Grosvenor, Deputy Auditor for the War Department, la a letter written from Washington, D. C., eaya: ••Allow me to express ay gratitude to you tor the benefit derived from one bottle of Peruna. One week bee brought wonderful changes and I am now aa well aa ever. Bealdea being one of the very beat aprtng tonlca It la an excellent catarrh remedy. ” Very respectfully, Dan A. Grosvenor. v lohn Williams, County Com- . Duluth, Minn., aays the following In .517 West Second street, | regard to Peruna: “As a remedy. for catarrh I can cheerfully recommend Peruna. I know what It ia to suffer from that terrible disease add I feel that It is my duty to apeak a good word for the tonic that brought me Immediate relief. Peruna cured me of a bad case of catarrh and I know it will euro any other Sufferer from that Mias Mattie L. Guild,' President Illi nois Toung People’s Christian Temper ance Union, in a recent letter from Chicago, in., says: I “I doubt It Parana ha* a rival ia aB \ tha remedlee recommended to-day for catarrh of the aye tom. A remedy that will cure catarrh of the atomach will cure the aame condition of the mucoua membrane anywhere. I have found It the beat remedy I have ever tried for catarrh, and believing It worthy my endoraement l gladly accord It." Mrs. Klmer Fleming, orator of Res* ' errolr Council, No. 168, Northwestern Legion of Honor, of Minneapolis, Minn., writes from 2685 Polk St., N. B.: j 1 DtTC DNS troubled all my life with ca tarrh 1 u my head. I took Peruna for about three months, and now think I am permanent ly cured. I be lieve that for catarrh in all its forms, Peru na is the medi Mr*. Elmer Fleming, Minneapolis, Minn. cine of the ace. It cures when all other remedies fail. I can heartily recom mend Peruna as a catarrh remedy.” The spring is the. time to treat ca tarrh. Cold, wet winter weather often retards a cure of catarrh. If a course of Peruna is taken during the early spring months the cure will be prompt and permanent. There can be no fail ures if Peruna is taken intelligently during the favorable weather of spring.

(Copyright. 1901. by Dally Story Pub. Co.) Paul Weatover had every reason to congratulate himself upon the success of his new book. The public received it with gratifying approval, and the critics bestowed upon it well-tempered commendation. Being a first-born, however, the critics felt bound to pa tronize both it and its writer in their customary paternal fashion, and while lauding its other excellent qualities they pointed out and dwelt upon the un-reallstic improbabilities of the main Incidents in which Mr. West over's heroine was centered. That this should be so was only natural: Mr. Westover was ridicu lously young to know anything of the impenetrable feminine, and yet he had dared to make "Gertrude Warner” the story of a woman’s life, a story of many strange phases, and of curious though incorrect, said the reviewers, Insights into the workings of a young girl's mind. Westover was almost on the point of accepting the critic’s dictum. He had fancied that his portrayal of Ger trude Warner was well and clearly im agined, but after all what could he, a bachelor and Impressionable, know of women. The reviewers must be right. Gertrude Warner was falsely drawn. But there was at least one person who did not think with the reviewers. The newly-fledged author received in his mail from his publishers a long letter that was truly startling to his self possession. Its full length may not be given here but its gist is con tained in a couple of paragraphs. "You are evidently very intimately acquainted with the story of the dark est passages in my life, but surely it was unnecessary that the details should be made public so faithfully and so callously. I would like to think that your story was purely a coinci dence and evolved entirely from your own imagination, but the details up to the denouement, in every particular, are so carefully true to fact that I have no other course than to believe that some unworthy recipient of my confidence has in an idle moment be trayed my unhappy history. “Doubtless you will admit that I have at least the right of asking an explanation, the more especially, see ing that you have even given to your novel a title so like the name borne by her who asks it. "GERMYN WARREN." Westover finished the reading of this letter with a rue expression. He whistled softly to himself and looked blankly at the wall In an endeavor to collect his thoughts and adequately consider the situation presented to him. In a moment the humorous as pect of the affair dawned upon him and he laughed quizzically. "One of the delights of novel-writ ing,” he murmured aloud; “is to run across some hysterical woman who finds your book a mirror of her past. A startling letter. If I am expected to reply to all such my hands will be full. Yet what a splendid answer to the critics. His better and more sympathetic nature, however, for as yet he was not experienced enough to be callous, as serted Itself, and he penned a duly consolatory letter to Miss Germyn Warren. A week later Paul Westover had an encounter that caused him consider able embarrassment. “Mr. Westover, our youngest nov