In a recent letter from 2 Grant are*
nue, Denver, Colo., this prominent lady
says:
••Some years ago my husband
suffered from nervous prostration
and advising with a friendly drug- J
gist he brought home a bottle of J
Peruna. His health was restored j
from its use, his appetite was in- J
creased and restful sleep came to ,
him. I therefore heartily endorse
Peruna, as an honest remedy
worthy the good things which arc
said of it. ”—Ida L. Gregory.
Nervous prostration is so frequently
associated with systemic catarrh that
some doctors do not distinguish between
the two. In systemic catarrh the dis
ease has pervaded the whole system and
there is a constant loss of vital fluids
from the mucous membranes.
A great many people are doctoring for
nervous prostration who would be im
mediately cured by a course of Peruna.
Peruna makes clean, healthy mucous
membranes. By this preservation of the
fluids the weakening drain of their j
discharge is prevented.
The medical profession is just begin
ning to awaken to the fact that chronic
catarrh.especially systemic catarrh,will
soon produce a condition so nearly re
sembling nervous prostration that it is
very difficult to tell one from the other.
Peruna cures these cases without
fail.
If you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad
vice gratis.

Ludicrous Tales Told
of the Sargasso Sea.
Probably no portion of the globe’s
urface has afforded a richer field for
be imaginative writer than the Sar
aseo sea. that portion of the Atlantic
cean lying between 16 and 38 degrees
iorfh latitude and 30 and 50 degreed
vest longitude.
During the recent Spanish-American
ear some of the newspaper reporters,
;ending their imaginations soaring
wildly over the Sargasso sea, met
,-tranger visions than did Milton in
’aradise or Dante in the depths of Ir»
erno. A Boston daily contained an
irtlcle anticipating the naval battle
.liat occurred at Santiago. The au
:hor, giving free rein to his fancy,
mid:
“The battle will be fought on the
jorthern edge of that strange and
mysterious part of the Atlantic called
the Sargasso sea. it is not generally
mown that within a week’s sail from
Sew York is a vast and trackless
Aaste, unexplored by the hardiest sail
ers, uncrossed by the stateliest ships,
i monster mass of floating debris,
consisting of growing seaweed, bloom
ng and blossoming plants, creeping
ind twining vines, a float island of
verdure almost as large as the state of
Texas, forming a solid barrier against
aavigation. . . . The Spanish com
mander will very likely use this mass
of floating sod to protect his flanks
md rear from attack.” It is incredl
ole that a paper would print such ludi
crous trash that the merest school
child would at once recognize as ut
terly false.
Another Boston daily copied from
:he Buffalo Commercial this most ab
surd account of a barque In passage
from Rosario to Philadelphia during
J-.
which It had "a strange experience in
the well known but seldom visited
and much dreaded Sargasso sea. . . .
Nineteen days were spent in a desper
ate battle with the floating seaweed
and profuse flora. . . . We were
actually driven back by Its force.
Some of the creepers w'ere at least
100 feet long, and they seized upon
the bowsprit, spars, davits and every
thing into which they could entangle
themselves.”
Any Child who ever saw the ocean
would naturally reason that it bears
on no part of Its surface ‘‘blooming
and blossoming plants." The Sargas
so sea differs in no wise from any oth
er part of the Atlantic, excepting that
It is so surrounded by currents that
the alga known as Sargassum bac
ciferum floats here in somewhat
greater quantities tnan elsewhere. It
is also a section of the ocean lying
without the range of constant trade
winds, bo that sailing vessels are
sometimes liable to become becalmed,
and one can well realize that a carpet
of seaweed upon the surface ol
the water, when there Is no
wind to fill the sails, will tend
to somewhat impede a ship's
progress. But ‘‘a solid barrier against
navigation” the slender seaweed is
not, for, notwithstanding the authorl
ties quoted, through the Sargasso sea
lies the southern passage from Europe
to America for sailing vessels in win
ter. An intimate acquaintance of the
writer, a worthy old sea captain, says
that in his numerous voyages across
that "unexplored, trackless waste” he
never could have experienced the dif
ficulties described unless ho had
sailed his vessel bottom upwards.
Spanish Bell Dug Up
on New Jersey Estate.
. ■, . . — — ■ —
One of the rarest curios in this city
Is an old Spanish bell which is in the
possession of Maurice H. Stratemeyer,
i well known dealer in musical instru
ments, at 31 Broad street, this city,
says the Newrark News. The hell was
dug up a few years ago on the estate
af Gov. Carteret, New Jersey’s first
zcrlonial executive, whose home was
an Pearl street, this city. The relic
was unearthed about six feet under
ground by some workmen who were
excavating for a building. It was
thickly covered wicn rust, and the
finder did not realize at the time the
value of his discovery. He took it
home, however, and Mr. Stratemeyer,
who is something of an antiquarian,
learned only some months ago of its
existence, and took steps to get pos
session of the ancient bell, which is
one of the oldest, if not the oldest, in
tae United States.
It is made of old brenze, said to be
worth $1 a pound. The bell is 13Vis
inches high, 11 inches in diameter at
its base and weighs 35 pounds. It is
minus the clapper. The part by
which it hangs is shaped like a crown,
while on Its side is raised decoration
resembling a fleur de lis. Around the
base is the following inscription:
• ‘‘Soiderancicodartiaga.’' This puzzled
not only Mr. Stratemeyer, but several
learned antiguarians who dropped into
his place to inspect the relic, and
none of whom could translate the in
scription. It remained for some Mexi
can officers who are connected with
the commission now supervising tho
construction of two gun beats for the
republic at Lewis Nixon’s shipyard tc
tell what it meant.
