President Itoosovolt made a apoooh on patriotism and good citizenship at tho dedication of tho monument erect cd In tho National cemetery at Arling ton to tho memory of tho "Rough Illders" of the Spanish-American war. The President spoko of tho bitter grief war entails. "Tho deepest woe, howovor," ho said, "tho grief hardoBt to bear must como not to those who go to war, but to the women and children who stay behind." The President spoke of the admira tion felt by those who served in the voluntoer forces for tho officers and enlisted men of the regular army and navy. Ho was sure all volunteers came out of tho war feeling as ho did, that It should bo their aim thereafter to do everything that lay In tholr powor for tho army and navy of tho Union which, by their readiness for war make tho greatest guaranty for peace this country possesses. "Tho man you cared for in the war," the President said, "was the man who did his plain duty right along just as it came, from digging Binks nnd policing camp to leading a forlorn hope. All of this contains just tho les son we need most In our civil llfo. We could not get on In the army, wo nov- or could conduct a war to a successful conclusion, if we permitted ourselves to be sundered by nny class or caste or social or sectional or religious pre judice; and we cannot conduct the af fairs of this nation ns they can and shall be conducted save by putting in to effect tho same troits that enable us to do well in war." After referring to the dead, the resident said: "Tho supremo leBson for all of us In that homage that counts is the hom age, not of the lips, but of the heart: the homage we pay to the memory of the valiant dead when we firmly re solve so to lead our lives that when we die we may feel not wholly tin worthy to have been their comrades." QUAKER REFLECTIONS. Philadelphia Record. A Kensington halter advortised: "We cap the climax." ft The voice of conscience never has te go abroad for cultivation. ft Few men thank heaven that they have more than they deserve. ft liven tho fat woman may try to making light of her avoirdupois, ft People who live In glass houses shouft beware of tho glass eater. A girl can generally manage to keep the tears back If crying makes ner nose red. ft o When It comes to deciding between a rich scoundrel and a penniless saint, of the two evils a girl usually choos es the leust saintly. The Kiss. It has no valuo for only one person. It is the expression of supreme hap piness for two persons. The child gets It gratis. The yeung man steals it. The old man buys it. It is tho right of children; the privi lege of lovers and the mask of hypo crites. For a young lady it represents Faith, fer the wife Hope and for the old maid harlty. N. Y. World. "Yen Never Can Tell." MaJ. Spilkcr is a little man, very fat, very gonial, and with a heaa as asvoia of lmir as a porcelain door knob. His ,w!fo, Mrs. Algltha Spllkor Is orawny. sarcastic and deaf. A person could kick a tin bathtub down tho back stepa all night, and Mrs. Spllkor would snore illke a brass horn In blissful Ignorance (of the noise, which provos that sho is jrather deal. Thero aro two things in tho world of iwhich Mrs. Spilkcr is very fond a party nnd her husband. Sho never falls to accept an Invitation to one, or to carry tho other with her. Not long ago thoy attended a birth day party, and tho major was down I to propbso tho health of "Tho Dv bies." Being very fond of children, it was thought that this toast would Just suit tho major. Unfortunately for MaJ. Spilkcr and the assembled guests, he changed his tonst to "Tho Ladies" without warning his wife of tho fact, who, or course, thought her husband would confine himself to the toast of the littlo onex "Now, MaJ. Spllker, said Mrs. Bar ker, the hostess, as the dinner ad vanced, "It is your turn to give your toast, and pray Bay something compli mentary to our sex." "When my charming hostess," said tho major rising, "requests me to do a thing, it Is my duty to obey. There fore I take pleasure In drinking tlie health of tho ladles. The ladles cher ish us In prosperity, soothe us in aa verslty ,and, by their tender minisler Ings, lighten the burden of lire. I drlnic to the ladies." When the applause subsided, Mrs. Spllker, ignorant of the true subject of the toast, but glowing with prldo and admiration, said: "Oh. Mrs. Barker, you don't know how fond tho major Is of them. I havo seen him have two or three on his lap nt once, and " "Algitha!" gasped the major. "just teasing tho lire out of the poor, dear things. He Is such u favor ite with them, and every change bo gets he is sure to have them in his arms or be romping with them. He's got the lovingest nature of any man I ever saw, and somehow tliey como to him when they won't to any one r is" Maj. Spllker fell back in his chair with a groan. Tit-Bits. Organ to Save a Woodpile. A number of years ago a village In the eastern part of tho town of Mld dleboro, was very much wrought up over the introduction of a musical in strument In their church service. At the final meeting when the matter was to be settled excitement ran high. One man whose reputation for hon est dealings was not always above sus picion made a fiery speech in opposi tion. A neighbor whose back yard joined the speaker's, could hardly wait for the close of the remarks. Then jumping to his feet without waiting to address the chairman he said: "Gosh, sir, if I had known the gen tleman was so afraid of an organ I should have had one hung on my wood pile years ago."

MONROE ORCO.,VllMii Tlit Evolutioi of Household Remedies The modern patent medicine busi ness la the natural outgrowth of the old time household remedies. In the early history of this country EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas, bit ters, laxatives and tonics, were to be found in almost every house, com pounded by the housewife, sometimes assisted by the apothecary or the fanv lly doctor. Such remedies as plcra, which was aloes and quassia, dissolv ed In apple brandy. Sometimes a hop tenlc made of whiskey, hops and bit ter barks. A score or more of popular, home-made remedies were thus com pounded, the formulae for which were passed along from house to house, sometimes written, sometimes verbally communicated. The patent medicine business Is a natural outgrowth from this whole some, old time custom. In the begin ning, some enterprising doctor, Im pressed by the usefulness of one of these home made remedies, would take It up, Improve It in many ways, manu facture it on a large scale, advertise It mainly through almanacs for the home, and thus It would become used over a large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSEHOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK A MORE EXACT AND SCIEN TIFIC FORM. Peruna was originally one of these old time remedies. It was used by the Mennonites, of Pennsylvtnla, before it was offered to the public for sale. Dr. Hartman THE ORIGINAL COM POUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men nonite origin. First, he prescribed it for his neighbors and his patients. The sale of it Increased, and at last he established a manufactory and fur nished it to the general drug trade. Peruna is useful in a great many climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds, sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal diseases generally. THOUS ANDS OF FAMILIES HAVE LEARN ED THE USE OF PERUNA and Its value in the treatment of these ail ments. They have learned to trust and believe in Dr. Hartman's judg ment and to rely on his remedy, Peruna.
