' “ The great majority of ner
vous women are so because they
are suffering from some form of female
disease.
Mrs. Emma Mitchell, 520 Louisiana
Street, Indianapolis, Ind., writes:
“I’eruna has certainly been a blessing
In disguise to me, for when I first began
taking it for troubles peculiar to the sex
and a generally worn out system, I had
little faith.
“For the past five years 1 have
rarely beer: without pain, but Pe
ru n a has changed all this, and in
a very short time. 1 think 1 had
only taken two bottles before I
began to recuperate very quickly,
and seven bottles made me well.
/ do not have headache or back
ache any more, and have some in
terest In life. I give all credit
where it is due, and that Is to Pe
runa.—Emma Mitchell.
By far the greatest number of female
troubles are caused directly by catarrh.
They are catarrh of the organ which is
affected. These women despair of re
covery. Female trouble is so common, so
prevalent, that they accept it as almost in
evitable. The greatest obstacle in the way
of recovery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is thesourceof their
illness. In female complaint, ninety-nine
cases out of one hundred are nothing but
catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh wherever
located.
Chronic invalids who have languished for
years on sick beds with some form of female
disease begin to improve at once after be
ginning Dr. Hartman’s treatment.
Among the many prominent women who
recommend Peruna are:—Belva Lockwood,
of Washington, D. C.; Mrs. Col. Hamilton,
of Columbus, Ohio; Mrs. F. E. Warren, wife
of U. S. Senator Warren, of Wyoming.
If you do not derive prompt and satisfac
tory results from the use of Peruna, write
at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full state
ment of your case, and he will be pleased
to give you his valuable advice grafts.

Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio.

1 SIGHTS SEEN BY TRAVELER |
j ALONG THE MODERN NILE j
Traveling by the ordinary methods
you may go from Alexandria to Khar
tum in about six days, says the Lon
don Standard. Easily and smoothly you
wing through the fertile cotton fields
of the delta and Its populous cities and
villages, prosperous but dirty, and at
Cairo you settle down into a most com
fortable sleeping car for the night jour
ney to Luxor. Early next morning you
are in the cane fields of upper Egypt,
with the river close on one side and
the desert on the other.
At Luxor you must change to the
narrow gauge for Assouan, and there
is time to refresh yourself w'ith bath
and breakfast and to look across at
the plain of Thebes and the valley, of
the tomb of the kings, or to ride a
donkey out to Karnak. From Luxor to
Assouan it is hot and dusty enough,
and you are glad to rest there for the
night. Next day you embark at Shel
lal, above the dam, for Wady Haifa, a
leisurely voyage of three days. It is
a most beautiful reach of the river;
the hills come down to the water in
bold, rugged outlines, showing to per
fection in the pure, dry desert air. The
effect of the dam is clearly seen as far
as Korosko. First of all, at Shellal
the boat is moored amid a grove of
palm trees, the temples of Nubian vil
lages look quaint enough as they stand
on the edge of the desert, forlornly
mourning their strip of cultivated land,
most of which the greedy reservoir
has swallowed.
The boundary between Egypt and
the Sudan, settled by the convention of
1899, runs along the twenty-second par
allel: not far beyond this is the fron
tier town of Haifa. There is no mis
taking the signs of British rule. The
whole place Is rigidly clean, an ex
traordinary contrast to the filth of the
Egyptian villages. The streets are well
laid out and scrupulously swept, and
slmdy avenues of trees are springing
up. Haifa is the railway terminus of
the Sudan. It is twenty-eight hours to
Khartum. Nothing can be more com
fortable than the well-appointed sleep
ing-car train, which runs twice a week.
Starting at eight in the evening, you
strike right across the Baynda desert,
most desolate and forlorn of countries.
The stations have no names, but arc
known merely by their numbers. In
the morning you come to Abu llaraed
— back to the Nile once more. Here
was the scene of one of the stillest
lights in the Sudan campaign, when
Gen. Hunter made his dash from Kor
ki, and here are the graves of the
white officers of the Tenth Sudanese
battalion, round which the black sol
diers who died with them keep ghost
ly watch and ward forever, and so re
deem the credit of the regiment, which
came back from the battle without its
leader.
From here onward the journey is full
of Interest. Berber is springing up
again from its ruins; it even boasts
two stations. Then comes the At
bara, with its famous bridges and
then Matiner, where there is this year
a camp of exercise for the Egyptian
army. The camp had a most business
like appearance. Just as we arrived a
train came steaming in with a bat
talion of infantry, all in full marching
order; it was exactly like a regiment
detraining at the front in real war.
Shendy is the Crewe of the Sudan,
and, an hour or two later, we ran into
the terminus at Halfaya.
I; RICH FINDS MADE IN
{ OLD TOMBS IN EGYPT j
Some important archaeological dis
coveries made recently at Beni Hasan,
a site in Egypt famous for its painted
tombs and early architectural features,
are detailed by Prof, John Garstang,
of University college, Liverpool.
A vast necropolis has been un
earthed, remarkable for the preserva
tion of the furniture in its tombs and
for the wealth of material which these
supplied in illustrating the burial cus
toms of the Middle Empire. Four bun
dled and ninety-two tombs hewn in the
rock have been opened and examined.
More than 100 of them had never been
previously entered since their doors
were closed at the time of Interment
4,000 years before.
In the tomb of one Nefer-y, a chief
physician, the huge painted coffin was
surrounded by a numoer of wooden
models of objects and scenes familiar
from the wail paintings of the larger
tombs.
Upon the coffin rested a great row
ing boat, the twenty oarsmen standing
and swing back in time to the beat of
two figures seated on a raised platform
in the center. Beyond this was the
model of a granary with six compart
ments in rows of three on either side
of the courtyard between them. Men
were standing knee deep in real grain
filling baskets, while a scribe seated
on the roof, pen in hand, kept count.
A well-executed group found by the
excavators in another tomb repre
sented the making of beer from fer
mentation of break by a similar proc
ess to that employed by the natives
to-day. Beside the coffin was a sailing
boat, the numerous sailors assuming
the attitude necessary for hoisting the
large square sail, of which the yards
and rigging were preserved. Two men,
in characteristic pose], were using
poles vigorously over the sides.
In another tomb were found models
of a number of warships. In the bow
of one, by the side of the lookout,
stood a negro sailor, bow and arrow in
hand. In the tomb of Antef, a courtier,
the boats had double steering enrs. In
one boat were seated two men under
a canopy, playing a game of chess.
The opening of each tomb was re
corded by photography, as the excava
tion proceeded step by step, 450 neg
atives being taken in all.
; LIFE AND LOVE BOTH
: CHEAP IN THE CAUCASUS :
In the northern Caucasus nearly half
the death rate of the inhabitants Is
caused by vendetta, and at least three
fourths of the vendetta cases are the
result of a curious marriage custom
which is now' decimating the popula
tion. The native of those parts who
wishes to take unto himself a wife
cannot arrange the matter in the sim
ple offhand manner in vogue in west
ern Europe by “popping the question.”
He must go home, sell his belong
ings, and buy her fairly and squarely
of her parents, the price ranging from
$175 to $1,000. This is a costly custom
i:i many ways, for it is not every young
man who can afford to invest such a
large sum in a w'ife, however accom
plished. What generally happens in
such cases is that the indigent candi
date for the order of Benedick induces
a few stalwart comrades to seize the
maiden and carry her off.
What too often follows then may be
gathered from a case in point which
has just taken place in Sosslambek.
Bokayeff Is the bridegroom’s name,
and Neshkho that of the girl of sweet
sixteen who had the misfortune to find
favor in his eyes. His pockets being
empty he persuaded three comrades to
kidnap the maid, whom he then took
off to another village as his wife.
But her father, on discovering her
whereabouts, had her sent back by the
police, and then demanded $150 for
loss of her services, as we should say.
Bokayeff, to whom the demand was
made, would not or could not pay. The
girl’s father thereupon claimed that
sum from the bridegroom’s com
panions, who are equally liable. They
admitted the justice of his claim and
called up Bokayeff to hand over the
sum to them. On his refusal they shot
him dead, that being the custom of the
country, although daggers are also al
lowed to take the place of bullets.
| DEACON HAD NO USE i
I FOR THE TURKISH BATH j
The two young men had induced the
deacon to take his first Turkish bath.
They had got him properly attired, or,
rather, ui\attired, and had conducted
him into the hot room.
The deacon didn't enjoy it, but he
was game. He rolled around nervous
ly on his cot, and every time he moved
he seemed to strike a hotter spot. But
he stood it like a man until the per
spiration made rivulets innumerable in
running off him. Then he lifted him
self up on his elbow and said plaint
tlvely:
“Let's get out of this.”
But the young men only laughed and
told him to keep quiet; that it was just
getting comfortable.
When he finally absolutely refused
to stand it any longer they led him
Into the steam room and sat down to
gossip and enjoy his discomfiture, as
he felt himself slowly boiling away.
♦»««»«»■«»»«»«»»»»»>
And the deacon seemed inclined to
lose his temper. It was aggravating
to be so extremely uncomfortable
when they apparently were enjoying
themselves, and would offer him no
means of escape that would, to say the
least, be dignified.
But there was an end of it; he got
out; and as he looked “more in sorrow
than in anger” from one to the other
of them, one asked:
“Well, ^eacon, what do you think of
it?”
The deacon replied solemnly, and
with all due dignity, but rather point
I edly:
'It's a good thing, young man; It’s
a remarkably convenient thing for
some people who need to suitably pre
pare themselves for the'hereafter, b it
for my part I am glad to get on earth
again."

