To all such people Dr. Hartman's
remedy, Peruna, comes as a great
boon. Not only Is it more successful
In curing catarrh than the treatment
ot the catarrh specialists, but It is
within the reach of every person la
this land. Peruna caa be bought at
any drug store, and is a remedy
without equal for catarrh la all
forms, coughs, colds, bronchitis, con

Peruna Is not a guess, nor an ex

In a modest house on South State
street, Syracuse, N. T., lives an aged
widow, who was born within sight ot
the windows of Kensington palace, on
the same day and almost at the same
hour that Queen Victoria first saw the
light She is Mrs. Charlotte Padgham,
and by her survival of England's
queen her lifelong wish has been grat
ified. Mrs. Padgham's maiden name was
Charlotte Carpenter, and she was bom
in the parish or St Margaret's, West
minster, liar 24, 1819 ' Her father was
a well-to-do farmer. According to
English law all births are required to

Ing circumstances of events occurring
In the vicinity of the great English
palace. In those daya the Duke or
Kent was far from being in affluent
circumstances and the family lived in
a very modest way. The little Prin
ces Victoria was kept in ignorance of
the fact that she would one day be
queen until she was 12 years old. She
recalls vividly the night that William
III. died. The villagers stood In the
streets during the night and , in the
morning when It was announced that
Alexandrlna Victoria, daughter of the
Duchess of Kent, had been made Queen
of the United Kingdom, tbe town was
shaken with cheer and "God Save the
Queen" rang out for the Drat time.
Mr. Padgham often saw Prince Al
bert, who married the queen, and she
describe him as a man who w&s much
beloved by the common people. It was
the prince consort's habit, while stay
ing at Kensington, to roam through
the village, stopping here and there
to chat with the farmers and trades
people. Mrs. Padgham came to this
country soon after the queen's mar
riage. TRADE OF EATING.

GOOD COLOR WORK.
CfclMras Lmn Csto as TWj lmma BSisst
' sad tleveet.
The amount of time devoted to work
with color varies somewhat as too
course of study varies la subject la
tbe spring and fall wo do a largo
amount of work directly from nature.
We begin with the landscape, we take
landscape la ths middle and we end
with landscape. W draw la color
from flowers and fruits, from bright
foliage, seed berries, etc.; wo watch the
sunset and the sunrise, the stay of
color in various forms ot water in
cloud, in lake, In river, In rainbow aad
in dewdrop; we are Interested, la the
cold and somber burs ot winter; as well
as In the frcshne.-s end vlvldnisi of ths
green of returning spriug and we re
cord these observations and impres
sions as they come to us, no matter
what tbe season or the proportion of
time consumed by so doing. As an
average, however, it I were obliged to
estimate, 1 should say that about half
of the time devoted to drawing work
had been used this year In the study of
color, perhaps more, as. we have doubt
less been carried to an extreme by the
novelty of the work and the fact that
in order to make a strong beginning
overemphasis was necessary under the
conditions in which we work. If I
were to answer in one statement the
question, Whtt is the value of s knowl
edge of the color to the child? I
should say: It helps him to be bap
pier, and being happy, be la good;
and being good, he Is a benefit snd a
blessing to his community and his
race. Children are emotional In their
thoughts and feelinga. Color appeala
directly to the emotions and feelings.
Good work In color Is so largely a
question ot fjellsi-if ws do not fe?!
tbe beauty of the landscape, we can
never adequately express it Children
love color, as naturally as they love
birds and uowc:s, kittens and puppies,
babies and playmates. There are phy
sical reasons, also, why tbe brush is
a better tool for children to use than
a pencil, or even a stick of dry color.
That medium Is best for them which
offers the least resistance, that af
fords tbe thinnest barrier between
themselves and their expression. They
think In mass, they. see in mas, they
should express In mass. An apple is
round to the young child, but after
it is red. How overwhelming has be?n
the response from the children as to
their delight In drawing with color!
It is right and natural for them to love
It and to use it It is unjust and
wicked to deprive them of a fuller ac
quaintance with It With the older
children, also, tbe study ot color has
been of Immense disciplinary value.
A much larger percentage of tbe pupils
have been greatly interested in color
than hare been interested in any other
one study in the entire course. School

DEATH OF A VETERAN IRON

There passed away in Allegheny, Pa.,
the other day, a man whose career ha
embraced an epitome of the develop

this extraordinary old man was that
he puddled tbe iron for tbe first T-rail.
This great Innovation in Iron manu
facturing waa produced in 1831, at the

John Guest and Rev. Thomas Guest -
Mr. James was born In Wales In
1813. At tbe age of 7 fie began work
in tbe Iron mill, ' sweeping plates.
Young James was later placed In charge
of a furnace, and was not yet 19 when
he assisted In making the nrst T-raii.

Late Count
Gourko
Field Marshal Count Gourko of Rus
sia died on bis estate at Scharow,
Tver, a few days ago.
"Such good steel as this Is St for a
ssaa of such iron will," was the In
scription on ths sword presented to
General Oourko by officers of the
guards after the Russo-Turklsh war, la
which he won distinction.
Bora la 1828, Joseph Vassllyeviea
Gourko became an imperial page when
fifteen years old. After serving In the
imperial body guard under Emperor
Nicholas I. and attracting attention by
gallantry In the Crimea, he became a
captain In 1857, colonel In 1861. took
command of the fourth regiment of
Hussar in 1868 and was promoted to
major general In 1867.
It was In the Ruiso-Turklab war of
1877 that dogged perseverance, com
bined with brilliant dash, placed him
In the front rank of European soldier.
Twice within six months, In the heat
of summer and again In furious De
cember snows, he penetrated the Bal?
kans. which the Turks had declared
Impassable. On the first occasion he
compelled the withdrawal of a numer
ically superior body of tbe enemy, who
for ten days besieged his intrenched
position in the Shlpka Pass.
Commanding tbe cavalry of Prince
Charles of Roumania, he covered the
army besieging Plevna and beat oft the
Htrong force with which Mahomet All
Pacha sought to relieve that fortress.
His successes won him the rank of
field marshal, the title cf csuat ssd the
civil and military command ot Poland,
besides other honors and pensions.
St-ongly believing in approximating
conditions in peace meanoeuvres to
those of actual war, he seriously ad
vocated the distribution of one full
with every nine blank cartridges. He
argued that such "accidents" as might
occur would be tar outweighed by tbe
advantage of accustoming the men to

In many case to late houts and eve

writer says that sleep, if taken at the
right moment will prevent an attack
ot nervous headache. If the subjects
of such headaches will watch the
symptoms of Its coming, they can
notice that it begins with a feeling ot
wearlnesi or heaviness. This Is the
time a sleep of an hour, or even two,
as nature guides, will effectually pre

be too late, for after the attack is fair

It Is so common In these days for doc

waked to take medicines if they are
asleep, when the hour comes round,
that people have learned tbe lesson
pretty well, and they generally know
that sleep Is better for the sick than
medicine. But It Is not so well known
that aleep Is a wonderful prevention of
disease, better than tonic regulator
