science than that
a course of Pcruna in early springtime
will perfectly and effectually prevent
or cure this almost universal affection.
Everybody feels it in some degree.
A great majority are disturbed con
siderably, while a large per cent of tho
human family aro made very miserahlo
by this condition every spring.
Pcruna will prevent it if taken hi
time.
Perana will cure it if taken as di
rected. Pc rutin is tho Ideal spring medicine ot
the medical profession.
