Ll/zio Anderson, or Kile. Pa., ag.-j
37, was married three times, and yet
was not legally separated from tiny
of her husbands. Death brought them
together, and they shook hands silent
ly over her coffin. She met and mar
tied Jesse Samson when but a young
girl, but eloped with Moses Arm
strong. Soon afterward she left him
and was wedded to Noah Anderson,
i he husbands were sworn enemies and
never spoke. No legal proceedings
were taken and the matter rifver got
into the courts. Then she got sick
and was thought to be dying. She ral
lied, but again had a relapse. She died
last week. Then it was that the three
men met at her coffin. Samson stretch
ed out his hand slowly, and they all
forgave.
A Cartoon Saved His I.ife.
Several weeks ago an abeess devel
oped in the stomach of William
Thorpe, a resident of Quantico, Md.
The growth so weakened him that
physicians feared to use the knife and
patient was slowly dying. A f< w days
ago he saw a Philadelphia paper in
which there was a cartoon making fun
of Senator Quay, of Pennsylvania.
Thorpe laughed and immediately a
stream of blood gushed from his
mouth. The doctor happened to cull
just then, and after examining Thorpe,
declared that the abeess had broken
and that the patient would now get
well.
A DOCTOR THIS TIME.
Portland, May 6th —Dr. E. A. Hose,
a practising physician, formerly of
Yates Center, Kans., was on what
everyone supposed was his death
bed. He had Diabetes, and six of
his brother doctors were in attend
ance and consultation at his bedside
They had done everything that medi
cal skill could suggest to save his life,
but they were at last reluctantly forced
to tell him that he must prepare for
death.
His aunt had been summoned to his
dying bedside. After the doctors had
given her nephew up, she insisted that
os a last resort, he be given a treat
ment of Dodd’s JCidnty Pills.
From the very first dose, .the tide
turned in his favor. His life was
saved, and he is hale aud hearty to
day.
This case and its cure has amazed
the physicians, and is the sensation ol
the hour. It is interesting to note
that while many others are being
cured this great discovery in medi
cine, the physicians themselves are
among the first to benefit, and that
while the simpler and more prevalent
forms, such as Rheumatism, Sciatica,
Bladder and Brinary Trouble and Fe
male Weakness disappear before it.,
the more malignant forms, such as
Bright's Disease. Diabetes and Dropsy,
which have always been regarded as
incurable, are yielding just as easily.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are fast super
ceding all other treatment for Kidney
Disease, and as nrariy all human sick
ness and suffering lias its origin in the
Kidneys, the use of this wonderful
medicine is becoming almost universal.

DOUGLAS FACTORY
To Be Enlarged Before ttie First of July.
Vv .11 .’lake 0.000 Fairs Daily.
Advertising pays.
\V. L. Douglas is going to increase
the capacity of his factory to G.000
pairs of shoe3 per day. The addition
will add 10,000 square foot of space for
manufacturing purposes. At the same
time a now 400 horse-power engine and
an additional 150 horse-power boiler
will be Installed, which will afford ade
quate power for the present and an
other addition to the factory, which
will no doubt be necessary later on.
When the factory starts up the first
of July it will be on an output of 500
dozen or C.COO pairs of shoos per day,
and the weekly pay roll, exclusive of
office help, superintendent, foremen,
etc., will be $22,000 per week. The
Douglas salesmen on the road are sell
ing 25 per cent more goods than last
season. The increased sales is the di
rect result of good shoemaking nnd ex
tensive advertising. The advertising
expenditure of Mr. Douglas is now
larger than at any period of his busi
ness, and this is to bo still further in
creased. Beginning this week half
page advertisements of the Douglas
shoe will appear in all the principal
newspapers of the large cities, as well
as such papers as the Youth's Compan
ion.—Brockton, Mass., Times.

