PRESBYTERIAN PASTOR PRAISES PE-RU-NA First Presbyterian Church of Greensboro, Ga., and Its Pastor and Elder. the day wan when men of promi nence hesitated to give their testimoni als to proprietary medicines for publi cation. This remains true today of most proprietary medicines. But Po runa has become so justly famous, its merits are known to so many people of high and low stations, that no one hesitates to see his name in print recommending Peruna. The highest men in our nation have given Peruna a strong endorsement. Mon representing all classes and sta tions are equally represented. A dignified representative of the Presbyterian church in the person of Rev. E. G. Smith does not hesitate to state publicly that he has used Peruna in his family and found it cured when other remedies failed. In this state ment the Rev. Smith is supported by an elder in his church. Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Pres byterian church of Greensboro, Ga., writes: "Having used Peruna in my family for some time it gives me pleasure to testify to its true worth. My little boy seven years of age had been suffering for some time with catarrh of the lower bowels. Other remedies had failed, but niter taking two bottles of Peruna the trouble almost entirely disappeared. For this special malady 1 consider it well nigh a specific. As a tonic for weak and worn out people it has few or no equals.”—Rev. E. G. Smith. Mr. M. J. Rossman.a prominent mer chant of Greensboro, Ga., and an elder in the Presbyterian church of that place, has used Peruna,and in a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., of Columbus, Ohio, writes as follows: "For a long time I was troubled with catarrh of the kidneys and tried many remedies, all of which gave me no relief. Peruna was recommended to me by several friends, and after using a few bottles I am pleased to say that the long looked for relief was found and I am now enjoying better health than I have for years, and can heartily recommend Peruna to all similarly af flicted. It is certainly a grand medi cine.”—M. J. Rossman. If you do not derive prompt and sat isfactory results from the uso of Po runa, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.

The corner stone of a million dollar state capitol for Arkansas was laid recently at Little Rock. A few days ago a contract was given out at Jack son, Miss,, for the building there of a new state capitol at a total cost of nearly a million. The present capitol and grounds at Jackson are of the es timated value of MOO,000 and the Lit tle Rock capitol and gounds of the value of only $200,000, Many of the older settled states have capitols which were built many years ago and were designed to meet conditions which near ly every state has since outgrown. T he capitol of Alabama at Montg >m ery represents an investment of only $50,000, that of Louisiana at Baton Rouge $250,000, the grounds bning In cluded in this estimate; that of Ken* tucky at Frankfort, the scene of the Goebel shooting, $500,000, grounds in cluded, and that of Maryland at An napolis, $200,000. There has been a general tendency to replace the old buildings by new and more costly structures,as is being done in Arkansas ami Mississippi. Tiius in Sacramento, the capital of California,the new build ings and grounds represent a total ex penditure of $3,000,000. Austin, Tex., has a $2,500,000 capitol. Pennsylvania J’.as at Harrisburg a $2,500,000 capitol. The little state of Rhode Island has at Providence a $3,000,000 capitol and the Iowa state capitoi at Lies Moines rep resents a total investment of $!,500,000 The Illinois capitol at Spingfleld rep resents a total Investment or $1,500,000 and the Nebraska capitol at Lincoln represents a cost of $750,000. The Wis consin capitol in the small town of Madison represents an investment of $1,000,000 and Michigan has at Lan sing at $1,500,000 capitol. In the small er cities of the country there are to be found usually the most expensive capitols, a circumstance which has given rise to the expression ‘‘the smaller the capital town, the more ex pensive the capitol building." Colo rado has a $2,500,000 capitol and Wash ington has completed one at Olympia costing $1,000,000.—New York Sun. he was a seer. Wigglesworth-* Accurate Cenmis Gue«* of Our Present Population. Edward Wigglesworth, “Hollis pro fessor of divinity at Cambridge.” in a little pamphlet published in the por tentous year of 1775 must have had a I correct idea of the prosperity of this country during the century just clos ing. as he predicted that the popula tion of the '‘British American colo nies” in lDOO would be 80,000,000. In cluded in this estimate was Nova Sco tia, now the Dominion of Canada, which, with its last recorded census result of 4,800,000 added to the 76,000, 000 of the United States, fulfills almost lo the letter the accuracy of the Wig glesworth prophecy. And this soma* what remarkable forecast was not bas ed upon any species of guesswork, hut upon a well defined and clearly con structed mathematical theory, which, reduced to plain words, can be best described In the language of its an thor: "The British Americans have doubled their numbers in every period of twenty-five years from their first plantation.” Taking this statistical fact as a basis for his calculations, the Harvard divinity professor constructed a system of reckoning the increase of a country's population, which history has shown to be as correct as his method was simple. Assuming that the 1775 population was 2,500,000, Mr. Wigglesworth estimated 5,000,00o’ for 1800, 10,000,000 for 1825, 20,000,000 for 1850. 40,000,000 for 1875, and 80,000,000 for 1890; and the record of the United States census, since its initial taking in 1790, shows substantially these fig ures as follows: Census of 1S00, 5, 308,000, 1825 (1820), 9,633,000; 1850, 23, 191,000; 1875 (1870), 38,658,000; 1900, with Canada, 81,000,000.—National Magazine. Prenrher Pnt Him to Sleep. Dean Ramsay, the witty Scottish di vine of the last century, used to tell a story about one of the earls of Lauder dale. His lordship was taken very ill, the worst symptom being insomnia in an aggravated form. His little son, hearing that recovery would be impos sible without sleep, said: “Send for the preaching mon frae Livingston, for fayther aye sleeps when that minister is in the pulpit.” The doctors consid ered that to act on the suggestion would be judicious, so the minister was immediately brought. He preach ed a sermon, sleep came on—and the earl recovered. Odd Decoration*. The Swedish ware to be found in tho shops which make a specialty of old pewter will probably be welcomed by tho house mistress in search of odd decorations for her dining room plate rack and mantel. These articles are of wood and wicker and picturesque in form and decoration. Baskets, bowls, pails, jugs, boxes and other articles for use and ornament are included in the list. The wooden drinking cups are deep and wide and encircled by stout hoops. Sometimes leather strips arc used in conjunction with the other ornamentation. Mushroom* n« a Vaccine. According to a paper recently com municated to tho Academic des Sci ences, Paris, M. Phisalix has found that some kinds of mushroom afford a "vaccine” against the venom of snakes. The juice of the mushroom renders a person immune against vipers for a month or two. _ Pride is the fog that surrounds in significance. Took tin* Oath on a Directory* The perfunctory manner in which witnesses are sworn in English courts was illustrated recently in a London court after some twenty witnonses had given their ovidence. It was then dis covered that all had solemnly sworn on and kissed a guide to the law of landlord and tenant. The mistake came to light only when a court offi cial saw that the supposed bibie was much more clean than usual, and, as a consequence, looked closely at the book.