Russell Sage's Brick.
Russell Sage boarded a Sixth avenue
elevated train at Rector street one day
last week. He carried under one arm
a sample brick wraped in a news
paper. It was one that the builder of
the Emma Willard seminary had
taken to the financier's office. Re
pairs to Mr. Sage’s hall are to be made
and Mr. Sage wanted to see the brick
that Is to be used. It was worth per
haps 2 cents. At Twenty-eighth street
a sporty looking youth, who evidently
knew the great man, reached down,
seized the brick, dashed to the door,
was down stairs and away before Mr.
Sage, much annoyed, could get to
the door and breathlessly explain to
the guard what had happened. “I felt
sorry for him,” said the latter, when
he told of the experience. "He looked
real sad at losing that bric.t, but I'd
have given a dollar to have seen the
face of the other fellow when he cut
the string. ’
A Good Story.
Frederika, la., July 13th.—Mr. A. S.
Grover of this place tells an interest
ing story showing how sick people
may regain their health if they will
only be guided by the experience of
others. He says:
"I had a very bad ease of Kidney
Trouble, which affected my urinary
organs so that I had to get up every
hour of the night. 1 could not retain
my urine and my feet and limbs began
to bloat up. My weight was quickly
running down.
“After I had tried many things in
vain, I began to use Dodd's Kidney
Pills, a medicine which had cured
some other very bad cases.
"This remedy has done wonders for
me. I have gained eight pounds in j
two months. The bloat has all gone
from my feet and legs, and I don’t
have to get up at night. I took in all j
about ten boxes before I was all
sound.”
Those who suffer as did Mr. Gro

Dodd’s Kidney Pills, for they are a
sure, safe and permanent cure for all