elist, Miss Warren.” The serenity and self-containedness of the frail pretty girl before him was in striking contrast to the blushing stammering awkwardness of the young author. The clear blue eyes, however, put him at his ease quickly and he found himself lost in amazement at how different the girl before him was from the morbid woman with a past he had pictured her. “Your letter—I suppose I may speak of it—was very kind,” her voice broke musically in upon his semi-absorption; "but there are some things In your book I would like to talk to you about. May IT” I Westover found himself in a quiet corner of the drawing room, anticipat ing a quarter of an hour’s stern cross examination at the hands of Miss War- | ren. Somehow the ordeal did not seem to bo so terrible as it would have seemed two days previously. 81tting In his armchair that night Paul Westover meditatively addressed the smoke-clouds from his cigar. "She Is wonderfully pretty—shu has exquisitely sweet eyes and what a charming talker, even though we did talk only of the serious things of life. 8he is Indeed an Ideal heroine—in real life.” Westover pulled himself up abruptly and laughed a quick, nervous laugh. "Come, this won’t do—contemplating such a thing already Is making haste too quickly—but that’s absurd. Why before I know it I’ll be thinking of marriage. And marriage would be the ruin of a young writer. It would—” But then Westover repeated to him self all the familiar arguments against ii « r r i “Yes, everything Mr. Weetover has written.” matrimony until finally he went to bed convinced If-not exactly-pleased. His encounter with Miss Germyn Warren, and the train of thought it prompted may have had something to do with Mr. Westover’s departure for the west, but the literary Journals an nounced his trip as taken for the pur pose of acquiring local color for a new novel. During the two years that followed Paul Westover’s literary output served to Increase considerably his growing reputation. He returned to New York and prepared to settle down comfort ably to meet the demands made upon him by his publishers. The novel, to prepare which he left New York, was a pronounced success, and though his old friends, the critics, did not appear to notice it, Paul himself was conscious of a certain resemblance In type between his new heroine and his old, that Is to say Miss Germyn War ren. He tried to reason that this new heroine was simply but a develop ment of the Gertrude Warner of his first book, and thus he tried to dis pel his lingering fears that he had drawn upon Miss Warren, his ac quaintance of a single evening. Again in his career Mr. Paul West over had an encounter which caused him to become as discomposed and nervous as he had been at his first meeting with the coincidental heroine of his first book. It was at a literary reception.. “Permit me, Miss Warren, to Intro duce to you Mr. Paul Westover—you have, no doubt read his clever books.” "Yes, everything Mr. Westover has written,” said Germyn Warren, as she extended her hand to Taul, who stood bowing and blushing like a schoolboy. Then with a smile of gentle mischief playing around her lips as they were left alone she continued: And I can not think that Mr. Westover has for gotten me since some of my friends would have it I am portrayed rather faithfully In your most recent novel and even in several of your magazine stories.” Westover was plainly surprised at this frank challenge, and for the sec ond time in his life he found himself keenly observing the heroine of his fiction. He noticed the same clear, blue eyes and wondered at how close ly he had remembered them all this time. He found himself on terms of old acquaintanceship with this mag netic little girl, for she was only a girl. For a moment until the pre sumption of the thing struck him he felt a tinge of regret being taken away from New York for so long. How that evening’s reception passed he never knew. He had a very definite notion that he had spent by far the greater part of the evening In the society of Miss Warren. That night in the seculsion of his chambers, over his cigar, he came not unwillingly to the conclusion that aft er all: “What is to be i3 to be, and it seems to me that the fates have ordained that I should creatb a heroine for my self. Either I am in love or am drift ing relentlessly towards that happy state of mind. Of course marriage is the to-be-expected outcome of love, and for a young man struggling for fame and fortune a sympathetic wife is a great helper, a constant incent ive—” and thus he proceeded to adapt his views to the altered state of his circumstances. “Who I» This Tennyson?" When Tennyson was nearing GO years of age, and his fame might fair ly be assumed to be world-wide, Ed ward Moxon, the publisher, decided to approach Gustave Dore and commis sion him to illustrate the “Idylls of the King.” After Dore had consid ered the proposals, he asked: “Who, then, is this M. Tennyson?” Thief Catchers as Thieves. A Catholic priest at Kroze, a small town in Poland, was awakened at night by masked Jobbers, who ordered him to produce the 1,200 roubles which he had to pay for the construction of a church.