They said that the inscription was
"Soy de, Rancisco Dartiaga," mean
ing "I am of (or was made by) Fran
cisco Dartiaga.’’
They all agreed the bell was of for
eign make and was over 400 years
eld. How much more they would not
venture to guess.
It is more than probable that the
relic was brought into this country on
one of Cartarct's ships. The Eliza
beth river, then a wide and navigable
stream for nearly a mile beyond wher6
the bell was found, flowed alongside
the Cartarct estate, while "Paradise
Farm,” the ancient homestead of thg
Hetfield family, adjoins the spot
where it was discovered.
The happiness of God is not meas
ured by the misery of man.
Remarkable Story of
a Vegetarian Cat.
H___— ... —
The vegetarian cat owned by Tom
my Magruder of Newark is in clover
just now. Everything on the little
Belleville avenue farm, where the cat
and Tommy both live, is at its best
and the cat does not miss much that
is ripening except the bell peppers,
tomatoes and celery. These she does
not like, but eats lettuce, cabbage and
green corn, raw, with avidity, says
the New York Sun.
She prefers her corn husked, but
will husk it herself in a rough way if
it is left where she can get at it.
"Woozy,” as the boys call her, has
never been known to climb a corn
stalk to get an ear, but she is seen
every day nipping parsley and lettuce,
and a few days ago she was caught
eating into a growing cabbage. Suc
cotash is one of her favorite dishes,
but she is fond of cooked string beans,
warm or cold.
Boiled sweet or white potatoes suil
Woozy’s peculiar taste at any tim*
and she also likes the latter fried of
creamed. But she is wasteful in eat
ing raw green corn from the cob.
She will strip one cob completely,
scattering a great deal of the cort
over the ground, and will take slj
nips out of three or four other ear*
meanwhile.
Woozy is a greatgrandmother and
her progeny never has shown any de
sire for a vegetable diet. One of hel
children showed a morbid desire fot
ice and ice cream and was fond oi
clams and oysters, and all but Woozy
have shown the usual cat’s craze fof
crabs, lobsters and fish. Woozy will
let the fish go and tackle a plate ol
cold corn chowder in preference. Sh*
eats beef or mutton, nut daintily, and
she will leave coin meat for cold
boiled onions at any time.
HOLY TO THREE RELIGIONS.
Palestine Is Sacred to Christian, Jew
and Mohammedan.
We are accustomed to consider
Palestine only as the Promised Land
of the Jewish race, and the scene of
the most sacred events in human his
tory—the birth and burial place, the
home, the place of the crucifixion and
the resurrection of the Redeemer.
We forget that it is also a Holy Land
for the adherents of another religion,
who outnumber the Christians and
the Jews combined, and are without
doubt the most numerous, the most
devout and the most fanatical of all
religious believers. The Mohamme
dans number not less than 400,000,
000 and perhaps 500,000,000. A large
portion of them trace their ancestry
to Esau and Ishmael, as the Jews
trace theirs to Jacob, and are equally
attached to the scenes of Old Testa
ment history. The tomb of Abraham,
the well of Jacob, the River Jordan
and the site of the temple are as
precious and sacred to the one as
to the other. The Mohammedan
cares nothing for the sultan except
as the successoi of Mahomet, the
visible head of the church, but hli
religion is a live, tangible and essen
tial thing which influences and often
controls his movements as well at
his emotions. No other faith, nc
other race, are so dependent upon
prayer and worship. No other is sc
scrupulous in the observance of tht
teachings of his Bible and his priests
or in the observance of his religiouf
duties and vows.
Bladder-Skin Balloons.
A full-sized war balloon, with all its
fittings, costs nearly $5,000. Tht
j bladders of about 74,000 dead oxen
are used to make a medium-sized bal
! loon. A bladder-skin balloon is fat
j superior to a silk one. Rents in a
skin balloon close almost automatic
ally, and the leakage is of the slight
est.
Paper Coal in Germany.
Paper coal is a form of lignite found
near Bonn, Germany. It splits natur
ally in films as thin as paper.
Nothing in the world can exceed
the utter loyalty with which a voraar
respects the confidence of a man foi
whom she has a genuine liking.
Mrs. Emma E. Felch, Treasurer rond
du Lac, VVis., Social Economic Club, Tells
H ow She was Cured of Irregular and Pain
ful Menstruation by Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound.
“Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—I have used Lydia E. rinkham’s
Vegetable Compound for irregular and painful menstruation, and
was entirely cured after using two bottles. I can truly say it is a
boon to suffering women, and I would recommend all suffering from
the above troubles to try a few bottles and be cured. Very thank
fully yours, Emma E. Felch, Division St., Fond du Lac, Wis.”
05000 FORFEIT IF THE ABOVE LETTER IS NOT GENUINE.
When women are troubled with irregular, suppressed or painful
menstruation, weakness, leucorrheea, displacement or ulceration of tho
womb, that bearing-down feeling, inflammation of tho ovaries, backache,
bloating (or flatulence), general debility, indigestion, and nervous pros
tration, or are Itesofc with such symptoms as dizziness, faintness, lassitude,
excitability, irritability, nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, “all
gone” and “ want-to-be-left-alone ” feelings, blues and hopelessness,
they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles.
Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best.
No other medicine for female ills in the world has received
Bach widespread and unqualified endorsement.
Mrs. Pinkiiam invites all sick women to write her for advice.
She lias guided thousands to hculth. Address, Lynn, Mass.