WHERE UFE IS PRIMITIVE,
Hri4«* anti 4ar<»oui ll»«l N<*ver Nenn a
St<*ani Car.
Taere are plenty of places where life
I is very primitive. The Washington
j Star tells this story: “I witnessed a
! marriage the oilier day in which the
| bride and groom both live within fifty
i miles of Washington, yet neither has
j ever seen a steam or electric car,”
said a drummer to a Star reporter.
‘ You will no doubt be surprised when
I tell you there are hundredds of people
living over in Virginia who have
’never been to town.' Iiut to the mar
riage. During a recent trip one of
; the friends of the groom met me in
i a country store and cordially extended
an invitation to take a drive across
coimtry to witness the ‘hitchin’.’ I
very gladly availed myself of the op
j portunity, and we arrived at onr des
I tination in good time. The neighbor
hood was well represented, the male
contingent being congregated in the
barn, where a barrel of hard cider
was on tap. We were soon notified
that the ceremony was about to take
place, and we all filed into the 'best'
room. I shall never forget the ap
pearance of the contracting parties.
The groom was an undersized though
powerfully built young fellow. He was
dressed in a pair of jean overalls, a
stiff shirt, no collar, a fancy, old-time
vest, but no coat. The bride, who was
at least six feet in height, was dressed
in a calico wrapper, a piece of pink
ribbon around her neck, a little old
fashioned bonnet on her head, but
barefooted. After the ceremony the
happy couple received the congratu
lations of the assembled company, ev
ery man and woman present kissing
the bride. Pretty soon one of the
guests brought out a violin and danc
ing was indulged in the rest of the
| evening. When I expressed my sur
i prise that the bride should be bare
! footed I was told that there were lots
of women in that section that had nev
er known what it was to wear shoes."
FRESH-WATER SAILORS.
Tlictr Live* on the Great lake* Are
Full of Danger.
“If any man thinks the American
sailor is a thing of the past he should
J spend a while on the great lakes,”
j said C. F. Bailey of Duluth, Minn.
S “The American fresh-water sailor is
every bit as picturesque a personag*
as was the 'salt' of early days, who
carried our merchant dug into every
| port of the world. His life is just as
j full of hardship and just as full of
dangers,” quotes the Washington Post.
“There is a large fleet of three and
four masted schooners on the lakes,
and stories of the wrecking of them
; come with every big storm. A nastier
body of water than Lake Erie when it
I comes on to blow can be found no
; where and some of the experiences of
i the life-saving crews along its shores
j are the most thrilling in the history
of the service. The men who take the
big steamers, of course, have not much
of romance in their lives, but there are
enough of the old sailing vessels left
to keep a considerable army of men
employed. Any skipper who can nav
igate a schooner from Duluth to Buf
; falo is a good enough sailor to sail
' around the world and he will do as
well as the next man to take care of
his vessel in the roughest sea the At

Effect of Altltnilo on the Hlootl.
The effect of altitude on the blood
has been studied in New Mexico with
| interesting and perhaps valuable re
j suits. Dr. Maltby undertook the work
! at the suggestion of the director of
' the biological laboratory of the Uni
| versify of New Mexico, and the study.
, interrupted for a time by the death
| of Dr. Maltby, has been continued by
Prof. Weinzel. It was found, a cor
respondent of the Denver Republica i
repoKs, that the blood corpuscles are
greatly increased when a person from
a low altitude reaches a higher one, bu
this effect, with the powerful stimulus
i involved, is only transitory. Observa
tions showed that while persons who
i have long resided in New Mexico have
no more corpuscles than others in
lower regions, these same persons may
renew or repeat the original effect of
altitude by a sort residence at the sea
level or elsewhere. What amounts to
the same thing is the fact that one
by residing at 4,000 or 5,000 feet may
secure all the powerful stimulating ef
fect of the altitude on the blood by
periodical visits to the altitude of San
ta Fe or Magdalena, 2,000 lect higher.
In these cases the effect Is greatly in
creased by out-of-door life and exer
cise, because there is an intimate re
lation between the activity of the lungs
and this blood stimulation, it was also
found that rabbits kept In confinement
would show the same increase on be
j ing carried from Albuquerque to Camp
! Whitcomb. It is thought that the re
j suit of the inquiry may have an im
portant bearing on the treatment o!
consumption.—New York Post.
Salt Water Fifth.
The number of species of fishes liv
ing habitually in the salt waters of
the world can only be approximately
estimated, probably about ten thou
sand. Those classed as “shore fishes”
live, as a rule, close to the surface
and near the land, anil are well known
to tlie salt water angler in his outings
as the weak fish, striped baits, kingflsh,
etc. Of the shore fishes there are about
four thousand species. The “pelagic
j fishes,” or those which inhabit the up
I per waters of the seas, are relatively
few in number. The “deep-sea fishes,”
| which live in depths varying from two
! hundred fathoms to twenty-five hun
i dred fathoms, cannot be even approxi
j mutely estimated, as new species arc
j being constantly discovered.—Field

Disregard for the law against ex

to arrest any person found violating

Letters in the English journals of

Hon. S. S. Matthews, ex-United States Marshal of Mississippi, in a recent

Hazelhurst, Miss., says:
\
•• / am happy to say that I am cured of catarrh and need ro more
attention from you. It is a great satisfaction that I am able to write
you that Peruna has in my case done ell that you claim, and that
I will need no more medicine."

Hon. B. B. Doviner, Congressman
from West Virginia, in a letter from
Washington, D. C., to The Peruna Med
icine Co., says the following of their
catarrh remedy, Peruna:
“I join with my colleagues in the
House of Representatives in recom
mending your excellent remedy, Pe
runa, as a good tonic and also an ef
fective cure for catarrh.”
Mrs. Mary C. ^'entress writes from
Paradise, Tex., the following: "I
think I can say that your good advlc*
and medicine has cured me of chronlo
catarrh. I have had no pains in my
head since 1 have taken Peruna. I
have been in bad health ever sine*
'59, and have taken a good many med
icines which were only of temporary
relief. Peruna is the catarrh cure. Th*
Peruna stopped my catarrh of the head
so that it did not become chronic, and
1 am very thankful for Dr. Hartman’*
advice and medicine.”
Peruna is a specific for all catarrhal
diseases. It acts quickly and bene
ficially upon the inflamed mucou*
membrane, thus removing the cause of
j catarrh.
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located.
Catarrh is essentially the same every

tarrh in one situation will cure it In
all situations.
